Abstract

See full text

A port plate assembly of a hydraulic unit includes a port plate and a journal bearing. The port plate includes a fixed-speed interface side having a fixed-speed interface surface, and a variable-speed interface side having a variable-speed interface surface. A plurality of kidney-shaped apertures is defined at a kidney pitch diameter about a central bore of the port plate between the fixed-speed interface surface and the variable-speed interface surface. The port plate also includes control cylinder interface formed at a control cylinder radial offset from a central axis of the central bore, where a ratio of the control cylinder radial offset to the kidney pitch diameter is between 1.629 and 1.639. The journal bearing is installed in the central bore of the port plate, where the journal bearing provides an interface for a fixed-speed shaft and a variable-speed shaft of the hydraulic unit.
