Turbojet comprising a nacelle with an air intake for promoting a reverse thrust phase
An aircraft turbojet engine comprising a fan configured to provide a reverse thrust and a nacelle comprising an air intake, the air intake comprising at least one circulation duct in the annular cavity opening, on the one hand, at the air intake lip and, on the other hand, at the inner wall and/or the outer wall so as to promote a reverse thrust phase, the air intake comprising at least one cover member mounted to move between a covered position, in which the cover member closes the circulation duct at the air intake lip and an uncovered position, in which the cover member opens the circulation duct at the air intake lip.

LABYRINTH BARRIER WITH MEMBERS CONSTRUCTED OF A SHAPE MEMORY MATERIAL
A labyrinth barrier is disclosed and comprises two or more members each defining respective vertical axes. One or more of the members are constructed at least in part of a shape memory material having a first energy state and a second energy state. The members are oriented relative to one another by their respective vertical axes in an original state to create a flow pathway that restricts fluid flow in a direction transverse to the respective vertical axes. The members are urged towards one another to further restrict the flow pathway when the shape memory material transitions from the first energy state to the second energy state.
Turbofan comprising a set of rotatable blades for blocking off the bypass flow duct
A turbofan having a nacelle comprising a slider mobile in translation between an advanced and a retracted position to open a window between a duct and the exterior, a plurality of blades, each one mobile in rotation on the slider between a stowed and a deployed position, where the blades are split into groups, where each group comprises a first blade, and a maneuvering system moving each blade and comprising a cam integral with the first blade of one of the groups and having a tooth, a groove receiving the tooth, a first transmission system transmitting the movement of the first blade bearing the cam to a first blade of each other group, and, for each group, a second transmission system transmitting the movement of the blade that bears the cam or is moved by the first transmission system to each of the other blades of the group.

Exhaust nozzle of a gas turbine engine
An exhaust nozzle of a gas turbine engine which includes a nozzle wall, the nozzle wall including an upstream, fixed structure and a downstream, translatable structure that is translatable relative to the fixed structure, a flow channel which is limited radially outwards by the nozzle wall, a centerbody arranged in the flow channel, at least one strut connecting the centerbody to the nozzle wall, a thrust reverser unit that comprises blocking doors, a first actuation system for deployment of the blocking doors into a deployed position for thrust reversal, and a second actuation system for translating the translatable structure between a stowed, upstream position and a fully deployed, downstream position. It is provided that the at least one strut is connected to the fixed structure, that the blocking doors are connected to the translatable structure, and that the first actuation system and the second actuation system are independent actuation systems.
Method of manufacturing a grille for a thrust reverser
The invention proposes a method for manufacturing a grille for a cascade type thrust reverser, of a jet engine, said method including the following steps: a) manufacturing a first component comprising continuous or long fibres, pre-impregnated by a thermoplastic or thermosetting resin; b) manufacturing, subsequently or together with step a), a series of second components each including discontinuous fibres, pre-impregnated by a thermoplastic or thermosetting resin, step b) being carried out such that the second components are, on the one hand, arranged transversally with respect to a longitudinal direction of the first component on at least one side of the first component and, on the other hand, spaced from one another according to this longitudinal direction, so as to form a comb-shaped structure, wherein the second components are consolidated to the first component.

Turbojet engine comprising a nacelle equipped with a fan case and with a fixed structure
A turbojet engine comprising an engine, a nacelle comprising a fan case, an intermediate case having a part forming a hub and an outer shroud radially spaced away from the hub by a secondary, or bypass, flow path and fixed to the hub via arms, in which the outer shroud is situated to the rear and in the continuity of the fan case, a fixed structure fixed to the outer shroud, a mobile assembly mounted with the ability to effect translational movement on the fixed structure, and a ramp fixed to the outer shroud and configured to direct the secondary or bypass flow to exit the outer shroud. Such a turbojet engine makes it possible to simplify assembly and among other things, makes it possible to fix the ramp directly to the outer shroud.
