  • Publication number: 20120037723
    Abstract: The invention relates to a torque limiter for an actuator including a screw (101), a nut mounted on said screw, an actuation tube (105) rigidly connected to the nut and means (109, 133) for rotating said screw, said limiter being characterized in that it includes an abutment (115, 110) capable of: preventing the rotation of said tube (105) by friction simply by an axial force exerted by said screw (101) onto said nut during the movement thereof; and enabling the rotation of said tube (105) when said nut arrives at an axial abutment of said screw beyond a predetermined torque threshold defined by the axial force.

  • Publication number: 20120031071
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system for controlling a plurality of actuators (15) that can displace a mobile panel (13, 17) pertaining to a nacelle (1) of an aircraft, said system comprising at least two motors (16) that can drive the actuators (15). The system also comprises two separate control units (33, 35), each unit being configured in such a way as to control and feed at least one motor that is not fed or controlled by the other control unit. The invention also relates to a nacelle comprising such a system.

  • Publication number: 20120031995
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system for actuating a plurality of actuators (15) that can move a mobile panel of an aircraft nacelle. Said system comprises at least two motors (16) that can drive the actuators (15), the two motors (16) being controlled and supplied by at least two separate control units (33, 35), and the actuators (15) being mechanically interconnected by a mechanical transmission (37). The invention also relates to a nacelle comprising such an actuating system.

  • Publication number: 20100218479
    Abstract: The invention relates to a linear telescopic actuator for moving a first (10b) and a second (10a) element relative to a stationary element (102). Said actuator comprises a base (101) that is to be connected to the stationary element (102) and is used as a cavity for a first rotationally locked rod (106) which can be translated by a drive shaft (104) that is to be connected to rotational driving means (107). One end (108) of said first rod is to be connected to the first element that is to be moved. The actuator is characterized in that the first rod (106) supports a second rod (117) which is aligned therewith and one end (118) of which is to be connected to the second element that is to be moved. Said second rod (117) can be rotationally locked and can be translated by a second drive shaft (112, 115) which extends through the base and is connected to rotational driving means (113, 111).

  • Publication number: 20100164153
    Abstract: The invention relates to a vibration damper (5) that can be provided between an electronic housing (1) and the fixed structure of an aircraft nacelle (3). It comprises a block of an elastic material (10), a screw (7) for securing the block (10) to fixed structure (3), and means (11, 29a, 29b) for securing said housing (1) onto said block (10). It is characterised in that it comprises means (13, 15) for limiting the travel of said attachment means (11, 29a, 29b) relative to said securing screw (7) in at least two directions of the space, wherein the limitation means (13, 15) are sized so as to prevent any strain on the screw (7) that could lead to the fatigue and/or breakage thereof.

  • Patent number: 6257541
    Abstract: A vehicle seat slide includes a fixed section, a mobile section, a memory shoe sliding along the fixed section and defining a memorized position of the mobile section, a first actuator which simultaneously unlocks the slide and fastens the shoe to the mobile section, and a second actuator which unlocks only the slide. The second actuator operates a fastener device of the shoe via a cable.

  • Patent number: 6126133
    Abstract: This concerns a slide rail for a vehicle seat, comprising a fixed section, a mobile section sliding on the section, and a catch movable vertically between a locked position and an unlocked position allowing the mobile section to slide. The catch is controlled by a rigid rod in the shape of a crankshaft which pivots on the mobile section and which slides in an inclined groove integral with a slider which is movable transversally on the mobile section.
