In this paper the family of elliptic curves over Q given by the equation Ep :Y2 = (X - p)3 + X3 + (X + p)3 where p is a prime number, is studied. Itis shown that the maximal rank of the elliptic curves is at most 3 and someconditions under which we have rank(Ep(Q)) = 0 or rank(Ep(Q)) = 1 orrank(Ep(Q))≥2 are given.
