A turbine for an exhaust-gas turbocharger has a turbine housing formed with two volutes through which an exhaust gas can flow and which are separated by a separating wall. Only a single wastegate valve is provided for both volutes. The wastegate valve is a linear valve with a linear valve element. The linear valve element is received in the separating wall and is movably guided in its axial direction in the separating wall.

The disclosure relates to a valve assembly 10 for controlling a volute connecting opening 324 of a multi-channel turbine 500. The valve assembly 10 comprises a housing portion 300, a valve body 100 and an internal lever 200. The housing portion 300 defines a first volute channel 312, a second volute channel 314 and a volute connecting region 320. The housing portion 300 further comprises a cavity 340. The cavity 340 is separated from the volutes 312, 314 and can be accessed from outside the housing portion 300 via a housing opening 342 which extends from outside the housing portion 300 into the cavity 340. The volute connection region 320 is located between the first volute channel 312 and the second volute channel 314 and defines a volute connecting opening 324. The valve body 100 is inserted in the cavity 340 of the housing portion 300 and comprises at least one fin 120. The internal lever 200 is coupled with the valve body 100 and configured to pivotably move the valve body 100 between a first position and a second position. In the first position of the valve body 100, the fin 120 blocks the volute connecting opening 324.

The invention relates to a control device for a turbocharger, comprising an exhaust gas conducting section through which fluid can flow and which includes a bypass duct for bypassing a turbine wheel that is rotatably arranged in the exhaust gas conducting section, and comprising an adjusting arm (3) for accommodating a valve element (2) provided for opening or blocking a flow cross-section of the bypass duct; the adjusting arm (3) is movably accommodated in the exhaust gas conducting section; furthermore, a flexible element (14) is provided at least for securing the valve element (2) in place on the adjusting arm (3). According to the invention, the flexible element (14) is designed so as to be radially slidable in order to reduce adjustment forces.

An actuator actuates a movable part of a turbocharger including a turbine housing for accommodating a turbine driven by exhaust, and a compressor housing for accommodating a compressor which is disposed on the same axis as the turbine and which pressure-feeds intake air. The actuator has a rod of which one end side is coupled by a link to the movable part, a case having a bearing part that slidably and axially supports the other end side of the rod, a boot which covers the sliding part of the rod and the bearing part and of which at least part of the outer peripheral surface faces the outer peripheral surface of the turbine housing, and a thermal shield member disposed between the turbine housing and the boot.

A turbocharger includes a turbine wheel, a turbine housing including a waste gate port allowing exhaust gas to flow by bypassing the turbine wheel, and a waste gate valve configured to open and close the waste gate port. The waste gate valve is configured such that a valve body including a valve plate configured to close the waste gate port by abutting against the turbine housing and a valve stem is tilted with respect to a swing arm. A stopper abutting against the valve body when an abutting surface of the valve plate is apart from the turbine housing and the waste gate port is in an open state is disposed in the turbine housing.

A driving device includes: a shaft; and a cylindrical bush having an insertion hole into which the shaft can be inserted. The insertion hole includes an opening portion having an inner diameter decreasing from a first end surface toward a second end surface of the bush, and a small-diameter hole portion extending from an end of the opening portion to the second end surface. The shaft includes a shaft portion having an outer diameter smaller than an inner diameter of the small-diameter hole portion, and an abutment portion having an outer diameter greater than the inner diameter of the small-diameter hole portion. The bush has a sealing surface defining the opening portion. The abutment portion of the shaft abuts on the sealing surface of the bush in an axial direction of the insertion hole to seal a gap formed between the shaft and the bush inside the insertion hole.

Systems, methods and apparatus are disclosed for producing a target pressure differential across an intake air throttle of an internal combustion engine by opening or closing a turbocharger wastegate to a commanded position that provides an opening through the wastegate having an effective area based on the target pressure differential.

An intake pipe includes a cylindrical pipe main body, a flange, which is provided on an end of the pipe main body in an axial direction and protrudes radially outward about an axis of the pipe main body from an outer surface of the pipe main body, and a chamber forming portion, which is located outside of the pipe main body and defines a chamber. The chamber forming portion is provided to connect the outer surface of the pipe main body and the flange to each other and is integrated with the pipe main body and the flange.

A turbocharger turbine wastegate assembly can include a lever that includes an opening and two arms, where each of the two arms extends a respective length from the opening; and a crank that includes a wastegate shaft coupling, where the lever and crank are operatively coupled via one of the arms by a pin received in a channel.

Disclosed is a turbine bypass for an engine with a driven turbocharger. During engine cold start, or periods of idle or low load engine operation, the bypass can be utilized to direct hot exhaust gasses directly to an exhaust aftertreatment. This provides higher temperatures to the exhaust aftertreatment, increasing the ability to eliminate harmful emissions such as NOx. The driven turbocharger can still provide boost to the engine through supercharging, so that engine torque and power can be maintained while the turbine bypass is in operation.
