Abstract

A thrust reverser in a two dimensional jet engine exhaust nozzle employs a plurality of reverser apparati that maintain a constant flow throat area, for example, in the reverse throat mode. A single reverser apparatus includes an actuator that operates through a lever upon linkage and a coupler to drive a set of parallel vanes and at least one independent vane. The parallel vanes are connected by a parallelogram of links to the coupler. The independent vanes move in a manner as defined by a cam having a preselected path therein that causes the independent vanes to move in a desired manner to provide the constant throat area.
