Nacelle equipped with a thrust-reversing system comprising doors and anti-vibration systems for the doors in stowed position

A nacelle having a window open between a secondary jet and the outside of the nacelle and comprising a fixed structure and a thrust-reversing system having a frame and outer doors articulated on the frame. The frame is translationally mobile on the fixed structure between an advanced position and a retracted position. Each outer door is mobile between a stowed position and a deployed position. The nacelle comprises at least one anti-vibration system which comprises a chock fixed to the fixed structure and having a hole, and a finger fixed to the outer door. The finger and the hole are configured so that the finger lodges in the hole when the frame is in advanced position. Such a nacelle makes it possible to limit the vibrations of the outer doors when they are in stowed position and before the mobile frame begins to be displaced to the retracted position.
