<p>A fluid power transfer device (20) includes a wobble plate assembly (26) having a wobble plate (58) that rolls against truncated cone portions (42) of a housing (22) and has an inner extremity 60) rotatably supported by an axially inclined annular bearing (49), 49') on a spherical member (46) of the wobble plate assembly so as to rotate a shaft (24) during the wobbling motion. One embodiment includes a journal bearing (49) and an oil lubrication system (114) and another embodiment includes antifriction roller bearings (220) that support the wobble plate (58) on the spherical member (46), antifriction roller bearings (224) that rotatively support the shaft (24) on the housing (22') and seals (226) that rotatively seal between the shaft (24) and the housing (22'). The fluid power transfer device can be used as an internal combustion engine, a heat engine, a pump, a compressor or a fluid motor.</p> |
