An operation mechanism of a turbocharger includes: a driving member undergoes a reciprocating movement; a link plate rotationally coupled to the driving member through a first hinge-portion, wherein a first rotation-center of the first hinge-portion is moves linearly along a virtual line in a reciprocating manner in response to the reciprocating movement; and an operation lever. The operation lever includes: a first end operates a flow regulator of the turbocharger, wherein a swing center of the operation lever is located at the first end; and a second end rotationally coupled to the link plate through a second hinge-portion including a second rotation-center, wherein the second end is swings relative to the swing center when the first rotation-center moves linearly along the virtual line, and wherein a distance from the swing center to the second rotation-center is shorter than a distance from the swing center to the virtual line.

A method and system for controlling operation of a two-stroke engine having a turbocharger includes the two-stroke engine comprising an electronically controlled exhaust valve. A throttle position sensor generates a throttle position signal corresponding to a position of a throttle plate of a throttle. A boost box is coupled to the two-stroke engine. A boost box pressure sensor is coupled to the boost box and generates a boost box pressure signal corresponding to a pressure within the boost box. A controller is coupled to the boost box pressure signal controlling a position of the electronically controlled exhaust valve in response to the boost box pressure signal and the throttle position signal.

An actuator is configured to drive a boost pressure control valve of a supercharger and includes an electric motor, an output shaft, a speed reducer, a rotational angle sensor and a magnetic circuit holder member. The speed reducer includes a final gear. The final gear is made of metal and is fixed to the output shaft, and the speed reducer reduces a speed of rotation outputted from the electric motor and transmits the rotation of the reduced speed to the output shaft. The rotational angle sensor includes a magnetic circuit device and a sensing device and senses a rotational angle of the output shaft. The magnetic circuit holder member is a non-magnetic member fixed to the output shaft. The magnetic circuit holder member is formed separately from the final gear and holds the magnetic circuit device.

A system for coordinated control of an engine and associated components over various engine-modes of operation. The system may include an engine (e.g., a diesel 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.

A wastegate assembly for controlling flow of exhaust gas includes a valve element having a valve body and a valve shaft. The wastegate assembly further includes a spindle. The wastegate assembly further includes a washer coupled to the valve shaft and spaced from the spindle for securing the spindle to the valve shaft. A plurality of cup springs is disposed between the spindle and the washer. The plurality of cup springs includes at least a first cup spring and a second cup spring, with the first cup spring supported on the spindle head and the second cup spring orientated substantially identical to the first cup spring and disposed directly on the first cup spring.

A turbocharger and method of controlling the same includes a turbine housing comprising an inlet and an outlet, turbine wheel coupled to a shaft. The turbine housing comprising a first scroll and a second scroll for fluidically coupling the inlet and the turbine wheel. The first scroll has a first end adjacent the inlet and a second end adjacent the turbine wheel. The second scroll has a third end adjacent the inlet and a fourth end adjacent the turbine wheel. An exhaust gas diverter valve is coupled to the turbine housing restricting flow into the first scroll or the second scroll.

A valve includes a housing, a solenoid arranged in the housing, a pin movable by the solenoid, a pot-shaped piston connected to the pin, and a first seal arranged between the housing and the pot-shaped piston. The pot-shaped piston has, at least in the region of its open end, a radially peripheral second seal that bears against a second housing part when the valve is closed, the second housing part being connected to the housing.

A turbine comprising: a turbine housing, a wastegate passage connecting the turbine inlet and the turbine outlet; and a wastegate valve comprising a movable valve member. The wastegate valve has an open state in which a first gas may pass between a turbine inlet a turbine outlet via the wastegate passage and a closed state in which the valve member substantially prevents said first gas from passing between the turbine inlet and the turbine outlet. The valve member is mounted to an actuation member that passes through a bore of the turbine housing. The actuation member is movable to move the wastegate valve between the open and closed states. The turbine comprises a fluid conduit configured to deliver a second gas to the bore to form a fluidic seal between the bore and the actuation member to substantially prevent the passage of said first gas along the bore.

A turbocharger includes a turbine housing that has a bypass passage defined therein. The bypass passage connects a section of an exhaust passage on the upstream side of a turbine wheel to a section of the exhaust passage on the downstream side of the turbine wheel. A wastegate, which selectively opens and closes the bypass passage, is attached to the turbine housing. A valve seat for the wastegate is provided at an open edge of the bypass passage in the inner wall surface of the turbine housing. An abradable portion, which is a deformable portion, is adhered to the valve member of the wastegate. The abradable portion is configured to be deformed in accordance with the shape of the valve seat by contacting the valve seat when the bypass passage is shifted from the open state to the fully closed state.

A turbocharger and method of controlling the same includes a turbine housing comprising an inlet and an outlet, turbine wheel coupled to a shaft. The turbine housing comprising a first scroll and a second scroll for fluidically coupling the inlet and the turbine wheel. The first scroll has a first end adjacent the inlet and a second end adjacent the turbine wheel. The second scroll has a third end adjacent the inlet and a fourth end adjacent the turbine wheel. An exhaust gas diverter valve is coupled to the turbine housing restricting flow into the first scroll or the second scroll.
