Abstract
An exhaust turbocharger includes an exhaust control device provided with an exhaust flap for adjusting an exhaust gas flow flowing through a turbine stage of the exhaust turbocharger during the operation thereof, a control gear coupled to the exhaust flap, and a servomotor via which the exhaust flap can be moved in a regulated and/or controlled manner by operation of the control gear at least between a closing position, in which the exhaust flap closes an exhaust gas opening in a turbocharger housing of the turbocharger, through which exhaust gas flows during the operation of the exhaust turbocharger, and at least one other position in which the exhaust flap allows exhaust gas to flow through the exhaust gas opening. The control gear is a self-locking gear via which the exhaust flap can be prestressed in the closing position thereof in relation to the turbocharger housing.
