Screw and nut fastening device

1. A device for fastening two parts together, the device comprising:

fastening screws having heads, the fastening screws extending along aligned passages in the two parts,

a removable element having a first wall configured to fit between said two parts, said first wall defining recesses of a shape complementary to that of said heads so that, when said first wall is between said two parts, each of said heads engages in a corresponding recess of said first wall of said removable element and is prevented by said first wall from rotating inside said corresponding recess relative to said removable part,

wherein said removable element has a second wall, wherein a portion of one of said two parts engages between said first and second walls of said removable element such that said removable element is prevented from turning relative to said one of said two parts when said removable element is between said two parts, and

wherein the removable element is removable from the screw heads after the nuts have been tightened on the screws such that said removable element is not between said two parts when said two parts are fastened to each other by said screws and nuts.

2. The device according to claim 1 wherein the removable element comprises means cooperating by abutment against a portion of said one of said two parts for preventing rotation of the screw heads relative to said first part.

3. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the removable element is prevented from rotating by engaging on at least two adjacent fastening screws.

4. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the recesses are of a U-shape complementary to the screw heads to be prevented from rotating.

5. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the removable element is of L-shape section, having one limb forming a rim and including at least one recess for engagement on a screw head, and having another limb forming an abutment against said one of said two parts when said heads are engaged in said recesses.

6. The device according to claim 5 , wherein the abutment-forming limb also forms means for preventing the removable element from moving in translation.

7. The device according to claim 5 , wherein the recesses open out firstly into an end surface of the rim remote from the abutment-forming limb, and secondly in a side surface of the rim in its side facing towards the abutment-forming limb.

8. The device according to claim 5 , wherein the recesses are closed beside a side surface of the rim that faces away from the limb forming a positioning abutment, so as to form an axial abutment for the screw heads.

9. The device according to claim 1 , wherein each recess is a notch passing through the removable element along an axis parallel to an axis of the respective fastening screw.

10. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the removable element is engaged on said heads by being moved in translation perpendicularly to axes of the fastening screws.

11. The device according to claim 1 , wherein the two parts are annular parts.

12. The device according to claim 11 , wherein at least one of the two annular parts is a rotor disk.

13. The device according to claim 11 , comprising a plurality of independent removable elements distributed around a circumference.

14. The device according to claim 1 , wherein said recesses of said first wall of said removable element are closed recesses with an abutment such that, when said first wall is between said two parts, each of said heads engaged in said corresponding recess is prevented by said abutment from moving in an axial direction along said aligned passages during tightening or loosening of nuts on the screws.
