TURBOCHARGER WITH ROTARY BYPASS VALVE OPERABLE TO SELECTIVELY CONFIGURE THE TURBINE VOLUTE AS SINGLE-SCROLL OR TWIN-SCROLL

A turbocharger has an annular bypass valve disposed in an annular portion of a bypass passage of the turbine housing. The turbine housing defines an exhaust gas chamber having separate half-annular first and second scrolls, and a portion of the bypass passage is sector-divided by a pair of dividing...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A turbocharger has an annular bypass valve disposed in an annular portion of a bypass passage of the turbine housing. The turbine housing defines an exhaust gas chamber having separate half-annular first and second scrolls, and a portion of the bypass passage is sector-divided by a pair of dividing walls that create two 180-degree bypass sectors respectively connected to the first and second scrolls. Each dividing wall has a through-hole. The valve rotor defines a pair of valve members that close the through-holes when the bypass valve is fully closed. When the valve rotor begins to rotate toward an open position, first the valve members open the through-holes to connect the two bypass sectors, and then the bypass flow passages begin to open.
