Abstract

The invention relates to a displacement unit (1) of a hydraulic machine, for which the hysteresis is reduced. For this purpose, in the control spool (3) and/or at the control spool (3) a mass body (16) and a spring (17) are arranged, which are excited to resonance vibrations. The vibrations are self-excited and sustained by a partial flow rate of the hydraulic fluid which is modulated periodically. The high frequent vibrations are transmitted over the spring (17) onto the associated control spool (3), thereby reducing the friction and hence the hysteresis.
