Hydraulic motor piston

A piston intended for a hydraulic radial piston motor and being or the type comprising an outer cam ring having an undulated inner cam surface, an inner cylinder block which is rotatable in relation to the cam ring and has radially outwardly directed cylinders, a plurality of such pistons moving in said cylinders, cam rolls which rollingly run against the cam surface and are slidably arranged against the respective pistons, and a distributing valve which distributes a hydraulic medium to the cylinders in the working stroke of the respective pistons and evacuates the hydraulic medium from the cylinders in the return stroke of the respective pistons, the piston having an essentially cylindrical circumferential surface, an inner end surface which is adapted to be directed towards the center of the cylinder block and be exposed to pressure exerted by the hydraulic medium, and an opposite outer surface which is adapted to be slidingly arranged against the cam roll and therefore is formed with a groove-like recess which in cross-section has an essentially part-cylindrical shape with a symmetry axis extending perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the piston, and two lateral portions which extend around and partly surround the circumferential surface of the cam roll and via which reaction forces in the tangential direction of the cylinder block are transmitted between the cam roll and the cylinder block, characterized in that the lateral portions of the piston are formed as separate parts, which each have an outer part-cylindrical slide bearing surface which is adapted to be slidingly arranged against the cylinder wall, and an inner part-cylindrical slide bearing surface which is adapted to be slidingly arranged against the cam roll, the symmetry axes of the slide bearing surfaces being perpendicular to each other, in such a manner that the lateral parts are movable in a limited manner in the axial and tangential direction of the piston and which in normal operation are guided towards the cylinder wall and the cam roll.
