Abstract
A main landing gear with swing-bar and lateral lifting for aircraft. Two undercarriages are provided which are positioned symmetrically on either side of the longitudinal plane of symmetry of the aircraft, each one having a leg 1 articulated around a lifting axis 5, and a swing bar 16 around a transverse axis 18. The swing bar 16 carries a wheel 21 pivotally mounted around an axis of rotation 19. The maneuvering of the undercarriage and the bracing thereof are insured by a bracing jack 13, and the deflections of swing-bar 16 are damped by a shock absorber 10. The leg 1 of the undercarriage has a first plane of symmetry (X,X) perpendicular to the lifting axis 5 and the longitudinal plane of symmetry of the aircraft and the swing-bar 16 has a second plane of symmetry (Y,Y) defined by the transverse axis 18 of the axis of rotation 19.
