PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The illustrations show the pump driven counter-
clockwise (left hand) from the top (plan) view.

Rotating the drive shaft
(301)
counter-clockwise
turns the splined cylinder, which contains the
pumping pistons
(102)
. When the cylinder rotates,
the pistons move in and out within their bores as
the shoes ride against the angled
(C)
swashblock
(201)
.
As the cylinder rotates, the individual piston bores
are connected, alternately, to the crescent shaped
port
A an
d port
B
in the valve plate. While
connected to the suction port
A
, each piston moves
outward
(OUT)
, drawing fluid from port
A
into the
piston bore until its outermost stroke
(D)
is
reached. At this point, the piston bore passes from
port
A
to port
B
.
While rotating across the crescent port
B
, each
piston moves across the angled swashblock face
and then each piston is forced inward
(IN)
. Each
piston then displaces fluid through the crescent to
port B until its innermost stroke
(D)
is reached. At
this point, the piston bore passes from the B to the
A
crescent again and the cycle is repeated.
