Abstract:
A device for connecting a thrust reverser front frame to a fan casing includes a crenulated flange secured to the front frame, an annular component to accept this flange secured to the fan casing, and a crenulated annulus of a shape that complements the flange and pivot-mounted on the annular component. The crenulated flange, the annular component and the crenulated annulus are designed in such a way that a rotation of the annulus with respect to the annular component has the effect of locking this flange against this annular component through the collaboration between the respective crenulations of the flange and of the annulus.
Abstract:
An aerodynamic element for an aircraft nacelle is provided that includes a fixed shroud and an intake lip axially movable relative to the shroud. The aerodynamic element is flexible and has a substantially cylindrical general shape and defines an upstream portion attached to the inner wall of the intake lip of the nacelle, and a downstream portion bearing radially against an inner face of the shroud. The downstream portion of the element includes a ring shaped bead protruding towards an outside of the aerodynamic element and an end blade which, at rest, is tilted towards the outside of the aerodynamic element in a direction of its free end.
Abstract:
A turbofan engine nacelle has a downstream section which includes at least one front frame. The front frame is attached to a stationary portion of the nacelle, and the downstream section is provided with at least one rail or slide which extends in a longitudinal direction of the nacelle and is capable of engaging with at least one corresponding slide or rail of an attachment pylon of the turbofan engine. The front frame is connected to the rail or slide of the downstream section by means of at least one swiveled connecting rod.
Abstract:
A thrust reverser device for a turbojet engine nacelle includes a cowl mounted translating between a closing position and an opening position in which the cowl opens a passage in the nacelle and uncovers deflecting cascades. The cowl is associated with a blocking flap pivotally mounted on the cowl between a retracted position and a pivoted blocking position in which the blocking flap closes partially an air flow path of the nacelle. The blocking flap is equipped with a driving mechanism including an assembly forming a lever pivotally mounted on the cowl and articulated at each of ends of the lever, by means of driving links, respectively on the blocking flap and on a fixed structure of the thrust reverser device. In particular, the assembly and the driving links are articulated in an articulation plane substantially perpendicular to the blocking flap and substantially radial to the thrust reverser device.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a cascade thrust reverser providing that when a sliding cowl and a flap are in a direct jet position, a hook is held in engagement with another hook and the flap is immobilized inside of a housing of the sliding cowl by a stem of a telescopic connecting rod subjected to pre-stress generated by a compressed spring located in the body of the connecting rod. When the sliding cowl starts to slide from the direct jet position toward the reverse jet position, the hooks disengage each other and the stem engages with an extension in the body of the connecting rod, so that the flap is rotated from the direct jet position toward the reverse jet position due to the tensile force exerted by the stem.
