  • Patent number: 11187236
    Abstract: The invention relates to an exhaust gas turbocharger with a manifold-flow casing, in particular a dual-flow casing (47) and a turbine wheel (34) which is rotatably arranged within said manifold-flow casing, onto which an exhaust gas flow (14; 16) may be led via at least one of several flow channels (18, 26), and an outlet opening (78; 80) following said one flow channel (18, 26) and covering an angle of 180° max. about an axis of rotation (44) of the turbine wheel (34), so that a shaft (38) is rotating which is arranged coaxially and non-rotationally relative to the turbine wheel (34), which is supported in a shaft bearing (42).

  • Patent number: 10968819
    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).
