A strut (10) for hooking an engine (16) under a wing body assembly (12) of an aircraft comprises a rigid structure as well as a mechanism for hooking this structure under the wing body assembly. This mechanism comprises a front fastener (22), a rear fastener (24) and a structure (26) for absorbing thrust. To install an engine (16) of greater diameter under the wing body assembly (12) of an existing plane, the rear part (20b) of the strut (10) is given a width which increases as it progresses to the rear. Furthermore, the rear fastener (24) comprises two braces which are fixed on both sides of the rigid structure and two shackles which connect each of the braces to an additional transverse rib integrated into the wing body assembly.

1. A strut for hooking an engine under a wing body assembly a rigid structure comprising: a rigid structure comprising a rear part having a width which increases substantially and a depth which decreases substantially, as it progresses to the rear; and means of hooking said rigid structure under the wing body assembly, said hooking means comprising rear fastener, a rear fastener and means for absorbing forces, said rear fastener comprising two rear braces fixed to the rigid structure, so as to protrude laterally on both sides of the latter, in a rear region of said rear part, and at least two joining elements connecting each one of said rear braces to a structural part of the wing body assembly.2. The strut as claimed in claim 1, in which each of said joining elements comprises a first binge pin, a shackle passing through a lower wing surface covering of the wing body assembly and a second hinge pin parallel to the first, the first hinge pin connecting one of the rear braces to an inner end of the shackle and the second hinge pin connecting an upper end of the shackle to said structural part of the wing body assembly.3. The strut as claimed in claim 2, in which the first hinge pin and the second hinge pin are oriented according to a longitudinal direction of the engine.4. The strut as claimed in claim 1, in which each of said joining elements comprises a hinge pin, at least a first piece mounted in one of the rear braces so as to be able to pivot about a first axis and a second piece mounted in a support fixed to the structural part of the wing body assembly, under a lower wing surface covering of the latter, so as to be able to pivot about a second axis, the hinge pin passing through the first piece and the second piece, the first axis and the second axis being parallel to one another, offset vertically relative to one another and oriented in a longitudinal direction of the engine.5. The strut as claimed in claim 4, in which anti-rotation means are provided between the hinge pin and each of the first and second pieces, so as to prohibit any relative rotation between them.6. The strut as claimed in claim 4, in which each of the rear braces is in the form of a U-shaped cap comprising two parallel plates between which is placed said support, a first piece being mounted in each of the plates of the rear brace.7. The strut as claimed in claim 6, in which two first pieces are mounted respectively in each of the two plates of each rear brace, said first pieces cooperating with the two plates 70 of the rear brace by surfaces in the form of a segment of a sphere defining between the plates and said pieces a linkage of a pot-type joint.8. The strut as claimed in claim 7, in which intermediate pieces forming pot-type joint cages are fixed in each of the two plates of the rear brace and cooperate via internal surfaces in the form of a segment of a sphere with external surfaces in the form of a segment of a sphere of the first pieces.9. The strut as claimed in claim 1, in which the joining elements comprise an external joining element and an internal joining element relative to the aircraft and the external joining element is closer to a vertical plane passing through a longitudinal axis of the engine than the internal joining element.10. The strut as claimed in claim 1, in which said means for absorbing forces comprise a pot-type joint fixed at the rear part of the rigid structure, between the two rear braces, and a shearing pion fixed to the wing body assembly and traversing said pot-type joint.11. The strut as claimed in claim 10, in which the shearing pion is fixed to said structural part of the wing body assembly and located in a vertical plane passing through a longitudinal axis of the engine.12. The strut as claimed in claim 1, in which the front fastener comprises a front brace fixed to a front region of said rear part, and a mounting axis of said front brace on the wing body assembly, said mounting axle being oriented in a longitudinal direction.13. The strut as claimed in claim 12, in which the mounting axle is fixed to a front longeron of the wing body assembly.
