Pivoting door thrust reverser for a turbofan gas turbine engine
TLDR
In this paper, a pivoting arrangement for a thrust reverser door of a gas turbine engine is described, the pivot fitting having a base and a shaft projecting from a main side of the base.Abstract:
A pivot arrangement for a thrust reverser door of a gas turbine engine, the pivot fitting having a base and a shaft projecting from a main side of the base. The shaft receives a preferably curved pivot arm of the door to provide a low profile arrangement which improves performance when the doors are stowed.read more
