  • Publication number: 20240337256
    Abstract: An electro-hydraulic apparatus comprising a base structure; an electric machine comprising a stator fixed to the base structure and a rotor rotatable about a rotation axis, the rotor being positioned radially inside of the stator with respect to the rotation axis; and a hydraulic machine comprising a revolver fixed to the rotor and including a plurality of cylinders, at least one piston plate, and a plurality of pistons fixed to the at least one piston plate, each piston being arranged to reciprocate inside one of the cylinders during rotation of the revolver to perform suction strokes and discharge strokes. A vehicle comprising an electro-hydraulic apparatus is also provided.

  • Patent number: 11306589
    Abstract: A rotary displacement piston pump is disclosed having rotatable single or dual valve/port plate(s). The valve plate, being rotatable forward and/or rearward with respect to the rotation of the piston carrier, alters the phasing of the land area of the pumping action thereby altering the phasing of piston speed inasmuch as the land area can be moved to a position to accelerate the piston(s) in a pre or decompression phase. In this way, pump noise, from colliding pressure fronts within the respective high and low pressure plenums, can be “tuned” out of the pump by adjusting the phasing and position of the valve plate(s) and raising or lowering the pre and decompression pressure(s) as necessary. Pump volume can also be controlled by advancing or retarding the valve plate(s), either in or out of synch, so as to shorten intake/exhaust piston stroke and overlap fluid flow between respective intake/exhaust plenums.
