Abstract
A hydrostatic axial piston machine () utilizing a bent-axis construction has a driveshaft () with a drive flange () rotatable around an axis of rotation (R) inside a housing (). A cylinder barrel () has pistons () fastened in an articulated manner to the drive flange (). The drive flange () is supported on a housing-side slide face () by an axial bearing () in the form of a hydrostatically relieved sliding bearing () having a plurality of slippers (). Each of the slippers () is mounted in an articulated manner in the drive flange () so that when the drive flange () rotates, a compensating force (F) acts on the slipper () which is in the opposite direction to the centrifugal force (F) acting on the slipper (). The point of application (AP) of the compensating force (F) on the slipper () is selected so that there is no tipping moment on the slipper () or to compensate for some or all of any tipping moment that does occur.
