DAMPING CONNECTING ROD

A damping connecting rod that can be converted into a rigid connecting rod in the case of abnormal vibrations. The damping connecting rod comprises a body having a cavity and a shaft inside the cavity, with a clevis associated with the body and allowing the clevis to be fixed to an element. The shaft can be longitudinally displaced inside the body or the body about the shaft. The connecting rod includes an arrangement for longitudinally immobilizing the shaft with respect to the clevis comprising at least one hook and at least one hollow, which are borne by two connecting rod pieces, respectively, which are configured to be displaced toward one another and with a shape such that, with the displacement of the pieces longitudinally with respect to one another, the hook driven into the corresponding hollow longitudinally immobilizes the shaft with respect to the clevis.
