    Abstract: A nozzle device defines a passageway including an outlet to discharge working fluid to produce thrust. This device includes a vectoring mechanism having three or more vanes pivotally mounted across the passageway and a linkage pivotally coupling the vanes together. This linkage includes a first arm fixed to a first one of the vanes to pivot therewith about a first pivot axis, a second arm and a third arm fixed to a second one of the vanes to pivot therewith about a second pivot axis, and a fourth arm fixed to a third one of the vanes to pivot therewith about a third pivot axis. A first connecting link pivotally couples the first arm and the second arm together, and a second connecting link pivotally couples the third arm and the fourth arm together. The relative angular positioning of the arms with respect to the corresponding pivot axes and/or the arm links can be varied to define different vectoring schedules with the mechanism linkage. In one particular form, the nozzle is utilized with a lift fan of an aircraft to perform V/STOL operations.

    Abstract: A vectorable nozzle for directing the thrust produced by a gas turbine engine includes a duct, at least one toroidal nozzle segment, and a carrier ring for mounting the nozzle segment to the duct. The nozzle segment is hinged to the outer circumferential surface of the carrier ring about its toroidal axis. The carrier ring is rotatably mounted to the external surface of the duct at the downstream end thereof by means of a roller element bearing. The arrangement is such that the nozzle segment is moveable between a stowed location within the airframe space envelope and a deployed location. Once deployed the carrier ring is able to rotate the nozzle segment relative to the duct in order to vector the thrust produced by the engine.
