  • Patent number: 8166756
    Abstract: A turbine intake pressure release structure to control pressure release between a throttle and a first turbine boosted pressure outlet includes a pressure release valve which has a first pressure orifice, a second pressure orifice and a housing chamber, at least one controller which has a pressure detection end and a driven portion and a switch duct which has a first end opening, a second end opening and a third end opening. The first end opening is connected to a third turbine boosted pressure outlet. The second end opening leads to the atmosphere. The third end opening is connected to the second pressure orifice. The driven portion runs through the switch duct to close the second end opening through the driven portion drive a membrane to a first position or closes the first end opening through the driven portion to drive the membrane to a second position.

  • Publication number: 20100263370
    Abstract: A multi-stage turbocharger regulation apparatus includes a casing which has a housing chamber, a driving membrane and at least one floating membrane. The housing chamber has at least one blocking portion. The linkage bar runs through the bottom surface of the casing into the housing chamber to couple with a spring. The driving membrane pushes the linkage bar and also pushes the spring between the driving membrane and the bottom surface of the casing. The floating membrane has at least one opening. The driving membrane is pushed by the elastic force of the spring to block the opening. The floating membrane is compressed by a control gas to drive the driving membrane to push the spring and the linkage bar, or force the driving membrane to separate from the floating membrane to push the linkage bar and the spring. Thereby the wastegate can be opened or closed.
