Systems and methods for a tangent drive high pressure pump

A reciprocating engine comprising:

• at least one axially translating y-axis component configured to reciprocate substantially along a y-axis with a reciprocating motion of a piston assembly relative to a base to which the piston assembly is slidingly attached via at least one y-axis component bearing assembly;
• at least one x-axis component slidingly coupled via at least one x-axis component bearing assembly to and translating with the at least one y-axis component along the y-axis, the at least one x-axis component bearing assembly attached to a bearing shaft via plain bushing bearings fixed to the at least one x-axis component and slidingly attached to the at least one y-axis component via the bearing shaft on which the plain bushing bearing slides, wherein the at least one x-axis component comprises an orbital output component comprising an x-axis component assembly and an orbital linking component comprising an x-axis component bearing journal disposed substantially concentric with the orbital output component;
• a stationary output component comprising a power shaft rotatably attached to the base in a direction that is substantially perpendicular to both the x-axis and y-axis, wherein the stationary output component engages with the orbital output component via a first integral interconnecting output link;
• and a stationary linking component comprising a power shaft main bearing journal rotatably attached to the base in a direction that is substantially concentric with the stationary output component, wherein the stationary linking component engages with the orbital linking component of the at least one x-axis component via the first integral interconnecting output link.
