Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A turbocharger ( 1 ) with variable turbine geometry (VTG), having a blade bearing ring ( 6 ), which has a multiplicity of guide blades ( 7 ), and which has a stop ( 25 ) at least for adjusting the minimum throughflow through the nozzle cross sections formed by the guide blades ( 7 ), wherein the stop ( 25 ) has a fixing peg ( 32 ) on which a deformable, arched adjusting section ( 26 ) is arranged. Since the stop is formed as a deformable component which can be fixed in the guide grate, it is possible after the assembly of the guide grate to rework said stop in a simple manner in order to precisely set the required stop position, since said stop is not integrally connected to the guide grate.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A turbocharger ( 1 ) with variable turbine geometry (VTG), having a turbine housing ( 2 ) with a supply duct ( 9 ) for exhaust gases; having a turbine rotor ( 4 ) which is rotatably mounted in the turbine housing ( 2 ); and having a guide grate ( 18 ) which surrounds the turbine rotor ( 4 ) radially at the outside, which has a blade bearing ring ( 6 ), which has a multiplicity of guide blades ( 7 ) which have in each ease one blade shaft ( 8 )…
