Abstract
An axial piston machine, in particular to an air-conditioning compressor for motor vehicles, including a drive unit for taking-in and compressing a pressure medium The drive unit is rotatably driven by a shaft, the rotatable movement of the shaft is convertible into the reciprocating motion of the pistons in the drive unit and the shaft is mounted in the casing of the axial piston machine, in particular by an axial bearing.
Claims7
An axial piston machine comprising:
- a casing;
- pistons;
- a drive, the drive drawing in and compressing a pressurizing agent;
- an axial bearing having a contact face in the casing;
- a shaft, the shaft being supported by the axial bearing;
