Axial piston machine
An axial piston machine utilizing a swashplate design has a cylinder drum ( 3 ) that is mounted so that it can rotate around an axis of rotation ( 2 ). The cylinder drum ( 3 ) is provided with cylinder bores ( 4 ), in each of which a piston ( 5 ) is mounted so that it can be displaced longitudinally. The pistons ( 5 ) are each supported by a sliding shoe ( 7 ) on a swashplate ( 8 ). The sliding shoes ( 7 ) are in a functional connection by means of a retaining device ( 16 ), in particular a retaining plate ( 15 ), that rotates synchronously with the cylinder drum ( 3 ). The sliding shoes ( 7 ) are in a functional connection with a moment generating device ( 25 ), by means of which an opposing moment can be generated on the sliding shoes ( 7 ) that counteracts the tipping moment.
1. An axial piston machine, comprising:
a cylinder drum rotatably around an axis of rotation, wherein the cylinder drum includes cylinder bores; and
a longitudinally disposable piston mounted in each cylinder bore,
wherein the pistons are each supported by a sliding shoe on a swashplate, wherein the sliding shoes are in a functional connection by a retaining device comprising a retaining plate that rotates synchronously with the cylinder drum, and wherein the sliding shoes are in a functional connection with a moment generating device, by means of which an opposing moment is generated on the sliding shoes from a centrifugal force that counteracts a tipping moment.
2. The axial piston machine as recited in claim 1 , wherein the retaining device is pushed toward the swashplate by a spring device.
3. The axial piston machine as recited in claim 1 , wherein the retaining device is supported on a housing of the axial piston machine.
4. An axial piston machine, comprising:
a cylinder drum rotatably around an axis of rotation, wherein the cylinder drum includes cylinder bores; and
a longitudinally disposable piston mounted in each cylinder bore.,
wherein the pistons are each supported by a sliding shoe on a swashplate, wherein the sliding shoes are in a functional connection by a retaining device comprising a retaining plate that rotates synchronously with the cylinder drum, and wherein the sliding shoes are in a functional connection with a moment generating device, by means of which an opposing moment is generated on the sliding shoes that counteracts a tipping moment,
wherein the moment generating device comprises at least one rocker arm associated with each sliding shoe, by means of which a contact force (F k ) that is exerted on the sliding shoe is generated opposite a centrifugal force (F f ) that is exerted on the sliding shoe.
5. The axial piston machine as recited in claim 4 , wherein the rocker arm is mounted on the retaining device so that it is pivotable around a pivoting axis oriented parallel to an axis of rotation of the retaining device and can be brought into a functional connection with the peripheral surface of the sliding shoe.
6. The axial piston machine as recited in claim 5 , wherein the rocker arm can be brought into a functional connection with the peripheral surface of the sliding shoe in the vicinity of a sliding shoe plate of the sliding shoe.
7. The axial piston machine as recited in claim 5 , wherein the rocker arms are located between the retaining device and the swashplate.
8. The axial piston machine as recited in claim 5 , wherein a bearing component is provided for mounting the rocker arm on the retaining device.
9. The axial piston machine as recited in claim 4 , wherein the rocker arm includes a two-armed lever, wherein a contact surface which can be brought into connection with the sliding shoe is provided on an area of the rocker arm which is provided with a first lever arm, and a center of mass of the rocker arm is applied to a second lever arm.
10. The axial piston machine as recited in claim 9 , wherein the second lever arm is larger than the first lever arm.
11. The axial piston machine as recited in claim 9 , wherein the mass of the rocker arm and the first lever as well as the second lever arm are designed so that the opposing moment generated by the rocker arm compensates completely or almost completely for a tipping moment exerted on the sliding shoe.
12. The axial piston machine as recited in claim 9 , wherein the rocker arm partly surrounds the sliding shoe and the area of the rocker arm that is provided with the second lever arm at least partly fills the space between two neighboring sliding shoes.
