The invention relates to the field of rocketry, in particular to the node swing combustion chamber of a liquid rocket engine (LRE)
with staged combustion cycle after the turbine of the turbopump Assembly in the combustion chamber, and can be used in piping
systems with working fluid of high pressure and high temperature.

The proposed technical device relates to a mechanical means for the flight control of the missile by the deviation of a gas jet
engine swing his camera.

Such known mechanical means applies the node swing the camera in the same plane on a bearing unit relative to the fixed nozzle,
the inlet one of the components of the fuel (GB, A, 1008156, UK).

This engine is made without afterburning gas generator and has a low pressure in the arteries. The lack of site swing is its low
reliability due to the need to have a seal between the rotating together with the camera pipeline and the casing on the pump intake.
In addition, for the supply of the second component from the turbopump Assembly (TNA) to the camera is required in the pipeline
three bellows expansion joint or swivel piping with pump TNA, which greatly complicates and increases the cost of construction of
the device is.

Known closer to the claimed node swing the camera node swing of liquid rocket engine RD first stage of the launch vehicle (LV)
"proton" (Construction and design of the rocket engine under the editorship of Prof. gg of Kahuna, M. engineering, 1989, page 356,
Fig.14.4) with afterburning of generating gas in the chamber, which is set by the trunnions in the bearings in the traverse, mounted
on a power rack PH, and in the input lines for supplying the fuel component to the turbopump Assembly of the engine
symmetrically about the axis of the swing set blocks of flexible pipelines (OSH or bellows units), fixed flanges which are fastened to
the flanges of the rocket pipelines, and movable flanges are connected with the flanges of the highways of the engine, between the
flanges OSH completed unloading swivel (prototype).

The restrictions on the use of blocks of flexible pipelines this site swing the camera LRE in one plane is not installed in the mains
supply of the high temperature gas from the turbine to the head of the combustion chamber due to the absence in their design of
cooling devices, and protective shields.

In addition, blocks of flexible pipelines installed in highways engine RD low-pressure fuel components, so they do not have the
reinforcing elements of the bellows, the venture is capable of withstanding high pressure gas from the gas generator.

Because between blocks of flexible pipelines and traverses are aggregates (TDA) and other elements (pipelines) of the engine,
i.e., OSH is not docked directly to Travers and have no connection with the pins of a camera, a limitation of the prototype is the
difficulty of ensuring symmetry of the bellows relative to the axis of the swing due to deviations in the manufacturing units of the
input highways.

The objectives of the proposed technical solutions are providing thrust vector control four-chamber liquid propellant rocket engine
pitch, yaw and roll through the swing of each of his cameras in the same plane, the supply of the fuel components, including
oxidative gas to the camera, increasing reliability, ensuring uniform bending of the flexible element, the health of the bellows gas
path, the decrease in the resistance swing hinge units, improving the accuracy of installation of the geometric axis of the chamber,
the mass loss traverse while ensuring necessary strength, OSH, as well as the dimensions of the site swing.

Pin 4 of the chamber 3 (Fig.3) from the side of the flexible element (bellows) 15 fixed in traverse 7 threaded sleeve 24 and
secondline lock washer 62. Beams 7, 8 (Fig.9) is made of aluminium alloy AMG6, with yoke 7 made of 63 samples of metal on
both sides.

The moments of resistance of the cross-sections e-E, W-W, And-And traverse is designed and implemented in such a way that
they provide sufficient strength along the length of the traverse when loading thrust chamber 3 of the engine. For fastening OSH 10
and 11 of the bar provided with a stud 64.

Cavity 65, 66 bearing 6 (Fig.3) formed by the cross beams 7, 8, the fixed bracket is inami 12, 13 OSH 10, 11 and pins 4, 5, 2/3 of
the volume is filled with grease VNII NP-282. To ensure the integrity of these cavities, preventing leakage of lubricant when heated
between the above node swing set PTFE sealing ring 67, ..., 70.

The device operates as follows. When the engine is a gas turbine turbopump Assembly through gasovod 71 (Fig.2) and Flex
(bellows) 37 OSH 10 gas flows through line 72 into the cylinder chamber 3. Similarly, through a flexible pipe 16 and the pipe 72 to
the camera is supplied fuel ("G"), and through TCI 19, 20 (Fig.5) and 46 (Fig.4) - other working bodies: the nitrogen purge, the
starting fuel, and also plays the fuel line at the engine inlet.

In the chamber 3 components of fuel burn and expire through the nozzle, creating thrust.

Effort from stock steering actuator 73 (Fig.1) camera 3 can be rotated around the axis of the swing arm 14 in the angle range of
�4,5�.

Connected to the camera head 3 gas line 71 (Fig.2) turn off the other end with the movable bracket 18 OSH 10 (Fig.4) around the
axis of the swing arm 14, and the ring 22 is rotated around the threaded sleeve 24 (Fig.3), and plug 24A (Fig.4) with your finger 74
(Fig.7) inside of the hinge 25 and the rings 26 of the hinge device. Connection OSH 10 with a threaded sleeve 24 and the hinge
device (Fig.4) are heavily loaded (they & other fix spot labeling shall indicate the Flex (bellows) from tensile forces gases),
therefore, to reduce the resistance of the swing (friction) on the surface of the threaded sleeve 24 applied grease, and to exclude
"drafts" on the surface of the hollow finger 74 - soft anti-friction coating 60 type Aftal".

Highway fuel 72 (Fig.2) rigidly connected to the camera 3, similarly rotates around the axis of the swing arm 14 is movable end of
the flexible element 16. TCI 17 from the side of the flexible arm 18 is stationary, and from the side of the stationary bracket 12
when the bending can freely move inside the sleeve 75.

When turning the camera 3 around the axis of the swing arm 14 (Fig.3) together with the roll 5 rotates the platen 34, made it in one
piece. The platen 34 with its flat side surfaces 35 communicates with a fork 33 and rotates the movable bracket 21, and with it the
movable box-like housing 54 with movable ends of the TCA 50, 51 connected to the piping 76 tilting of the camera unit (Fig.1) on
the engine. On the other hand OSH 11 made hinge device connecting the movable and stationary casing 54, 55 (Fig.5, 8).

OSH 11 does not bear heavy loads at work, so its hinge device on the finger hollow 59 applied solid lubricant coating type
"molybdenum disulfide", reduce friction and resistance when turning OSH.

Application in the design of the OSH system 10 is s cool flexible element (bellows) 37 ensured the strength properties of the latter
during the flow of high temperature (800 K) gas turbine and thereby increase the reliability of the engine.

Installation in the hollows of the corrugations of the flexible elements (bellows) 37, 38, strengthening of reinforced springs 39, 40
(see Fig.6), respectively, increased the strength properties of these bellows and ruled out the possibility of their "blow-up" (increase
in diameter from the internal pressure).

Connection OSH 10, 11, mobile (Zapf camera) and stationary (traverse) the parts node of the swing axis of the swing allowed to
provide thrust vector control by tilting the camera in a predetermined angle range, the supply of the fuel components to the camera,
a uniform bending of the flexible element, the setting accuracy of the geometric axis of the camera, as well as to reduce overall
size and weight of the node swing.

The most rational of the proposed site swing the camera rocket engine with afterburning can be used in multi-chamber rocket
engine of small and medium-rods provided with one TNA, from which the gas turbine is fed to the head of chambers, swinging in
the same plane and working under high pressure at high temperatures.
