Abstract

An axial piston machine includes a housing, an actuating piston, and a closing screw. The housing includes a cylinder bore, a recess, and a fluid channel. An end of the bore open to an outside of the housing has an internal thread. The recess is located in a region of the internal thread, and is deeper than a thread depth of the internal thread so that a floor region of the recess is free from thread turns. The piston is linearly moveable in the cylinder bore, and is configured to adjust a displacement volume of the machine. The screw is screwed into the internal thread so as to form a closed chamber between the piston and the screw. The fluid channel opens into the floor region of the recess, and is fluidically connected to the cylinder chamber.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An axial piston machine, comprising:
a housing including:
a cylinder bore, an end of the cylinder bore open to an outside of the housing and having an internal thread;
a recess in a region of the internal thread, the recess deeper than a thread depth of the internal thread so that a floor region of the recess is free of thread turns; and
a fluid channel that opens into the floor region of the recess;

an actuating piston linearly movable in the cylinder bore, and configured to adjust a displacement volume of the axial piston machine; and
a closing screw screwed into the internal thread of the end of the cylinder bore to form a closed cylinder chamber between the actuating piston and the closing screw, the fluid channel fluidically connected to the cylinder chamber.

2. The axial piston machine of claim 1 , wherein the recess, viewed in a sectional plane oriented perpendicularly to a center axis of the cylinder bore and passing through the fluid channel, has a circular shape so that a width of the recess in a region of thread tips of the internal thread is at least twice as large as a diameter of the fluid channel.

3. The axial piston machine of claim 1 , wherein:
the recess, viewed in a sectional plane containing a central axis of the cylinder bore and passing through the fluid channel, has a trapezoidal shape with a flat floor region; and
the fluid channel opens fully into the flat floor region.

4. The axial piston machine of claim 3 , wherein the recess is rotationally symmetrical relative to an axis of symmetry that runs parallel to the center axis of the cylinder bore and is located in an interior of the cylinder bore.

5. The axial piston machine of claim 1 , wherein the recess, viewed in a sectional plane containing a center axis of the cylinder bore and passing through the fluid channel, has a circular shape.

6. The axial piston machine of claim 5 , wherein the recess is rotationally symmetrical relative to an axis of symmetry that runs parallel to the center axis of the cylinder bore and is located in an interior of the cylinder bore.
