    摘要: A propulsion system with a pintle for variable thrust is constructed such that the pintle contains a shaft at its fore end which passes through an opening in the thrust chamber wall and extends into a boss on the outside surface of the thrust chamber. A dynamic seal that maintains the pressurization of the thrust chamber while allowing movement of the pintle is positioned inside the boss, between the pintle shaft and the boss, and actuation of the pintle is achieved by a rack affixed to the fore end of the pintle and a gear that engages the rack. The dynamic seal, rack and gear are thus external to the thrust chamber, providing the thrust chamber with a compact external envelope, a greater thermal standoff, or both.

    摘要: A missile includes a control system having divert and attitude control system thrusters with control valves. Each of the control valves has a nozzle plate having a plurality of small nozzles therein. The nozzle plate includes a pair of portions, one of which is rotatable relative to the other. Control of flow through the nozzle plate may be effected by relative positioning of the portions of the nozzle plate. An upstream convergent portion of the nozzle plate may be fixed relative to the missile, with a downstream throat and/or divergent portion of the nozzle plate moveable. Movement of the movable portion of the nozzle plate may be accomplished by use of an actuator that is external to the missile body. The control valve provides a simple, lightweight and compact way of controlling flow from a divert thruster.

    摘要: A thruster valve has a continuously positionable piston between a closed position and a maximum open position. The piston moves in response to the difference in pressure between the pressure in the intermediate annulus and the pressure behind the piston. A pivotable flapper valve regulates this pressure difference. When a change in thrust is required, the position of the flapper is changed causing a change in this pressure difference which causes the piston to move until the desired thrust level is obtained.

    摘要: A device for controlling a spacecraft by gating gas, the device comprising a nozzle, a gas feed duct, a gate having a seat and a plunger interposed between the feed duct and the nozzle, and control means for opening and closing the gate in order to put the feed duct selectively into communication with the nozzle. The seat of the gate is secured to the nozzle and the nozzle is movable such that the gate is opened and closed by displacement of the nozzle, which displacement is driven directly by the hot gas, without calling on an auxiliary fluid.

    摘要: A liquid fuel rocket engine comprises a housing having an outer annular wall and an inner annular wall which define therebetween a combustion chamber of substantially uniform cross section and leading to a converging wall section and a nozzle throat of narrow dimension. Means are provided to vary the nozzle throat section during operation of the engine in order to obtain better performance operation of the engine. The means for varying the dimension comprises a thermal arrangement whereby the cooling of the housing walls are divided up into sectors through which a propellant component is circulated. The temperature of the circulated component and the quantity of component which is circulated are advantageously controlled in order to vary the thermal expansion of the various sector portions and thereby change the axial and radial position of the walls defining the nozzle throat section. This is done either by controlling the propellant component which is directed through each of four separate sectors of the housing parts making up the outer and inner walls of the housing or by controlling only the cooling rate of the outer walls to vary the boundaries of the nozzle throat. The control is accomplished by a globe valve member which is pivoted in order to vary the distribution flow of a propellant component through each of a plurality of flow paths for regulating the cooling of the various portions of the inner and outer housing walls. In addition a mechanical means may be provided to actually vary the position of one or both of the outer and inner walls so as to control the nozzle throat section.
