Abstract: A variable turbine geometry turbocharger (100) with an adjustment ring assembly (45) having an adjustment ring (50) and a series of pivotable guide vanes (30) that are operably connected to the adjustment ring (50). A spring-biased retention clip (60) is between adjacent vane levers (36) and is attached to the adjustment ring (50). The retention clip (60) applies a force against the adjacent vane levers (36) and dampens and reduces movement of corresponding components.

Abstract: A turbocharger (10) includes a housing (12, 14, 16) and an actuating mechanism (46) for actuating a device (40) within the housing (12, 14, 16). A pivot shaft (42) has an inside end (48) inside the housing (12, 14, 16) and an outside end (82) outside the housing (12, 14, 16). The pivot shaft (42) is rotatably mounted in a bore (64) in the housing (12, 14, 16) for transmitting an actuating movement from outside the housing (12, 14, 16) to the actuating mechanism (46). A bushing (62) is disposed in the bore (64). The bushing (62) includes an asymmetric portion (68) that extends inside the housing (12, 14, 16) to support the inside end (48) of the pivot shaft (42).

Abstract: A tilting pad (80, 180) (TP) journal bearing (30, 32, 132) is used to support a rotating assembly of a turbocharger (10). The TP journal bearing (30, 32, 132) includes a cylindrical outer ring (60, 160) and tilting pads (80, 180) disposed within the outer ring (60, 160). The tilting pads (80, 180) are formed separately from the outer ring (60, 160) and secured thereto during assembly.

Abstract: A product for a turbocharger assembly is disclosed. A turbine wheel assembly may be adapted to rotate when exposed to a flow of gas. A vane ring may be disposed in the turbine wheel assembly. A plurality of vanes may be mounted to the vane ring. The flow of gas may meet the plurality of vanes at an angle of incidence. The plurality of vanes may be adjustable to selectively change the angle of incidence. The vane ring may have at least one slot adapted to direct a thermal deformation of the vane ring in a selected direction when exposed to the flow of gas.

Abstract: A turbocharger includes a shaft extending between first and second shaft ends. A turbine wheel is coupled to the first shaft end, and a bearing housing defines a bearing housing interior and is disposed about the shaft. A turbine housing defines a turbine housing interior and is disposed about the turbine wheel. A sealing assembly includes a case disposed about the shaft and extending between a first case end proximate to the turbine wheel and a second case end distal from the turbine wheel. The sealing assembly also includes a ring disposed between the shaft and the case such that the ring is unobstructed by the case radially between the shaft and the ring. The sealing assembly further includes a deformable component coupled to the second case end and to the ring, and is moveable with the ring to seal the bearing housing interior and the turbine housing interior.

Abstract: A method of balancing a core assembly of a turbocharger. The core assembly may include a rotor assembly having a compressor wheel and a turbine wheel connected for common rotation by a shaft. A first bending critical speed of the rotor assembly may be determined. The core assembly may be mounted in a balancing machine. A drive source may be engaged with the core assembly to impart rotation. The rotor assembly may be rotated at an initial phase speed that is between approximately 5500 revolutions per minute and the first bending critical speed. A state of imbalance of the rotor assembly may be determined at the initial phase speed.

Abstract: A variable turbine geometry assembly includes an adjustment ring extending along and rotatable about an axis, at least one vane lever coupled to the adjustment ring, and at least one vane coupled to the at least one vane lever. The variable turbine geometry assembly also includes a biasing member coupled to the adjustment ring at a first circumferential location on the adjustment ring and coupled to the adjustment ring at a second circumferential location on the adjustment ring. The biasing member extends from the first circumferential location to the second circumferential location. The biasing member is operably in contact with the at least one vane lever between the first circumferential location and the second circumferential location to bias the at least one vane lever toward the adjustment ring and to reduce vibration between the adjustment ring and the at least one vane lever.
