Abstract: A mixing tube with multiple shapes is provided, allowing additional injection of gas in order to keep the flow detached from the second shape in an ascent phase and to bring about, in a descent phase, a controlled detachment as a result of the change of slope between the two shapes. A propulsion nozzle for an engine of a spacecraft or aircraft is provided including such a mixing tube and a method for controlling the speed transition of the propulsion gases in such a nozzle in accordance with the altitude. Also, a method is provided for vectorising the thrust in such a nozzle by radial and asymmetrical injection of gas and a control method which prevents re-attachment of the jet to the second shape of such a propulsion nozzle for an engine of a spacecraft when it is in the take-off or landing phase.

Abstract: An installation tool for a fastener of the “pull screw” type, comprising a breakable gripping element includes a body, a first sleeve movable axially and rotationally in the body that can drive the gripping element, a second sleeve movable axially in the body and immovable in rotation, and a driving device provided with a turning shaft. The shaft comprises a first free wheel for driving the first sleeve in rotation, a second free wheel, and a driving element positioned coaxially around the second free wheel. The driving element cooperates using a helical link with the second sleeve. The first free wheel drives the first sleeve in rotation in a first rotation direction of the shaft. The second free wheel brings the driving element in rotation in a second rotation direction of the shaft to move the second sleeve axially, allowing full setting in a single operating sequence.
