Abstract: A fuel rail for a fuel injection system of a vehicle comprises a distributor pipe extending along a longitudinal axis, having at least one inlet connection for connection to a fuel pump and a plurality of outlet connections for connection to one injector each, which injectors are arranged along the longitudinal axis at a distance from the inlet connection, and a support projection which is arranged between the inlet connection and the outlet connections relative to the longitudinal axis, which projection protrudes in a radial direction extending transversely to the longitudinal axis into an interior of the distributor pipe. The fuel rail further comprises a throttle piece arranged in the interior of the distributor pipe, having a through-opening extending between a first and a second end face, which through-opening has a diameter which is smaller than an inside diameter of the distributor pipe on opposite sides of the support projection in each case.

Abstract: The invention relates to an exhaust-gas-driven turbocharger having a hydrodynamic plain bearing having a rotor and a stator, the rotor being rotatable with respect to the stator, the rotor bearing surface being located opposite a counter-surface of the stator in order to generate hydrodynamic pressure in the region of a converging gap. In such a hydrodynamic plain bearing, the application properties can be improved by the fact that the rotor bearing surface and/or the counter-surface constitutes in a section view, in the context of a section along and through the rotation axis, a continuous bearing contour that is constituted from convex or concave curvatures and/or from at least two contour segments that are embodied as straight lines and/or curvatures. The invention also relates to a hydrodynamic plain bearing or bearing arrangement having such a plain bearing.

The transmission element has an outer surface facing the guide element, wherein the guide element includes at least one radial groove.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a charging device (1) for a combustion engine, more preferably exhaust gas turbocharger, preferentially in a motor vehicle, comprising a rotor having a compressor wheel (4) and a shaft (5), a stator (3) having a bearing housing (6) in which the shaft (5) is rotatably mounted about an axis of rotation (7) and a compressor-sided sealing zone (8), in which a rotor-sided sealing surface (9) and a stator-sided sealing surface (10) are located axially opposite each other. An improved sealing effect can be achieved if at least one of the sealing surfaces (9, 10) has a plurality of depressions (15) arranged distributed in circumferential direction.

Abstract: A guiding grid of variable geometry for turbines comprises a turbine housing and a plurality of guiding vanes in the housing in angular distances around a central axis. Each vane is pivotal about an associated pivoting axis to assume different angles in relation to the central axis and, thus, to form a nozzle of variable cross-section between each pair of adjacent vanes. A generally annular nozzle ring supports the adjustment shafts of the guiding vanes. A unison ring is displaceable around the central axis relative to the nozzle ring. This unison ring is operatively connected to the vanes via a transmission mechanism in order to pivot them when being displaced to adjust their respective angular position in relation to the central axis. The transmission mechanism comprises a first transmission element with an opening and a second transmission element slidably engaging this opening.
