ABSTRACT:
A fluid distributor with a body of revolution, which is arranged around an axis of rotation and has a fluid passage communicating with a fluid source, as well as an exhaust passage, which is connected to this fluid passage and emerges from the side wall of the body of revolution, and fluid flows out of this exhaust passage as a fluid jet, in a direction which does not intersect the axis of rotation of the body of revolution, such that the body of revolution is set into rotation. To enable a back and forth motion of the body of revolution, with such an arrangement, between two stops, a jet baffle is provided, which is not connected to the body of revolution and which, when the body of revolution contacts the second stop, diverts the major portion of the fluid jet emerging from the exhaust passage in the direction of rotation, so that the fluid jet then acts on a supporting surface provided on the body of revolution to reverse the direction of rotation. A releasable brake is provided to retain the body of revolution in both positions. The fluid distributor can be used to guide missiles, for example in connection with quick-motion hot-gas valves.
