Abstract
A variable positive displacement pump actuator system for a variable positive displacement pump can include a supply line configured to provide a supply pressure, a main pump line configured to provide a pump pressure greater than the supply pressure from the variable positive displacement pump, and at least one electro-hydraulic servo valve (EHSV) in fluid communication with the supply line and the main pump line to receive the supply pressure and the pump pressure. The at least one electro-hydraulic servo valve can be configured to output a first regulated pressure and a second regulated pressure. The system can include a first control line in fluid communication with at least one of the at least one EHSV to receive the first controlled pressure, a second control line in fluid communication with at least one of the at least one EHSV to receive the second controlled pressure, a first hydraulic actuator configured to connect to and/or otherwise actuate a lever arm of the variable positive displacement pump, the first hydraulic actuator in fluid communication with the first control line and the supply line to receive the first control pressure and the supply pressure to control a position of the first hydraulic actuator, and a second hydraulic actuator configured to connect to and/or otherwise actuate the lever arm of the variable positive displacement pump, the second hydraulic actuator in fluid communication with the second control line and the supply line to receive the second control pressure and the supply pressure to control a position of the second hydraulic actuator.
