The thrust reverser includes a reverser cowl of which a downstream part of the reverser cowl forms a jet nozzle, cascade vanes fixed upstream from the reverser cowl, thrust reverser flaps, and an actuator. The thrust reverser is translatable under an effect of the actuator between a folded position
The thrust reverser includes a reverser cowl of which a downstream part of the reverser cowl forms a jet nozzle, cascade vanes fixed upstream from the reverser cowl, thrust reverser flaps, and an actuator. The thrust reverser is translatable under an effect of the actuator between a folded position of the thrust reverser flaps for operation of the nacelle in a direct jet mode, and a deployed position of the thrust reverser flaps for operation of the nacelle in a reverse jet mode. In particular, the stretching of the actuator results in causing a variation in a nozzle section of the jet nozzle as long as the stretching is below a predetermined value, and exposing the cascade vanes and deploying the thrust reverser flaps so as to perform the reverse jet mode beyond the predetermined value.

1. A turbojet engine nacelle comprising a fixed part, a movable front frame, and thrust reverser means, the fixed part comprising a fan cowl which is fixed downstream from a fan casing of a turbojet engine, said thrust reverser means comprising: a reverser cowl, a downstream part of the reverser cow
1. A turbojet engine nacelle comprising a fixed part, a movable front frame, and thrust reverser means, the fixed part comprising a fan cowl which is fixed downstream from a fan casing of a turbojet engine, said thrust reverser means comprising: a reverser cowl, a downstream part of the reverser cowl forms a jet nozzle;cascade vanes fixed upstream from the reverser cowl;thrust reverser flaps; andan actuator,said thrust reverser means being translatable by the actuator between at least one retracted position of the reverser cowl corresponding to a folded position of said thrust reverser flaps for operation of the nacelle in a direct jet mode, and a deployed position of the reverser cowl corresponding to a deployed position of said thrust reverser flaps for operation of the nacelle in a reverse jet mode,wherein a movement of the actuator below a predetermined value results in causing a variation in a nozzle section of the jet nozzle, wherein when the actuator is moved, the reverser cowl, the cascade vanes, and the thrust reverser flaps are moved in concert downstream from the fixed part of the nacelle without deploying the thrust reverser flaps, and movement of the actuator beyond the predetermined value results in exposing the cascade vanes and deploying the thrust reverser flaps for operation of the nacelle in the reverse jet mode, and wherein the movable front frame and a fixed deflecting edge are aligned with the cascade vanes in the reverse jet mode thus improving guiding of a secondary air flow toward the cascade vanes. 2. The turbojet engine nacelle according to claim 1, wherein the fan cowl is configured to partially cover an upstream edge of the reverser cowl, during the actuator is stretched, and the reverser cowl, the cascade vanes, and the thrust reverser flaps are moved in concert downstream from the fixed part of the nacelle. 3. The turbojet engine nacelle according to claim 1, wherein the thrust reverser flaps extend upstream from a downstream edge of the fan casing, when the nacelle is in the direct jet mode. 4. The turbojet engine nacelle according to claim 1, wherein the fan casing and the fan cowl form a cavity containing the cascade vanes, for any movement of the actuator below a predetermined value. 5. The turbojet engine nacelle according to claim 1, wherein the thrust reverser flaps receive, on a convex side thereof, at least one transverse pressure seal and at least one longitudinal pressure seal, said pressure seals providing sealing in the direct jet mode between the thrust reverser flaps and the reverser cowl. 6. The turbojet engine nacelle according claim 1, wherein at least one pressure seal is fixed downstream from the fan casing, providing, during direct jet or reverse jet operation of the nacelle, the sealing between a cold air tunnel and the fixed part.
