Abstract

An aircraft engine assembly includes a dual-flow turbine engine, a pylon for mounting the turbine engine, thrust-absorbing rods connecting the turbine engine to the pylon, and an inter-flow compartment housing a lubricant tank. In order to facilitate the filling of the tank, a lubricant supply path is fluidly connected to the tank, this path passing through an inner hollow region of at least one of the two thrust-absorbing rods.
