LOCKING DEVICE FOR PIVOTING COWLS OF A THRUST REVERSER
The present disclosure provides a device for locking a first cowling and a second cowling of a thrust reverser of an aircraft propulsion assembly. The cowlings are mounted such that each cowl pivots around a longitudinal axis between a closed flight position and an open maintenance position. The locking device includes a telescopic connecting rod having at least one sliding shaft, a locking mechanism on a proximal end of a shaft on the second cowling, and a connecting rod support. The connecting rod support or the tubular element includes two walls each delimiting a hole, and the tubular element of the connecting rod or the connecting rod support has two support fingers which each extend longitudinally on a side of the tubular element into a hole. The holes engage with the support fingers when the cowlings are open and allow free movement of the support fingers in a closed-cowlings configuration.
