Abstract: A turbocharger includes a turbine housing. The turbine housing includes a turbine inlet wall defining an inlet passage, an exducer shroud wall defining an exducer interior, a turbine outlet wall defining an outlet passage, a wastegate port wall defining a wastegate channel, and a bushing wall coupled to the wastegate port wall and defining a bushing boss extending along a bushing axis, and a valve seat disposed about the wastegate channel. The turbocharger also includes a wastegate assembly. The wastegate assembly includes a valve element engageable with the valve seat. The wastegate port wall is disposed outside of the exducer interior such that the wastegate port wall and the bushing wall are configured to be thermally decoupled from the turbine inlet wall and such that relative displacement between the valve seat and the bushing axis is reduced during operation of the turbocharger.

Abstract: A turbocharger includes a turbine housing and a wastegate assembly. The turbine housing has a wastegate duct defining a wastegate channel and a valve seat disposed about the wastegate channel. The wastegate assembly has a valve body engageable with the valve seat and a shaft fixed to the valve body at a connection interface for selectively engaging the valve body with the valve seat at a first plane. The connection interface has a centroid and a second plane tangential to the centroid. A second axis is normal to the second plane and is angularly tilted relative to a first axis normal to the first plane at which the valve body and the valve seat are engaged.

Abstract: An asymmetric twin scroll turbine 10 combined with an integrated exhaust manifold cylinder head 20 may be designed to accommodate mixed, radial or axial flow turbines. The asymmetric twin scroll turbine 10 includes a first scroll 11 and second scroll 12 wherein the first scroll 11 is larger and has greater mass flow capacity than the second scroll 12. The larger volute increases flow capacity and counteracts backpressure creating evenly balanced or equalized peak pressures and pulsations between both volutes and balancing of gas flow between cylinder sets. By equalizing peak pressures, pulsations, and gas flow between cylinder sets, engine self-ignition can be avoided in the cylinder set that would have had the largest peak pressures and pulsations. By in creasing flow capacity of the larger volute and balancing gas flow between cylinder sets, the turbine pressure differential is reduced and the engine can operate more efficiently, improving fuel economy.

Abstract: A wastegate assembly includes a valve arm moveable between a first position and a second position to control flow of exhaust gas to a turbine housing interior of a turbocharger. The valve arm includes a proximal end, a distal end spaced from the proximal end, and a valve arm orientation projection spaced from the distal end and extending away from the proximal end. The wastegate assembly also includes a valve body coupled to the distal end of the valve arm that is moveable with the valve arm. The valve body includes a valve body orientation component, and the orientation projection of the valve arm extends toward and is orientable with the orientation component of the valve body to orient the valve arm relative to the valve body. The valve body is disposed between the orientation projection of the valve arm and the distal end of the valve arm.

Abstract: A turbocharger includes a turbine housing including an interior surface defining a turbine housing interior. The interior surface extends between a turbine housing inlet and a turbine housing outlet. The turbine housing also includes a wastegate duct disposed downstream of the turbine housing inlet and defining a wastegate channel. The turbocharger also includes a valve seat disposed about the wastegate channel, with the valve seat having a valve seat plane extending along the valve seat. The turbocharger further includes a wastegate assembly including a valve element engageable with the valve seat. The wastegate channel extends along a channel axis, and the channel axis is obliquely oriented with respect to the valve seat plane such that the wastegate channel and the valve element are configured to direct exhaust gas to a catalytic converter.
