Abstract
Abstract An exhaust gas turbocharger for internal combustion engines with a turbine wheel traversed by the exhaust gases radially from the outside toward the inside and with a water-cooled housing; a ring-shaped insert member of heat-resistant steel which is centered in the housing is arranged radially about the turbine wheel between the turbine wheel and the housing, which forms the outer fixed turbine wheel cover and takes over the guidance of the exhaust gases both during the entry and discharge out of the turbine wheel.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
89 words
An exhaust gas turbocharger for internal combustion engines, comprising a turbine wheel means traversed by exhaust gases radially from the outside toward the inside and a water-cooled housing means, characterized in that an insert means of heat-resistant steel which is of annular shape is arranged radially about the turbine wheel means between the turbine wheel means and the housing means, said insert means forming the outer fixed turbine covering and taking over the guidance of the exhaust gases during entry into and discharge out of the turbine wheel means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
89 words
An exhaust gas turbocharger for internal combustion engines, comprising a turbine wheel means traversed by exhaust gases radially from the outside toward the inside and a water-cooled housing means, characterized in that an insert means of heat-resistant steel which is of annular shape is arranged radially about the turbine wheel means between the turbine wheel means and the housing means, said insert means forming the outer fixed turbine covering and taking over the guidance of the exhaust gases during entry into and discharge out of the turbine wheel means.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
20 words
An exhaust gas turbocharger according to claim 1, characterized in that the insert means is centered in the housing means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
90 words
An exhaust gas turbocharger according to claim 1, with a housing means subdivided transversely to the axial direction of the exhaust gas turbocharger substantially at the height of the turbine wheel means, characterized in that the insert means is centered at a first housing part by way of a collar at the housing means and by way of a corresponding bore in the insert means and at another housing part by way of a collar at the insert means and by way of a corresponding bore in the housing means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
38 words
An exhaust gas turbocharger according to claim 3, characterized in that the insert means is axially fixed by way of a tubularly shaped exhaust gas inlet connection means of the insert means arranged between the two housing parts.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
71 words
An exhaust gas turbocharger according to claim 1, with a housing means subdivided substantially transversely to the axial direction of the exhaust gas turbocharger at the height of the turbine wheel discharge, characterized in that at least one pipe elbow means is inserted in a connection flange surface means arranged along the circumference of a first housing part, which establishes the connection between the exhaust gas line and the insert means.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
26 words
An exhaust gas turbocharger according to claim 5, characterized in that the pipe elbow means is sealingly clamped fast by the assembly of a connecting flange.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
22 words
An exhaust gas turbocharger according to claim 5, characterized in that the pipe elbow means is directly secured at the housing means.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
25 words
An exhaust gas turbocharger means according to claim 5, characterized in that only one pipe elbow means is provided for a single-flow exhaust gas feed.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
24 words
An exhaust gas turbocharger means according to claim 5, characterized in that two pipe elbow means are provided for a double-flow exhaust gas feed.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
45 words
An exhaust gas turbocharger according to claim 5, characterized in that one housing part is constructed as exhaust gas elbow which during the assembly is selectively connected with the other housing part in different pivoted positions corresponding to the requirements of the internal combustion engine.
