Missile steering appts. for guided missile - has generator feeding drive gas to thrust nozzles on radially opposite sides of missile longitudinal axis

摘要

The thrust nozzles (6) receiving the drive gas from the gas generator rotate around the missile longitudinal axis (A), and with the aid of a spoiler plate (13) are covered, with which the extent of cover of their mouths is adjustable. The gas generator (2) is rotatably located around the longitudinal axis of the missile (1), and the thrust nozzles are integrated in its housing (3). The rotary position of the rotating spoiler plate (13) in relation to the gas generator is varied by an electromagnet (18). The gas generator is pref. driven by an electric motor, although as an alternative a spring drive may be used. Another possibility for its operation is for air rudders extending out of the missile to drive it around the longitudinal axis of the missile. USE - To steer a guided missile.
