Abstract:
A hydraulic machine comprising a drum (12) rotated by an input shaft, comprising cylinders (14) distributed around the shaft, each receiving a piston that slides on the basis of the rotation of the shaft, each cylinder opening at an opening (30) on a transverse face of the drum bearing on a plate having inlet and outlet manifolds, the openings (30) comprising, relative to the cylinders (14) of same, angular offsets comprised within a total offset range, characterized in that the offsets of the openings (30) are disposed at one end or the other of this offset range.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for elastic suspension of an assembly of reservoirs (50, 60) on the underbody of a motor vehicle. The reservoirs (50, 60) are mounted substantially in parallel and have a substantially cylindrical general shape terminated by two shaped end pieces (50A, 50B; 60A, 60B). Said novel suspension device comprises two flanges (10, 11), which fit closely to the shaped end pieces (50A, 50B; 60A, 60B) of the reservoirs (50, 60) and are linked together by tie rods (30) gripping said reservoirs (50, 60), and a plurality of arms (40A, 40B, 40C, 40D) which link the flanges (10, 11) to a plurality of elastic connection points of the suspension device on the vehicle body.
Abstract:
A hydraulic module designed to be mounted on a hydraulic hybrid vehicle, characterised in that it forms a rigid and compact assembly comprising a body (32) receiving the high- and low-pressure accumulators intended to supply traction motors of the vehicle, comprising a generally parallelepipedal shape, and having attachment means designed to be fixed under a floor at the rear of the vehicle.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device which comprises a gear change fork (1), a hydraulic cylinder including a stationary cylindrical spindle (2) with a stationary transverse wall (3) projecting from said spindle (2) and a piston that is translatably movable by sliding over said transverse stationary wall (3). The piston consists of a piston body (4) closed by a radial closing part referred to as a “plug” (5) so as to define two inner chambers (6, 7) of the cylinder, which are situated on either side of said stationary transverse wall (3), respectively. Means for pressurizing both of the two cylinder chambers (6, 7) are provided for moving the movable piston (4, 5) in one direction or another. In the device according to the invention, the piston body (4) is directly built into the gear shift fork (1) whereby, as a result of the pressure in a cylinder chamber (6, 7), it is the fork (1) that moves translatably.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a variable displacement hydraulic machine, in particular for a motor vehicle, said hydraulic machine comprising a rotating cylinder (10) including a series of axial pistons (12) connected to a first plate (14) axially located on one side of said cylinder within a substantially transverse plane, the slope of which can be controlled, so as to form a first controllable displacement for said machine, wherein said machine is characterized in that the cylinder (10) further comprises a second series of axial pistons (22) connected to a second plate (24), the slope of which is also controllable, said plate being axially located, relative to the first plate (14), on the other side of said cylinder so as to form a second controllable displacement for said machine.
