The invention relates to an aircraft engine assembly (1) including an engine (6) and an engine mounting device (4), the mounting device being designed to be inserted between a wing of the aircraft and the engine, and comprising a rigid structure (8) and means of mounting the engine onto the rigid structure, the mounting means comprising a forward fastener (10) and an aft fastener (12). According to the invention, the aft fastener comprises two aft half-fasteners (12a) that will each resist at least the forces applied along a longitudinal direction (X) of the engine, and the two aft half-fasteners are arranged so that a horizontal plane (P) passing through a longitudinal axis (5) of the engine passes through each of them.

The invention claimed is: 1. An engine assembly for an aircraft, comprising: an engine configured to produce thrust along a longitudinal axis of the engine, the engine including a fan casing configured to enclose a fan of the engine, a central casing configured to enclose a combustor of the engine, and an ejection casing configured to enclose a low-pressure turbine of the engine; a rigid structure includes a main box and a fork, the fork having a base and two branches, said base being fixed to the main box and a free end of each of the two branches supporting one of two aft half-fasteners, and the fork is configured to hold the engine solely through the two aft half-fasteners; and a mounting structure configured to mount the engine onto said rigid structure, said mounting structure including a forward fastener configured to fasten the rigid structure to the engine at the fan casing, said fastener is configured to resist forces applied along a vertical direction Z and along a transverse direction Y, and said forward fastener is configured to allow the engine to move along a longitudinal direction X without substantial resistance, and two aft half-fasteners, each of the two aft half-fasteners being configured to resist at least forces applied along the longitudinal axis of the engine, said two aft half-fasteners are arranged so that a horizontal plane passing through said longitudinal axis of the engine passes through each of said two aft half-fasteners, and the two aft half-fasteners are connected to the engine at an aft end of the central casing before a junction with the ejection casing, wherein the junction between the ejection casing and the central casing is disposed at a longitudinal position between the combustor of the engine and the low-pressure turbine. 2. An engine assembly according to claim 1, wherein said two branches of the fork jointly form a half-ring. 3. An engine assembly according to claim 2, wherein said half-ring is arranged in a plane orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of the engine. 4. An engine assembly according to claim 3, wherein said base of the fork is also located in the plane orthogonal to said longitudinal axis of the engine. 5. An engine assembly according to claim 1, wherein said engine comprises a fan casing, a central casing and an ejection casing, in order from a forward end to an aft end. 6. An engine assembly according to claim 5, wherein said aft half-fasteners are fixed to the central casing. 7. An engine assembly according to claim 5, wherein said forward fastener is fixed to the fan casing. 8. An engine assembly according to claim 7, wherein said forward fastener is fixed on an upper annular part of the fan casing. 9. An engine assembly according to claim 7, wherein the mounting structure consists exclusively of said forward fastener and said aft fastener. 10. An engine assembly according to claim 7, wherein the two aft half-fasteners are each configured to resist forces applied along the longitudinal direction of the engine and along the vertical direction Z of the engine. 11. An engine assembly according to claim 7, wherein said mounting structure forms a statically determinate system. 12. An engine assembly according to claim 1, wherein said forward fastener is constituted by a single connector connecting said rigid structure to a top of a forward portion of said engine, said top being relative to said vertical direction Z, such that said forward portion of said engine is supported by the rigid structure at a single location. 13. An engine assembly according to claim 12, wherein said engine is supported by the rigid structure at only three locations, one location corresponding to said single location at said forward portion of said engine, and two other locations corresponding to said two aft half-fasteners at said aft end of the central casing.
