Abstract

A hydraulic piston machine is disclosed, having a cylinder drum and a control plate, which control plate has at least one high-pressure "kidney" and at least one low-pressure "kidney" and also a contact surface against which the cylinder drum bears in operation, at least the contact surface being provided with a friction-reducing layer. It is desirable for such a machine to have better operational behavior and a longer service life. For that purpose, the contact surface in the region of the low-pressure kidney has a recessed region forming a gap between the cylinder drum and the control plate.
