ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a slipper and swashplate cavitation erosion control and impact reduction assembly for a piston type hydraulic apparatus that includes a rotating cylinder block having at least one axially disposed bore. A piston is mounted for reciprocal movement within the bore. A fixed port plate is provided as well as a pair of different fluid pressure sources. The port plate cooperates with the rotating cylinder block to deliver alternately during two discrete and different portions of the cylinder block rotation first one of the fluid pressure sources and then the other of the fluid pressure sources to the bore and the piston. The piston has at one end thereof a slipper coupled thereto and the slipper is mounted for a sliding interface movement on a surface of a swashplate. The swashplate is nonrotatable in respect of the port plate. The piston has an internal passage extending from one end of the piston to the other end of the piston to thereby allow fluid under alternate pressure to be delivered to and through an opening in the slipper to the interface between the slipper and said swashplate. The inventive improvement resides in the swashplate being provided with at least one vent passage. The vent passage has one end thereof opening at the swashplate surface and the slipper-swashplate interface and the other end of said vent passage opening to an environment in which the ambient pressure is lower than either of the fluid pressure sources to thereby reduced erosion and load impact effects at the slipper-swashplate interface.
