Zusammenfassung: | The invention relates to a device for protecting against the overspeed of a free turbine (6) of a turbine engine which comprises a gas generator including at least one compressor (1), a combustion chamber (3), at least one linked turbine (4) and a system for controlling the fuel injected into said combustion chamber, the gases produced by said generator being sent to said free turbine (6), said device including at least one torque-measuring means (12) supported by an output shaft (8, 11) mechanically coupled to said free turbine, and a signal-processing unit capable of transmitting an order to the control system of the turbine engine to reduce the flow rate of injected fuel in the event it is detected that the torque drops below a set value, wherein the measurement of the torque used for triggering said reduction is carried out during a rotation corresponding to a fraction of a revolution of said output shaft (8, 11). |
