Abstract
A pod for a turbojet engine includes an outer cowl having a structure with at least one opening and a panel pivotably mounted about an axis between a closed position and an open position, and a system for actuating the panel designed to lock the panel in closed position and to move same between the closed position and the open position thereof. The actuation system includes a lateral connecting rod connected to the panel and to the structure, pivoting relative to the structure about a first pivoting axis and about a second pivoting axis, and a linear actuator attached to the lateral connecting rod. The actuator system is designed to move the lateral connecting rod during the extension of the actuator, and the lateral connecting rod exerts a force on the panel during the movement thereof, pivoting the panel about the axis thereof.
