Abstract:
The guide blades provided for the variable turbine geometry are adjustably arranged within a radial gap through which gases can flow on a moveable carrier ring, which is axially clamped against stops on or in the radial gap with a thrust spring device. According to the invention, the thrust spring device loads the carrier ring on the positions closely adjacent to the stops. The thrust spring device is designed open without sealing function and if applicable combined with a separate seal without thrust function.
Abstract:
The role of certain cellular kinases active during Human Cytomegalovirus infection is disclosed. These cellular kinases are useful to detect HCMV infection, and can be used to screen for cellular kinase inhibitors. Cellular kinases inhibitors, which effectively downregulate these key cellular components, serve as effective therapeutics against HCMV infection.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a charging device (1), more preferably an exhaust gas turbocharger for a motor vehicle, which turbine geometry comprises guide blades (5) rotatably mounted in a blade bearing ring (4), wherein the blade bearing ring (4) with a side is directly exposed to a hot gas flow (12) while the side of the blade bearing ring (4) facing away from this is only indirectly exposed to the hot gas flow (12). It is substantial to the invention that the blade bearing ring (4) on its side directly exposed to the hot gas flow (12) is produced of a different material than on its side only indirectly exposed to the hot gas flow (12) wherein the two materials with regard to their heat expansion coefficients are selected in such a manner that the blade bearing ring (4) at preferentially all occurring operating temperatures expands evenly without warping.
Abstract:
A motor vehicle system device having a drive assembly, to which a charging device is assigned, has a compressor having at least one compressor runner supported using at least one bearing, the bearing having a stationary first bearing part and a second bearing part that is operatively connected to the compressor runner. An overpressure source is connected to the bearing, using which an overpressure is able to be produced in a bearing gap that is present between the first bearing part and the second bearing part. The overpressure source is the compressor and/or a part of a tandem pump, which besides the overpressure also makes available low air pressure for a user of the motor vehicle system device. The invention also relates to a method for operating a motor vehicle system device.
Abstract:
An exhaust gas turbocharger, comprising: a turbine rotor rotatably mounted in a housing, which is associated with at least one guide apparatus forming a radial inlet channel, wherein the guide apparatus includes at least one of a guide vane bearing ring, a plurality of guide vanes radially surrounding the turbine rotor and located in the inlet channel and a guide vane cover ring. The inlet channel is axially delimited by the guide vane bearing ring and the guide vane cover ring wherein the guide vane bearing ring and the guide vane cover ring are moveably mounted at least one of axially and radially relative to each other and to the housing. The guide apparatus is subjected to at least one of an axial and radial preload, wherein a line of axial preload flux runs through the guide apparatus substantially parallel to the rotational axis of the turbine rotor.
Abstract:
A turbocharger, comprising: at least one of a turbine housing, a bearing housing and a turbine wheel, wherein the turbine wheel is rotatably mounted about an axis and includes a guide apparatus with a plurality of guide vanes rotatably mounted in pivot bearings on a guide vane support, wherein the guide vanes influence the flow in a flow channel of the turbine housing; and a spring element, which moveably loads the guide apparatus in an axial direction against a wall of the turbine housing, and wherein the disc springs seal a displacement chamber provided with a displacement mechanism of the guide apparatus against the flow channel.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a charging device, more preferably a turbocharger, with a spring for clamping the guide blade carrier (9) against a stop device arranged opposite the spring such as for example a plurality of spacer elements (12) or the like. Particularly advantageous is the use of a cantilever spring (3), as a result of which a region of high thermal load of the cantilever spring (3) can be separated from a region of high mechanical load.

Abstract:
The invention relates to a piece of charging equipment having a variable turbine geometry (1), which has guide vanes (3, 4) that are rotatably mounted between a guide vane carrier (2) and a cover disc, wherein the cover disc is fixed/positioned on the guide vane carrier (2) by means of spacers (5) and wherein the variable turbine geometry (1) has at least two different types of flow channels (6, 7), namely a first flow channel (6) in which a flow behaviour is influenced by an associated spacer (5), and a second flow channel (7) in which a flow behaviour is not influenced by the spacers (5). Necessary for the definition of the invention is that the guide vanes (3) respectively arranged in the region of the first flow channel (6) with regard to their shape, their radial distance (R1) to a turbine wheel axis (8), and/or with regard to their distance from an adjacent guide vane (4) are configured and adjusted in such a manner that a gas flow, which is from the first flow channel (6), meeting the turbine wheel is at least matched to the gas flow, which is from the second flow channel (7), meeting the turbine wheel.
