Latches for nacelle inner structure sections

An assembly for an aircraft propulsion system, comprising:

• a stationary structure;
• a first pivotable structure disposed to a first side of the stationary structure and pivotally coupled to the stationary structure, the first pivotable structure including a first outer structure section, a first inner structure section and a first bifurcation section extending radially between the first outer structure section and the first inner structure section, and the first inner structure section extending circumferentially about an axis to a first end of the first inner structure section;
• a second pivotable structure disposed to a second side of the stationary structure and pivotally coupled to the stationary structure, the second pivotable structure including a second outer structure section, a second inner structure section and a second bifurcation section extending radially between the second outer structure section and the second inner structure section, the second inner structure section extending circumferentially about the axis to a second end of the second inner structure section, and the second end of the second inner structure section attached to the first end of the first inner structure section by one or more inner structure latches;
• a first blocker door assembly;
• a second blocker door assembly;
• and
• a flowpath extending circumferentially uninterrupted about the axis at least three-hundred and thirty degrees from the first bifurcation section to the second bifurcation section;
• wherein the first bifurcation section and the second bifurcation section form a single bifurcation;
• wherein the first blocker door assembly and the second blocker door assembly are disposed next to and radially outboard of the flowpath in a stowed configuration;
• wherein the first blocker door assembly and the second blocker door assembly are spaced apart about the bifurcation and about the one or more inner structure latches thereby permitting, in a deployed configuration, at least a portion of the flowpath that is circumferentially uninterrupted about the axis from the first bifurcation section to the second bifurcation section.
