Abstract

A control device for variable hydraulic machines, and specifically for variable axial piston machines equipped with a servo system that is connected to a swash plate so that the discharge/displacement volume is infinitely variable. The hydraulic machine is equipped with a sensor that detects the piston displacement and is connected with an electronical control unit that controls the swash angle position of the swash plate and is pressure controlling the servo system by an electrohydraulic converter. A method for the infinite controlling of the volume flow of hydraulic machines, by which the servo system is connected to the swash plate of the hydraulic machine, and by which a conduction of a signal from a sensor to the control unit, a pressure controlling of the servo system by an electrohydraulic converter as well as the controlling of the swash angle position of the swash plate by the electronical control unit is realized.
