Abstract

A thrust reverser including a sealing membrane designed to deflect at least one portion of a secondary flow towards a deflection cascade when a movable structure of the reverser is in the retracted reverse-thrust position, the reverser including a rear frame for supporting the deflection cascade. The reverser further includes an interface device between the sealing membrane and a rear cascade structure including the rear cascade support frame, the vanes located furthest back on the deflection cascade, and a bearing member via which the cascade bears against the rear cascade support frame. Moreover, the device forms an elastic clip mounted around the rear structure, and a rear clip portion whereof is arranged behind the structure.
