Abstract
The turbojet includes, linking two of its parts as a main nacelle portion and a rear nacelle portion, a device which moves them relative to one another, for example in order to open a reverse gas thrust slot. The device includes a sleeve and two rods which are coaxial connected together by two screw links and two locking devices which may be engaged independently, such that the deployment of one of the rods results in the opening of the slot and the movement of the other rod, controlled by the same device, only occurs under specific turbojet maintenance circumstances.
