Abstract: 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.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a valve arrangement (100) for a multi-channel turbine (10), having a housing section (300) with a first volute (320), with a second volute (340) and with a connecting region (360) between the first volute (320) and the second volute (340), and having a valve body (110) for closing off the connecting region (360) in a closed position of the valve body (110). A wall region (370) of the housing section (300), which wall region is arranged in the connecting region (360) and is situated opposite the valve body (110) in the closed position, is configured to be optimized in terms of flow to increase, during operation of the valve arrangement (100), a rate of flow transfer of exhaust gas between the first volute (320) and the second volute (340) in an open position of the valve body (110).

Abstract: The invention relates to a valve assembly (100) for a multi-scroll turbine (10) for controlling an overflow of exhaust gases between a first spiral (36) and a second spiral (38) and for controlling a bypass opening (50). The valve assembly 100 comprises a lever (110) and a valve closing element (120) which is operatively connected to the lever (110). Furthermore, the valve assembly (100) comprises a spring element (130) which is designed to pre-bias the valve closing element (120) the against lever (110).

Abstract: A compact flow control valve capable of providing long service life in a very hostile environment. The valve is a mono or dual coaxial slider valve capable of controlling two different functions sequentially, at least one of the functions being controlled progressively. The flow control valve controls the fluid connection between two volutes (6, 7) of a turbine housing (2) of a turbocharger as well as the fluid connection between the two volutes (6, 7) of the turbine housing (2) of the turbocharger and a waste gate port (9).
