Abstract
A thrust reverser system for a jet engine has a thrust reverser sleeve lock, preferably for each thrust reverser sleeve, that provides at least one of the redundant anti-deployment mechanisms of the thrust reverser. The thrust reverser sleeve lock has a lock pin that engages a thrust reverser sleeve when the thrust reverser sleeve is in a stowed position and the thrust reverser sleeve lock is in a lock position to prevent the thrust reverser sleeve from deploying. In an embodiment of the invention, the thrust reverser sleeve lock includes an single-action hydraulically actuated actutor to which the lock pin is affixed, the actuator extending the lock pin through a lock hole in the thrust reverser sleeve when the thrust reverser sleeve is in its stowed position and the thrust reverser sleeve lock is in a lock position.
