    chaque aube est pliée au niveau de la portion de frontière de telle sorte que la seconde partie d'aile s'étend depuis la portion de frontière radialement vers l'intérieur davantage vers la portion de surface avant du moyeu qu'une extension virtuelle radialement vers l'intérieur de la première portion d'aile depuis la portion de frontière,
    dans lequel chaque aube comprend en outre :
    un bord d'attaque (125) définissant une extrémité avant dans une direction de rotation ; et
    un bord de fuite (126) définissant une extrémité arrière dans la direction de rotation,

    une seconde extrémité (135b) formée au niveau du bord d'attaque (125), et
    dans lequel un angle dont l'aube est pliée au niveau de la seconde extrémité (135b) est supérieur à l'angle dont l'aube est pliée au niveau de la première extrémité (135a), et dans lequel un angle de tangage (β1, β2, β3) de chaque aube augmente progressivement depuis la pointe vers le moyeu le long de la première partie d'aile, l'angle de tangage étant un angle d'une partie s'étendant dans le sens de la corde de l'aube par rapport au plan perpendiculaire à l'arbre central.
  2. Ventilateur axial selon la revendication 1, dans lequel la seconde partie d'aile (140) s'étend depuis la première extrémité (135a) jusqu'au moyeu (110) dans une direction correspondant à la direction d'extension de la première partie d'aile (130) près de la première extrémité, et l'aube est pliée d'un angle prédéfini au niveau de la seconde extrémité de telle sorte que la seconde partie d'aile (140) s'étend depuis la seconde extrémité (135b) jusqu'au moyeu à l'angle prédéfini par rapport à la direction d'extension de la première partie d'aile (130) près de la seconde extrémité.
  3. Ventilateur axial selon la revendication 2, dans lequel l'angle entre la première partie d'aile (130) et la seconde partie d'aile (140) est d'environ 0° au niveau de la première extrémité (135a) et est sensiblement compris dans la plage de 50° à 70° au niveau de la seconde extrémité (135b).
  4. Ventilateur axial selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 3, dans lequel une longueur axiale d'une portion au niveau de laquelle la partie de connexion au moyeu (121) et la portion de surface circonférentielle extérieure (113) du moyeu (110) sont couplées est variable dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre ou dans le sens contraire des aiguilles d'une montre.
  5. Ventilateur axial selon la revendication 4, dans lequel la partie de connexion au moyeu (121) comprend :
    une extrémité avant (121a) s'étendant de manière adjacente à la portion de surface avant du moyeu (110) ; et
    une extrémité arrière (121b) s'étendant inclinée par rapport à la portion de surface arrière du moyeu (110).
  6. Ventilateur axial selon la revendication 5, dans lequel la pluralité d'aubes tournent dans le sens contraire des aiguilles d'une montre ; et
    dans lequel une distance entre l'extrémité avant (121a) et l'extrémité arrière (121b) augmente progressivement dans le sens contraire des aiguilles d'une montre de la portion de surface circonférentielle extérieure (113) du moyeu (110) et diminue progressivement dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre de la portion de surface circonférentielle extérieure (113) du moyeu (110).
  7. Ventilateur axial selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 6, dans lequel est défini un cercle virtuel (C) connectant les pointes (123) de la pluralité d'aubes (120) entre elles, et
    un rapport d'un rayon (R1) du cercle virtuel sur un rayon (R2) de la portion de surface circonférentielle extérieure (113) depuis un centre du moyeu (110) est compris dans la plage d'environ 10 % à environ 25 %.
  8. Ventilateur axial selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 7, dans lequel les première et seconde parties d'aile (130, 140) sont intégrées l'une à l'autre.
  9. Ventilateur axial selon l'une quelconque des revendications 1 à 8, dans lequel un angle duquel la première partie d'aile (130) est inclinée par rapport au plan perpendiculaire à l'arbre central est différent d'un angle duquel la seconde partie d'aile (140) est inclinée par rapport au plan perpendiculaire à l'arbre central.
  10. Ventilateur axial selon la revendication 9, dans lequel un angle duquel la première partie d'aile (130) est inclinée par rapport à une direction axiale de l'arbre central (110a) est supérieur à un angle duquel la seconde partie d'aile (140) est inclinée par rapport à une direction axiale de l'arbre central (110a).
