Abstract: A variable displacement, rocker cam type, axial piston pump in which the rocker cam is driven by a stroking piston and the stroking piston is connected to the rocker cam by a pair of flexible connectors and tension in the first flexible connector is raised and tension in the second flexible connector is lowered when the stroking piston is moved in one direction to pivot the rocker cam toward a position of maximum fluid displacement and tension in the second flexible connector is raised and tension in the first flexible connector is lowered when the stroking piston is moved in the other direction to pivot the rocker cam toward a position of minimum fluid displacement.

Abstract: A variable displacement axial piston pump having a rocker cam and a rocker cradle in which a complement of recirculating rollers is mounted at each side of the rocker cam to support the cam in the cradle and a holddown plate engages the rollers opposite the bearing surfaces between the rocker cam and cradle.

Abstract: A variable displacement axial piston pump has a rocker cam for controlling the output of the pump. The rocker cam is driven by a fluid motor member. A valve with a follow-up device regulates pressure fluid flow to the fluid motor member to move the rocker cam. Both the fluid motor member and a part of the follow-up device are rigidly secured to and movable with the rocker cam to provide precise positioning of the rocker cam.
