    Abstract: A fan assembly includes a fan duct, an inlet fan, and an outlet guide vane assembly. The inlet fan includes blades adapted to force fan exit air toward an aft end of the fan duct. The outlet guide vane assembly is located in the fan duct downstream of the inlet fan and is configured to adjust a direction of the fan exit air received from the blades. The outlet guide vane assembly includes a first plurality of outlet guide vanes including a first outlet guide vane configured to rotate to a first angle so as to redirect the fan exit air in a first direction and a second outlet guide vane configured to rotate to a second angle so as to redirect the fan exit air in a second direction. The second outlet guide vane is located at a different circumferential position than the first outlet guide vane.

    Abstract: Embodiments may include an actuation system for an exhaust nozzle of a gas turbine engine. The actuation system may comprise a plurality of flap assemblies including a plurality of convergent flaps movable between first and second convergent positions and a plurality of divergent flaps movable between first and second divergent positions. Each of the plurality of divergent flaps may extend from a respective one of the plurality of convergent flaps. The system may further include a first sync ring rotatably carried by an engine body and configured to synchronously move the divergent flaps between the first and second divergent positions and a second sync ring rotatably carried by the engine body and configured to synchronously move the convergent flaps between the first and second convergent positions. A method may translate rotation of the sync ring to movement of a vehicle surface between radially outward and inward positions.

    Abstract: A method and system for imparting a linear motion to a flexible shaft is disclosed. The system includes a bellcrank having a first arm, a second arm, and a first pivot pin therebetween. The system further includes an actuating device coupled to the first arm and configured to apply a force to cause the bellcrank to rotate about the first pivot pin. Still further, the system includes a second pivot pin coupled to a rod-end of the flexible shaft and further coupled to a slotted hole on the second arm. Yet still further, the system includes a follower surface on the rod-end of the flexible shaft and configured to slide on a cam surface machined on the second arm. Upon application of the force to the first arm, the flexible shaft moves in a substantially linear motion.
