摘要:
A nacelle may include a pylon and a thrust reverser having an inner fixed structure. A locking mechanism may automatically engage and prevent relative movement between thrust reverser halves. A bumper may be coupled to the inner fixed structure. The locking mechanism may limit deflections between the thrust reverser and the pylon in response to a burst duct. A locking mechanism in the inner fixed structure may include a pressure relief door and an arrestor which hooks onto a retaining bar in a pylon bracket. The locking mechanism may allow the thrust reverser halves to be opened for access to the engine.

A structural panel may be configured for attenuating noise. This panel includes a first skin, a second skin and a core forming a plurality of cavities vertically between the first skin and the second skin. The core may include a wall connected to and extending vertically between the first skin and the second skin. The wall may be laterally between and fluidly separate at least a first of the cavities from a second of the cavities. The wall may include a vertical stiffener. One or more perforations in the first skin may be fluidly coupled with the first of the cavities.

An aircraft gas-turbine engine has an engine cowling-nacelle which surrounds a core engine in a tubular way, characterized in that at least one inflow-side part of the engine cowling-nacelle is telescopically movable against the flow direction.
摘要:
A gas turbine engine comprises a nacelle that encloses a fan rotor carrying a plurality of fan blades. The nacelle is formed with droop such that one portion extends axially further from the fan blades than does another portion. The nacelle is rotatable such that a circumferential location of the one portion and the other portion may be varied dependent on flight conditions. A method of operating a gas turbine engine is also disclosed.

A pivot thrust reverser includes a first tandem pivot door subassembly comprising an inner panel and an outer panel. The inner panel and outer panel are connected by a first sliding rail. A second tandem pivot door subassembly is included comprising an inner panel and an outer panel. The inner panel and outer panel are connected by a second sliding rail.

A turbojet engine nacelle includes a rear section having an internal structure. The internal structure surrounds a rear part of an engine compartment and delimits, with an ejection jet pipe, an outlet cross section for the ventilation of the engine compartment. The engine nacelle includes a moving element associated with a corresponding controller. The moving element is able to move between a withdrawn position in which the outlet cross section for ventilation is at a maximum and an engaged position in which the moving element partially reduces the outlet cross section for ventilation by comparison with the retracted position. The controller is capable of moving the moving element between the retracted and engaged positions.
摘要:
An acoustic structure for an aircraft nacelle which comprises an acoustically resistive substructure, at least one layer of cells and a reflective layer. The acoustic structure comprises at least one single-piece substructure which divides up the layer of cells and which incorporates elongated elements of a de-icing system.

A fastener assembly for affixing insulation blankets to a substrate is provided. The fastener assembly includes an attachment member having a construction for affixing to a substrate as well as a first fastener member preferably in the form of a male threaded stud. The fastener assembly further includes a cap fastener. The cap fastener includes a cap member and a second fastener member preferably in the form of a female threaded extension for threadably affixing to the first fastener member. The cap member has an exterior side and an interior side. The cap member's exterior side preferably has a shape for rotation by a tool. Meanwhile, the cap member's interior side has a circular recess concentric with the cap fastener's female threaded extension. When assembled, the circular recess forms a circular insulating cavity between the cap member and an insulation blanket.

Methods and apparatus for supporting engines and nacelles relative to aircraft wings are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a nacelle; a first support structure coupled between a wing and a first side of the nacelle along a thrust axis of an engine; a second support structure coupled between the wing and a second side of the nacelle along the thrust axis, the first support structure spaced apart from the second support structure on the wing, a longitudinal plane to extend through the first support structure, the second support structure, and the thrust axis, the first support structure to be rigidly fixed relative to the wing to substantially prevent movement of the engine by the first support structure, the second support structure to be rigidly fixed relative to the wing to substantially prevent movement of the engine by the second support structure, the first and second support structures to be coupled to opposite sides of the engine to enable thrust loads to be reacted through the first and second support structures to the wing.
摘要:
A propulsion assembly includes an engine surrounded by a nacelle, a means for draining the fluids from the engine and a means for guiding said fluids to a retention box. The retention box is arranged outside the engine and has a cavity for storing drained fluids. The retention box is fixed to a cowling of the nacelle and supported thereby.
