A variable displacement pump can generate electrical energy or apply mechanical force to fluid flow. Hydraulic motors based on this design have a central axle, piston cylinder, and circular plate. The pump’s circular pistons displace different amounts of fluid depending on their horizontal position, and the compensator adjusts the swashplate angle for maximum efficiency.
A variable displacement pump is a type of mechanical-electric motor placed in a fluid channel. Built to generate electrical energy from the natural flow of fluid past or to apply a mechanical force to make fluid flow stationary in a pipe, it gives the variable displacement pump a dual use: adjustable capacity. Such pumps have versatile applications because they can be set to capture the maximum amount of hydraulic fluid energy as the velocity of fluid flow in a channel changes dynamically, or they can be switched to apply mechanical energy powered by electricity to increase fluid flow. .
Hydraulic motors designed on the axial principle of the variable displacement pump have three common characteristics regardless of their size or the complexity of their controls. These include a central axle, a cylinder of pistons that surround it, and a circular plate to which the ends of all the pistons are attached. They are usually built on the bent-axle or bent-axle piston pump design, which allows you to adjust the vertical angle at which the pistons are positioned, either by tilting the shaft itself or the plate that is attached to the ends of the pistons.
The circular series of pistons in a variable displacement pump move in unison, but they displace different amounts of fluid depending on their horizontal position in the piston shafts in which they move. As the inner retainer plate, or outer swashplate, rotates at an off-center vertical angle of between 25° and 40° in the pipe, the pistons alternate between pushing fluid through a discharge pipe and drawing it into a discharge pipe. aspiration. These outlet and inlet pipes are known as kidney grooves, and the piston chambers are referred to as the liner bores.
Another key feature of a variable displacement pump is the so-called compensator. This is a collection of controls often attached to the outer pump housing, which adjust the angle of the swashplate or retainer plate. If the swashplate is set to a perfect vertical angle on the pump as it rotates, the displacement will be zero and the fluid flow will stop. Compensators can be simple or complex controls, but their purpose is to change the variable settings on the pump for maximum efficiency.
