Long-fibre-reinforced-joints-composite thrust reverser cascade

Thrust reverser composite cascade (1), comprising at least one longitudinal wall (15) and transverse walls (14) connecting to this longitudinal wall, characterized in that the longitudinal wall comprises at least one continuous longitudinal fibre bundle (19) and the transverse walls each comprise at least one continuous transverse fibre bundle (23) crossing the longitudinal bundle, so that the intersections (16) of the transverse and longitudinal walls are structurally bridged in both directions by the reinforcing continuous longitudinal and transverse fibre bundles.

Aerodynamic feature for aft edge portions of thrust reverser lower bifurcation wall
09822733 · 2017-11-21 · ·

A thrust reverser of a propulsion system nacelle is provided. The thrust reverser includes a fixed structure, a translating structure, and an aerodynamic feature. The fixed structure includes an annular wall that partially defines an annular bypass airstream duct. The fixed structure is bifurcated into left and right side sections. The annular wall extends between upper and lower bifurcation walls of the left side section, and extends between upper and lower bifurcation walls of the right side section. The translating structure is moveable relative to the fixed structure, between a stowed position and a deployed position. The aerodynamic feature that includes a flange disposed relative to an aft end portion of one of the lower bifurcation walls. The flange aids in preventing aerodynamic drag.

Nacelle
09784216 · 2017-10-10 · ·

A nacelle is configured to be coupled to an underside of a wing and forms a clearance space between the nacelle and a leading edge slat of the wing. A portion of an outlet cowling moves longitudinally aft when a reverse thrust configuration is activated and the leading edge slat is deployed toward the nacelle. The outlet cowling also includes another portion located adjacent to the leading edge slat that does not move when the reverse thrust configuration is activated and thus maintains its clearance space from the leading edge slat.
