A nozzle device according to some embodiments includes an annular nozzle plate, an annular nozzle mount defining a nozzle flow passage between the nozzle mount and one surface of the nozzle plate, at least one nozzle support coupling the nozzle plate and the nozzle mount, and fixed to at least the nozzle plate by caulking, and at least one nozzle vane supported between the nozzle plate and the nozzle mount. The nozzle plate has a through hole into which an end portion of the at least one nozzle support is inserted. The through hole includes a straight portion extending from the one surface toward another surface of the nozzle plate, an enlarged diameter portion formed on a side of the another surface of the nozzle plate and having a larger diameter than the straight portion, and a relief processing portion which is formed in a part of the straight portion continuing into the enlarged diameter portion and has a larger diameter than another part of the straight portion where the relief processing portion is not formed.

A turbine rotor blade according to at least one embodiment of the present invention is to be connected to a rotational shaft so as to be rotatable around an axis and includes: a hub having a hub surface inclined with respect to the axis in a cross-section along the axis; at least one rotor blade disposed on the hub surface; and a connection passage disposed inside the turbine rotor blade and connecting a first opening disposed in the at least one rotor blade and a second opening disposed downstream of the first opening in the turbine rotor blade.

Turbine rotor blade, turbocharger, and method for producing turbine rotor blade

A variable geometry turbocharger () includes a bearing housing () including a bearing-housing side support portion () configured to support a radially outer portion () of a nozzle mount () from a side opposite to a scroll flow passage () in an axial direction of a turbine rotor (), and wherein at least one of the following condition (a) or (b) is satisfied: (a) the bearing-housing side support portion () includes at least one bearing-housing side recess portion () formed so as to be recessed in the axial direction so as not to be in contact with the radially outer portion (); (b) the radially outer portion () of the nozzle mount () includes at least one nozzle-mount side recess portion () formed so as to be recessed in the axial direction so as not to be in contact with the bearing-housing side support portion ().

Variable geometry turbocharger

A compressor wheel includes a compressor wheel body, and a thermal insulating coating layer disposed so as to cover at least a part of a back surface of the compressor wheel body.

Compressor wheel and supercharger

A turbine housing includes an outer housing portion which includes an inner wall internally forming a spiral space, a first heat shield core which separates the spiral space into a scroll flow passage where an exhaust gas flows and a heat shield space positioned on a side of the inner wall, the first heat shield core being disposed so as to face the inner wall in the spiral space, a variable nozzle unit for adjusting a flow of the exhaust gas from the scroll flow passage toward an impeller, the variable nozzle unit being disposed on a side opposite to the outer housing portion across the first heat shield core in an axial direction, and at least one annular seal portion disposed between the first heat shield core and the outer housing portion in the axial direction.

Turbine housing and turbocharger including the same

A turbocharger includes a shaft, a bearing housing, a turbine housing, and a uniting member. The bearing housing includes a first connection section protruded in a radial direction of the shaft, the first connection section having a first face extended in the radial direction, the turbine housing includes a second connection section protruded in the radial direction of the shaft, the second connection section having a second face extended in the radial direction and being faced to the first face, the uniting member interposes the first connection section and the second connection section by being fitted to the first connection section and the second connection section from the outside, and the first face and/or the second face include a ring-shaped concave portion on an inner side in the radial direction of the shaft with a sealing member arranged at the ring-shaped concave portion.

Turbocharger

A variable nozzle device includes: a first plate-shaped member having a first plate portion having an annular shape and being fixed to a bearing housing; a second plate-shaped member having a second plate portion which has an annular shape and which defines a nozzle flow passage between the first plate portion and the second plate portion, the second plate portion having a surface disposed so as to face the first plate portion and another surface disposed so as to face at least partially a scroll flow passage formed inside a turbine housing; at least one nozzle support having, with respect to an axial direction of the nozzle support, an end coupled to the first plate portion and another end coupled to the second plate portion; at least one nozzle vane rotatably supported between the first plate portion and the second plate portion; and a variable nozzle mechanism configured to change a vane angle of the at least one nozzle vane. The second plate portion is formed to have a larger thickness than the first plate portion.

Variable nozzle device and variable-geometry type exhaust turbocharger

A turbocharger includes a gripping unit gripping a turbine-housing side flange portion and a bearing-housing side flange portion to couple a turbine housing and a bearing housing. In a state where the turbine housing and the bearing housing are coupled by the gripping unit, an elastic force in a direction to separate the turbine-housing side flange portion and the bearing-housing side flange portion from each other is applied to each of the turbine housing and the bearing housing.

A turbocharger includes: a turbine wheel; a turbine housing; a bearing housing; a shroud having a facing surface which faces a tip of a blade of the turbine wheel and being configured to surround the turbine wheel, the shroud comprising a separate member from the turbine housing and being disposed inside the turbine housing via a gap with respect to the turbine housing; a mount supported to at least one of the turbine housing or the bearing housing, at a position closer to the bearing housing than a scroll flow path in an axial direction of the turbine wheel; and at least one connection part connecting the mount and the shroud.

An inner peripheral edge of a first annular member includes a plurality of first inner edge portions belonging to an angular range in which support holes exist in the circumferential direction of a turbine rotor and a plurality of second inner edge portions belonging to an angular range in which the support holes do not exist in the circumferential direction of the turbine rotor. At least one second inner edge portion of the plurality of second inner edge portions comprises a recess portion recessed outward in a radial direction of the turbine rotor, the recess portion extending in an axial direction of the turbine rotor from the side of exhaust gas.
