What is the principal mechanism used in this type of motor design? What type of bearing is used here? What is the main application for this type of hydraulic motor design?

Solution

Answer :

(a).

A hydraulic motor is a mechanical actuator that converts hydraulic pressure and flow into torque and angular displacement (rotation). The hydraulic motor is the rotary counterpart of the hydraulic cylinder.

Conceptually, a hydraulic motor should be interchangeable with a hydraulic pump because it performs the opposite function - similar to the way a DC electric motor is theoretically interchangeable with a DC electrical generator. However, most hydraulic pumps cannot be used as hydraulic motors because they cannot be backdriven. Also, a hydraulic motor is usually designed for working pressure at both sides of the motor.

(b).

This type of bearing is used in this motor :

1. Ball bearings

2. Roller Bearings

3. Ball Thrust Bearings

4. Roller Thrust Bearings

5. Tapered Roller Bearings

(c).

Rineer hydraulic motors have been designed and manufactured for decades to meet an assortment of intensive needs. Their distinctive vane-crossing-vane design lends itself to a wide variety of special applications.
