Abstract

A sliding shoe for supporting a piston of a hydrostatic axial piston machine against a swash plate includes a sliding face that defines a central concentric pressure pocket that is flat in order to stabilize the sliding shoe. The pressure pocket has radial supply grooves in order to ensure an optimal supply of pressure medium to the pressure pocket from a central mouth opening. The radial supply grooves extend through the pressure pocket and as far as a circumferential groove which surrounds the pressure pocket.
