Abstract: The present invention relates to a flow-modifying device for a compressor of a charging apparatus. The flow-modifying device comprises a cylindrical housing portion, which defines an inner lateral surface and in the axial direction comprises a downstream end region and an upstream end region. The flow-modifying device furthermore comprises a plurality of pockets, which are arranged on the inner lateral surface, spaced-apart from one another in the peripheral direction. Each pocket is defined here by a longitudinal projection line and a depth projection line. In an orientation plane, which is formed by the longitudinal projection line and the depth projection line, there is arranged a downstream angle of entry ? of the pocket relative to the inner lateral surface and an upstream angle of entry ? of the pocket relative to the inner lateral surface. The downstream angle of entry ? defines a downstream opening region of the pocket and the upstream angle of entry ? defines an upstream opening region of the pocket.

Abstract: A compressor housing of an exhaust-gas turbocharger is formed as a pressure-die-cast housing to achieve cost reduction in relation to permanent-mold-cast housings. Since it is not possible in a pressure-die-cast housing to realize round transitions of the spiral in the direction of the housing rear side because this would prevent removal from a mold, the bearing-housing-side diffuser wall is formed as a separate component.

Abstract: Turbochargers operate at extremely high speed, so balance of the rotating core is of the utmost importance to turbocharger life. A special frusto-conical, or frusto-spherical, centering geometry is added to the interface of the compressor nut and the nose of the compressor wheel to aid in keeping the wheel, nut, and stub-shaft centered on the turbocharger axis to reduce the degree of core unbalance.
