Patent ID: 11391242

Abstract:
A nacelle system having a translating structure is disclosed. In various embodiments, the system includes a fixed structure; a thrust reverser having a translating sleeve configured to translate relative to the fixed structure and in response to a first hydraulic system; and a variable area fan nozzle having a translating nozzle configured to translate relative to the translating sleeve and in response to a second hydraulic system. In various embodiments, the first hydraulic system and the second hydraulic system include a primary hydraulic actuator, the primary hydraulic actuator having a primary hydraulic fluid end and a primary gaseous fluid end; a secondary hydraulic actuator having a secondary hydraulic fluid end and a secondary gaseous fluid end; and a hydraulic supply line configured to fluidly couple the primary hydraulic fluid end of the primary hydraulic actuator to the secondary hydraulic fluid end of the secondary hydraulic actuator.
