A drive assembly includes a drive motor at least in part contained in a housing and having a rotor rotating an output shaft. A selector mechanism, at least in part contained in the housing, is movable into one of a plurality of orientations corresponding to one of a plurality of drive motor settings. An actuator, at least in part contained in the housing, is arranged to move the selector mechanism into one of the plurality of orientations. The actuator has first and second pistons each disposed in a piston chamber of the housing for movement by hydraulic pressure. The second piston is arranged in contact with the first piston and configured to aggregate and transfer forces from hydraulic movement of the first piston and the second piston to move the selector mechanism.

A hydrostatic axial piston machine includes a housing, a cylinder barrel, and a drive shaft, which are connected together and mounted in the housing so as to rotate jointly about a first axis. The machine also includes a swash plate mounted in the housing so as to pivot about a second axis to adjust a swept volume of the machine. The machine further includes a hydraulic actuating apparatus, which has an actuating piston that delimits an actuating chamber. The machine also includes a regulating valve attached to a flange face of the housing. The regulating valve has connections situated in the flange face that are used to communicate hydraulic fluid to and from the actuating chamber. The flange face is arranged obliquely so as to enclose an angle with the second axis that is greater than 0 and smaller than 90.

An opposed swash plate type fluid pressure rotating machine in which a first piston and a second piston projecting from opposite ends of a cylinder block reciprocate in a cylinder, respectively following a first swash plate and a second swash plate includes a center spring for biasing the cylinder block toward the second swash plate. A housing hole (biasing force receiving part) for receiving a biasing force of the center spring is formed on one end part of the cylinder block. The tip of a second neck (reaction force receiving part) for receiving a reaction force from the second swash plate is formed on the other end part of the cylinder block. The cylinder block is biased only toward the second swash plate by the center spring.

The cooling and lubricating (1) system is provided for a piston sealing device (2) for a piston (3) which comprises a fixed skirt (7) and a sliding skirt (12) joined together by an interskirt mechanical connection (13) to axially compress a continuous extensible segment (15) under the action of a sliding skirt spring (20), said system (1) adding to said device (2) a sliding skirt thrust ring (21) so as to insert between the fixed skirt (7) and the continuous extensible segment (15) a flow valve (22) traversed by the interskirt mechanical connection (13), said valve (22) being held at rest away from the fixed skirt (7) by a valve return spring (30) on the one hand, and comprising a flow calibration orifice (27) on the other hand.

A hydrostatic axial piston pump of swashplate construction, which is also configured to be operated as a motor, has a stationary control plate against which a rotating cylinder drum is tensioned. During operation, a tilting tendency of the cylinder drum arises in the direction of that quadrant of the control plate which is operatively connected to the first part of the displacement stroke of the pistons. The control plate has a supporting device configured for the cylinder drum. The supporting device is arranged adjacent to an outer edge of the control plate in the first quadrant thereof. The supporting device is configured to be formed by a hydrostatically relieved additional field.

A hydrostatic axial piston machine includes a control disk that has a permanent relief field and at least one hydrostatic auxiliary relief field.

A hydraulic machine comprising: an outer casing comprising a first front plate and a second front plate, a shaft rotatable about a main axis, a first rotor comprising a first rotor body rotatable with said shaft around said main axis, and a plurality of first pistons with respective spherical ring heads fixed to said first rotor body, a second rotor comprising a second rotor body and a plurality of second pistons with respective spherical ring heads, wherein the second rotor is rotatable about a secondary axis, inclined with respect to said main axis, a plurality of sleeves that are separate and independent from each other, each having a cylinder open at opposite ends and engaged on opposite sides by a first piston and by a second piston.

The disclosure relates to a hydrostatic axial piston machine having a housing, having a drive shaft, to which a flange disc is fastened in a rotationally fixed manner, and having a swash plate, to which a rotor disc, driven by the drive shaft or the flange disc, is rotatably mounted, and having a plurality of displacement units arranged distributed between the flange disc and the rotor disc and around the axis of the drive shaft, each displacement unit comprising a cylinder sleeve and a piston which extends into the cylinder sleeve and has a ball head and a spherical joint head which extends into the cylinder sleeve, wherein during operation, the piston plunges more or less far into the cylinder sleeve.
