    摘要: An aircraft propulsion unit including a nacelle and a turbojet engine. The aircraft propulsion unit includes an external envelope, at least one fan casing, at least one actuator, and at least one support structure. The external envelope includes fan cowls. The fan casing cooperates with the fan cowls to define an interior space configured to house a thrust reverser configured to be displaced between a first position and a second position. The actuator configured to move the thrust reverser between the first position and the second position The support structure connects the fan cowls and the fan. The support structure includes at least one aperture configured to allow passage of part of the actuator.

    摘要: A nacelle for use in an aircraft having a turbojet engine (the turbojet engine including a fan casing and a suspension pylon) includes a D-shaped structure downstream section embedding a thrust reverser device. The D-shaped structure downstream section includes a movable cascades vane. The D-shaped structure downstream section also includes two D-shaped half-structures each having an outer half-cowl movable in translation along a longitudinal axis, a connector between the cascades vane and the outer half-cowl, a twelve o'clock half-bifurcation, an inner half-structure defining an inner portion of the annular flow path, and a twelve o'clock half-beam mounted on the twelve o'clock half-bifurcation articulated on the pylon. The nacelle further includes an axial retention device of the downstream section of the nacelle, relative to the turbojet engine, configured to provide a connection defining an axial retention between the twelve o'clock half-beam and a fixed element of the fan casing.

    摘要: A grid-type thrust reverser for a turbojet engine includes a moving O-shaped thrust reverser body that is generally cylindrical in shape around a longitudinal central axis (A) and includes an inner wall configured to delimit a cold air stream, with an inner structure that surrounds the turbojet engine, the movable thrust reverser body being mounted so as to be able to slide along the longitudinal central axis (A) between a direct jet position in which the outer cowl covers the thrust reverser grids, and a thrust-reversal position in which the outer cowl uncovers the thrust reverser grids. The movable thrust reverser body includes a first half-portion and a second half-portion that are mounted so as to each pivot about a longitudinal pivot axis (B), between a closed position and an open gullwing position for removing the turbojet engine, via the cradle.

    摘要: A propulsion unit for an aircraft including a nacelle with a D-shaped structure housing a thrust-reversing device with movable vanes, the nacelle containing two D-shaped half-structures each including an external reverser half-cowl. The propulsion unit contains an assembly box-type structure, attached in downstream cantilevered fashion to the turbojet engine fan casing, the box-type structure including two guide rails guiding the deflection vanes, a locking device between the assembly box-type structure and the half-beams in the six o'clock position of the D-shaped half-structures, the assembly box-type structure being arranged in the propulsion unit such that the guide rails guiding the vanes of the assembly box-type structure are situated in the continuation of the guide rails in the six o'clock position guiding the vanes attached to the fan casing, to provide continuity between the rails.

    摘要: An air intake for a nacelle of an aircraft propulsion assembly includes an upstream section that defines an air intake flow path, a central section surrounding a fan of an engine, and a downstream section surrounding a combustion chamber of the engine. The air intake includes a disassembly mechanism which has a panel able to move between a flush closed position in which the panel provides aerodynamic continuity of the air intake in the air intake flow path, and an open maintenance position in which the panel is radially and outwardly retracted in relation to its flush closed position in order to free up a space which allows removal of a blade of the fan at its distal end.

    摘要: A thrust reverser for an aircraft propulsion assembly includes a movable structure provided with external covers connected to hinges through a pivot connection allowing the external covers to rotate between a closed position and a maintenance position. The hinges are connected to secondary rails rigidly attached to an engine pylon through a sliding connection allowing the external covers to move in translation between a direct thrust position and a reverse thrust position. The hinges and the secondary rails are independent of beams to which the parts of the movable structure other than the external covers are connected. A method for maintaining an aircraft propulsion unit is also disclosed. The method includes positioning of the external covers in maintenance position followed by a placement of the beams and of the parts of the movable structure other than the external covers.
