Abstract

Systems and methods for a variable displacement hydraulic motor. The hydraulic motor, in one example, includes a swash plate with a tilt angle, multiple piston assemblies configured to rotate about a drive shaft. In the motor, each of the piston assemblies includes an inner piston slideably coupled to an outer piston that mates with a cylinder in a cylinder block and a retainer device configured to inhibit axial movement of the outer piston in a first position and permit axial movement of the outer piston in a second position.
