[0027] [Fig.7] [Fig.7] shows another example of a kit according to one aspect of the invention.

[0028] Throughout the figures, the elements in common are identified by identical numerical references. Description of the embodiments

[0029] [Fig. 1] shows an example of a kit according to one aspect of the invention.

[0030] The kit as presented comprises an adapter block 100 and a power supply block 200. The kit is generally defined as having an axial direction XX defined along a main axis XX, and a radial direction extending from the axial direction XX. The power supply block 200 and the adapter block 100 are adapted to be assembled along the axial direction XX.

[0031] The power supply unit 200 comprises a first interface 202 and a second interface 204. The adapter unit 100 has a first interface 102, adapted to be assembled in a sealed manner on the second interface 204 of the power supply unit 200.

[0032] More generally, the various interfaces presented in the context of the present disclosure comprise sealing means adapted to ensure a sealed assembly when two interfaces are assembled. In the example illustrated in [Fig. 1], the second interface 204 of the power supply unit 200 is provided with sealing elements. It is understood that this embodiment is not limiting, and that one and / or the other of the interfaces considered may be provided with sealing elements. In the example presented in [Fig. 1], it is therefore understood that the second interface 204 of the power supply unit 200 and / or the first interface 102 of the adapter unit 100 may be provided with sealing elements. The same applies to the various interfaces which will be presented subsequently.

[0033] The adapter block 100 is adapted to perform a pressure adapter function.

[0034] [Fig.2] illustrates an example of a schematic representation of a pressure adapter 1 included in such an adapter block 100.

[0035] The pressure adapter 1 as shown diagrammatically has two hydraulic members coupled in rotation, one being adapted to have a motor operation, and the other being adapted to have a pump operation. Here, the reference 10 will designate the hydraulic motor, and the reference 20 the hydraulic pump.

[0036] The hydraulic motor 10 has a primary inlet 12 and a discharge primary 14. The hydraulic pump 20 has a secondary inlet 22 and a secondary discharge 24. The hydraulic motor 10 is adapted to be connected to a supply providing a first flow rate Q1 at a first pressure PI, and delivers a flow rate Qm (in the embodiments presented Qm = Q1 if there are no leaks) at a pressure Pm. The hydraulic motor 10 rotates the hydraulic pump 20. The hydraulic pump 20 is supplied with a flow rate Qp (in the embodiments presented Qp = Q2 if there are no leaks) at a pressure Pp, and is adapted to deliver a second flow rate Q2 at a second pressure P2 such that P2 is different from PL It is known to those skilled in the art that for operation of the pump without cavitation, the pressure Pp at the inlet of the pump must be greater than a minimum boost pressure of the pump.

[0037] Depending on the desired pressure adaptation, P2 can be greater than PI or less than PI, thus respectively achieving a pressure booster or a pressure reducer.

[0038] Such an adapter 1 comprises one or more hydraulic machines each comprising a first assembly and a second assembly, movable in rotation relative to each other along a main axis XX visible in particular in Figures 1 and 2.

[0039] The first assembly comprises a multi-lobe cam 140.

[0040] The second assembly comprising a cylinder block 120 having a plurality of housings in which pistons 130 slide, each piston 130 being positioned in a housing. The adapter 1 is configured so that in operation, the pistons 130 follow the cam 140. Thus, the pistons 130 perform back and forth movements in their respective housings depending on the geometry of the cam 140, while remaining in contact with the cam.

[0041] Depending on the architecture chosen, a casing 110 may be integral in rotation with the first assembly or the second assembly.

[0042] The hydraulic motor 10 rotates the hydraulic pump 20. However, the adapter does not have the function of delivering torque. Thus, the adapter 1 typically does not have a mechanical torque input or output shaft. In other words, the adapter 1 does not have a torque input or output. A pressure and a flow rate are applied at the input, and a pressure and a flow rate are delivered at the output.

[0043] According to one example, in particular in the case where the cylinder capacity C1 of the hydraulic motor 10 is greater than the cylinder capacity C2 of the pump 20 (C1>C2), the inlet of the hydraulic pump 20 can be connected to the discharge of the hydraulic motor 10. The discharge of the hydraulic motor 10 thus at least partially supplies the inlet of the hydraulic pump 20. [Fig. 3] shows a hydraulic diagram equivalent to such an assembly.

[0044] Thus, the pressure at the inlet of the hydraulic pump 20 is equal to the pressure at the outlet of the hydraulic motor 10.

[0045] A line 15 typically extends from the internal volume of the casing to provide the boosting of the pump 20, so that the pressure Pp at the inlet 22 of the pump 20 is greater than a minimum boosting pressure required for the pump 20. Alternatively, the boosting is not necessary, but the system comprises means for ensuring that the pressure at the inlet 22 of the pump 20 is greater than the minimum pump boosting pressure, for example a restriction made on a drain of the internal volume of the casing which returns to the reservoir.

[0046] As a variant, in particular in the case where Cl > C2, the inlet of the hydraulic pump 20 and the inlet of the hydraulic motor 10 are common. Thus, the hydraulic pump 20 is supplied at a pressure PI. [Fig.4] shows a hydraulic diagram equivalent to such an assembly.

[0047] The adapter block 100 thus comprises a first assembly and a second assembly, movable in rotation relative to each other along the main axis XX.

[0048] The first assembly comprises a cam 140 and a casing 110. The second assembly comprises a cylinder block 120 having a plurality of housings 123 in which pistons 130 slide, said pistons being positioned opposite the cam 140 and being adapted to be selectively held in contact with the cam 140 during operation of the adapter block 100.

[0049] The adapter block 100 is configured to selectively perform a pressure adaptation function. Depending on the operating mode, it thus makes it possible to perform a pressure raising, amplifying or reducing function. Thus for an initial pressure PI at the inlet of the adapter block 100, the adapter block 100 will deliver a pressure P2 such that P2 is different from PI

[0050] As described above, the adapter block 100 typically comprises a first hydraulic machine 10 and a second hydraulic machine 20 which are rotationally fixed together and configured such that one has a pump operation and the other has a motor operation. The first hydraulic machine 10 and the second hydraulic machine 20 are typically formed in a single cylinder block, defining separate subassemblies corresponding to lobes or portions of lobes of the cam 140.

[0051] By way of example, it may be considered that the first hydraulic machine 10 has a motor operation, and that the second hydraulic machine 20 has a pump operation, the hydraulic motor and the hydraulic pump thus defined typically having identical or distinct cylinder capacities. By rotationally integral, it is meant here that the first hydraulic machine 10 and the second hydraulic machine 20 are rotationally coupled, and therefore rotate jointly. This rotational coupling can be achieved for example by coupling the two hydraulic machines 10 and 20 on the same shaft, by connecting them by a rigid mechanical link, or where appropriate by forming them in the same cylinder block, for example in the cylinder block 120.

[0052] In the example illustrated in [Fig.l], the pressure adapter has a structure of the type as presented previously with reference to [Fig.3] where the displacement C1 of the hydraulic motor 10 is greater than the displacement C2 of the pump 20 (C1>C2). Thus, three conduits open at the first interface 102 of the adapter block 100. The adapter block 100 typically comprises a plurality of valves and flaps adapted to control the supply of the different chambers 123. It is understood that valves, flaps or flaps can be integrated in the adapter block 100 or in the supply block 200

[0053] The power supply unit 200 comprises internal conduits opening onto its second interface 204 and adapted to be connected to the conduits of the adapter unit 100 opening onto the first interface 102 of the adapter unit 100.

[0054] For illustration purposes, [Fig. 5] shows a hydraulic diagram illustrating an example of the structure of the power supply unit 200.

[0055] This figure shows the various internal conduits in the power supply unit 200 and in the adapter unit 100.

[0056] Concerning the adapter block 100, 112 designates the conduit opening onto the first interface 102 and connected to the first orifice 12 of the first hydraulic machine 10. 122 designates the conduit opening onto the first interface 102 and connected to the second orifice 14 of the first hydraulic machine 10 and to the first orifice 22 of the second hydraulic machine 20, this conduit 122 being equivalent to the line 15 described with reference to [Fig. 3]. 132 designates the conduit opening onto the first interface 102 and connected to the second orifice 22 of the second hydraulic machine 20. These different conduits may be provided with valves or flaps, for example to allow them to be closed. It is understood that the valves or flaps may be integrated into the adapter block 100 or into the power supply unit 200.

[0057] The supply unit 200 comprises a primary orifice 210 and a secondary orifice 220, typically forming a supply and a discharge for a given direction of operation. For the purposes of illustration, it is considered that the primary orifice 210 is a supply conduit, and that the secondary orifice 220 is a discharge conduit. In the illustrated example, the supply unit 200 also comprises a drain orifice 250, adapted to be connected for example to a drain conduit.

[0058] The primary orifice 210 and the secondary orifice 220 emerge from the power supply unit, typically in the radial direction relative to the axis XX.

[0059] The primary orifice 210 is typically connected to a first valve 230.

[0060] The power supply unit 200 comprises a first conduit 212 opening onto its first interface 202. This first conduit 212 is connected to a second valve 240. The second valve 240 is adapted to connect the first conduit 212 either to the first valve 230, or to a conduit 234 opening onto the second interface 204 of the power supply unit 200.

[0061] The first valve 230 is adapted to connect the primary orifice 210 either to a conduit 214 opening onto the second interface 204 of the power supply unit 200, or to the second valve 240. It is understood that this example is not limiting, and that the power supply unit 200 may comprise one or more valves performing the intended functions.

[0062] In the example illustrated, the secondary orifice 220 is connected to conduits internal to the power supply unit 200 opening onto the first interface 202 of the power supply unit 200 and onto the second interface 204 of the power supply unit 200. 222 denotes the second conduit opening onto the first interface 202 of the power supply unit 200 and connected to the secondary orifice 220, and 224 denotes the conduit opening onto the second interface 204 of the power supply unit 200 and connected to the secondary orifice 220.

[0063] When the power supply 200 and the adapter block 100 are assembled, the conduits 214 and 112 are in fluid connection. The conduits 224 and 122 are in fluid connection, and the conduits 234 and 132 are in fluid connection.

[0064] The valves 230 and 240 make it possible to connect the primary orifice 210 to the first conduit 212 opening onto the first interface 202 of the power supply unit 200 via the adapter unit 100 or not. Thus, the pressure adapter within the adapter unit 100 can be selectively engaged or not, typically via a control of the valves 230 and / or 240 present within the power supply unit 200. The valves can typically be controlled by a controller (the command can then be transmitted for example electrically, mechanically or hydraulically), or be configured to carry out control as a function of the pressure.

[0065] Alternatively, it is possible to envisage a power supply unit 200 which only allows a configuration where the pressure adapter 100 is engaged.

[0066] The kit as proposed comprising the power unit 200 and the adapter unit 100 thus makes it possible to integrate a pressure adapter into a hydraulic device in a modular manner. The pressure adapter can be selectively engaged or not. In addition, different types of pressure adapters can be associated with the power unit 200, which in particular makes it possible to propose different adapter units 100 with different displacement ratios between the hydraulic machines of the pressure adapter while maintaining an identical power unit 200.

[0067] The kit as proposed may also comprise a distribution block 300 and a hydrocouple block 400. [Fig.6] shows such an example of embodiment.

[0068] The distribution block 300 comprises a first interface 302, and a second interface 304. The second interface 304 of the distribution block 300 is typically adapted to be assembled to the first interface 202 of the power supply block 200.

[0069] The hydrocouple block 400 comprises a first interface 402, and a second interface 404. The second interface 404 of the hydrocouple block 400 is typically adapted to be assembled to the first interface 302 of the distribution block 300.

[0070] The first interface 402 of the hydrocouple block 400 is for example adapted to be coupled to a member, for example a wheel hub or an axle, or more generally a member adapted to receive or supply torque.

[0071] The hydrocouple block 400 has a known structure of a hydraulic machine, here a radial piston hydraulic machine.

[0072] The hydrocouple block 400 comprises a first assembly and a second assembly, movable in rotation relative to each other along the main axis XX.

[0073] According to one example, the first assembly comprises a multi-lobe cam 440, typically secured to a casing 410, and the second assembly comprises a cylinder block 420 having a plurality of housings 423 in which pistons 430 slide, each piston 430 being positioned in a housing 423 of the cylinder block 420 so as to define a plurality of chambers and being adapted to be held in contact with the cam 440 during operation. The cylinder block 420 is rotationally secured to a shaft 450 adapted to transmit a torque. In the example illustrated in [Fig. 6], the shaft 450 forms a wheel support.

[0074] In the illustrated example, a rolling bearing 620 is formed in a bearing block 600 which includes a bearing housing 610 and two tapered roller bearings positioned between the shaft 450 and the bearing housing 610. Alternatively, the rolling bearing 620 may be integrated into the hydrocouple block 400.

[0075] The kit as proposed may also comprise a brake block 500 adapted to selectively prevent or slow down rotation between the first assembly and the second assembly. The brake block 500 comprises a brake housing 510 and two sets of discs forming a stack 520, one secured to the shaft 450 and the other secured to the brake housing 510, as well as means adapted to apply a clamping force to this stack 520. The application of the clamping force will generate a braking effect due to the friction between the discs of the stack 520.

[0076] In the illustrated example, the brake block 500 is positioned between the bearing block 600 and the hydrocouple block 400. It is understood that this embodiment is not limiting, the positions of the brake block 500 and the bearing block 600 can be reversed. In addition, these different blocks can be grouped into a single block. For example, the hydrocouple block 400 can integrate the brake and / or the bearing. The bearing block 600 can integrate the brake, or vice versa.

[0077] The operation and structure of such a hydraulic machine and such a brake are known.

[0078] The distribution block 300 is adapted to be positioned between the hydrocouple block 400 and the power supply block 200. The distribution block 300 performs a hydraulic distributor function for the hydrocouple block 400, being powered by the power supply block 200.

[0079] The distribution block 300 as shown comprises a distributor housing 310 and a distributor 320 internal to the distributor housing 320. The distribution housing 310 has internal conduits adapted to be connected in particular to the conduits of the power supply block 200 (in particular the conduit connected to the drain orifice 250 and conduits connected to the first orifice 210 and to the second orifice 220 directly or via the adapter block 100) when the distribution block 300 and the power supply block 200 are assembled, as well as conduits adapted to be connected to conduits and volumes internal to the hydrocouple block 400 when the distribution block 300 and the hydrocouple block 400 are assembled, and conduits connected to the distributor 320.

[0080] The distributor 320 has a conventional structure, with a plurality of grooves making it possible to organize the fluid connections between the different grooves and conduits. The distributor 320 as presented comprises internal conduits adapted to be in fluidic relation with conduits supplying the chambers of the cylinder block 420. The interface between the cylinder block 420 and the distributor 320 typically forms a part of the second interface 404 of the hydrocouple block 400.

[0081] The different elements of the kit as proposed can be assembled along the main direction XX so as to form a hydraulic device.

[0082] More precisely, considering the example illustrated in [Fig.6], it is thus possible to successively assemble in the main direction the bearing block 600, the brake block 500, the hydrocouple block 400, the distribution block 300, the power supply block 200 and the adapter block 100.

[0083] Each of these blocks can be replaced by another block fulfilling the same function but having different capacities / characteristics, or where appropriate closing an interface.

[0084] Depending on the chosen application and the desired properties for the hydraulic machine, the different blocks can be replaced individually, while keeping all or part of the other blocks unchanged.

[0085] For example, for the same configuration with a distribution block 300, a power supply block 200 and an adapter block 100, different models of hydrobase blocks 400 can be used for different applications. For example, different hydrobase blocks 400 can be proposed with different cylinder capacities, or for example hy radial or axial piston drobases, or hydrobases with or without a brake. In the case of an axial piston hydraulic machine, the 440 cam is then replaced by an inclined plate.

[0086] The hydrocouple block can also be replaced by any type of hydraulic consumer, in particular a hydraulic cylinder.

[0087] The kit as proposed thus offers a modular design allowing the integration of a pressure adapter.

[0088] In addition, the different blocks can thus be manufactured and tested independently, which is advantageous from an industrial point of view.

[0089] The kit as proposed makes it possible in particular to independently supply a pressure adapter and its power supply, or a hydraulic machine as a whole integrating a pressure adapter.

[0090] Alternatively, the adapter block 100 can be removed and replaced by a cover closing the conduits opening at the second interface 202 of the power supply block 200.

[0091] In the embodiments shown in Figures 1 and 6, the different interfaces between the blocks are shown as being radial or substantially radial relative to the main axis XX.

[0092] It is understood that this embodiment is not restrictive, the different interfaces can take different configurations, radial or not with respect to the main axis XX.

[0093] [Fig.7] shows an exemplary embodiment in which the power supply unit 202 has a first interface 202 adapted to be inserted into the distribution unit 300 so as to form a support for the distributor 320. A portion of the power supply unit 200 is thus inserted into the distribution unit 300 during assembly.

[0094] Although the present invention has been described with reference to specific exemplary embodiments, it is obvious that modifications and changes may be made to these examples without departing from the general scope of the invention as defined by the claims. In particular, individual features of the various illustrated / mentioned embodiments may be combined in additional embodiments. Therefore, the description and drawings should be considered in an illustrative rather than restrictive sense.

[0095] It is also obvious that all the characteristics described with reference to a method are transposable, alone or in combination, to a device, and conversely, all the characteristics described with reference to a device are transposable, alone or in combination, to a method.
