Patent number: 12085042Abstract: A position sensor for an aircraft nacelle thrust reverser door for an aircraft turbojet engine includes a target to be detected, a detector having a detection range and including a detection head configured to detect the target when it enters its detection range, and a target guide configured to guide the target in order to position it in the detection range of the detector. The detector is stationary relative to the target guide. In one form, the target is intended to be positioned on the door, and the detector and the target guide are intended to be positioned on a stationary structure of the thrust reverser. In another form, the target is intended to be positioned on a stationary structure of the thrust reverser, and the detector and the target guide are intended to be positioned on the door.Type: GrantFiled: February 7, 2022Date of Patent: September 10, 2024Assignee: Safran NacellesInventors: Alexis Loncle, Laurent Georges Valleroy

Patent number: 11512643Abstract: A device for securing at least one thermal protection mat to an internal fixed structure of a nacelle includes at least one removable fastening element for securing the at least one thermal protection mat to the internal fixed structure designed to be arranged between the mat and the internal fixed structure. The device includes at least one gripping element connected to the removable fastening element to project relative to the mat on the opposite side to the internal fixed structure, the removable fastening element being intended to be detached from the internal fixed structure by a pulling force exerted on the gripping element.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2020Date of Patent: November 29, 2022Assignee: Safran NacellesInventors: Alexis Loncle, Jérémie Rabineau, François Bellet, Cédric Renault

Patent number: 10961951Abstract: Disclosed is a thrust reverser for a device receiving a propulsion element, such as a turbojet engine nacelle. The thrust reverser includes a stationary structure having a deflector deflecting at least a portion of the air flow that is to flow through the nacelle, a translatably movable cap that can be in a closed position in which the cap covers the deflector deflecting the air flow and an open position in which the cap opens the deflector deflecting the air flow, and at least one moving actuator configured to move the cap between the open and closed positions. The moving actuator includes a stationary portion designed to be attached to the stationary structure in a first securing position and a movable portion designed to be attached to the cap in a second securing position. An adjusting device adjusts the first securing position.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2018Date of Patent: March 30, 2021Assignee: SAFRAN NACELLESInventors: Alexis Tabouret, Alexis Loncle

Patent number: 10696415Abstract: A nacelle for an aircraft turbojet engine includes a fixed internal structure intended to receive an aircraft turbojet engine and an external structure. The fixed internal structure and external structure defines a flow channel for a secondary air flow. A set of lower and upper beams are linked together by the fixed internal structure. An external wall of the lower beam is designed to partially define an external aerodynamic surface of the nacelle, intended to come into contact with an outer air flow. The external wall of the lower beam is further designed to tolerate the damage caused by the outer air flow.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2018Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: Safran NacellesInventor: Alexis Loncle
