A rotor disk for an exhaust turbocharger is mounted in a housing of the exhaust turbocharger so as to be able to rotate about an axis of rotation. The rotor disk has a disk hub including a disk back and a disk front facing away from the disk back. A plurality of rotor disk blades are formed on the disk hub in a manner extending between the disk back and the disk front. A balancing mark is arranged in a blade channel formed between a first blade of the plurality of rotor disk blades and a second blade, arranged adjacent to the first blade, of the plurality of rotor disk blades. The balancing mark is triangle-like. The disclosure also relates to an exhaust turbocharger comprising such a rotor disk and to a method for balancing a rotor assembly for such an exhaust turbocharger.

The invention refers to a connector unit formed out a side piece of a blower housing and an engine mounting plate for a drive motor of a blower, whereby the engine mounting plate is attachable to the side piece in a variety of rotational or alternatively angular positions vis--vis a rotational axis that runs in an axial direction to the side piece.

A turbocharger assembly can include a shaft sleeve that includes a bore that extends between a first end and a second end; a shaft received by the bore of the shaft sleeve where the shaft includes a compressor end and a turbine wheel that defines a turbine end; and a balance collar disposed on the shaft and seated axially between the end of the shaft sleeve and the turbine wheel wherein the balance collar includes a stem portion and a flared portion that includes a sacrificial portion.

A fan rotor module for a gas turbine engine, the fan rotor module comprising a drive arm, a fan disc and a windage shield attached at one or more points to a rear portion of the fan disc, wherein the fan rotor module comprises at least one balancing weight disposed at one or more of the points where the windage shield is attached to the rear portion of the fan disc.

A compressor wheel assembly for a forced induction device includes an impeller member and a plate member. The impeller member is formed of a polymer material, and includes a hub portion and a plurality of blades extending from an outer surface of the hub portion. The hub portion includes an outer peripheral portion formed therewith. The plate member is connected to the outer peripheral portion of the impeller member to be rotationally fixed thereto. The plate member being formed of a metal material.

The present invention relates to a balance structure of a fan rotor, which comprises a fan wheel and a balancing part. The fan wheel has a hub and a plurality of blades disposed on the circumferential side of the hub. The hub has a top wall connected to a sidewall. An unbalanced portion is selectively disposed on the top wall or on the sidewall. The unbalanced portion is disposed on one side of a symmetrical axis of the hub. The balancing part is disposed at the unbalanced portion such that the fan rotor is balanced.

A rotor for a fluid machine includes a wheel that is supported for rotation about an axis of rotation. The wheel includes a back wall with an outer rim edge. The rotor also includes a plurality of blades that are attached to the back wall and that are spaced apart about the axis of rotation. Moreover, the rotor includes an inter-blade area on the back wall between neighboring ones of the plurality of blades. Furthermore, the rotor includes a balancing feature that is included in the inter-blade area on the back wall. The balancing feature intersects and defines part of the outer rim edge.

A blower wheel for a blower motor assembly includes a plurality of annularly arranged blades and an annular structure coupled to each of the blades. A counterweight including a base layer having an adhesive coated thereon is adhered to the blower wheel to correct an imbalance of the blower wheel relative to an axis of rotation of the blower wheel. A method of balancing the blower wheel is also disclosed, wherein the method includes the steps of determining an imbalance of the blower wheel relative to a rotational axis thereof and adhering a counterweight to the blower wheel to correct the imbalance of the blower wheel.

A fan for cooling an electronic device is described, wherein the fan can include an enclosure and a motor secured within the enclosure. The fan can also include an impeller to be turned by the motor, the impeller having a plurality of blades, wherein an angular spacing of the blades results in an audio spread-spectrum within a range of audio frequencies. In some examples, an arrangement of the blades has a center of mass below a threshold, and the angular spacing of the blades and a blade pass frequency (BPF) results in sound that is distributed in the range of audio frequencies.

A trim balance device for a gas turbine engine having a rotatable shaft extending along a central longitudinal axis of the gas turbine engine includes a trim balance nut that is at least partially disposed about the rotatable shaft. The trim balance nut defines an aperture that extends from a first trim balance nut end towards a second trim balance nut end along the central longitudinal axis. The aperture being arranged to receive and seat a balance weight.
