ABSTRACT:
A fluid supply and synchronizing mechanism are provided for a jet engine exhaust nozzle. The exhaust nozzle has flaps which are moved by flap mounted actuators which move with the flaps. The fluid supply includes a supply tube, a return tube and a strut for each actuator. The two tubes and strut are connected to each actuator for movement with the actuator. The strut prevents flexing of the tubes during movement. The synchronizing mechanism interconnects the flaps so that movement of any one flap is transmitted to all other flaps thereby retaining nozzle symmetry.
