Abstract
The invention relates to a device for the protection of a probe joined to a wall of an aircraft. Detachable means for fastening to the wall of the protection device are sensitive to a modification of a temperature of the probe. For example, the fastening means are made of a shape memory material. A rise in temperature enables a deformation of the fastener means and a separation of the device from the wall. It is also possible to make the fastener means out of magnetostrictive or polarizable material in order to separate the protection device when the fastener means are subjected to a magnetic field. Thus, the fastener means may comprise a polarizable pin that withdraws from a housing made on a through-hole unit when it is subjected to the magnetic field generated by an electromagnet.
