1. A thrust reverser system for a gas turbine engine having a nacelle surrounding a bypass duct, the thrust reverser system comprising:
a transcowl having a stowed position, a deployed position, and an open position, the transcowl being adapted to translate from the stowed position to the deployed position in an aft direction of the gas turbine engine to define a circumferential opening within the nacelle; and a hinge assembly coupling the transcowl to a fixed structure that does not translate when the transcowl is translated in the aft direction, the hinge assembly comprising first and second members coupled to each other, the first member being connected to the transcowl for translation therewith in the aft direction of the gas turbine engine, the second member being connected to the fixed structure, the second member defining a channel in which a portion of the first member is slidably received, the first and second members being configured to enable the portion of the first member to translate within the channel in the aft direction of the gas turbine engine corresponding to a translational movement of the transcowl relative to the nacelle between the stowed and deployed positions of the transcowl, the first and second members being further configured to enable the portion of the first member to rotate within the channel corresponding to a pivotal movement of the transcowl relative to the nacelle between the stowed and open positions of the transcowl. |
