Abstract
A servo pump for use in a hydraulic system. The servo pump is constituted by a variable displacement type hydraulic pump adapted to be driven by a high-speed motor and to hydraulically drive an actuator. The motor and the pump are housed in a common casing. The motor shaft and the pump shaft are integrated to form a common rotary shaft which is supported rotatably at both its ends by end bearings and at its intermediate portion by an intermediate bearing.
Claims2
A servo pump for use in a hydraulic system and constituted by a variable displacement type hydraulic pump adapted to be driven by a high-speed motor and to hydraulically drive an actuator, an improvement which comprises that said motor and said pump are housed in a common casing and that a motor shaft and a pump shaft are united to form a common rotary shaft which is rotatably supported at its both ends by end bearings and at its intermediate portion by an intermediate bearing, wherein one of said end bearings is provided on a portion of an inner peripheral surface of said casing opposed to the outer peripheral surface of a rotor of said pump, and wherein said motor shaft is partially hollowed and said pump shaft is integrated with said motor shaft by being splined to the hollow of said motor shaft, said pump shaft being biased by a spring loaded between the bottom of the hollow of said motor shaft and the end surface of said pump shaft so that a cylinder block of said pump is resiliently pressed against a valve plate.
