[0022] At present, the existing pump pressure type liquid rocket engine adopts a single turbine pump and single thrust chamber structure layout mode. The liquid rocket engine of this structure has the advantages of small external envelope size and convenient parallel combination use. However, the single turbine pump and single thrust chamber structure of the liquid rocket engine is not suitable for large-thrust liquid rocket engines. As the thrust increases, the design and production difficulty of the thrust chamber will significantly increase, the swing envelope of the engine will increase, the design and production difficulty of the swing mechanism will greatly increase, and the liquid rocket engine with single thrust chamber layout cannot realize the roll attitude control requirement of the rocket when used alone, and a roll control power device needs to be added, which increases the system complexity of the launch vehicle.
[0023] Based on this, referring to Figures 1 to 3 The embodiment of the present application provides a double-thrust-chamber 6 pump after swing liquid rocket engine, which comprises a rack, two gas swing devices 2, two thrust chambers 6 and a fuel gas assembly; the fuel gas assembly is communicated with the corresponding thrust chamber 6 through the two gas swing devices 2 respectively, and is used for providing fuel to the two thrust chambers 6 respectively. The thrust chamber 6 burns the fuel to generate thrust, and the thrust is transmitted to the rack through the gas swing device 2.
[0024] In actual installation, the first ends of the two gas swing devices 2 are fixedly arranged on the two sides of the rack respectively, the second ends are fixedly connected with the corresponding thrust chambers 6 respectively, and the two gas swing devices 2 and the two thrust chambers 6 are symmetrically distributed along the center line of the rack, and the fuel gas assembly is fixedly arranged in the middle region of the rack. Based on the above structure, that is, the first end of each gas swing device 2 is fixed with one side of the rack, and the two gas swing devices 2 are fixed on the opposite sides of the rack to play a balancing role. Each thrust chamber 6 is fixedly connected at the second end of the corresponding gas swing device 2, and specifically, the thrust chamber 6 can be fixedly connected with the second end of the corresponding gas swing device 2 through a flange.
[0025] Based on this, the two thrust chambers 6 in the embodiment of the present application can be respectively connected with the rack through the gas swing device 2 to transmit the generated thrust to the rack through the gas swing device 2, at this time, the gas swing device 2 is used as a force transmission mechanism. And the two gas swing devices 2 and the two thrust chambers 6 in the embodiment of the present application are symmetrically distributed along the center line of the rack, and the fuel gas assembly is fixedly arranged in the middle region of the rack, so that the symmetrical distribution structure can reduce the overall mass eccentricity of the engine.
[0026] In actual use, for a large-thrust or heavy liquid rocket engine, a double-thrust-chamber 6 engine structure layout scheme is more suitable, which can not only realize large thrust but also effectively reduce the design and production difficulty of the thrust chamber 6 and the swing mechanism, is more conducive to reducing the swing torque, improving the thrust-to-weight ratio of the engine, and the launch vehicle assembled with a single double-thrust-chamber 6 or multi-thrust-chamber 6 engine has the functions of pitch, yaw and roll control. Based on the above description, and each thrust chamber 6 in the double-thrust-chamber 6 pump after swing liquid rocket engine provided by the embodiment of the present application is connected with a gas swing device 2, so that the layout mode of the thrust chamber 6 and the gas swing device 2 can realize the function of independent swing of the two thrust chambers 6, and therefore the single engine can have a complete set of vector adjustment and control capability to make the rocket body produce pitch, yaw and roll control.
[0027] Finally, the two-pulse chamber 6 pump post-swing liquid rocket engine provided by the embodiment of the present application only involves two pulse chambers 6 in swinging, thus the thrust level of the pulse chamber 6 can be greatly reduced, and the envelope size of the pulse chamber 6 is also reduced, and on this basis, the swing envelope of the entire two-pulse chamber 6 pump post-swing liquid rocket engine will be greatly reduced, so it has the advantage of flexible internal layout of the rocket body, which is beneficial to improve the surface thrust of the rocket.

Wherein, the docking module can be any fixing structure that can fix the gas swing device 2 to the rack, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this.
[0029] Further, the fuel gas assembly in the embodiment of the present application is used to provide oxidant and fuel to the pulse chamber 6. The fuel gas assembly comprises a main turbine pump 9 and a gas generator 11, the gas generator 11 is fixed and communicated with the main turbine pump 9; the main turbine pump 9 is fixed and communicated with the gas inlet of the two gas swing devices 2 respectively.

Further, the end surface of the inlet of the gas conduit 8 is parallel to the end surfaces of the two outlets of the gas conduit 8, the two outlet pipes of the gas conduit 8 are symmetrically distributed along the center line of the gas conduit 8, and the included angle between the two outlet pipes of the gas conduit 8 is obtuse. Since the end surfaces of the inlet and outlet of the gas conduit 8 are parallel to each other, and the two outlet branch pipe structures are symmetrically distributed and obtuse, the center lines of the main turbine pump 9 and the two thrust chambers 6 are parallel to each other, and the overhead projection of the three centers is an isosceles triangle. Based on the above description, the gas conduit 8, the main turbine pump 9 and the two thrust chambers 6 are symmetrically distributed as a whole, which can reduce the overall mass eccentricity of the engine to a certain extent.
[0032] The gas generator 11 is fixedly connected with the main turbine pump 9 through a flange, and the center line of the gas generator 11 is perpendicular to the first plane in which the center lines of the main turbine pump 9 and the two thrust chambers 6 are located, and the second plane in which the center lines of the two thrust chambers 6 are located, and the two thrust chambers 6 and the two gas swing devices 2 are mirror-symmetrically arranged with respect to the first plane.

[0036] The two fuel rocking devices 7 arranged on the outlet conduits are used to ensure that the components upstream of the thrust chamber fuel supply pipeline 3 are fixed, so as to minimize the displacement of the fuel rocking devices 7 during rocking deformation, so that the engine alone has the complete vector adjustment and control capability for generating pitch, yaw and roll control of the rocket body. And the rocking centers of the four fuel rocking devices 7 are located in the same horizontal plane as the rocking centers of the two gas rocking devices 2.
