Abstract
A hydraulic device for the individual control of the pitch of a helicopter rotor blade by a rotary hydraulic jack, the stator vanes of which are integral with a sleeve fitted on the hub. The jack rotor carries rotor vanes movable relative to the stator vanes and delimiting with these chambers of variable volume fed by a servo-distributor controlled as a function of pilot signals and signals from a detector of the angular position of the blade about its pitch axis. The jack is integrated in a pitch bearing and in an elastic ball joint integrated in a rotary hydroelastic shock absorber with vanes for lamination of a viscous fluid. The shock-absorber rotor is connected rigidly in terms of rotation about the pitch axis to the rotor of the jack and is connected to the blade by a rigid cuff.
