A convertible rotor aircraft (CRA) able to convert between airplane and helicopter flight modes during flight, comprising: at least one tiltable proprotor assembly (TPA) comprising a proprotor that is titlable to change the axis of rotation of the proprotor between a substantially horizontal airplane mode and a substantially vertical helicopter mode; and a main rotor system for providing lift during helicopter mode comprising at least one rotor, which produces airflow that flows through at least a portion the proprotor blades of the at least one TPA.

    L'invention concerne un aéronef à voilure tournante convertible (CRA) apte à commuter entre des modes de vol avion et hélicoptère en cours de vol, comprenant : au moins un ensemble de rotor orientable inclinable (TPA) comprenant un rotor orientable qui peut être incliné pour changer l'axe de rotation du rotor inclinable entre un mode avion sensiblement horizontal et un mode hélicoptère sensiblement vertical ; et un système de rotor principal pour fournir la portance en mode hélicoptère, comprenant au moins un rotor, qui produit un flux d'air qui s'écoule à travers au moins une partie des pales du rotor orientable de l'au moins un TPA.
