Actuation device for moving a movable cover of a thrust reverser
First Claim
1. An actuation device for displacing the movable cover of a thrust reverser, including:
- an actuator including a first element and a second element movably mounted in translation with respect to the first element, one of the first element and the second element being a screw, and the other being a nut capable of cooperating with the screw, so that a rotation of the first element with respect to the second element brings about translation of the second element with respect to the first element,a locking device including a lock portion movable in rotation with respect to the first element between a locked position wherein the lock portion prevents rotation of the first element and an unlocked position wherein the lock portion allows rotation of the first element, and a drive member capable of driving in rotation the lock portion toward the unlocked position,a lock inhibitor device including an inhibiting part movable in translation with respect to the first element between a first position wherein the inhibiting part allows rotation of the lock portion between the locked position and the unlocked position, and a second position wherein the inhibiting part prevents rotation of the lock portion toward the locked position.

Abstract
The invention relates to an actuation device (1) for moving a movable cover of a thrust reverser. Said actuation device includes: —an actuator including a first element (4), such as a screw, and a second element (5), such as a nut, that engages with the first element such that rotation of the first element causes translation of the second element; —a locking portion (31) rotatable between a locked position, wherein the locking portion prevents the first element (4) from rotating, and an unlocked position, wherein the locking portion (31) allows the first element (4) to rotate; and —an inhibiting part (45) that is translatable between a first position, wherein the inhibiting part (45) allows the locking portion (31) to rotate, and a second position, wherein the inhibiting part (45) prevents the locking portion (31) from rotating into the locked position.
