  • 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.

  • Publication number: 20240082367
    Abstract: The present invention relates antidotes to anticoagulants targeting factor Xa. The antidoes are factor Xa protein derivatives that bind to the factor Xa inhibitors thereby substantially neutralizing them but do not assemble into the prothrombinase complex. The derivatives describe herein lack or have reduced intrinsic coagulant activity. Disclosed herein are methods of stopping or preventing bleeding in a patient that is currently undergoing anticoagulant therapy with a factor Xa inhibitor.

  • Publication number: 20230313755
    Abstract: A thrust reverser for a propulsion unit, incudes movable grids, two half-assemblies forming part of a secondary stream and, at the six o'clock position, a connecting beam intended to be mounted in cantilever with a fan housing. The half-assemblies are hinged at the twelve o'clock position so as to enable their “butterfly” movement between a flight configuration and a maintenance configuration. The connecting beam includes a connecting member configured to cooperate, in the form of a tenon and groove connection, with the half-assemblies when these are in flight configuration. The reverser also includes, downstreamof the connecting member, locks capable of locking the half-assemblies in flight configuration.
