A compressor housing for a turbocharger dividably composed of a plurality of pieces including a scroll piece, and a shroud piece. The scroll piece and the shroud piece are assembled to each other by press-fitting a press-fitting portion of the shroud piece into a press-fitted portion of the scroll piece. Pressure-contacting portions that are provided on either one of the scroll piece and the shroud piece are pressure-contacted with pressure-contacted portions that are provided on the other one of the scroll piece and the shroud piece, respectively. As a result, the pressure-contacting portions plastically flow to form seal parts for sealing the scroll piece and the shroud piece, respectively.

A compressor housing for a turbocharger dividably composed of a plurality of pieces including a scroll piece and a shroud piece. The scroll piece and the shroud piece are assembled to each other by press-fitting a press-fitting portion of the shroud piece into a press-fitted portion of the scroll piece in an axial direction. A pressure-contacting portion provided on either one of the scroll piece and the shroud piece is pressure-contacted with a pressure-contacted portion provided on the other one of the scroll piece and the shroud piece in the axial direction to thereby cause plastic flow to both portions, so that a plastic flow portion is annularly formed. Thus, the scroll piece and the shroud piece are sealed to each other.

Turbocharging system for use with internal combustion engine

A second recirculation passage recirculates blow-by gas at an upstream section, which is upstream of an impeller of a turbocharger in an intake passage. A first passage branches and extends from a downstream section, which is downstream of the impeller in the intake passage. A second passage that forms part of the second recirculation passage connects the first passage and the upstream section to each other. A third passage, which is provided separately from the second passage, connects the first passage and the upstream section to each other. A change mechanism changes, in different manners, the flow rate of compressed gas recirculating to the upstream section through the second passage, and the flow rate of compressed gas recirculating to the upstream section through the third passage.

Turbocharger

In a compressor () of a turbocharger (), a compressor wheel () is provided in a housing () to be capable of rotating. When the wheel () rotates, air suctioned through an inlet of the housing () is compressed and then discharged through an outlet of the housing (). Further, an abradable seal layer () formed on an inner surface of the housing () is abraded by a vane () of the rotating wheel () such that a tip clearance between the vane () and a part of the inner surface of the housing () that opposes the vane () is adjusted. A corner portion () of the vane () on the outlet side of the housing () is shaped to move gradually further away from a shroud curve (Lc) of the seal layer () toward an end portion of the vane () on the outlet side of the housing ().
