Abstract
A device for coupling an actuator for operating an aircraft undercarriage to an aircraft structure. The device comprises a lever having a first end for hinging to the structure of the aircraft, and a second end to which the actuator is hinged, a pre-loading structure acting on the lever to urge it towards a stable rest position that is occupied by the lever in the absence of any force transiting through the actuator; and an abutment structure defining at least one working position for the lever when the actuator is activated.
