Abstract
A bent axis hydrostatic module, comprising: a frame, a pair of parallel laterally spaced shafts rotatably supported by the frame and directed outwardly from the frame in the same direction. Two yokes are pivotally mounted about parallel axes on the frame. A hydrostatic power unit is swingably carried by each yoke, and each hydrostatic power unit being operatively connected to one of the shafts to rotate the same. A pair of system pressure conduits in the frame with each of the pressure conduits are fluidly connected to each of the cylinder blocks. A control system is provided for pivoting the yokes including means for independently pivoting the yokes about parallel axes.
