Abstract

An aspect of an exhaust turbine according to the present disclosure is provided with: a rotating shaft; a turbine wheel attached to one end side of the rotating shaft; a turbine housing having a scroll portion formed on an outer peripheral side of the turbine wheel; a bearing housing that accommodates a bearing for supporting the rotating shaft; a fastening member that fastens a first flange portion of the turbine housing and a second flange portion of the bearing housing together; and a heat-shielding plate having an outer peripheral edge portion held between the first flange portion and the second flange portion. In a first cross section that passes through the center of the rotating shaft and a tongue portion of the turbine housing along an axial direction of the rotating shaft, when the innermost position, in a radial direction of the rotating shaft, of a contact surface between the first flange portion and the outer peripheral edge portion of the heat-shielding plate is defined as a first seal inner end, the innermost position, in the radial direction, of a contact surface between the second flange portion and the outer peripheral edge portion of the heat-shielding plate is defined as a second seal inner end, and one of the first seal inner end and the second seal inner end that is positioned outside in the radial direction is defined as a seal inner end, the seal inner end is disposed outside the tongue portion in the radial direction.

First claim
