Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for the self-calibration of electric jacks (6a, 6b) capable of actuating a mobile member (2) of a turbojet nacelle (1) and connected to at least one position measuring member, characterized in that it comprises the steps of: moving the jack(s) into a retracted position corresponding to a first position of the mobile member, storing one or more position values fed back by the position measuring member for the jack(s) in said retracted position; moving the jack(s) into an extended position corresponding to a second position of the mobile member; storing one or mom position values fed back by the position measuring member for the jack(s) in said extended position.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a system for controlling at least one actuator (6) for thrust reverser cowlings (2) on a turbojet engine, comprising a set of actuator and/or control components with at least one actuator (6) for cowlings (2) driven by at least one electric motor (7) and control means (9) for the electric motor (7).

Abstract:
The present invention relates to an electric power supply circuit (1) for a turbojet engine nacelle including at least one electric generator (2) mechanically connected to the shaft of a turbojet engine, said generator being capable of directly supplying electric power to a first electric power device other than a simple monitoring or supervising unit, characterized in that said generator is capable of directly supplying electric power to at least one second electric power device other than a monitoring or supervising unit, as well as to a nacelle including such an electric circuit.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a control system for at least one actuator (6) for the cowlings of a thrust inverter in a turbojet engine, that comprises an assembly of actuation and/or control components. A control means (9) is provided for detecting the failure of an actuation and/or control component (7, 16, 13), for determining the blocking or non-blocking character of the failure for the system operation and, in case of a non-blocking failure, for switching from a nominal operation mode to a failure-adaptation operation mode in which the failure of the actuation and/or control component (7, 16, 13) is compensated at least partially by a modified instruction of the other actuation and/or control components (7, 16, 13).
