  • Thrust reverser with anti-buckling actuating system
    Patent number: 11952963
    Abstract: A thrust reverser for a turbojet aircraft nacelle includes a fixed structure, a movable structure and an actuator. The actuator extends along a main axis and is connected by a first connection to the fixed structure and by a second connection to the movable structure for the deployment of the movable structure between a direct jet position and a reverse jet position. The actuator is also connected to the fixed structure by a third connection arranged longitudinally between the first connection and the second connection. An axis of the third connection is radially eccentric from the main axis and the third connection allows a predetermined displacement of the actuator with respect to the fixed structure.
