Abstract
Turbojet engine fan module wheel, including a plurality of blades made of composite material, each blade having a root assembled with a base distinct from the bases of the other blades, each base having a groove extending axially and opening out on the side of the upstream face and on the side of the downstream face, each root cooperating by axial interlocking in a form-fitting manner, for example in the shape of a dovetail, with the groove of the base, whereby the root is retained on the base along the radial and circumferential directions, and each base cooperates with at least one part configured to axially block the root within the groove of the base, whereby the root is retained along the axial direction.
