Planet-carrier for a mechanical reduction gear of an aircraft turbine engine
A planet-carrier for a mechanical reduction gear of a turbine engine, in particular of an aircraft, this planet-carrier having a rotation axis and comprising axes for guiding the planet gears that are arranged around and parallel with the rotation axis, each guiding axis having a general tubular shape of which the outer periphery comprises only two coaxial and adjacent cylindrical tracks of the respective rollers of two annular rows of rollers, wherein each axis has an inner periphery that is substantially bi-conical and comprising two coaxial and adjacent frustoconical surfaces, these inner frustoconical surfaces converging towards one another and extending respectively radially inside the tracks.
1. A planet-carrier for a mechanical reduction gear of a turbine engine, the planet-carrier having a rotation axis and comprising axes for guiding the planet gears that are arranged around and parallel with the rotation axis, each said guiding axis having a general tubular shape of which the outer periphery comprises only two coaxial and adjacent cylindrical tracks of the respective rollers of two annular rows of rollers, wherein each said axis has an inner periphery that is substantially bi-conical and comprises two coaxial and adjacent frustoconical surfaces, these inner frustoconical surfaces converging towards one another and extending respectively radially inside said tracks.
2. The planet-carrier according to claim 1 , wherein the frustoconical surfaces are connected directly to one another by the smallest diameter ends thereof.
3. The planet-carrier according to claim 1 , wherein the frustoconical surfaces are connected to one another by an inner cylindrical surface comprising a radially internal annular flange.
4. The planet-carrier according to claim 1 , wherein the greatest diameter end of each of the frustoconical surfaces is connected to an inner cylindrical surface.
5. The planet-carrier according to claim 1 , wherein each of said axes comprises radial through-orifices for the passage of oil opening on said frustoconical surfaces.
6. The planet-carrier according to claim 1 , wherein said orifices open onto the tops of radially external annular ribs provided at the outer periphery of each of said axes and delimiting between themselves said tracks.
7. The planet-carrier according to claim 1 , wherein said frustoconical surfaces have substantially the same length along said rotation axis and substantially the same cone angle.
8. The planet-carrier according to claim 1 , wherein said frustoconical surfaces each have a cone angle ranging from 10 to 50°.
9. The planet-carrier according to claim 1 , wherein the lubricating and cooling core is mounted inside each of said guiding axes so as to cover at least said frustoconical surfaces.
10. The planet-carrier according to claim 1 , wherein said frustoconical surfaces each have a cone angle ranging from 20 to 40°.
11. A turbine engine comprising a mechanical reduction gear equipped with a planet-carrier according to claim 1 .
