Abstract

See full text

A cascade assembly of a nacelle for a turbofan engine includes a cascade concentrically disposed about an centerline, and a translating sleeve constructed and arranged to move between a forward position and an aft position along the centerline. A deflection limiter of the cascade assembly includes a first surface facing at least in-part in a radial direction and a second surface facing at least in-part in an opposite radial direction. The first surface is carried by one of the cascade and the translating sleeve and the second surface is carried by the other of the cascade and the translating sleeve. The first and second surfaces oppose one-another for limiting deflection when the translating sleeve is in the aft position and are spaced axially apart when the translating sleeve is in the forward position.
