A thrust reverser for an aircraft propulsion assembly, including a fixed structure equipped with at least one cascade as well as a radially inner delimiting wall of a secondary vein, and a movable structure including at least one reverser cowling, the cascade being arranged, in the forward direct thrust position, in a housing of the reverser cowling, and, in the retracted thrust reversal position, the wall reveals a passage opening of the secondary vein towards the cascade, the thrust reverser also including at least one sealing membrane designed to deflect at least one portion of the secondary flow. A hook is provided for securing the membrane to a rear cascade support frame, and to the radially inner delimiting wall of the secondary vein.

Thrust reverser comprising fixed cascades and a sealing membrane

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.
