Displacement control device for variably adjusting the displacement of an axial piston hydraulic pump including a rotary shaft rotatable around a shaft axis. A torque can be applied for rotating the rotary shaft to open and close servo pressure lines to adjust the displacement volume of the axial piston hydraulic pump. Concentric to the shaft axis in a mid-portion of the rotary shaft a detent sleeve is positioned having an abutment area onto which, in the neutral position, a sliding element abuts. The detent sleeve, in operating conditions is rotatably fixed with the rotary shaft and turns with the rotary shaft and for neutral position adjustments in non-operating conditions, the detent sleeve and the rotary shaft are detachable from each other such that the rotary shaft can be turned relative and independently within the detent sleeve, which is held in its neutral position by the sliding element.

An actuating piston for a hydrostatic adjustment installation includes at least one sealing and guiding unit which is insertable into a circumferential recess of an actuating piston. The circumferential recess is composed of two regions, and has the effect of improving the guiding and sealing of the actuating piston. The actuating piston is arranged in an adjustment installation.

A variable stroke high pressure pump is disclosed. The pump uses a wobble plate design with dynamically variable tilt to provide continuous adjustment of pump stroke length and output. Dynamically variable tilt is accomplished using a linearly actuated tilt thruster rotationally coupled to the drive shaft to maintain a selected tilt of the wobble plate through the rotation of the wobble plate.
