An aeronautical thrust reverser including a sliding cowl, shutter flaps and deflection cascades. The reverser includes, for each flap, a return member hinged to the sliding cowl, to a driving connecting rod itself hinged to a front frame of the reverser, and to a return connecting rod itself hinged to the flap, the latter being moreover hinged by its rear end to the sliding cowl. The return member, the driving connecting rod and the return connecting rod form an actuation system capable of opening the secondary flow duct in a direct thrust configuration.

A turbofan has a nacelle delimiting a duct for a bypass flow and comprises a fixed structure comprising a guide vane support with guide vanes, a mobile cowl able to move in translation between an advanced position and a retracted position, arms, each one being mobile in rotation between a stowed position and a deployed position and comprising a distal end and a proximal end, a flexible screen, of which an exterior edge is attached to the guide vane support rearward of the guide vanes, and wherein the distal end of each arm is fixed along the interior edge, actuators to cause the mobile cowl to move, and an operating system which moves each arm. Replacing the reversal doors and their drive mechanisms with the flexible screen and the set of rotationally-mobile arms allows a reduction in weight.

A nacelle for use in an aircraft having a turbojet engine (the turbojet engine including a fan casing and a suspension pylon) includes a D-shaped structure downstream section embedding a thrust reverser device. The D-shaped structure downstream section includes a movable cascades vane. The D-shaped structure downstream section also includes two D-shaped half-structures each having an outer half-cowl movable in translation along a longitudinal axis, a connector between the cascades vane and the outer half-cowl, a twelve o'clock half-bifurcation, an inner half-structure defining an inner portion of the annular flow path, and a twelve o'clock half-beam mounted on the twelve o'clock half-bifurcation articulated on the pylon. The nacelle further includes an axial retention device of the downstream section of the nacelle, relative to the turbojet engine, configured to provide a connection defining an axial retention between the twelve o'clock half-beam and a fixed element of the fan casing.

A thrust reverser cascade for an aircraft nacelle includes a plurality of blades having a first and a second surface, the blades being connected to members connected to attachment flanges for attaching the thrust reverser cascade to the nacelle. At least one of the surfaces of the blades is covered with at least one layer of fibers, each layer including a plurality of fiber pieces which are pre-impregnated with resin. The fiber pieces are superimposed on one another, positioned parallel to the aerodynamic surface of the blade and oriented in different directions.
