Hydraulic actuator and joint driving unit employing the same

摘要

There are provided a swash member and a first and second rotational members which are held on a base member through a universal joint mechanism and can rock about two axes out of three orthogonal axes including a center of the mechanism, a pump mechanism for transferring a low-pressure non-compressible fluid in a low-pressure pipe portion to a high-pressure pipe portion filled with a high-pressure non-compressible fluid being pressurized by a pressure accumulation mechanism, a control valve device which controls connection between both the pipe portions and a plurality of rocking-torque generation mechanisms which couple the base member and the swash member to each other and are driven by the fluids for generating a rocking torque to the swash member, and rocking-angle adjustment unit for changing a relative angle between the two rotational members.
