  • Publication number: 20170234435
    Abstract: A waste gate valve actuator, that may be used for an exhaust gas turbocharger of a motor vehicle, may have a flap with a base surface to be supported on an edge of an inlet or outlet opening of a waste gate channel and a channel-side elevation, which at least in one cross section along its axial direction exhibits an outer contour with a first section and an adjoining section facing away from the base surface. The outer contour in the first section may have at least one outer tangent that includes a first angle deviating from zero with the axial direction, and in the second section may have at least two outer tangents spaced apart from each other in an axial direction that include the same second angle angle deviating from zero and the first angle with the axial direction, and/or wherein the elevation exhibits in particular a flat front surface facing away from the base surface, which in relation to the base surface-side floor surface of the elevation is offset toward a rotational axis of the flap.
