Abstract
An axisymmetric, converging-diverging turbojet-engine exhaust nozzle for jet deflection. The diverging flaps are connected by linkrods to a vectoring ring ( ). The vectoring ring ( ) is driven by linear actuators ( ) anchored in the stationary structure ( ). The linear actuators ( ) are connected by a swivel ( ) to the vectoring ring ( ) and are affixed to the stationary structure ( ) to absorb the tangential loads applied by the exhaust gases on the diverging flaps and to allow positioning the vectoring ring ( ). Preferably the linear actuator ( ) is connected by a sheath ( ) to the vectoring ring ( ), the sheath ( ) slidable on the actuator case ( ) and being displaceable in a radial plane passing through the turbojet-engine's axis.
