An aircraft turbojet engine nacelle comprising an air intake assembly of substantially annular shape, the air intake assembly comprising an external wall and an internal wall which are connected to one another upstream by an air intake lip and downstream by an annular rear structure. The annular rear structure comprises, arranged concentrically, one or more monolithic panels forming a first annular zone and comprising one or more hollow casings forming at least a second annular zone, and at least one connecting ring which provides the connection with at least one of the external and internal walls. The annular rear structure thus has increased structural mechanical strength.

Aircraft turbojet engine nacelle comprise an increased-rigidity air intake

An aircraft nacelle comprising a first duct secured to an air intake and a second duct secured to a powerplant, the first duct comprising an exterior surface and an end portion connected to the second duct. The nacelle includes a hollow section piece in contact with the exterior surface of the first duct which extends over at least part of the circumference of that end portion of the first duct that is connected to the second duct.

Aircraft nacelle comprising a reinforced connection between an air intake and a powerplant

An aircraft nacelle with a connecting device between a first conduit of an air intake and a second conduit of a motor, both conduits being arranged end-to-end, the connecting device including an annular flange connected to the air intake, an annular flange connected to the motor pressed against annular flange of the air intake, the flanges extending in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the nacelle; bolt holes formed in annular flanges and disposed plumb to one another; and connecting elements located in bolt holes, for connecting the annular flanges, wherein at least one flange includes at least one opening interposed between a bolt hole and junction zone of the flange and/or between a bolt hole and outer edge of the flange.

Fastening device particularly suitable for the fastening between an air intake and an engine of an aircraft nacelle

A fastening device includes a first annular flange connected to an air intake, a second annular flange connected to a powerplant pressed against the second annular flange and fastening elements that allow the annular flanges to be linked. For at least a first fastening element, a blade is fitted between the first fastening element and the first annular flange, the blade including at least a central part linked to the first fastening element, radially mobile relative to the first annular flange, and at least one offset part for which at least radial centripetal displacement is limited relative to the first annular flange, the central part and the offset part being offset relative to one another along the direction of the circumference.

An aircraft nacelle includes an outside wall (), at least one air system with at least one air intake (), whereby the nacelle is connected by connecting element to a mast that is itself connected to the aircraft, with the connecting element allowing a relative movement between the nacelle and the mast in the longitudinal direction of the nacelle, whereby at the front of the junction zone with the nacelle, the mast includes an aerodynamic surface that is called a fairing () that covers and exposes a zone of the outside wall called an overlapping zone () based on the position of the nacelle () relative to the mast, characterized in that an air intake () for an air system is arranged at the overlapping zone ().

Nacelle comprising an air entrance in a cap

An aircraft nacelle includes an air intake () followed at the upper part by a part () integral with the mast, called a cap, and at least one door () with a curved profile, and a device for encircling it in the form of at least one flexible element (), guide elements () for allowing the at least one flexible element () to follow the curved profile of the at least one door, a first anchoring point () of the at least one flexible element () integral with a first edge () of the cap and another anchoring point of the at least one flexible element () integral with a second edge () of the cap, whereby the anchoring points () allow a relative translational movement, in a direction that is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the nacelle, between the cap () and the at least one door ().

Device for shrouding an aircraft nacelle

An aircraft nacelle includes an air intake that makes it possible to channel the air in a pipe in the direction of a pipe of a power plant that is arranged in the extension of the pipe, whereby the pipe of the air intake includes at least one panel that integrates an acoustic treatment with an acoustically resistive porous layer that is in contact with the aerodynamic stream that enters into the nacelle, at least one alveolar structure, and a reflective or impermeable layer that forms the rear surface of the panel, a flange that ensures the connection between the air intake and the power plant including at least one wing that is connected to the air intake by a number of connecting elements, characterized in that some of the connecting elements have axes that are secant with the edge of the panel that delimits the pipe of the air intake.

Device for connecting an air inlet with an aircraft nacelle actuator assembly

An aircraft nacelle includes an air intake followed at the upper part by a part that is integral with the mast, called a cap, and at least one door with a curved profile that includes a stiffening device arranged at the edge upstream from the door and which includes:
