  • Patent number: 11952964
    Abstract: A sealing joint for an aircraft turbojet engine nacelle includes a bead designed to be mounted in a joint support. The sealing joint is characterized in that the bead includes a retaining projection which extends in a direction substantially transverse to a longitudinal axis of the sealing joint, the retaining projection being designed to extend through the joint support when the sealing joint is mounted in the support thereof and/or a sealing lip which extends under the bead in a direction substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the sealing joint and which is designed to be compressed on the joint support when the sealing joint is mounted in the support thereof.

  • Patent number: 11885283
    Abstract: A seal interposed between a turbojet engine and a movable part of a nacelle includes a tubular body delimiting an inner cavity interposed between at least one fixing part and a platform. The platform includes a first lateral edge, a second lateral edge and a planar surface extending from the first lateral edge to the second lateral edge. The seal includes a protuberance arranged on the platform. The protuberance is centered on the platform or extends from the first lateral edge to the second lateral edge.

  • Patent number: 10745140
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a device for locking a first cowling and a second cowling of a thrust reverser of an aircraft propulsion assembly. The cowlings are mounted such that each cowl pivots around a longitudinal axis between a closed flight position and an open maintenance position. The locking device includes a telescopic connecting rod having at least one sliding shaft, a locking mechanism on a proximal end of a shaft on the second cowling, and a connecting rod support. The connecting rod support or the tubular element includes two walls each delimiting a hole, and the tubular element of the connecting rod or the connecting rod support has two support fingers which each extend longitudinally on a side of the tubular element into a hole. The holes engage with the support fingers when the cowlings are open and allow free movement of the support fingers in a closed-cowlings configuration.
