Abstract:
A thrust reverser for a nacelle may include a translating sleeve. A plurality of linkless blocker doors may be coupled to the translating sleeve. The translating sleeve may translate along a line of action which is non-parallel to an engine centerline. The non-parallel translation of the translating sleeve may prevent interference between the translating sleeve and surrounding components.
