Zusammenfassung: | A Variable Turbine Geometry (VTG) turbine turbocharger comprises a turbine wheel in a housing, and a compressor wheel coupled to the turbine wheel with a main shaft. The turbocharger additionally includes a VTG assembly in the housing, an actuator outside the housing, and an actuation pivot shaft that extends through an opening of the housing and connects the VTG assembly to the actuator. A face seal assembly seals the opening, and includes an inner ring member rotationally fixed on the pivot shaft, a disc member, and a spring seal. The disc member includes a first face that forms a seal with a surface of the housing, and is rotationally fixed to, while being movable axially relative to, the inner ring member. The spring seal seals the inner ring member and the disc member, and applies a seating force against the disc member. |
