Abstract: An example assembly comprises: a main housing; an electric motor disposed in the main housing and comprising a stator fixedly positioned in the main housing, and a rotor positioned within the stator; a hydraulic pump positioned in the main housing and at least partially within the rotor, wherein the hydraulic pump is configured to receive fluid from an inlet port and provide fluid flow to an outlet port, wherein the hydraulic pump comprises a pump shaft rotatably coupled to the rotor of the electric motor; a controller housing coupled to the main housing; and a motor controller comprising one or more circuit boards disposed within the controller housing and configured to generate electric current to drive the electric motor.

Abstract: An example assembly comprises: a pump cover; a thrust plate configured to interface with the pump cover at a first side of the thrust plate and interface with gears of a gear pump at a second side of the thrust plate; and a seal disposed within a seal cavity formed at an interface between the thrust plate and the pump cover, wherein the seal defines multiple partitions at the interface between the thrust plate and the pump cover and seals each partition of the multiple partitions from other partitions.

Abstract: A cooling fan drive apparatus with an integrated filter comprises a gear motor contained within a housing that includes internal passages through which hydraulic fluid can flow and structure configured to receive a filter such that the filter forms an integral part of the apparatus.

Abstract: A gear pump system comprises a gear pump having an inlet, an outlet, and at least one rotating gear for pumping fluid from the inlet to the outlet and producing an output flow characterized by pressure pulses arising from the geometry of the teeth of the gear; and at least one valve operative to vary the output flow in timed relation to the rotation of the gear for counteracting the pressure pulses, thereby to reduce the amplitude of the pressure pulses.
