RADIAL TURBINE WITH VTG GUIDE GRID
20230193812 · 2023-06-22 ·

A radial turbine for a charging device with a turbine casing, a turbine wheel, a VTG guide grid, and a plurality of spacing elements. The spacing elements are arranged on the vane bearing ring and define an axial distance of the vane bearing ring from the turbine casing or from a counter-element arranged in the turbine casing. At least one spacing element is arranged adjacent to a guide vane and is configured such that a minimum distance between the at least one spacing element and the associated adjacent guide vane is achieved in a specific operating position of the guide vane in which the minimum distance is formed by a difference between an axial distance and an inflow distance.

Engine and emissions control system

A system for coordinated control of an engine and associated components over various engine-modes of operation. The system may include an engine, one or more components controllable to adjust operation of the diesel engine, and a system controller. The system controller may be connected to the engine and the one or more components. The system controller may include a supervisory controller and one or more component controllers. The supervisory controller may receive system control variable set points and coordinate component control variable set points for the components to achieve the system control variable set points. The component controllers may control operation of the components to achieve the control variable set points for the components by setting manipulated variable set points for the components based on the component control variable set points and a model based non-linear dynamic inversion.

TURBOCHARGER ACTUATOR ARRANGEMENT
20230184161 · 2023-06-15 ·

A turbocharger actuator arrangement for a turbocharger includes a movable actuator operating lever, a control rod, and a wave spring. More specifically, the control rod is couplable to a setting element of the turbocharger and is connected to the actuator operating lever by means of a bolt such that the control rod is arranged to be rotatable relative to the actuator operating lever. The bolt extends from the actuator operating lever through an opening in an end region of the control rod and through the wave spring. As such, the control rod and the wave spring are arranged between the actuator operating lever and a bolt securing means, which is arranged at an end region of the bolt that is averted from the actuator operating lever.
