Abstract
The invention provides an integrated hub-mast with a single piece tubular body which supports, by its hub body part (3), a reinforcing girdle (6) on each side of which openings (10, 11) are formed. For each blade of the rotor a retaining and pivoting member (13), formed preferably by a spherical stratified stop, is fixed to the girdle (6) and is retained in the hub body (3), and this member (13) is also fixed between the ends inside the hub body (3), of the lower (20) and upper (21) branches of a forked fastening part (19) connecting the blade to this member (13), these branches passing through the openings (10, 11) of a corresponding pair of openings. A heel (23) fixed under the lower branch (20) bears against a reciprocal ring (24) mounted on a support (29) in the hub-mast (1), which has external fastenings for coupling to resilient return and drag damping members of the blades.
