Abstract
A hydrostatic drive axle has two hydrostatic axial piston motors utilizing a swashplate design located coaxially next to each other, the control sides of which face each other. Tubular terminal segments (1a) of the drive axle are in the form of axial piston motors (2) and are shaped and fitted on a center segment (1b), in which there is a control base seat (3) that is common to the two axial piston motors (2). To make possible easy assembly and disassembly, the control base seat (3) is shaped and fitted in the center segment.
Claims5
A hydrostatic drive axle, comprising:
- a load-bearing axle housing having two tubular terminal segments and a central segment integrally formed with the tubular terminal segments;
- two coaxial hydrostatic axial piston motors utilizing a swashplate design located next to each other in the axle housing and being pre-assembled modules, each of which has a drive assembly, a wheel axle assembly, and a brake assembly,
- wherein control sides of the axial piston motors face each other,
- wherein the tubular terminal segments of the drive axle are in the form of housings for the axial piston motors, and
- wherein a control base seat that is common to both the axial piston motors is integrally formed with the central segment.
