    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a device for locking a first cowling and a second cowling of a thrust reverser of an aircraft propulsion assembly. The cowlings are mounted such that each cowl pivots around a longitudinal axis between a closed flight position and an open maintenance position. The locking device includes a telescopic connecting rod having at least one sliding shaft, a locking mechanism on a proximal end of a shaft on the second cowling, and a connecting rod support. The connecting rod support or the tubular element includes two walls each delimiting a hole, and the tubular element of the connecting rod or the connecting rod support has two support fingers which each extend longitudinally on a side of the tubular element into a hole. The holes engage with the support fingers when the cowlings are open and allow free movement of the support fingers in a closed-cowlings configuration.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a rear assembly of a turbojet engine nacelle that includes a thrust reverser fixed structure having at least one half-cowl mounted on a beam pivotally hinged by at least one hinge, a suspension mast on which the fixed structure is movably mounted, a hatch for access to the hinge of the half-cowl, and a fireproof sealing device which includes a sealing gasket adapted to provide sealing between a median section of the nacelle and the beam area. The sealing gasket includes a tubular gasket type lower portion which extends at least partially over a seal bearing edge of the half-cowl that is adapted to cooperate with a seal bearing wall of the mast and an upper portion including an elastically deformable sealing sheet extending from the seal bearing wall of the mast to the rear face of the hatch for access to the hinge.
