Patent ID: 10364792

Abstract:
A hydraulic machine (1) comprising first and second brake elements (92, 93), a spring washer (65) tending to urge the first and second brake elements (92, 93) in a braking direction, and a brake release piston (61) configured to act on the spring washer (65) in a direction opposing the braking direction, the hydraulic machine being characterized in that the brake release piston (61) comprises a primary brake release piston (61a) associated with a primary brake release chamber (62a), and a secondary brake release piston (61b) associated with a secondary brake release chamber (62b), said primary and secondary chambers (62a, 62b) extending radially around the shaft (2) in such a manner that projections of the primary brake release chamber (62a) and of the secondary brake release chamber (62b) onto a plane perpendicular to a longitudinal axis (X-X) defined by the axis of rotation of the hydraulic machine (1) are superposed, at least in part.
