Exhaust gas turbocharger for an internal combustion engine, particularly of a motor vehicle
An exhaust gas turbocharger for an internal combustion engine, particularly of a motor vehicle, is disclosed. The exhaust gas turbocharger includes a bearing housing having at least one through hole for a rotor of the exhaust gas turbocharger for supporting the rotor. At least one housing cover is connected to the bearing housing such that the through hole is sealed at least partially in the axial direction of the exhaust gas turbocharger. The housing cover is connected to the bearing housing by exactly one threaded element having an external thread, which threaded element is screwed to the bearing housing by its external thread and a corresponding internal thread of the bearing housing.
1. An exhaust gas turbocharger for an internal combustion engine, comprising:
a rotor;
a bearing housing having a through hole for the rotor;
a housing cover; and
a threaded cover;
wherein the threaded cover has a larger outside diameter than the housing cover and wherein the threaded cover is embodied as an annular threaded cover;
wherein the bearing housing, the housing cover and the threaded cover are separate components, wherein the housing cover is not integrally formed with the threaded cover and wherein at least a portion of the housing cover is disposed in an axial direction between the threaded cover and the bearing housing;
wherein the threaded cover is screwed to the bearing housing via an external thread of the threaded cover and an internal thread of the bearing housing and the housing cover is pressed in the axial direction against the bearing housing when the threaded cover is screwed to the bearing housing.
2. The exhaust gas turbocharger according to claim 1 , wherein the housing cover is received at least partially in the threaded cover.
3. The exhaust gas turbocharger according to claim 1 , wherein an impeller of the rotor is mounted on the bearing housing so as to rotate relative to the bearing housing about an axis of rotation, wherein the impeller has a wheel back that faces toward the bearing housing and has a flat wheel back region that is disposed so as to overlap at least partially with a region of the housing cover and/or a region of the threaded cover, and wherein the region of the housing cover and the region of the threaded cover are arched in the axial direction away from the flat wheel back region.
4. The exhaust gas turbocharger according to claim 1 , wherein the housing cover has a receptacle for a seal element for sealing the housing cover against the bearing housing.
5. The exhaust gas turbocharger according to claim 1 , further comprising an axial bearing, wherein the rotor is supported by the axial bearing and wherein the axial bearing is held by the threaded cover on the bearing housing.
6. An internal combustion engine, comprising an exhaust gas turbocharger according to claim 1 .
