The invention relates to an axial piston pump with at least one pump element, which includes a piston disposed in a housing, with a drive shaft upon which a swash plate for driving the piston is disposed. The swash plate is non-rotatably fixed, but can pivot around a swash plate pivot axis which extends perpendicular to the longitudinal drive shaft axis (A), and with a device for adjusting a pivot angle between the drive shaft and the swash plate. In order to be able to adjust the oblique position of the swash plate in a simple manner, even during pump operation, it is provided that the device for adjusting the pivot angle of the swash plate has a displacing device disposed in a stationary manner on the housing. The displacing device acts on the swash plate via an intermediate member, which rotates jointly with it, on one end of the swash plate pivot axis to adjust pivot angle of the swash plate in the axial direction of the drive shaft so that the swash plate is secured in the adjusted pivot position when the drive shaft rotates.
A piston pump with at least one piston (20) supported so that the piston moves in a housing (10), a drive shaft (27), upon which a swash plate (26) for driving the piston (20) is non-rotatably disposed, said swash plate pivots around a swash plate pivot axis, and with a device for adjusting a pivot angle between the drive shaft (27) and the swash plate (26), the device for adjusting the pivot angle of the swash plate (26) has a displacing device (41) disposed on the housing (10), said displacing device acts upon the swash plate (26) via a rotating intermediate member (33) for adjusting the pivot angle, the swash plate (26) is pivotably secured on a driving pin (28) disposed in a direction of the swash plate pivot axis, and that the intermediate member (33) includes a sleeve section (34), which extends in a longitudinal direction of the drive shaft, from a section (36) of the intermediate member (33) which carries an annular face (35) into a central recess (37) of the swash plate (26), and which contains first and second longitudinal slots (38) which run in the longitudinal direction of the drive shaft and are diametrically opposed to each other in relation to the drive shaft (27), and the driving pin (28) extends through said longitudinal slots (38), and on the intermediate member (33) or on the swash plate (26), an axially directed projection (39) is provided, which engages in a recess (40) in the swash plate (26) or in the intermediate member (33).
