  • Patent number: 11181073
    Abstract: An actuator includes a screw mounted on a body to pivot, a nut connected to an element for moving, and that is engaged on the screw to be moved between an over-retracted first position and a deployed second position on either side of a retracted third position that is spaced apart from the over-retracted position by a distance corresponding to the screw rotating through a first angular sector and an anti-extension device comprising a friction disk having at least one smooth surface and an obstacle both for co-operating with at least one pawl, thereby defining both at least one second angular sector of free rotation for the friction disk and also a position for blocking the friction disk.

  • Patent number: 11168645
    Abstract: 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.

  • Patent number: 10982720
    Abstract: A device (1) for connecting an end of a first shaft to an end of a second shaft, the end of the first shaft having a radial groove. The device includes a body (2) having a bore (21) into which the end of the first shaft can be introduced, a locking pin (3) movable with respect to the body (2) between a locked position, in which the pin (3) projects into the bore (21) such that, when the end of the first shaft is received inside the bore (21), the locking pin (3) is engaged in the radial groove in the end of the first shaft, and an unlocked position. In the unlocked position, the locking pin (3) is disengaged from the radial groove in the end of the first shaft, and an elastic return member (4) urges the locking pin (3) into the locked position.

  • Publication number: 20200378447
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) for connecting an end of a first shaft to an end of a second shaft, the end of the first shaft having a radial groove, the device comprising:—a body (2) having a bore (21) into which the end of the first shaft can be introduced,—a locking pin (3) mounted so as to be movable with respect to the body (2) between a locked position, in which the pin (3) projects into the bore (21) such that, when the end of the first shaft is received inside the bore (21), the locking pin (3) is engaged in the radial groove in the end of the first shaft in order to prevent the end of the first shaft from being removed from the bore (21), and an unlocked position, in which the locking pin (3) is disengaged from the radial groove in the end of the first shaft so as to allow the end of the first shaft to be introduced into the bore (21) or to allow the end of the first shaft to be removed from the bore (21), and—an elastic return member (4) for urging the locking pin (3) into the locked position

  • Patent number: 10605199
    Abstract: A lockable actuator includes: a body; a screw for pivoting relative to the body; a nut engaged on the screw so as to move along the screw between an over-retracted first position and a deployed second position on opposite sides of a retracted third position; a sleeve constrained to rotate with the screw and slidably mounted thereon in order to be moved by the nut; and an obstacle secured to the sleeve and a pawl capable of passing collectively between an active state and an inactive state, the pawl and the obstacle being arranged in such a manner that the pawl in its active state can co-operate with the obstacle only after the nut has been moved through a predetermined distance from its third position towards its second position.
