A rotation shaft supporting structure for an electric supercharger includes a rotation shaft that supports a compressor wheel, an electric motor including a motor rotator securely installed to the rotation shaft, and a stator for applying torque to the motor rotator. The supporting structure further includes a bearing provided on a bearing side end of the rotation shaft, which is adjacent to the compressor wheel, to support the rotation shaft, and a damper unit for absorbing shaft vibration of the rotation shaft. The compressor wheel is a wheel of a supercharging side, and the damper unit is provided at a shaft end on an opposite side to the bearing side.

The present teachings provide for an air system for an internal combustion engine (“ICE”). The air system can include a compressor, separation device, first conduit, second conduit and a system for controlling a ratio of gasses that enter the combustion chamber during an intake stroke. The separation device can include a housing and membrane. The housing can be fluidly coupled to the compressor and configured to receive a first volume of intake air therefrom. The membrane can be disposed within the housing and configured to separate the first volume of intake air into a volume of nitrogen-rich air and a volume of oxygen-rich air. The first conduit can fluidly couple the compressor to the combustion chamber. The second conduit can fluidly couple the compressor to the separation device. The gasses can include the volume of nitrogen-rich air, the volume of oxygen-rich air, and a second volume of intake air.

A low-temperature turbocompressor structural arrangement for an internal combustion engine for using energy that is available but unused during operation to cool the air supplied to the engine by supercharging. The temperature of the air compressed by the compressor is reduced by a cooling system and the air is then conveyed to a further turbine actuated by the intake air flow of the engine. The structural arrangement may be mounted in full or in part, and also each component may be fitted into existing systems.

An exhaust-gas turbocharger having an electric drive unit for driving a compressor, a turbine, or a turbocharger shaft of the exhaust-gas turbocharger. The electric drive unit has a rotor and a stator. The rotor is equipped with a rotor body embodied around a rotation axis of the rotor. A receptacle for at least one permanent magnet is embodied on the rotor body. A permanent magnet is disposed in the receptacle of the rotor body. The rotor body is mountable using a threaded bushing on a turbocharger shaft of the exhaust-gas turbocharger. The rotor body has a further receptacle which extends in the direction of the rotation axis and in which the threaded bushing is disposed inside the rotor body. The further receptacle is disposed in the rotor body with an offset in the direction of the rotation axis relative to the receptacle.

The present disclosure provides an engine fueling system that includes multiple fueling valves such that the fuel transport delay can be reduced. The fueling system may also include an electrically driven compressor to improve engine properties during engine startup. For example, an engine fueling system comprising: a first compressor; an intake air throttle operably coupled to the first compressor and positioned downstream of the first compressor; a primary fuel path in communication with a fuel supply, wherein a first fuel from the fuel supply is injected into the primary fuel path upstream from the compressor; and a secondary fuel path in communication with the fuel supply, wherein a second fuel from the fuel supply is injected into the secondary fuel path downstream from the compressor.
