Abstract
An aeroengine control device comprising a mount, having pivotally mounted thereon a code wheel together with a main lever and a secondary lever, both for turning the code wheel, each lever being movable between a rest position and a maximum actuation position, the secondary lever being mounted to pivot on the main lever. A connecting rod connects the secondary lever in permanent manner to the code wheel and the main lever is provided with a connection member arranged to co-operate with a portion in relief secured to the code wheel and with a portion in relief secured to the mount in such a manner that the connection member attaches to the code wheel when the main lever is moved while the secondary lever is in its rest position and attaches to the mount, thereby releasing the code wheel to turn, when the secondary lever is moved while the main lever is in its rest position, while movement of either lever is prevented when the other lever is away from its rest position.
