This project is still in-work, but these are the basic ingredients to my Swash-Plate variable compressor pump motor. I'm creating a larger drive bearing using my nested planetary gear bearing to allow independent spin of the center shaft from the outer piston-drive gears. Still need to finish frame including the swash plate actuator to change pump compression rate and direction.
Here's a basic video demo of how the swash plate compressor works:

Note - The partial assembly shown and included simply shows the general idea of how it is assembled. I didn't take the time to make the joints all exact or to add the hubs to the u-joints
