Abstract: An exhaust turbocharger includes an air-guiding section. A spiral channel is formed downstream of a wheel chamber in the air-guiding section. Between the wheel chamber and the spiral channel, a diffuser channel is formed in the air-guiding section. Upstream of the wheel chamber, an inlet channel is formed in the air-guiding section for the inflow of fluid to be compressed. In the inlet channel, a cross-section-changing unit. The cross-section-changing unit comprises an operating element with at least two movable element parts to produce a baffle which can protrude, with the aid of an adjusting unit, into the inlet cross-section rotationally and/or in a translational manner or can be removed from the inlet cross-section. The two element parts are fixedly disposed at one element end jointly in the air-guiding section. A relative movement of the element parts can be brought about in particular in an opposing direction.

Abstract: An air filter group for air supply to internal combustion engines of motor vehicles, of a type comprising an external casing provided with an inlet opening of the air to be filtered, and an outlet opening of the filtered air, and a removable cover, the inlet and outlet openings being separated by a removable filter cartridge which comprises a hollow cylindrical filter wall crossed by the air in a centripetal direction, in which the at least a filter cartridge is fixed to the cover in which cover a chamber is present, delimited by a base provided with at least a hole at which the at least a cartridge is fixed, by an opposite wall to the base and by an annular wall located between the base and the opposite wall and comprising the outlet hole of the filtered air, the cover being destined to be inserted sealedly in the casing.

Abstract: One illustrative embodiment includes a turbocharger (16, 18) with a turbine (94) and a compressor (96). The turbine (94) has an inlet passage (114) which may directly communicate with a blowdown exhaust passage (34, 36, 38) of a cylinder head (12) of an internal combustion engine (14). The inlet passage (114) may directly receive exhaust gas from the blowdown exhaust passage (34, 36, 38).

Abstract: The invention relates to a turbine casing of an exhaust-gas turbocharger, having an inlet connection piece adjoined by a spiral, and having an outlet connection piece, characterized by an insulating device for reducing the input of heat into the inlet connection piece, the spiral and/or the outlet connection piece.

Abstract: An EGR-mixer system may include an exhaust gas recirculation valve and a venturi mixer. The venturi mixer may be constructed and arranged to facilitate condensation of water out of exhaust gas and/or intake air entering the EGR-mixer system after which the condensate may be collected and the exhaust gas and/or intake air may flow through the EGR-mixer system.

Abstract: A mechanism may include a housing with an inlet passage and an outlet passage joined to the inlet passage by a valve chamber. The valve chamber may contain a plurality of vanes. The vanes may be arranged to: substantially close flow between the inlet passage and the outlet passage; induce swirl between the inlet passage and the outlet passage in both a first direction and a second direction; and be positioned parallel to flow between the inlet passage and the outlet passage. Closing off flow from the inlet passage may enhance flow from an exhaust gas port to the outlet passage.
