An adaptor is coaxial with the main shaft and comprising a second shaft for supporting the rear propeller. A plurality of pitched-formed seating surfaces having ramps, are spaced apart from the second shaft in an axial direction. An adaptor communicates with the rear side of the front propeller in the axial direction; a plurality of locking elements are movable in the axial direction, each being in contact with the seating surfaces of the adaptor, and communicate with the rear propeller from the other end.
