Abstract
An integrated electric motor-driven in-line hydraulic pump that includes a housing with an internal shaft, and a cylinder block mounted for rotation on the shaft. The rotor of an electric motor has an internally affixed bearing sleeve that is rotatably supported with respect to the shaft surrounding the cylinder block within the housing. Teeth on the sleeve engage splines on the cylinder block for rotatably coupling the rotor to the cylinder block. The stator of the electric motor is affixed within the housing surrounding the rotor. Pistons are operatively coupled to the cylinder block and engage a yoke plate for obtaining positive displacement pumping action upon energization of the motor. Fluid inlet and outlet ports feed hydraulic fluid through the housing to the cylinder block and pistons, and from the cylinder block to the outlet port.
