    摘要: The invention relates to an exhaust gas turbocharger having a hydrodynamic plain bearing or a hydrodynamic plain bearing, comprising a rotor (10) and a counter-bearing part (50) assigned to the rotor (10), wherein a rotor bearing surface of the rotor (10) and a counterface of the counter-bearing part (50) face each other to form the hydrodynamic plain bearing in the form of a combined journal—thrust bearing, having a continuous hydrodynamically load bearing gap formed between the rotor bearing surface and the counterface, wherein the rotor bearing surface and/or the counterface, when cut longitudinally and through the axis of rotation (R) in sectional view, form(s) a bearing contour forming merging contour sections (17.1 to 17.3; 44.1 to 44.3; 53.1 to 53.3) to generate hydrodynamic load capacities in both the radial and the axial direction, wherein a contour section (17.3; 44.3; 53.3) in sectional view in a first bearing area forms a linear section that is part of a, in particular cylindrical or partially cylindrical, bearing section rotating at least sectionally about the axis of rotation (R), wherein a further contour section (17.1; 44.1; 53.1), in sectional view in a second bearing area, forms a further linear section, which is part of a further bearing area rotating at least sectionally about the axis of rotation (R), wherein this further linear section forms an angle with the axis of rotation (R), and wherein the first and the second bearing area merge via a transition section. According to the invention, a friction-optimized bearing system is to be created, which is easy to manufacture and ensures a reliable and effective bearing arrangement even under highly dynamic loads. According to the invention, this is achieved by the further linear section forming an angle in the range from >30° to

    摘要: A rotary assembly is provided that may be operably connected to an engine. The rotary assembly may include a rotary device comprising a turbine wheel, a shaft connected to the turbine wheel, and a case that houses the shaft and the turbine wheel. The turbine wheel may receive exhaust gas from the engine which causes rotation of the turbine wheel and the shaft. The case may include an interior surface that defines a hollow volume in which the turbine wheel and the shaft are located. The case has a radial thickness extending from the interior surface to an exterior surface of the case. The case may include a lattice structure integrated within the radial thickness of the case. The lattice structure may include a repeating three-dimensional array of frame segments connected to one another at junctions and defining interstitial spaces between the frame segments.

    摘要: A housing includes a seal, a first portion for receiving a first axial portion of a rotor, and a second portion for receiving a second axial portion of the rotor. The first portion includes a first cooling system having a cooling channel through which cooling medium flows and a first cooling channel intake, and a first abutment face which surrounds the first cooling channel intake. The second portion includes a second cooling system having a cooling channel through which cooling medium flows and a second cooling channel intake, and a second abutment face which surrounds the second cooling channel intake. The housing portions are connected so that the abutment faces rest on each other and the cooling channel intakes form a transition surrounded by the abutment faces. The seal is arranged between the abutment faces and extends around the transition and is spaced apart from the cooling channel intakes.

    摘要: A recirculation fan turbocharger assembly (23) recycles hydrogen and supplies air in a fuel cell system. The assembly (23) includes a fan (25), a compressor (27), and an electric drive (31) and/or a turbine (29). The fan (25) has an impeller (255) which is designed to convey a hydrogen containing recycle stream (250) to a fuel cell unit (1). The compressor (27) has a compressor wheel (275) which is designed to compress an air stream (270) for a fuel cell unit. The compressor wheel (275) and the impeller (255) are coupled to one another in a rotationally fixed manner. The electric drive (31) and/or a turbine (29) is/are designed to drive the impeller (255) and the compressor wheel (275) simultaneously.

    摘要: A turbocharger is provided with: a rotational shaft; a rolling bearing rotatably supporting the rotational shaft; an oil film damper disposed radially outward of an outer ring of the rolling bearing; and a housing having a first axial retaining portion and a second axial retaining portion, disposed adjacent to both ends of the oil film damper in the axial direction, respectively, for restricting movement of the outer ring in the axial direction. An axial end surface of the outer ring, or a facing surface of the first axial retaining portion or the second axial retaining portion facing the axial end surface of the outer ring has: a coefficient of static friction smaller than that of a portion of the housing excluding the first axial retaining portion and the second axial retaining portion; or has a recess where oil of the oil film damper can enter.
