The nacelle of the invention includes an air-inlet front section, a middle section for encasing the fan of the turbofan (7) and a rear section including means for connection to a pylon to be connected to the rigid structure or an airplane. The rear section includes a structural framework (18) having at least one aerodynamic smoothing and acoustic panel (21). The acoustic panel (21) is secured on the structural framework (18) by floating or elastic fixation means so that said acoustic panel (21) can be deformed in a direction (31) essentially centrifugal and radial relative to the turbofan (7) in the presence of overpressure air (3) in the engine compartment.

1. A nacelle for a bypass turbofan comprising a front air-intake section, a mid-section designed to surround a fan of the turbofan and a rear section having means for coupling to a mast designed to be connected to a fixed structure of an aircraft, said rear section comprising a structural framework
1. A nacelle for a bypass turbofan comprising a front air-intake section, a mid-section designed to surround a fan of the turbofan and a rear section having means for coupling to a mast designed to be connected to a fixed structure of an aircraft, said rear section comprising a structural framework onto which is mounted at least one aerodynamic and acoustic smoothing panel, wherein said acoustic panel is not fixed and is attached to the structural framework by floating or elastic attachment means, so as to allow the acoustic panel to deform in a substantially centrifugal radial direction relative to the turbofan in the presence of over pressurized air in an engine compartment, wherein said floating or elastic attachment means comprise a nut facing a hole passing through the structural framework, and designed to receive and retain a shank of a screw mounted in a reinforcing bush housed in a hole passing through the acoustic panel,wherein said nut comprises a base attached to the structural framework and having a housing in which the nut itself is mounted so as to move in translation on an axis of said hole passing through the structural framework, the elastic attachment means comprising a return spring being provided in this housing in order to return the nut itself to a rest position at a distance from the structural framework. 2. The nacelle as claimed 1, wherein the reinforcing bush comes into direct contact with the structural framework, and wherein the screw is mounted with a slight clearance in the reinforcing bush and has a nonconical head, so as to produce the floating attachment means. 3. The nacelle as claimed in claim 1, wherein the elastic attachment means comprises an elastomeric ring interposed between the panel and the structural framework. 4. A nacelle for a bypass turbofan comprising a front air-intake section, a mid-section designed to surround a fan of the turbofan and a rear section having means for coupling to a mast designed to be connected to a fixed structure of an aircraft, said rear section comprising a structural framework onto which is mounted at least one aerodynamic and acoustic smoothing panel, wherein said acoustic panel is not fixed and is attached to the structural framework by floating or elastic attachment means, so as to allow the acoustic panel to deform in a substantially centrifugal radial direction relative to the turbofan in the presence of over pressurized air in an engine compartment, wherein a heat-protection mat, designed to be interposed between the structural framework and the acoustic panel, is mounted by means of retention elements on the acoustic panel. 5. A nacelle for a bypass turbofan comprising a front air-intake section, a mid-section designed to surround a fan of the turbofan and a rear section having means for coupling to a mast designed to be connected to a fixed structure of an aircraft, said rear section comprising a structural framework onto which is mounted at least one aerodynamic and acoustic smoothing panel, wherein said acoustic panel is not fixed and is attached to the structural framework by floating or elastic attachment means, so as to allow the acoustic panel to deform in a substantially centrifugal radial direction relative to the turbofan in the presence of over pressurized air in an engine compartment, wherein the acoustic panel comprises at least two longitudinal slots for discharging the over pressurized air in the nacelle. 6. The nacelle as claimed in claim 4, wherein the heat-protection mat has, in a vicinity of at least two discharge slots, a tile-like overlap capable of allowing a deformation of the acoustic panel without affecting heat protection. 7. The nacelle as claimed in claim 5, wherein the acoustic panel comprises at least one inspection hatch with rectilinear cutouts or scalloped cutouts. 8. The nacelle as claimed in claim 7, wherein peripheral seals are associated with the cutouts of the inspection hatch or hatches.
