Abstract
A turbine housing assembly includes a plurality of constituent members connected to one another and easily manufactured. The turbine housing assembly includes a scroll part, an annular lid part, an exhaust gas outlet and a connection part connectable to a bearing housing for a turbine shaft. The scroll part and the connection part are each formed of a single piece of sheet metal and each is welded to the annular lid part that is orthogonal to a turbine axial direction so that the scroll part and the connection part are connected to each other via the annular lid part. Such a turbine housing assembly is of reduced weight, is quite easy to manufacture, of reduced cost, and can be made, at least in part, of materials having lower heat capacity as compared to conventional turbine housings made of sheet metal.
