Abstract

The invention relates to a device (9) for taking up thrust forces for an aircraft engine pylon, which includes safety means, associated with each of the two lateral link rods (90) for taking up forces and equipped with first end-stop means (108) fitted to the link rod, as well as second end-stop means (112) fitted to the spreader bar (91), where these end-stop means, once they have come into contact as a result of relative rotation between the spreader bar and the link rod around the axis (93) of a link rod pivot mechanism (92) and in a given direction of rotation, are used to stop the said relative rotation in the given direction of rotation.
