THRUST REVERSER WITH CONTINUOUS CURVED SURFACE
20210047983 · 2021-02-18 ·

A thrust reverser for an aircraft includes a jetpipe and a thrust reverser door. The thrust reverser door has an aft end, a forward end, and an interior surface facing radially inward. The interior surface defines a continuous profile with a downstream nozzle portion directly adjacent to the aft end, a concave portion directly adjacent to the downstream nozzle portion, and a convex portion directly adjacent to the forward end and adjacent to the concave portion.

Nacelle of a turbojet engine comprising an outer thrust-reversing door
10941729 · 2021-03-09 · ·

A nacelle for a dual-flow turbojet engine comprises a structure, a fixed cowl, a cowl translationally mobile on the structure, a window open between a secondary jet and the outside of the nacelle, and delimited by the fixed and mobile cowls, an outer thrust-reversing door rotationally mobile and a driving mechanism. The driving mechanism comprises a single power cylinder arranged at the level of a median plane and having a first end mounted articulated on the structure, a shaft with the second end of the power cylinder mounted articulated on the shaft, a first yoke joint secured to the outer thrust-reversing door and free to rotate on the shaft, and a second yoke joint secured to the mobile cowl, and where each of the two flanks of the second yoke joint has a groove in each of which the shaft is mounted to slide parallel to the median plane.

Translating cowl thrust reverser system with over-stow unlocking capability

A thrust reverser system for a turbine engine includes a support structure, a transcowl, a door, a lock, and a first elastic element. The transcowl is mounted on the support structure and is translatable between a stowed position, a deployed position, and an over-stow position. The door is pivotally coupled to the support structure and is rotatable between at least a first position, a second position, and a third position. The lock is movable between a locked position, to prevent transcowl translation toward the deployed position, and an unlocked position, to allow transcowl translation toward the deployed position. The lock is only able to move to the unlocked position when the transcowl is in the over-stow position. The first elastic element is disposed within the stowed position aperture and, when engaging both the support structure and the transcowl, supplies a force to the transcowl.

Thrust reverser with displaceable trailing edge body
11053887 · 2021-07-06 · ·

An assembly is provided for an aircraft propulsion system. This assembly includes a target-type thrust reverser and a tubular trailing edge body. The target-type thrust reverser includes a plurality of thrust reverser doors. Each of the thrust reverser doors is configured to pivot between a stowed position to a deployed position. The tubular trailing edge body is configured to at least partially form a gas path nozzle for the aircraft propulsion system. The tubular trailing edge body is configured to be displaced when the thrust reverser doors pivot from the stowed position to the deployed position.
