An exhaust gas turbocharger for an internal combustion engine may include a rotor with a turbine wheel of a turbine, a compressor wheel of a compressor and a shaft. The shaft may be connected to the turbine wheel and to the compressor wheel in a rotationally fixed manner. A bearing cartridge may be included for mounting the rotor in a housing. The bearing cartridge may have an inner sleeve arranged on the shaft axially between the turbine wheel and the compressor wheel with respect to an axis of rotation and an outer sleeve arranged coaxial thereto. The outer sleeve may be rotatably mounted on the inner sleeve via at least one rolling body. At least two damping rings may be included which are coaxially arranged on the outer sleeve axially spaced from one another and supported on a respective bearing section of the housing.

A compressor wheel assembly of a turbocharger can include a compressor wheel that includes a through bore that extends from a base portion to a nose portion of the compressor wheel; a turbocharger shaft disposed in the through bore of the compressor wheel where the turbocharger shaft includes an end portion that extends axially away from the nose portion of the compressor wheel; and a swaged collar fixed to the end portion of the turbocharger shaft.

A turbocharger is provided including a housing with a turbine and a compressor disposed in the housing. A central shaft is connected between the turbine and the compressor and is rotatably supported by a first journal bearing disposed within the housing at a location adjacent to the turbine and a second journal bearing disposed within the housing at a location adjacent to the compressor. A spacer is disposed directly between and adjacent to the first journal bearing and the second journal bearing and is neither coupled to or integrally formed with the first journal bearing.

Fan modules and motors are disclosed. The fan motor includes a bearing holder having a first bearing holder end and a second bearing holder end. The bearing holder has a first section with a first diameter that is smaller than diameters of the first bearing holder end and the second bearing holder end. The motor further includes a first bearing retained by the bearing holder at the first bearing holder end, and a second bearing retained by the bearing holder at the second bearing holder end. The motor further includes a shaft retained by the first bearing and the second bearing, and a stator surrounding the first section of the bearing holder.

A turbomachine face seal includes a turbine wheel with a cylindrical shaft extending from the turbine wheel, defining an axis of rotation. The shaft may include a heat throttle, such as a piston ring and groove assembly, or a shaft weld pocket having an annular heat choke groove. Circumscribing the shaft is a casing and a seal ring having a groove with a seal element. To cool the seal element, a pressurized oil jet is directed toward the casing, and impinges against the casing. The oil jet may be angled or parallel with the axis of rotation. The casing may be configured to trap oil from the oil jet to cool the seal element.

The present disclosure provides a bearing assembly, a rotor assembly and a draught fan. The bearing assembly has a shaft sleeve and a shaft extending through the shaft sleeve. An inner wall of the shaft sleeve is provided with two grooves in a circumferential direction. The shaft is provided with two channels corresponding to the two grooves respectively. The channels and the grooves form two raceways. Multiple rolling bodies are disposed between the shaft and the shaft sleeve and movable in the raceways. The shaft sleeve has an outer diameter of 13 mm, and a portion of the shaft extending within the shaft sleeve has a diameter of 5 mm.

A turbocharger includes ball bearings each including an inner ring and an inner ring mounted to a shaft, and an outer ring and an outer ring provided so as to be relatively rotatable in a bearing hole, and damper portions formed in at least one of outer peripheral surfaces of the outer ring and the outer ring and opposed surfaces of inner peripheral surface of the bearing hole opposed to the outer peripheral surfaces of the outer ring and the outer ring.

A bearing housing for a turbocharger is presented. The bearing housing comprises a bearing housing body configured to receive a rotor shaft along a longitudinal axis of the bearing housing body. The bearing housing further comprises a hub connected to the bearing housing body and defining an opening into the bearing housing body, wherein the opening is configured to receive a rotor shaft bearing. Moreover, the bearing housing comprises at least one arm extending radially from the hub, the at least one arm having a first end connected to the hub and a second end opposite to the first end, wherein the second end of the at least one arm comprises a connection structure configured to connect the bearing housing with a compressor housing of the turbocharger.

Fan modules and motors are disclosed. The fan motor includes a bearing holder having a first bearing holder end and a second bearing holder end. The bearing holder has a first section with a first diameter that is smaller than diameters of the first bearing holder end and the second bearing holder end. The motor further includes a first bearing retained by the bearing holder at the first bearing holder end, and a second bearing retained by the bearing holder at the second bearing holder end. The motor further includes a shaft retained by the first bearing and the second bearing, and a stator surrounding the first section of the bearing holder.

The present disclosure relates to a bearing supporting assembly and a machining method thereof, and a centrifugal compressor. The bearing supporting assembly includes: bearing supports, provided with through holes for mounting radial bearings; and a fixing plate, detachably mounted at one end of each of the bearing supports along an axial direction, sides, away from the bearing supports, of the fixing plates being configured to mount first thrust bearings.
