ABSTRACT:
A main helicopter rotor has a number of blades, and a drift shaft supporting at its top end, a hub consisting of a rigid annular body integral and coaxial with the drive shaft. An elastically deformable torodial body surrounds and is connected to the annular body for defining, with the same, a closed-section torodial assembly. Each blade is connected to the hub by a connecting element extending at least partially through the annular body and the torodial body, and connected respectively to the same by a first and second spherical elastomeric bearing.
