Patent ID: 8529196

Claim:
A nacelle for a jet engine, comprising: a rear section made up of an outer structure which, together with a concentric inner structure including an inner panel intended to surround a downstream portion of the jet engine, defines an annular flow duct for a secondary stream: exhaust means formed in the inner panel and comprising at least one excess pressure flap equipped with spacing means for guaranteeing a minimum discharge flow rate to an outside in an event of an untimely excess pressure, said spacing means being produced with aid of at least one strut equipped with locking means designed to lock said strut in the spacing position in the event of excess pressure requiring the opening of the excess pressure flap, wherein the strut comprises a hollow casing in which a rod can slide, said casing having an end fixed in the excess pressure flap and said rod having an end fixed in the inner panel, and the locking means are produced with the aid of a locking finger housed in the casing and having a first end mounted pivotably about an axis in a region of the end of the casing and a second end housed in a cavity formed in the rod, and the locking means are produced with the aid of elastic return means designed so as to longitudinally off-center said locking finger with respect to the cavity of the rod when said rod has slid in the casing, thus preventing a rearward return.
