Anti friction means in pivot means preferably in radial piston pumps, motors or transmissions

摘要

A cylindrical piston has a part-cylindrical outcut, which is slotted radially and contains a swingable pivot-member of at least part-cylindrical configuration borne in the outcut and pivoting therein under load. The mentioned outcut is formed partially around an axis which is normal to the longitudinal axis of the mentioned piston and extending through the longitudinal axis of the piston. A plurality of preferably part-annullarily formed grooves for the reception of pressure fluid are provided preferably in said pivot-member in order to lubricate bearing portions of said member between two adjacent grooves or recesses to assure a high pressure lubrication from both ends of the respective bearing portion. Efficiency and lifetime of said bearing portion is thereby increased and so is the bearing capability.
