The invention relates to the field of rocket engineering, in particular to the nodes of oscillation of the combustion chamber of liquid
rocket engine (LRE), and can be used to set the geometric axis of the camera, swinging in the same plane, in a predetermined
position with high accuracy.

The proposed design of the device relates to mechanical means that provide the necessary fixation of the elements of the thrust
transmission and mount the camera: Zapf, traverse to the frame of the engine.

Known node swing chamber liquid propellant rocket engine with afterburning RF patent for the invention №2159352 comprising a
camera mounted on the gimbal and bellows node, where the additionally introduced two support rings, one of which is suitable for
airtight connection with gazivoda and the second with the combustion chamber, the bellows unit includes a bellows in the form of
shirred casing mounted coaxially between said support rings. In the depressions of the outer corrugations of the above-mentioned
bellows installed protective power of the ring, the bellows is located within a gimbal ring that is connected through the hinges of the
power brackets with said support rings (IPC F02K 9/66, 21.01.1999).

The disadvantages of the known technical solutions should include the need for the manufacture of parts and Assembly units,
uchastvuya� in securing the location of the geometric axis of the chamber and the axes of oscillation of hinge assemblies, with
high accuracy, because the controls and settings to compensate for inaccuracies of manufacture and Assembly, this unit does not.

Known node swing cameras 1 motor unit 2 of the third stage of the carrier rocket "Soyuz-2" (working drawings D.-00.000 SAT,
DM.76-03.000 Coll of development JSC kbkha, Voronezh - prototype, Fig.1) containing fixed by means of bolts 3, 4 to the frame 5

As in the node swing camera - analog / node swing - prototype missing the special design of the adjusting elements providing the
setting the geometric axis and the axis of swing of the chambers in a predetermined position, therefore, the main disadvantage of
the prototype device is the difficulty and complexity of carrying out the requirements of the technical specifications on the engine for
installation of the above mentioned axes of the camera with a given accuracy offset�of (±1 mm). To meet these requirements, the
dimensions of the frame, and traverse the camera, determining a location above the axes of the camera should be several tenths
of a millimeter, which requires the use of high-tech machines and tooling. But even with their use of possible deviations from the
defined technical requirements.

washers 29, 30 increased thickness to 3 mm. Between threaded sleeve 35 and the axle 9 mounted pin 36.

Node swing the swing of the camera in the same plane, as in the four-chamber engine thrust vector control is performed by two
pairs of cameras in the planes I-III, II-IV, to the location of the geometric axis 7 of the camera 1 with high demands (see Fig.2): the
offset of the center "O" of the coordinates y, z must not exceed ±1 mm, and the angular deviation of the geometric axis of the
camera relative to its nominal position with the center of rotation "O" should not exceed 15'. The deviation of the geometric axes of
the cameras from the preset position causes complications in the management system and total loss of thrust vector. For high-
precision installation of the geometrical axis of the camera is placed in the stocks in the absence of the bolts 23, 24 mounting the
traverse 4, 5 to the frame 3 (see Fig.6). Then, it is determined displacements of the center of the "O" relative to the axis z and the
center "O" (see Fig. 1, 2) relative privalochnoj plane P of the frame 3 of the engine 1 (x coordinate). In the gap between the bases

oval grooves 33, 34 traverse 4, 5 and the threaded holes in the base frame 3.

The deviation of the center of the "O" along the y-axis is compensated by the presence of oval slots in the beam 4, 5 and adjusting
the strips 25, 26. After installing the geometric axis 7 of the camera 1 to the zero position are installing double pivot washers 29, 30
and tightening of bolts 23, 24 with their locking wire 32 and the fillings 31 (see Fig. 6). The additional fixation of the threaded sleeve
35 against rotation relative to the trunnion 9 is achieved by the installation of the pin 36 in the bore in mating the thread of their
connection and preload it lock washer 12.

Since the execution oval grooves 33, 34 slightly reduces the bearing surface of the bolt heads 23, 24 on them in the boom 4, 5,
installation thickened double bearing washers 29, 30, which are provided with round holes for the bolts, makes up for this lack of
bearing area under the bolt head and, moreover, samostanovlenie together with bolts, double pivot washers create reliable
clamping traverse the base of the frame.
