Patent abstract
A nozzle for a jet engine generally includes a nozzle rim and a bendable duct for communicating an exhaust flow generated by the engine to the nozzle rim. A gimbal joint pivotably couples the nozzle rim to supporting structure. The gimbal joint allows the nozzle rim to be pivoted about a first axis and a second axis, thereby allowing changes to the vector at which the exhaust flow is discharged from the nozzle rim.
