An aircraft propulsion unit including a nacelle and a turbojet engine. The aircraft propulsion unit includes an external envelope, at least one fan casing, at least one actuator, and at least one support structure. The external envelope includes fan cowls. The fan casing cooperates with the fan cowls to define an interior space configured to house a thrust reverser configured to be displaced between a first position and a second position. The actuator configured to move the thrust reverser between the first position and the second position The support structure connects the fan cowls and the fan. The support structure includes at least one aperture configured to allow passage of part of the actuator.

Aircraft propulsion unit

A thrust reverser for an aircraft propulsion assembly, including at least one sealing membrane designed to deflect at least one portion of the secondary flow towards a set of cascades when the movable structure of the reverser is in the retracted thrust reversal position, the reverser also including a first flexible hook connecting a first end of the membrane to the fixed structure of the reverser, a second hook connecting a second end of the membrane to the fixed structure or to the movable structure, the second hook being fixed to the radially inner delimiting wall of the secondary vein, or guided by an internal guide fixed to the same radially inner delimiting wall.

Thrust reverser comprising movable cascades and a sealing membrane

An air intake for a nacelle of an aircraft engine includes a substantially cylindrical outer wall, a substantially cylindrical inner wall, a front lip, a front mounting flange, and a support structure. The front lip connects the substantially cylindrical inner wall and the substantially cylindrical outer wall. The front mounting flange is configured to cooperate with a rear flange of a wall of the aircraft engine forming a fan casing. The support structure comprises a lower end configured to be secured to the fan casing, by the rear flange, and an upper end in contact at least with a downstream portion of the outer wall. The support structure includes access apertures configured to be crossed by maintenance tools during operations of maintenance of the air intake.

Nacelle air intake and nacelle comprising such an air intake

A nacelle for a propulsion assembly, the nacelle including a front internal structure having a framework formed of longitudinal beams and including removable, dismountable or retractable panels which are provided to facilitate the access for maintenance to the parts of the motor shrouded by these panels.

Nacelle for a propulsion assembly with a very high bypass ratio, comprising a removable and structural front internal structure

An air intake includes a substantially cylindrical inner wall, a substantially cylindrical outer wall, a front lip connecting the inner wall and the outer wall, a front mounting flange, and a support structure. The front mounting flange is configured to cooperate with a rear flange of a wall of an aircraft engine. The support structure is configured to be secured to the wall of the aircraft engine at a location longitudinally downstream of the mounting flange. The outer wall includes a downstream end configured to be positioned in a junction area flush with a front end of a fan external cowl. A portion of the outer wall being configured to bear at least against the support structure. The support structure is configured to be secured to the wall of the aircraft engine so that a load path passes directly from the outer wall towards the fan casing.

A propulsion unit includes a nacelle, a turbojet engine, and a thrust reverser having gratings provided with movable thrust reversal gratings arranged around an annular duct for fresh air from the turbojet engine. The propulsion unit further includes actuators arranged around the annular duct and each actuator has a front end attached to the turbojet engine and a rear end which translates movable rear covers and gratings for opening, in the annular duct, radial passages which receive said gratings. The propulsion unit further has lifting points that are arranged around the annular duct for lifting the turbojet engine. At least one of the lifting points is formed on a beam for attaching an front end of an actuator.
