Abstract
A particularly simple and compact attachment device to be interposed between an aircraft engine casing (C) and a strut connected to the wing or fuselage of an aircraft, is designed so as to only transmit forces exerted in a single direction (OZ). The device comprises a crossbar (18), articulated to an element (10) fixed to the strut and also fulfilling an emergency function. The ends of the crossbar (18) are connected to the engine casing (C) by rods (24). The element (10) is preferably formed from two parts (10a, 10b), each being able to transmit all the forces in the direction (OZ).
