ABSTRACT:
An actuating mechanism is disclosed for a thrust reverser of a turbojet engine having an engine cowling with a reverse thrust opening, a thrust reverser door pivotally connected to the engine cowling so as to pivot between forward and reverse thrust positions, and a linear actuator having a casing with an extendable and retractable piston rod. The piston rod is connected to the thrust reverser by a first connection forming a first connection point. An interface bracket is fixedly attached to the turbojet engine structure and engages a mounting flange in a connector affixed to the actuator casing at a second connection point, the mounting flange being in contact with the interface bracket at a third connection point, the first, second and third connection points lying in a straight line.
