Pump with symmetrical mounting holes for asymmetrical mounting arrangement
A pump includes a pump body. The pump may also include a pump mounting flange configured to mount the pump to an engine flange including four clocked mounting holes. The pump mounting flange may include a first set of four mounting holes corresponding to the four clocked mounting holes in a first orientation. The pump mounting flange may include a second set of four mounting holes corresponding to the four clocked mounting holes in a second orientation.
Duplicated hydraulic circuit with pressure regulation
The present invention relates to A device for supplying hydraulic power, the device comprising two hydraulic circuits jointly feeding multi-cylinder hydraulic power transmission means in which each cylinder is connected to a single one of the hydraulic circuits independently of the others. Each hydraulic circuit includes a hydraulic pressure and flow rate generator and a pressure control module controlling said hydraulic pressure and flow rate generator so as to regulate the pressure of said fluid flowing in said hydraulic circuit as a function of said pressure of said fluid flowing in each hydraulic circuit and possibly as a function of one or more parameters external to said device.

High rate safety shutdown system with hydraulic driven fluid ends
A method of controlling a high-pressure system having an engine, and a hydraulic pump having a swashplate includes inputting a maximum discharge pressure, a maximum allowable equipment pressure, a pressure relief valve (PRV) setting, a flowrate, and a maximum positive and negative rate of change of pressure; setting a work value to full power; setting a first position of the swashplate based on flowrate; determining: (a) if a discharge pressure is greater than the PRV setting; (b) if the discharge pressure is greater than the maximum allowable equipment pressure; and (c) if a rate of change of pressure is greater than the maximum positive rate of change of pressure or the maximum negative rate of change of pressure; and upon the occurrence of any of steps (a)-(c): (d) activating a PRV in the system; (e) setting the swashplate position to neutral; and (f) reducing the power to zero.
TORQUE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A VARIABLE DISPLACEMENT PUMP
The present invention relates to a hydraulic pump system including a variable displacement pump that generates an outlet pressure. The hydraulic pump system also includes a control system that decreases a displacement volume of the variable displacement pump in response to an increase in the outlet pressure and increases a displacement volume of the variable displacement pump in response to a decrease in the outlet pressure.
PUMP WITH SYMMETRICAL MOUNTING HOLES FOR ASYMMETRICAL MOUNTING ARRANGEMENT
A pump includes a pump body. The pump may also include a pump mounting flange configured to mount the pump to an engine flange including four clocked mounting holes. The pump mounting flange may include a first set of four mounting holes corresponding to the four clocked mounting holes in a first orientation. The pump mounting flange may include a second set of four mounting holes corresponding to the four clocked mounting holes in a second orientation.
DYNAMIC LUBRICATION FOR A PUMP
A pump includes a cam plate, and an input shaft for rotationally driving the cam plate. A pump housing at least partially surrounds the cam plate and defines a cam plate oil reservoir around at least a portion of the cam plate. A bearing support is at least partially disposed within the cam plate oil reservoir. The bearing support defines a bearing oil reservoir at least partially surrounding a portion of the input shaft. At least one passage extends between the bearing oil reservoir and the cam plate oil reservoir. Dynamic motion imparted on oil within the cam plate oil reservoir facilitates migration of oil from the cam plate oil reservoir through a bearing at least partially supported by the bearing support into the bearing oil reservoir and through the at least one passage into the cam plate oil reservoir.

VARIABLE STROKE PUMP
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.
