More Information
Summary:A fluid pump or motor of the type having a rotor with hollow radially directed spokes each extending into a separate one of a series of cylinders that ride against an eccentrically positioned circular race as the rotor turns is provided with resilient means for maintaining the cylinders adjacent the race and in proper orientation relative thereto. This avoids possible damage from a tilted cylinder while enabling the cylinders to shift radially as necessary to accommodate to thermal expansion changes within the mechanism.
