Abstract

A hydraulic rotary machine configured to reduce sliding resistance of a reciprocating piston and to suppress a reduction in volumetric efficiency corresponding to an amount of leakage of hydraulic oil. A piston pump includes a rotor shaft, a cylinder block, a piston head, a piston rod, a retainer, a swash plate, and a tilt regulation mechanism. When the tilt regulation mechanism rocks the swash plate, the amount of discharge from the piston pump is variably changed. The retainer which rotates with both the piston head and the piston rod is supported by a retainer bush provided to the rotor shaft. The retainer sphere section of the retainer and the retainer bush sphere section of the retainer bush have spherical shapes having the same curvature. During the regulation of tilt, the retainer rocks while the retainer bush sphere section is in sliding contact with the retainer bush.
