Device for actuating a thrust reverser with an anti-deployment member

An actuation device for a thrust reverser includes thrust-reversal movable elements carried by a nacelle and displaceable between a retracted and deployed position. The actuating device includes two actuators mounted on the nacelle and connected to a motor and to the movable elements. The actuation device drives the movable elements in a retraction or deployment direction over a course of the actuators between the retracted and deployed position. The actuation device further includes locks for locking the movable elements in the retracted position and antideployment members associated with the actuators which allow free operation of the actuators in the direction of retraction and retain the actuators in the direction of deployment. The antideployment bodies further provide free operation of the actuators in the direction of deployment over part of the actuators stroke that corresponds to a shift from an over-retraction position to the retraction position of the movable elements.

Jet engine comprising a nacelle equipped with reverser flaps provided with vortex-generating means

A turbofan comprising a motor and a nacelle, surrounding the motor, where a duct for a bypass flow is delimited between the nacelle and the motor and in which a flow of air flows. The nacelle comprises reverser flaps where each one is articulated between a stowed position in which it is not in the bypass duct and a deployed position in which it is across the bypass duct. The turbofan has at least one reverser flap with at least one leakage window configured to allow airflow in the deployed position. The at least one reverser flap has at least one fin extending across the leakage window.

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.
