Patent number: 10934882Abstract: A wastegate is attached to a turbine housing of a turbocharger. The wastegate opens and closes a bypass passage. An actuator is coupled to the wastegate via a link mechanism. The link mechanism includes a link rod and a link arm. The longitudinal direction of the link rod in a state in which the bypass passage is fully closed is defined as a width direction of the link arm. The coupling center position in the link arm to which the link rod is coupled is located at a position offset in a direction in which the link rod moves to open the wastegate from a middle of the link arm in the width direction.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 2019Date of Patent: March 2, 2021Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Kouji Nagai, Akitoshi Iwata, Akihiro Asano, Takayasu Ogasawara, Yasuko Inoue

Publication number: 20160305843Abstract: A balance of a rotating body is measured by a balance measuring device while the rotating body is rotated. The balance of the rotating body is corrected by irradiating a laser with a laser radiation device at a first processing portion of the rotating body that is set based on the measurement result and removing that processing portion. After the first processing portion of the rotating body is removed, the balance of the rotating body is measured again. If the measurement result is a result in which the balance correction is insufficient, the rotating body is rotated at a speed lower than a rotation speed of the rotating body when the first processing portion is removed, and the laser is irradiated by the laser irradiating portion at a second processing portion of the rotating body set based on the result of measuring the balance again, and the second processing portion is removed.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 5, 2016Publication date: October 20, 2016Applicant: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Koji NOMURA, Osamu MAEDA, Akihiro ASANO
