Assembly for an aircraft comprising a primary structure for an attachment pylon secured to a wing box by means of fittings that are more compact in the leading edge region

1. An assembly for an aircraft comprising:

an aircraft wing comprising a wing box formed in part with a front wing spar, an upper suction-side skin and a lower pressure-side skin;

an engine attachment pylon arranged under the wing, the pylon comprising a primary structure formed as a pylon box having an upper spar extending, at least in part, under the wing box, and

two lateral front fittings configured to secure the primary structure of the attachment pylon to the wing box, each of these fittings comprising:

a first connecting portion secured to the front wing spar via first securing elements;

a second connecting portion secured to the primary structure of the attachment pylon;

at least one securing member articulated to each of the first and second connecting portions about articulation pins orthogonal to a plane of the front wing spar,

the first connecting portions of the two lateral front fittings being made in one piece in a single wing connector extending over essentially an entire height of the front wing spar, the single wing connector also comprising an upper connector portion and a lower connector portion that each connect the two first connecting portions, the upper connector portion being secured by second securing elements to the front wing spar and to the upper suction-side skin, and the lower connector portion being secured by third securing elements to the front wing spar and to the lower pressure-side skin,

further comprising a central front fitting configured to react load exerted in a transverse direction of the assembly and in a longitudinal direction, said central front fitting comprising a shear pin,

wherein each first connecting portion comprises a sole extending parallel to a lateral edge of said at least one associated securing member, said sole being configured to prevent said at least one securing member from rotating upon a failure occurring at said central front fitting.

2. The assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said single wing connector defines an opening around which the two first connecting portions and the lower and upper connector portions are arranged.

3. The assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said single wing connector has a trapezoidal overall shape, a larger base of which is arranged uppermost.

4. The assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the two second connecting portions are made in one piece in an interior transverse reinforcing rib of the pylon box, the two second connecting portions projecting out of the pylon box and penetrating in part into a leading edge region of the wing.

5. The assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said at least one securing member is formed by at least one shackle extending parallel to its associated first connecting portion.

6. The assembly as claimed in claim 1 , which comprises at least one system or piece of equipment arranged in a leading edge region of the wing, in front of the lateral front fittings.

7. The assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each of the lateral front fittings is configured to allow load exerted in a vertical direction of the assembly to be reacted.

8. The assembly as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a rear fitting secured to a rear closing rib of the pylon box.

9. The assembly as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the rear fitting is configured to allow load exerted in a vertical direction of the assembly and in a transverse direction of the assembly to be reacted.

10. The assembly as claimed in claim 8 , wherein said front and rear fittings form a statically determinate load-reacting system.

11. An aircraft comprising at least one assembly as claimed in claim 1 .
