Abstract: A turbocharger unit has a shaft mounting for a rotor shaft. The shaft supports at one end a turbine wheel and at its other end a compressor wheel. The shaft is supported in a bearing housing by two axially spaced bearing elements, one of which forms an axial support via a shoulder on the shaft. A desired exact bearing pre-load is attainable if a discharger ring is mounted on the shaft by a threaded joint in such a way that the ring forms an axial support acting in the opposite axial direction against the other bearing element.

Abstract: A turbo-charged internal combustion engine with a twin-entry exhaust turbine and with a valve arrangement (20) disposed in the turbine housing (11). By means of the valve arrangement (20) the exhaust channels (9, 10) in the turbine housing can be short-circuited. The valve arrangement also functions as a waste-gate valve by virtue of the fact that its valve element (26), in one position, permits exhaust to by-pass the turbine housing through a shunt (18).
