  • Patent number: 10883446
    Abstract: An actuating device for moving a mobile cap of a thrust reverser, which includes: an actuator having a first element, such as a screw, and a second element, such as a nut, collaborating with the first element in such a way that turning the first element causes the second element to move in a translational movement. A locking piece is rotationally mobile between a locked position in which the locking piece prevents the first element from turning, and an unlocked position in which the locking piece allows the first element to turn. An unlocking piece is rotationally mobile between an active position in which the unlocking piece urges the locking piece towards the unlocked position and a passive position in which the unlocking piece allows the locking piece to return to the locked position.

  • Patent number: 9476384
    Abstract: The invention relates to an actuation device (1) for moving the movable cowling of a thrust reverser, comprising: an actuator (7) with a first member (12) such as a screw, and a second member (14) such as a nut, wherein the first and second members are capable of engaging such that the rotation of the first member results in a translation of the second member, a locking device (33) including a locking part (34) movable between a locked position for preventing to the rotation of the first member and an unlocked position for enabling the rotation of the first member, and a lock inhibiting device (42) comprising a recess (46) and a ball (47) movable in the recess between a stowed position, in which the ball enables the movement of the locking part, and an inhibition position in which the ball prevents the locking part from returning into the locked position.
