Abstract: An air intake for a nacelle of an aircraft engine includes a substantially cylindrical outer wall, a substantially cylindrical inner wall, a front lip, a front mounting flange, and a support structure. The front lip connects the substantially cylindrical inner wall and the substantially cylindrical outer wall. The front mounting flange is configured to cooperate with a rear flange of a wall of the aircraft engine forming a fan casing. The support structure comprises a lower end configured to be secured to the fan casing, by the rear flange, and an upper end in contact at least with a downstream portion of the outer wall. The support structure includes access apertures configured to be crossed by maintenance tools during operations of maintenance of the air intake.

Abstract: A propulsion system fastened to one side of an aircraft and having a longitudinal axis and a mid-plane and having a nacelle with two inner cowls, two outer cowls, two lower structural elements and two upper structural elements, wherein each outer cowl is articulated on a pylon by hinges with axes parallel to the longitudinal axis. The two outer cowls are contiguous at a separation plane containing the longitudinal axis and making, with the mid-plane, an acute angle. The axes are asymmetrical with respect to the mid-plane.

Abstract: An assembly including a nacelle element, such as a cover, a device for locking the nacelle element, a key for locking/unlocking the locking device and an indicator for indicating the position of the locking device. This assembly includes a control device which is configured to be actuated by the key when the key is withdrawn from the locking device so as to make the indicator move from a first state to a second state, the state of the indicator being representative of the locked or unlocked position of the locking device.

Abstract: A propulsive assembly for aircraft comprising an engine, a nacelle arranged around the engine and a pylon supporting the engine, the nacelle including two engine cowls and reversing cowls, each cowl having an internal skin, characterized in that at least one of the cowls of the nacelle comprises at least one box arranged in a space situated between the internal skin of the cowl and the engine, the box delimiting a volume of inert material, the inert material being flame retardant foam. This box partially blocks a zone of the engine where a fire is likely to begin, which makes it possible to limit the volume of a fire zone of the engine, and thus reduce the quantity of extinguishing agent which is necessary to extinguish a fire in the zone of the engine concerned.

Abstract: An exhaust nozzle assembly includes, but is not limited to, a nozzle body configured to be fluidly coupled with an engine and to receive a jet produced by the engine. An outer cover covers the nozzle body. A movable component is disposed and configured to have an effect on either the jet or an exhaust plume when the movable component moves. A linkage is coupled to the movable component and adapted for coupling to an actuator. The linkage transmits the force to the moveable component from the actuator. There is a gap between an inner surface of the outer cover and an outer surface of the nozzle body. The linkage is smaller than the actuator. The gap is smaller than a smallest dimension of the actuator and larger than the linkage. The linkage is partially disposed within the gap, and the exhaust nozzle assembly is free of the actuator.

Abstract: An engine pylon of an aircraft having a rear portion, two rear cowls around the rear portion, each rear cowl having an upper fixed cowl and a lower movable cowl mounted articulated on the rear portion, wherein in the closed position the two lower movable cowls are moved close to one another, such that their lower edges are contiguous, wherein in the open position the two lower movable cowls are tilted such that their lower edges are moved away from one another, for each lower movable cowl, a hinge system fixed between the lower movable cowl and the rear portion, and at least one locking system which locks the two lower movable cowls to one another in the closed position. The presence of the lower movable cowls ensures, among other things, easy access to the interior of the engine pylon.

Abstract: A propulsion system assembly includes a variable area inlet and an inlet duct. The variable area inlet includes an outer airflow inlet passage, an inner airflow inlet passage, an inlet structure and a center body structure. The outer airflow inlet passage is between the inlet structure and the center body structure. The inner airflow inlet passage is formed within the center body structure. The center body structure includes a valve configured to regulate air flow through the inner airflow inlet passage. The valve includes a first door configured to pivot between a closed position and an open position. The inlet duct is configured to receive air from the outer airflow inlet passage when the first door is in the closed position. The inlet duct is configured to receive air from the outer airflow inlet passage and the inner airflow inlet passage when the first door is in the open position.

Abstract: A drive unit includes an engine such as a turbofan engine and a nacelle which includes, on the outside around an annular stream of fresh air, starting from upstream, an air inlet, front side covers, a thrust reverser having reversal gratings and movable rear covers. The front side covers surround the reversal gratings of the thrust reverser when it is closed, and the movable rear covers retreat with said gratings to open the reverser. The engine includes lifting points that form heavy-duty attachment points intended to receive handling clevis for lifting and transporting the drive unit. The lifting points are two upper lifting points arranged on the engine, each on one side of the engine radially behind the front side covers above the horizontal diameter (D) of the drive unit.
