The particle trap (15) that extends behind an elbow in the air flow stream (6) in a turbo-prop engine is delimited at the back by an end plate (12) to which intake housing suspension rods (10) supporting the front of the rotating shaft (2), are fastened. It is divided by suspension arms (11) which may be drilled (21) to restore the continuity of the annular chamber forming the trap. Therefore the intake housing suspension device extends through the trap. This type of trap makes use of the inertia of solid bodies carried by the air drawn in, and which could damage the engine blades, and to collect them.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A particle trap (15) integrated in a turbo-prop engine intake housing, the housing being suspended from a surrounding structure (9) by suspension devices (10) supporting a rotor (2) through a reduction gear, the trap being in the form of an annular chamber opening forwards onto an air flow stream (6) that changes direction in front of the trap (15), characterized in that it is delimited towards the back by a circular end plate (12) supporting means (13) connecting the suspension devices (10), in that the chamber is divided by suspension arms (11) that project forwards and towards an axis of the rotor (2) from the end plate (12) facing the connection means and suspension devices, as far as a reduction housing (1) supporting the rotor (2), and which is delimited on the outside by a skin (18) in which doors (19) are formed immediately above the suspension arms (11), and in a lower part.
