Date May 4, 1995A swashplate machine comprises a casing (1) provided with end members (2, 3) and a rotatable shaft (4). The shaft (4) drives a swashplate (5) through an interconnecting member (6) comprising an off-set sleeve (7) that is keyed to the shaft (4) and a non-rotating ball portion (8). The interconnecting member (6) is further supported by a pair of end cones (15). A baffle (9) fixed to the casing (1) intersects the swashplate (5) and an oscillatable pivotable slotted member is provided at the intersection. The arrangement of the swashplate machine being such that at least one of the end cones (15) is slidably mounted in the casing (1) on a guide (18) such that during operation of the swashplate machine limited axial movement of at least the one cone (15) is possible whilst rotational movement of the cone (15) is prevented by the guide (18). |
