Turbine for an exhaust turbocharger, exhaust turbocharger, motor vehicle and method for operating an exhaust turbocharger

1. A turbine for an exhaust gas turbocharger, the turbine comprising:

a turbine flap disposed at a turbine outlet for controlling a quantity of exhaust gas flowing through the turbine;

a waste gate aperture for allowing exhaust gas to bypass the turbine; and

a waste gate flap for controlling a quantity of exhaust gas flowing through said waste gate aperture;

said turbine flap and said waste gate flap being disposed on a common waste gate spindle and connected for conjoint rotation, said turbine flap and said waste gate flap being disposed offset relative to one another in a longitudinal direction and a circumferential direction of said spindle;

said turbine flap and said waste gate flap having rounded valve elements configured for respectively pivoting into exhaust gas flow flowing through said turbine outlet and said waste gate aperture by rotation of said waste gate spindle and wherein there is a linear relationship between a degree of opening of said turbine outlet and an angle of rotation of said spindle and there is a linear relationship between a degree of opening of said waste gate aperture and an angle of rotation of said spindle.

2. The turbine according to claim 1 , which comprises a turbine housing, wherein said waste gate aperture is formed in said turbine housing and wherein said turbine flap and said waste gate flap are disposed in the turbine housing.

3. The turbine according to claim 1 , which comprises an actuating means for rotating said spindle.

4. The turbine according to claim 1 , wherein said spindle is disposed for rotation into a first position, in which the turbine outlet is completely closed and in which said waste gate aperture is completely open.

5. The turbine according to claim 1 , wherein said spindle is disposed for rotation into a second position, in which the turbine outlet is at least partially open and in which said waste gate aperture is at least partially open.

6. The turbine according to claim 1 , wherein said spindle is disposed for rotation into an end position, in which the turbine outlet is completely open and in which said waste gate aperture is completely closed, wherein said waste gate flap is pressed against a valve seat of said waste gate aperture to prevent leaks of exhaust gas in the end position.

7. The turbine according to claim 1 , wherein said spindle is disposed for rotation into a first position, in which the turbine outlet is completely closed and in which said waste gate aperture is completely open, into a second position, in which the turbine outlet is at least partially open and in which said waste gate aperture is at least partially open, and into an end position, in which the turbine outlet is completely open and in which said waste gate aperture is completely closed, wherein said waste gate flap is pressed against a valve seat of said waste gate aperture to prevent leaks of exhaust gas in the end position.

8. The turbine according to claim 1 configured for an exhaust gas turbocharger of a motor vehicle.

9. An exhaust turbocharger, comprising:

a turbine according to claim 1 , said turbine having:

a turbine housing and a turbine rotor arranged in said turbine housing;

a compressor having a compressor housing;

a compressor impeller disposed in said compressor housing; and

a turbocharger shaft connecting said compressor impeller to said turbine rotor for conjoint rotation.

10. A motor vehicle, comprising a turbine for an exhaust turbocharger according to claim 6 .

11. A method of operating an exhaust turbocharger, the method which comprises:

providing the exhaust turbocharger with a turbine according to claim 1 ;

operating the turbine in a first operating mode, in which the turbine flap is completely closed and in which the waste gate flap is completely opened, in order to cause an entire quantity of exhaust gas to flow through the waste gate aperture.

12. The method according to claim 11 , which comprises operating the turbine in a second operating mode, in which the turbine flap and the waste gate flap are at least partially opened, in order to cause a quantity of exhaust gas to flow partially through the turbine and partially through the waste gate aperture.

13. The method according to claim 11 , which comprises operating the turbine in a third operating mode, in which the turbine flap is completely opened and in which the waste gate flap is completely closed, to cause an entire quantity of exhaust gas to flow through the turbine.
