1 / 7

What are the common types of control mechanisms used for adjusting the swash plate in an axial piston pump?

B) Hydraulic, pneumatic, and cooling control

D) Rotational, vibrational, and thermal control

C) Temperature, magnetic, and sonic control

A) Manual, electrical, and pressure compensation control

2 / 7

What happens to the volume of liquid displaced when the swash plate angle is reduced in an axial piston pump?

B) The displacement decreases

C) The pressure in the system increases

A) The displacement increases

D) The speed of the pump doubles

3 / 7

How can an axial piston pump vary the volume of liquid it displaces?

A) By changing the speed of the electric motor

C) By altering the diameter of the pistons

D) By adding more pistons to the cylinder block

B) By adjusting the angle of the swash plate

4 / 7

What is the purpose of varying the swash plate angle in an axial piston pump?

B) To regulate the flow rate and volume of liquid displaced

D) To cool the hydraulic fluid

C) To change the type of hydraulic fluid used

A) To adjust the pressure of the hydraulic system

5 / 7

Which component in an axial piston pump directly affects the piston movement?

A) The cylinder block

C) The inlet valve

B) The swash plate

D) The pressure relief valve

6 / 7

What is the primary function of an axial piston pump?

B) To convert mechanical energy into hydraulic energy by displacing liquid

C) To regulate the temperature of hydraulic fluid

A) To convert electrical energy into mechanical motion

D) To measure the pressure in a hydraulic system

7 / 7

What is one advantage of using a variable displacement axial piston pump in a hydraulic system?

B) It provides flexibility in flow rate, leading to better energy efficiency

D) It only works in one direction

C) It is cheaper than fixed displacement pumps

A) It always operates at maximum capacity, which increases energy use
