Abstract
A turbine engine in which an air flow circulates from upstream to downstream, or for an aircraft, including a rotary shaft extending axially and a de-oiling tube mounted to be rigidly connected to and on the inside of the shaft by an upstream fixing mechanism including: a first inner dog clutch extending on an inside from the shaft, a second dog clutch extending on an outside from the de-oiling tube, which is longitudinally aligned with the first dog clutch and positioned downstream of the first dog clutch, and an anti-rotation longitudinal locking latch extending between the rotary shaft and the de-oiling tube to prohibit rotation of the second dog clutch of the de-oiling tube relative to the first dog clutch of the rotary shaft.
