Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an exhaust gas turbocharger for a motor vehicle. The turbocharger includes a turbine housing having a first area in which exhaust is carried to a turbine wheel and in which the turbine wheel is essentially situated and having a second area connected axially to the first area, such that the first area and the second area are essentially separated from one another by a separating element. It is provided that for thermal insulation, the separating element is made of a material having a low thermal conduction and/or thermal capacity.

Claims (24)

1. An exhaust gas turbocharger for a motor vehicle, comprising:

a turbine wheel;

a separating element;

a turbine housing having a first area, in which exhaust is carried to the turbine wheel and in which the turbine wheel is essentially arranged, and having a second area connected axially to the first area such that the first area and the second area are separated from one another by the separating element; and

wherein the separating element is constructed from a material including at least one of a low thermal expansion and a thermal capacity for thermal insulation such that the separating element reduces heat transfer from the first area to at least one of the second area and the turbine wheel.

2. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 1 , wherein the separating element is constructed from a ceramic based material.

3. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 1 , wherein the separating element constructed from of a carbon fiber material based material (CFK).

4. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 1 , wherein the separating element is inserted into a bearing element.

5. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 1 , wherein the separating element is inserted into a receptacle of a bearing element.

6. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 1 , wherein the separating element is forced by at least one spring into a receptacle of a bearing element.

7. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 6 , wherein the spring is a plate spring.

8. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 6 , wherein the spring is supported at one end on the separating element and at the other end on a bearing housing for supporting the turbine wheel.

9. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 2 , wherein the separating element is inserted into a bearing element.

10. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 2 , wherein the separating element is inserted into a receptacle of a bearing element.

11. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 2 , wherein the separating element is forced by at least one spring into a receptacle of a bearing element.

12. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 11 , wherein the spring is a plate spring.

13. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 11 , wherein the spring is supported at one end on the separating element and at the other end on a bearing housing for supporting the turbine wheel.

14. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 3 , wherein the separating element is inserted into a bearing element.

15. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 3 , wherein the separating element is inserted into a receptacle of a bearing element.

16. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 3 , wherein the separating element is forced by at least one spring into a receptacle of a bearing element.

17. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 16 , wherein the spring is a plate spring.

18. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 16 , wherein the spring is supported at one end on the separating element and at the other end on a bearing housing for supporting the turbine wheel.

19. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 4 , wherein the separating element is inserted into a receptacle of a bearing element.

20. The exhaust gas turbocharger as recited in claim 4 , wherein the separating element is forced by at least one spring into a receptacle of a bearing element.
