Abstract
The invention relates to a system for attaching two components together, such as an aircraft engine and the mounting pylon thereof. According to the invention, at least two of the front (10) or rear (11) trunnions of the attaching system are vibration damping and each includes a suspension assembly (12) with an elastic element (14) and resonant mass (15).

1-10. (canceled)
A system for attaching two components together, such as an engine (2) of an aircraft and a mounting pylon (3) of said engine integral with the structure of said aircraft, of the type comprising, more specifically, front trunnions (10) and rear trunnions (11) with respect to the longitudinal axis X of said engine according to an orthonomial reference point XYZ, and contained in planes YZ perpendicular to said axis X, wherein:
- at least said two front (10) or rear (11) trunnions are of the vibrational damping type;
- the said two trunnions are identical and arranged on either sides of said pylon and said engine;
- and
- each vibrational damping trunnion comprises:
- a suspension assembly (12) with elastic element (14) and resonant mass (15), being connected to said pylon around a jointing axis (20) parallel to the axis X and one end (21) of which is free and bears said mass, whereas the other end (18) is associated with said elastic element (14) connected to said pylon;
- and
- at least one shackle (16) having an end attached to said engine (2) and the other end of which is connected to said corresponding suspension assembly (12).
