Abstract

1,173,851. Deflecting propulsion jets. GENERAL MOTORS CORP. 20 June, 1968 [14 July, 1967], No. 29372/68. Heading B7G. A rectangular terminal portion 7 of the exhaust duct of a jet-propulsion engine has two swingable outer deflecting vanes 11 respectively adjacent each outer wall 10, and a central swingable vane 15 mounted midway between the outer vanes, such that there is a convergent, rectangular throat on either side of the vane 15. A linkage, Fig. 1, comprising an actuating arm 21, a rocker arm 25 rigidly fixed to the wall 9 by bracket 29, a bell-crank 33, links 22 and 31 pivotally connecting the arms 21 and 25, and 25 and 33 respectively is operated by an actuating piston 36 fixed to the bell-crank by the rod 34; the arms 21, 33 being mounted on the shafts 13 on which the vanes 11 are fixed. An arm 40 rigidly attached to the rocker arm is joined to arm 41, which is attached to the shaft 17 on which the vane 15 is fixed, by the link 42. The linkage allows concurrent movement, and hence deflection of the jet, of the three vanes such that the nozzles remain convergent and of substantially constant area over the range of travel of the vanes, Fig. 2.
