Abstract
A device for controlling pitch of fan blades of a turboprop including at least one set of adjustable-pitch fan blades secured to rotate with a rotary ring centered on the longitudinal axis, and mechanically connected to a turbine rotor, each blade of the set being coupled for pitch adjustment to a synchronization ring centered on the longitudinal axis. An actuator is secured to rotate with the turbine rotor and is mechanically connected to the synchronization ring by a plurality of connection arms connected to the actuator rod and hinge-mounted on the synchronization ring such that actuating the actuator causes the synchronization ring to move in turning about the longitudinal axis.
