Patented Feb. 2, 1954 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE VARIABLE VOLUME HYDRAULIC MOTOR' WITH PRESSURE RESPONSIVE VOLUME CONTROL of Ohio Application April 12, 1952, Serial No. 282,052
This invention relates to a variable volume type of hydraulic motor, and an object of the invention is to provide improved means for controlling automatically the volume of the motor for each revolution in response to the pressure of the hydraulic fluid delivered to said motor and in which means is provided to adjust the motor to maximum volume whenever the motor is iirst started in operation, after which the volume of said motor will be adjusted automatically as aforesaid.
Other objects of the invention will appear hereinafter, the novel features and combinations being set forth in the appended claims.
In the accompanying drawings:
Fig. 1 is an elevational view, with parts broken away, showing an improved hydraulic motor incorporating features of my invention; and
Fig. 2 is a sectional view, with a part of the rotor and head shown in plan, of the motor oi Fig. 1. y
The hydraulic motor includes a main casting forming a housing or casing IIJ having a removable combination feed end cap and port plate II at one end and a bearing retaining cap I2 at the other end. Within the casing I there is a rotor I3 mounted on a drive shaft I4 which is carried in spaced anti-friction bearings I5 and I 6 carried adjacent opposite ends thereof.
The `rotor I3 is provided with a plurality of axially extending cylinders, one of which is seen at I1 in Fig. 2 of the drawings, within each of which cylinders there is a piston I8 having a bearing shoe I9 which rides on a thrust plate 20 carried by a trunnion 2i mounted for adjustment on an axis which is at right angles to the axis of the shaft I4 and includes a bearing shaft 22. Thrust received by the trunnion 2l is transmitted to the casing I0 through a pair of arcuate roller bearings 23,'the outer surface of the trunnion 2l being formed in an arc of a circle which rolls over said arcuate roller bearings 23.
The motor is preferably of a reversible character and is provided with feed and exhaust ports, one of which is seen at 24, there being a similar port diametrically opposed thereto in a manner well understood in this art. By making port 24 either a pressure port or an exhaust port; in other words, by connecting it selectively to the pressure line or the exhaust line, the direction of vrotation of the motor may be selectively controlled.
As best illustrated in Fig. 1 of the drawings ing the head of a push rod 25' which is' "urged 13 Claims. (Cl. 121-62) by a heavy spring 26 to the minimum volumetric position of the trunnion 2|, in which position the thrust plate 20 is in a plane substantially vertical with the axis of the shaft I4. 1t is obvious that when the thrust plate 29 is so positioned the pistons I3 will have little or no reciprocatory motion for each revolution of the rotor I3 and shaft I4. One end of the spring 2t abuts one end of a collar 2l carried by the push rod 25, the other end abutting an appropriate washer carried by the cap I I.
Diametrically opposite the push rod 25 there is a composite piston designated in its entirety by the reference character 28 which from a functional or operative standpoint includes two separate pistonsv 29 and 3i! formed integrally.
The piston 29 has a larger diameter than the piston 30, and the former reciprocates in a relattively large diameter cylinder 3l, the latter in a smaller diameter cylinder 32 which is formed by extending a sleeve 33 in one end of the cylinder 3! and adjacent the cap II, said sleeve 33.
being held in position by cooperating shoulders between it and the cylinder SI and by said cap Il, as is obvious from Fig. 1 of the drawings.
The principal portion of the piston 29 is pro-` vided with a relatively large bore 34 which receives an elongated pin `35 having a shoulder 3S formed thereon, which shoulder 36 cooperates with the bottom of the bore 34 to limit movement of the pin 35 toward the left as viewed in Fig. 1 of the drawings. the left by a helical spring which is held in adjusted position by a movable cap 3B threaded inthe bore 34, said cap 38 being provided with drain bores 39 to drain oil which may reach the bore 34. Thecap 38 is preferably hardened and cooperates with a hardened thrust button 40 carried by the trunnion 2 I.
It may be pointed, out at this time that hydraulic pressure on the piston 36 or on the piston 4 29, or both of them, will exert a force through said composite piston 28 tending .to rock the trunnion 2l in a direction against the action of the spring 26 and tending to increase the volume of the motorwhich, of course, means the volumetric consumptions for thereof. A
The left-hand portion of the pin 35 normally extends into a bore 4I which extends through the piston portion 3@ ofthe composite piston 28 and into a portion of the piston 29 thereof. The
