Abstract
The turbojet engine inlet and exhaust covers are permanently installed at the inlet and exhaust outlet or nozzle of an aircraft turbojet engine installation. The covers preclude the entrance of small animals, windblown debris, snow, and/or other contaminants into the engine inlet or exhaust while the airplane is inoperative. The covers have an iris-type shutter configuration, each cover having a plurality of leaves pivotally attached to a circumferential stationary housing that is attached to the engine or nacelle. A rotary ring is rotated through a small arc to pivot the shutter leaves inward and outward to close and open the engine opening. The rotary ring may be driven by an electric motor, or by hydraulic or pneumatic power. The system may be automated to close according to engine temperature after flight, and/or to open upon initiation of the engine start sequence for the aircraft.
