  • Methods and systems for a compressor housing
    Patent number: 11136997
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for a turbocharger. In one example, a system comprises a compressor housing clamped to a bearing housing via a clamp ring. The clamp ring may be configured to at least partially detach the compressor and allow the compressor to rotate and/or shift in response to a force.
    Type: Grant

  • System and method for a phase control apparatus of a cam timing system
    Patent number: 10458289
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for a phase control apparatus in a variable cam timing (VCT) system of an engine, the phase control apparatus having a locking pin coupled to a rotor vane and engageable with a locking pin recess in the phase control apparatus cover plate. In one example, a method for assembling the phase control apparatus may include positioning respective retarded side surfaces of the rotor vane and the housing in face-sharing contact while positioning respective retarded side surfaces of the locking pin and the locking pin recess in face-sharing contact and maintaining a backlash gap between only the advanced side surfaces of the locking pin recess.
