| Zusammenfassung: | The present invention relates to thrust reversers for turbofan engines and, in particular, to thrust reversers of the type having a translating sleeve, a type of thrust reverser that is often termed a "cascade type."
A cascade type thrust reverser for an air duct of a turbofan engine includes a lock mechanism mounted on a track beam that supports the translating sleeve. A locking portion of a lock member of the lock mechanism is engageable with a slider by which the translating sleeve is supported by the track beam to lock the translating sleeve in the forward, closed position. |
