  • Publication number: 20200355113
    Abstract: 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 to be retained radially and axially by the valve element (2).
