A variable displacement pump-motor includes a pump-motor having a plurality of cylinders and pistons, and further including a main shaft rotatable relative to the system body. A hydro mechanical control system includes a plurality of main stage valves in communication with the plurality of cylinders. Each of the main stage valves is configured to open and close a cylinder of the plurality of cylinders to one or more of high or low pressure fluid sources. A pilot spool valve is in selective communication with each of the main stage valves. The pilot spool rotates with the main shaft. The pilot spool includes coding configured to operate each of the main stage valves to open and close the respective cylinders to the one or more high and low pressure fluid sources according to a translational position of the pilot spool and rotation of the pilot spool by the main shaft.

A variable-displacement hydrostatic axial piston motor of bent-axis construction includes a drive shaft, a cylinder drum that pivots in a pivoting plane, and a one-piece port plate nearly symmetrical with a central plane and with two working ports. The motor further includes an adjusting device with an adjusting piston arranged in the port plate, a control valve arranged on the port plate and with a control valve piston, a feedback spring arranged in the port plate and clamped between the adjusting piston and the control valve piston, a counterbalance valve with a counterbalance spool, and two secondary pressure-limiting valves inserted as cartridge-type inserts into the port plate. The counterbalance spool is accommodated in a valve bore in the port plate. The two working ports are situated on the port plate opposite to the first side. The two secondary pressure-limiting valves are arranged on the same side as the port surfaces.

An axial piston machine includes a housing, an actuating piston, and a closing screw. The housing includes a cylinder bore, a recess, and a fluid channel. An end of the bore open to an outside of the housing has an internal thread. The recess is located in a region of the internal thread, and is deeper than a thread depth of the internal thread so that a floor region of the recess is free from thread turns. The piston is linearly moveable in the cylinder bore, and is configured to adjust a displacement volume of the machine. The screw is screwed into the internal thread so as to form a closed chamber between the piston and the screw. The fluid channel opens into the floor region of the recess, and is fluidically connected to the cylinder chamber.

A well service pump system supplies high pressure working fluid to a well. The pump system includes a closed-loop hydraulic circuit for actuating a plurality of working pump assemblies. The pump system is powered by a motor, which transfers mechanical energy to a plurality of pumps, which, in turn, provide hydraulic fluid to operate hydraulic ram cylinders, and thereby operate the working pump assemblies. Each of the polished rods of the hydraulic ram cylinders is connected axially to a plunger rod end of the working fluid end cylinder to operate the working pump assembly.
