Abstract
An arrangement of bearing supports for a rotating shaft mounted on bearings connected to an engine stator structure by bearing supports of which at least one is made up of N>1 elements effectively acting in parallel to simultaneously connect the bearing to the structure, of which N−1 of the N elements form this connection by fusible links, is made up of a first bearing supported by a first bearing support and a second bearing supported by a second bearing support, that of the two bearing supports which makes up the N>1 elements being the second bearing support.
