Patent number: 11746762Abstract: A swashplate-type axial piston machine includes a housing and at least one working channel extending through a distributor plate. The at least one working channel opens out at an outside on the housing at an associated working port. The at least one working channel includes a first section and a second section. The first section extends over the entire distributor plate. The second section is arranged entirely in the housing. The second section directly adjoins the first section. A first rotary bearing has an outer circumferential surface that defines a circular cylindrical reference cylinder about the axis of rotation.Type: GrantFiled: January 10, 2022Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Timo Nafz, Christoph Walz, Daniel Gieringer, David Breuer, Joachim Binder, Kai Bauckhage, Matthias Blankenberg-Teich, Stefan Haug, Stephan Breckheimer

Patent number: 11603829Abstract: There is disclosed a hydrostatic axial piston machine having a pulse reduction device. This device has a connection location or tap in the transition region in front of the high-pressure-side kidney-like elongate hole of a distributor plate. The connection location or tap is connected by means of one or two hydraulically passively controlled switching valves to a high-pressure store. It is used for precompression and consequently for the pulse reduction. In a development, the distributor plate also has a connection location or tap in the transition region behind the high-pressure-side kidney-like elongate hole. The connection location or tap is connected via one or two hydraulically passively controlled switching valves to a low-pressure store. This is used for the decompression and consequently also for the pulse reduction.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2021Date of Patent: March 14, 2023Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: David Breuer, Timo Nafz

Patent number: 11591910Abstract: A hydrostatic axial piston machine includes a pressing pressure chamber for the cylinder drum which is supplied with pressing pressure from a circular-arc-like elongate hole of a distributor plate or from a plurality of connection channels of the cylinder drum. The pressing pressure chamber is delimited radially outwardly by the cylinder drum and radially inwardly by the drive shaft. The pressing pressure chamber is delimited axially at both sides by seals which are both arranged between the radially inner rotating drive shaft and a radially outer stationary component. The radially outer component may be the cylinder drum or, in the case of the distributor-plate-side seal, also a gap seal between the drive shaft and a bearing bush of the distributor plate. Both seals are arranged at the distributor plate side with respect to a tooth arrangement or a retraction ball.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 2021Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: David Breuer, Timo Nafz

Patent number: 11008862Abstract: A hydrostatic piston engine comprises a housing with a cylinder drum with cylinder bores mounted rotatably therein. Each of the cylinder bores receives a working piston in a longitudinally displaceable manner, via which a hydrostatic working chamber is delimited by the cylinder bore. The hydrostatic working chamber has an opening on an outer surface of the cylinder drum by which, when the cylinder drum rotates, outlets of a high-pressure chamber and of a low-pressure chamber of the piston engine and a reversing surface arranged between the two outlets in the rotational direction can be passed over in alternating fashion. At least one pressurizing medium channel is provided which, on one hand, opens out in the reversing surface and, on the other, into a pressurizing medium trough of the piston engine.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2018Date of Patent: May 18, 2021Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: David Breuer, Timo Nafz, Stefan Merz

Patent number: 9458839Abstract: A hydrostatic machine includes a housing and a drive shaft. The housing has an inner housing part, configured to receive a force flow, an outer housing part, configured to seal and damp, and a housing floor. The drive shaft is configured, on an input side, to pass coaxially through the housing floor and is configured, on an output side, to pass coaxially through a swash plate. The drive shaft is connected to a cylinder drum in a rotationally fixed manner. The hydrostatic machine is configured in a weight-saving manner and is configured such that propagation of vibrations in the hydrostatic machine, and noise generation therefrom, are reduced. To this end, the drive shaft is further configured to pass only partially through the inner housing part and is rotatably mounted in the housing floor and the inner housing part.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2012Date of Patent: October 4, 2016Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Joachim Schmitt, Peter Krause, Ulrich Bittner, Josef Kopecki, David Breuer
