Abstract
An axisymmetric, converging-diverging and swiveling exhaust nozzle includes converging flaps ( ) driven by an axially displaceable drive ring ( ). The diverging flaps ( ) are connected by linkrods ( ) to a pivoting ring ( ). The pivoting ring ( ) is mounted in swiveling manner on a spherical segment ( ) fixedly joined to the structure ( ). In an embodiment variation, the spherical segment ( ) is mounted by a sliding connection on the stationary structure. A rotation-blocking system ( ) precludes the rotation of the spherical segment ( ) about the axis X of the turbojet engine.
