Abstract
A bent-axis hydraulic pump motor includes: a cylinder block, a retainer plate; and a constant velocity joint, which includes an inner joint element; an outer joint element; and a plurality of balls interposed between block-side ball grooves and shaft-side ball grooves to transmit torque between the cylinder block and the retainer plate, so that all block-side groove planes, which include respective extending axial lines of the block-side ball grooves and the inclined rotation center, are inclined with respect to an axial center of a center shaft and all drive shaft-side groove planes, which include respective extending axial lines of the shaft-side ball grooves and the inclined rotation center, are inclined with respect to an axial center of a drive shaft such that loads applied to a cage in an axial direction from the balls are balanced.
