Abstract
A device for closing and locking the shutters of an aircraft thrust reverser includes a lock having a latch which is motorized so as to complete the closure of a shutter utilizing energy supplied by the motor, thereby relieving the jack which is the prime mover of the shutter. The device includes a stop which opposes the latch and interacts with a counter-stop so as to immobilize the shutter in the closed position and thus reduce vibration and flapping of the shutter.
