A pump assembly has a displacement volume that is continuously adjustable by a double-acting control cylinder having first and second control chambers, to which first and second receiving bores, respectively, are assigned. A pressure control valve in the form of a built-in valve is installed in one of the receiving bores and a 3/2-way switching valve in the form of a built-in valve is installed in the other of the receiving bores. The pressure control valve and the 3/2-way switching valve are each electrically adjustable and are connected to a control device. A target conveying pressure difference can be specified to the control device, and the control device is configured such that, by controlling the pressure control valve and the 3/2-way switching valve, the control device adjusts the displacement volume so that the difference between the first and second actual pressures approaches the target conveying pressure difference.

Flexible pump assembly for use in a fan drive

A wheel hub drive with a planetary transmission includes a wheel hub rotatably mounted on a fixed component and at least one fluid-carrying passage. The fixed component is configured to receive a tire with a gaseous filling. The at least one fluid-carrying passage extends indirectly as far as the tire through the fixed component in order to regulate the gas pressure in the tire. An annular rotary union defines at least a portion of the at least one fluid-carrying passage and is configured to connect the fixed component fluidically to the tire. The annular rotary union is arranged axially between the fixed component and the rotatably mounted wheel hub.
