A hydraulic machine including: a casing rotatably mounted relative to a shaft; first brake means constrained to rotate with the casing; second brake means constrained to rotate with the shaft, and adapted to co-operate with the first brake means; a braking piston associated with return means and tending to exert a braking force; and a brake-release chamber adapted to be connected to a pressure force so as to apply a brake-release pressure selectively to the braking piston, so as to enable the first and second brake means to be separated; said hydraulic machine including a sweeping channel arranged in the shaft so as to define a leakage flow between the brake-release chamber and an internal volume of the casing.

A hydraulic pump assembly for a vehicle is provided, comprising an electrical motor, a hydraulic pump driven by the electrical motor, and a centrifugal regulator connected with a pressure overflow valve connected to the oil outlet of the hydraulic pump, characterized in that the pump assembly further comprises at least two input check valves and at least two output check valves arranged such that a first pressure outlet port is formed when the motor is rotating in a first direction, and a second pressure outlet port is formed when the motor is rotating in an opposite direction.

A hydraulic motor includes a motor mechanism that rotates by hydraulic liquid that is supplied/discharged from a hydraulic liquid pressure source through one of a first motor passage and a second motor passage. The hydraulic motor comprises a casing that defines a casing chamber which accommodates the motor mechanism, and a flushing passage that is in communication with the casing chamber and extracts a portion of the hydraulic liquid from a low pressure side among the first motor passage and the second motor passage and leads it to the casing chamber.

A radial piston machine includes a housing, rotor, first braking member, and brake ring with a second braking member. The rotor is mounted in the housing to be rotatable relative to an axis of rotation, and has an end face facing in a direction of the axis of rotation. The first braking member is positioned on the end face. The housing has a body defining a ring-shaped extension relative to the axis of rotation. The brake ring is positioned to surround the extension and is configured to be movable in the direction of the axis of rotation so as to bring the second braking member into braking engagement with the first braking member. The brake ring is further configured to positively engage with an inner radial side of the extension to limit a twisting between the housing and brake ring.

A four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device includes a housing, plunger assemblies, an eccentric spindle rotatably disposed on the housing, pilot-operated check valves one-to-one corresponding to the plunger assemblies, two-way cartridge valves one-to-one corresponding to the plunger assemblies, a distribution shaft and a confluence plate. A reversing slide valve is disposed on the confluence plate. A working method of a four-quadrant radial piston hydraulic device is also provided. When the radial piston hydraulic device is used as a hydraulic motor and a hydraulic pump, it is capable of realizing two-way rotation, which solves a limitation of valve flow distribution in motor application.

A bent-axis machine comprises a housing having a control cover and a piston drum which is rotatably mounted in the housing on a valve plate and which has axial cylinders, each of which receives a piston. An adjustment system includes a pivot cradle via which the piston drum and the valve plate can be pivoted relative to the drive axis about a maximum working range which is delimited by a minimum pivot angle and a maximum pivot angle. The minimum pivot angle of the working range is shifted out of its zero position by at least 5, and the maximum pivot angle is extended in the same way by at least 5 in order to retain the entire working range about the region left out of the lower region.

A hydraulic motor apparatus includes a motor housing engaged to an end cap having a first porting system and an adapter connected to an external surface of the end cap and having a second porting system. A filter may be attached to the adapter and connected to the second porting system and a pressure reducing valve in the adapter is connected to the second porting system. The assembly may also include a controller operatively connected to the pressure reducing valve and system sensors measuring parameters affected by the output of the hydraulic motor apparatus, whereby the pressure reducing valve is operatively controlled by the controller in response to input from the system sensors.

Systems and methods are provided for a hydraulic axial piston assembly. The hydraulic axial piston assembly may include a distributor plate, a bearing element directly and orthogonally connected to a side of the distributor plate, and an adjustment screw orthogonally connected to the bearing element, where the adjustment screw is externally accessible and manually rotatable to adjust a timing angle of the distributor plate.

An axial piston machine may include a housing, a guide, a shaft, at least two cylinders each delimited by an associated cylinder wall, at least two pistons, a feed configured to supply a working fluid, an exhaust configured to discharge the working fluid, and at least one actuator configured to open and close a plurality of secondary outlets. Each associated cylinder wall may include a primary outlet and a secondary outlet of the plurality of secondary outlets. Each primary outlet and each secondary outlet may be fluidically connected to an outlet chamber that is fluidically connected to the exhaust. Each primary outlet may open into an associated primary outlet channel that opens into the outlet chamber. Each secondary outlet may be fluidically connected to an associated secondary outlet channel that opens into the outlet chamber and is separate from the plurality of primary outlet channels.
