The invention relates to an axial piston machine comprising a drive shaft, a driving gear non-rotatably connected thereto with one or more driving gear pistons accommodated therein, whose piston stroke is adjustable by a swash plate, wherein at least one return spring acts on the swash plate and at least one adjusting piston is supported on the swash plate via an adjusting lever, a first and/or second stop is provided for the adjusting piston to limit the swivel angle of the swash plate, wherein a first stop is formed by the bottom of the blind hole within the connecting plate and/or a second stop is formed by a flat protrusion of the housing in the vicinity of the blind hole.

A cylinder block including plurality of piston chambers formed at intervals in circumferential direction; plurality of pistons fitted in respective piston chambers movable in expanding and contracting directions to reciprocate in the expanding and contracting directions; a valve plate in contact with the cylinder block rear end surface and including first and second ports communicating with piston chambers. A portion of each ports is close to a top dead center switching land formed between first and second ports as a portion having a narrow opening width in a rotation radial direction of the cylinder block. An auxiliary port is formed at the valve plate switching land. Auxiliary port pressure is maintained lower than pressure of a side port that is the first or second port. When the piston chamber lacks communication with the side port (first or second port), the piston chamber and auxiliary port communicate with each other.

The linear actuator comprises a double-chamber solenoid pump comprising at least one pump coil, a multi-way valve and at least one pump armature that can be moved by energizing the at least one pump coil and is provided with a switching armature by means of which the multi-way valve can be switched and which can be moved by energizing the at least one pump coil. In the method, both the switching armature and the pump armature are moved by energizing the pump coil.

In a piston pump assembly, cradle bearings support a swash plate on an inner surface of a housing assembly. The cradle bearing and/or the corresponding portion of the housing inner surface may have undercut portions allowing deflection of an inward portion of the cradle bearing when the swash plate is subjected to pressure forces from hydraulic fluid compressed within pump cylinders by the pump pistons. Deflection of the cradle bearings allows increased contact pressure to be further distributed across the engaging surfaces of the swash plates and the cradle bearings.

An axial piston device configuration that includes a drive shaft, a piston block, pistons, a constant velocity joint assembly, a drive plate coupled to the constant velocity joint assembly, a swash plate, shoes, and piston rods may be provided. The piston block has an interior that is coupled to the drive shaft via a first torque transmitting mechanical interface. The constant velocity joint assembly includes multiple components, at least one of which is coupled to the drive shaft via a second torque transmitting mechanical interface.

A swash plate bearing is disclosed. The swash plate bearing may have an arcuate cage member having at least one flange and a plurality of rolling elements rotatably coupled to the at least one flange. A coupling seat extends laterally from the at least one flange, the coupling seat may have an insertion hole. A link member may be rotatably coupled to the cage member, the link member having a central portion positioned between a first terminal portion and a second terminal portion. A first stem connects the central portion to the first terminal portion and a second stem connects the central portion to the second terminal portion. The central portion is positioned in the insertion hole.

A fluid machine for a pneumatic or hydraulic drive system, said fluid machine being able to work as a fluid motor or as a fluid pump, comprising: at least two piston assemblies each comprising a piston means (110a-c), the at least two piston assemblies being operable to cause sequential reciprocating movement of the pistons means (110a-c); a drive member (120) rotatable about an axis and providing an annular, wave-like surface (122) extending at least partially radially to the axis, towards which the piston means (110a-c) project, wherein, in case of working as a fluid motor, the pistons means (110a-c) are arranged to drive rotation of the drive member (120) about the axis at least by a pushing action on said wave-like surface (122) or, in the case of working as a fluid pump, the piston means (110a-c) are arranged to cooperate with said wave-like surface (122) so that rotation of the drive member (120) drives sequential reciprocating motion of the piston means (110a-c).

An inclined-axis axial piston machine includes a housing, a drive shaft and a cylinder barrel. The drive shaft is mounted in the housing so as to be rotatable with respect to a first axis of rotation and is integral with a flange. Each piston is coupled to the flange via a ball joint. A multiplicity of counting perforations are arranged in a periodically distributed and continuous manner over an outer circumferential surface of the flange. The housing accommodates a sensor arranged opposite the counting perforations such that rotation of the drive shaft causes a signal change at the sensor. Each counting perforation is formed integrally from the flange, in the form of a recess having a single continuous perimeter. A side wall of the recess, starting from the perimeter, extends uninterruptedly, without sharp bends or offsets, over the entire circumference of the perimeter.

The invention relates to a cam machine with a control mechanism which will find application in various fields of mechanical engineering, such as compressor machines, hydraulic pumps, internal combustion engines and other types of engines in various land, sea and air vehicles, or in stationary units.

The created cam machine improves the contact between the cam profiles (15a, 15b) of the cam bushings (16a, 16b) and the followers (1a, 1b). The main improvement of the machine is in the design of the regulating mechanism, which increases the reliability and the service life of the cam machine. In addition, simple and reliable control mechanisms are integrated in the machine, which at the same time simplifies the process of adjusting the cam machines.

The present disclosure relates to an axial piston machine, such as a pump or motor. The axial piston machine, in on example, includes a pivotable displacement adjustment plate, the displacement adjustment plate having a first side supported by a first hydrostatic support arrangement and a second side supported by a second hydrostatic support arrangement. Further, in the axial piston machine one or both of the hydrostatic support arrangements include a large area support and a small area support which can be fluidly separated from each other.
