<p>A fluid motor having a gerotor gear set includes a first member (52) having internal teeth (82) and a second member (72) having external teeth (84). The second member (72) is rotatably and orbitally mounted within the first member. The teeth of the first and second members cooperate to define a plurality of variable volume working chambers (92). Some of said working chambers expand and other of said working chambers contract upon relative rotatable and orbital movement between said first and second members. A plurality of electrically controlled valves (26) are provided, each working chamber having an associated valve. Each valve selectively communicates, in one condition, its associated working chamber with an inlet passage (22), which is, in turn, connected to a source of pressurized fluid (32), or, in a second condition, its associated working chamber to an outlet passage (24), which is, in turn, connected to a reservoir. Each of the valves is responsive to a respective electrical control signal for placing the valve in the first or second condition.</p> |
