A thrust reverser including a sealing membrane designed to deflect at least one portion of a secondary flow towards a deflection cascade when a movable structure of the reverser is in the retracted reverse-thrust position, the reverser including a rear frame for supporting the deflection cascade. The reverser further includes an interface device between the sealing membrane and a rear cascade structure including the rear cascade support frame, the vanes located furthest back on the deflection cascade, and a bearing member via which the cascade bears against the rear cascade support frame. Moreover, the device forms an elastic clip mounted around the rear structure, and a rear clip portion whereof is arranged behind the structure.

Thrust reverser comprising means facilitating the mounting of a membrane for sealing off the secondary flow path

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.

Thrust reverser comprising movable cascades and a sealing membrane

A propulsion unit including: a gas generator including a compressor, a combustion chamber, a turbine, at least two compressed-air propulsion modules, each propulsion module including: a fan, a compressed-air turbine configured to drive the rotation of the fan, a manifold allowing the respective turbines of the compressed-air propulsion modules to be supplied with compressed air, wherein the manifold is configured to collect and mix: at least a portion of the flow that has passed through the combustion chamber of the gas generator, typically as it leaves the turbine, and at least one bypass flow, the bypass flow being a flow of air which is not passed through the combustion chamber of the gas generator.

Distributed propulsion with offset propulsion modules

An aircraft includes a fuselage carrying a nacelle of the aircraft offset relative to a wing of the aircraft. The nacelle forms an air inlet fairing of a propulsion assembly. The nacelle includes a lower wall and an upper wall delimiting together a height of the nacelle. The lower wall includes an air inlet edge being contiguous with a trailing edge of the wing.
