A hydrostatic piston machine has an adjustment element that is adjustable for varying a displacement volume, and a rotating cylinder part having a plurality of cylinder bores with pistons that are supported on the adjustment element and delimit a displacement chamber. Each displacement chamber is moved in an alternating manner by a connecting opening to overlap a low-pressure control opening situated on a low-pressure side of a stationary control part and a high-pressure control opening situated on a high-pressure side of the control part. Two switching regions are situated between the low-pressure control opening and the high-pressure control opening, the pistons changing direction at a dead center within the switching regions. The position of the adjustment element is determined from a pressure profile which is a function of the variable size of the displacement chambers in a switching region, the variable size depending on the position of the adjustment element.

A hydrostatic axial piston machine has a drive shaft penetrating a housing on either side. In this case, the mechanically weaker of the two shaft ends is strengthened by an undercut being eliminated, said undercut defining the minimum diameter of the shaft end and thus of the entire drive shaft. Instead, the strength of the relevant shaft end is increased by a displacement of a circular bearing surface for a rolling bearing radially outwardly and away from the rolling bearing. In this case, the circular bearing surface is displaced below a compression spring which clamps the cylinder drum against a distributor plate. The resulting spacing between the circular bearing surface and the rolling bearing remaining in place is bridged by a sleeve or by a ring. A concave rounded shaft shoulder is simply formed below the sleeve and/or the ring.

A hydrostatic axial piston machine includes a double-acting actuating cylinder configured to adjust the piston displacement. The actuating cylinder has two actuating chambers that are connected to two spatially separated cartridge valves. The two cartridge valves are inserted obliquely into a wall section of the axial piston machine. The wall section on the one hand forms a wall of the housing of the axial piston machine and on the other hand forms a wall of the actuating cylinder.

A hydraulic rotating machine includes a case, a cylinder block housed in the case and having a plurality of cylinders, a piston reciprocatively inserted into the cylinder; a swash plate configured to reciprocate the piston as the cylinder block rotates, a tilt control piston configured to biase the swash plate and control a tilt angle of the swash plate, and a stopper mounted to the case, the stopper being configured to define a minimum tilt angle of the swash plate. The stopper has a sliding surface for slidably supporting the tilt control piston.

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 method teaches a control function, preferably a characteristic curve, of a hydrostatic motor of a traction drive of a work machine when in drive mode. The traction drive is provided with the hydrostatic motor and a hydrostatic pump, which is hydraulically connected to the hydrostatic motor. The method includes setting a pivot angle of the hydrostatic motor while taking into account a desired velocity of the work machine when in the drive mode, and checking whether predefined conditions are met. If the predefined conditions are met and a current velocity differs from the desired velocity, the method includes correcting the control function of the hydrostatic motor by taking into account a difference between the desired velocity and the current velocity. At least one value of the corrected control function of the hydrostatic motor is taught during the correcting.

A swash plate-type axial piston pump, in particular for hydraulic systems, has a cylinder drum (3) rotatable about an axis of rotation (7) in a pump housing (1) and in which pistons (9) are arranged axially movable. The actuating ends of the pistons are accessible from outside of the cylinder drum (3) and are supported at least indirectly on a swash plate (15). In order to set the stroke of the pistons (9) and the fluid system pressure generated, the swash plate can be swiveled to the desired angle of inclination relative to the axis of rotation (7) by an adjustment device (21), which has at least one swiveling lever (23) that can be deflected and returned in at least one direction by an actuator and that each has in at least one hydraulically actuated actuating cylinder (31, 43) one actuating piston (35) acting on one end on an articulation point (29) of the swivel lever (23). One actuating piston (35, 47) has at its end, facing away from the articulation point (29), a guide surface (73), which is an integral part of the actuating piston (35, 47) and is in contact with an assigned guide surface (33, 45) of the actuating cylinder (31, 43). At least one compensator (75, 70, 59) is orients the guide surfaces (73; 33, 45) in their respective positions relative to each other.

The piston head (42) of the servo piston (40) can be pressurized such that the servo piston (40) can move linear relative to a servo cylinder (12) formed in the servo housing (10). The servo assembly unit (100) further includes a movable output element (49) protruding outside of the servo housing (10), which can be mechanically coupled to a displacement element (102) of a variable displacement hydrostatic unit (100).

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.
