ABSTRACT:
A system that allows for quick and easy adjustment of the position of a thrust reverser pivot door comprises an actuator rod end bolt and a pair of pivot door hinge pins, all of which have an eccentric element. The actuator rod end bolt includes a cylindrical portion along the center of the length of the bolt that has an eccentric element which protrudes beyond the outer surface of the cylinder. Each pivot door hinge pin includes a cylindrical portion along the center of the length of the pin that has an eccentric element which protrudes beyond the outer surface of the cylinder. Rotation of either the actuator rod end bolt or the pivot door hinge pins or both the actuator rod end bolt and the pivot door hinge pins adjusts the position of the pivot door.
