Abstract:
A hydraulic machine is described comprising a first part (1, 4) and a second part (7, 8), wherein the first part (1, 4) and the second part (7, 8) are movable relatively to each other in abutting relation, the first part (1, 4) comprises a pressure chamber (2) having a pressure chamber opening (6) in a contact face (5) contacting a sealing face (9) of the second part (7, 8), the second part (7, 8) comprises a low pressure area (10) connected to a low pressure opening (11) in the sealing face (9) and a high pressure area (12) connected to a high pressure opening (13) in the sealing face (9), wherein during a movement of the first part (1, 4) with respect to the second part (7, 8) in a moving direction (14) the pressure chamber opening (6) comes alternatingly in overlap with the low pressure opening (11) and the high pressure opening (13). Such a machine should be flexible in operation with low risk of damages caused by cavitation. To this end a throttling channel (15) in the second part (7, 8) connects the low pressure area (10) with an area in the sealing face (9) in moving direction in front of the low pressure opening (11).
