On étudie l'ensemble partiellement ordonné des tores hamiltoniens pour les espaces de polygones. Un certain nombre d'éléments maximaux sont dégagés et l'on donne des exemples où les tores maximaux n'ont pas tous la même dimension.

We study the poset of Hamiltonian tori for polygon spaces. We determine some maximal elements and give examples where maximal Hamiltonian tori are not all of the same dimension.
