Torque limiter in particular for an actuator of the nacelle of an aircraft turbojet engine

摘要

The invention relates to a torque limiter for an actuator including a screw (101), a nut mounted on said screw, an actuation tube (105) rigidly connected to the nut and means (109, 133) for rotating said screw, said limiter being characterized in that it includes an abutment (115, 110) capable of: preventing the rotation of said tube (105) by friction simply by an axial force exerted by said screw (101) onto said nut during the movement thereof; and enabling the rotation of said tube (105) when said nut arrives at an axial abutment of said screw beyond a predetermined torque threshold defined by the axial force.

主权项

1. A thrust reverser for an aircraft nacelle, comprising:
a cowl configured to move between a direct jet position and a reversed jet position; and a torque limiter, the torque limiter for an actuator comprising:
a screw;a nut mounted on said screw;an actuation tube rigidly connected to the nut;an electric motor for rotating said screw; andan abutment, wherein said abutment prevents rotation of said actuation tube by friction by an axial force exerted by said screw onto said nut during movement thereof, and said abutment enables rotation of said actuation tube when torque exerted by the nut becomes greater than torque exerted by said abutment.
