The present invention relates to a copying cutter provided with a cylindrical or conical body having a spherical end, constituting the active portion of the cutter, said end including a plurality of flutes inclined at a determined angle .theta. relative to the longitudinal axis of the cutter and formed along circular arcs at a determined distance x from the midplane P of the cutter, an inside face and an outside face of each of the flutes constituting, after machining, respectively a cutting face and clearance faces of each tooth of the cutter. The clearance faces comprise a first clearance face and an additional clearance face presenting at least a first facet. The cutting face has a cutting angle .gamma. given by the following equation: ##EQU1## where R is the radius of the cutter. The present invention also relates to a method of manufacturing the cutter.

A reaction gas containing methyltrichlorosilane (MTS) and hydrogen is injected into the infiltration chamber (30) in which the substrate is placed and where predetermined infiltration temperature and pressure conditions obtain. The gas entering the infiltration chamber is preheated (by plates 46) so as to bring it up to temperature before coming into contact with the substrate. The residual gas containing the remainder of the reaction gas together with gaseous reaction products is extracted from the chamber. Infiltration is performed at a temperature lying in the range 960.degree. C. to 1050.degree. C., and preferably in the range 1000.degree. C. to 1030.degree. C., under a total pressure of not more than 25 kPa, and preferably equal to 7 kPa to 12 kPa, and the concentration of silicon-containing species in the residual gas is lowered at the outlet from the infiltration chamber, e.g. by injecting an inert gas (via 70).

The present invention relates to a system for feeding the engines of a space vehicle with at least one liquid propellant, the system comprising for the purpose of storing said liquid propellant under a pressure greater than the feed pressure, firstly a main tank having no liquid expulsion device, and secondly an auxiliary tank that is smaller than the main tank and that is provided with a device for separating the liquid phase from the gas phase, switching means enabling the auxiliary tank to be selectively refilled with liquid propellant from the main tank; such that liquid propellant that is free from pressurization gas bubbles can always be delivered regardless of the flight conditions of the vehicle, and in particular when it is not possible to take said liquid propellant from the main tank.

The downstream portion of the diverging part of the nozzle of the rocket engine is extended by an ejectable diffuser which, downstream from the zone where it is connected to the diverging part, presents a zone of smaller cross-section that acts during a first stage of flight in the presence of significant outside pressure to recompress the flow of hot gases and to prevent a flow separation from appearing along with the wall of the diverging part. The ejectable diffuser may have a streamlined throat which constitutes the zone of smaller cross-section.

In a rocket engine nozzle with a selectively smaller outlet cross-section, the nozzle comprising a converging portion which receives the gases produced in a combustion chamber, a nozzle throat of small cross-section and a diverging part connected to the nozzle throat and terminating at its downstream portion in a gas jet outlet cross-section defining a high cross-section ratio, a releasable annular obstacle is connected to the downstream end of the diverging part so as to define at the outlet of the diverging part a zone of selectively smaller cross-section which ensures stability of the separation of the flow of hot gases relative to the wall of the diverging part during a first phase of flight.

The centrifugal pump with an open-faced impeller comprises at least one open-faced impeller having blades placed inside a casing defining both a delivery pipe and a suction pipe facing the base of the blades situated in the vicinity of a central shaft for driving the impeller. An active axial balancing system for the rotary assembly is integrated in the impeller and comprises a balancing chamber interposed between the rear face of the body of the impeller and an outer rear portion of the casing, the impeller itself acting as the balancing turntable. A shroud-forming intermediate part is prevented from rotating relative to the casing and is interposed between an outer front portion of the casing and the impeller, a cavity is formed between the outer front portion of the casing and the intermediate part to receive a back pressure of predetermined value serving, in operation, to maintain small clearance without contact between the intermediate part that is prevented from rotating and the blades of the impeller.

The gas is preheated by means of at least one screen disposed transversely relative to the flow of gas penetrating into the enclosure. The screen is provided with passages for the flow of gas and is fixed inside a peripheral wall to define a channel to enable the gas to flow through the preheating apparatus, it is also provided with fins which project from its surface, the screen and the fins being made of a refractory sheet material, in particular a sheet of laminated graphite.

The present invention relates to an electrically controlled leakproof valve having a fluid feed channel and at least one channel for delivering said fluid, rotary displacement of a distributor plug in said valve being under the control of an actuator. The actuator comprises an axially pierced rotor through which the fluid from the feed channel flows without headloss, the actuator being connected to the valve body in leakproof manner without using dynamic sealing devices. The present leakproof valve is particularly suitable for use in corrosive environments, and in particular under cryogenic conditions.

The retractable-gasket ball valve includes sealing means fixed on the valve body, and including, in particular, a gasket for providing sealing between the shutter member and the valve body when the shutter member is in a closed position, and further including a slide for causing said sealing means to move between a retracted position which is also a rest position in which the sealing means is spaced spart from the spherical shutter member, and a contact position in which the gasket is pressed against the shutter member. The valve includes a first resilient element of low stiffness which tends to separate the sealing means from the shutter member when the valve is brought to its open position, and a second resilient element of relatively greater stiffness which is put under tension by the slide a few degrees before the mechanical closure position of the valve when the gasket is in contact with the shutter member, and which exerts control pressure on said gasket in contact with the shutter member.
