  • Patent number: 12049854
    Abstract: A turbofan with a nacelle having a fixed structure, a mobile assembly bearing second blocking element and able to move between an advanced position and a withdrawn position, a set of deflectors able to move in translation between an advanced position and a withdrawn position, and an actuation system having a carriage, a blocking lever bearing first attachment element and able to move between a blocking position and a free position, and a transmission system configured to move the blocking lever from the blocking position to the free position when the mobile assembly reaches a tilting position between the advanced position and the withdrawn position.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20230286245
    Abstract: A honeycomb structure has a core made up of a plurality of corrugated sheets which are superposed and fixed together. The corrugated sheets are made from a thermally insulating material. The corrugated sheets are impregnated with a resin filled with thermally conductive powder along their entire length. The honeycomb structure can be used when the ambient temperature exceeds, for example, 120° C.

  • Patent number: 10759542
    Abstract: A rear engine attachment includes a beam attached to the reactor strut, a rudder mounted by a pivot connection on the beam about a main rotational axis, and two thrust rods each exhibiting a first end attached to the rudder and a second end attached to a front section of an engine, the two thrust rods and the rudder attached to the beam together defining a primary thrust path between the engine and the reactor strut to bear the engine thrust. For each thrust rod, the rear engine attachment exhibits a waiting fail-safe system activated in the event of a failure of the primary thrust path. The rear engine attachment includes, for each thrust rod, a break detector integral with the rudder which is provided to come into contact with the beam in the event of a failure of the primary thrust path. The attachment allows a quick inspection to be made to determine whether there has been a failure of the primary thrust path.
