Abstract
A system for controlling discharge doors of a turbomachine includes: a ring and a device connecting the ring to each discharge door. The ring is made up of bars connected end-to-end by rotary links ensuring that a bar pivoting on itself causes the other bars to pivot on themselves, with each discharge door being connected to a corresponding bar in order to open or close when this bar pivots.
