Abstract
An exhaust-gas turbocharger (1) having a turbine (2) which is provided with a variable turbine geometry and/or with a wastegate; and having an actuator (6) which is connected to the variable turbine geometry and/or to the wastegate by means of a coupling rod (9) composed of plastic. The coupling rod (9) is connected, at its end regions, by means of a first eyelet (8) at one side to a pin (7) of the actuator (6) and by means of a second eyelet (12) at the other side to a pin (11) of an adjusting lever (10) of the variable turbine geometry and/or of the wastegate. The eyelets (8, 12) of the coupling rod (9) are provided with in each case one metal sleeve (13 and 14 respectively).

An exhaust-gas turbocharger (1) having
- a turbine (2) which is provided with a variable turbine geometry and/or with a wastegate;
- and
- an actuator (6) which is connected to the variable turbine geometry and/or to the wastegate by means of a coupling rod (9) composed of plastic, wherein the coupling rod (9) is connected, at its end regions, by means of a first eyelet (8) at one end to a pin (7) of the actuator (6) and by means of a second eyelet (12) at the other end to a pin (11) of an adjusting lever (10) of the variable turbine geometry and/or of the wastegate,
- wherein
- the eyelets (8, 12) of the coupling rod (9) are provided with in each case one metal sleeve (13 and 14 respectively).
A coupling rod (9) of an exhaust-gas turbocharger (1), having two end regions which are spaced apart from one another and in which eyelets (8 and 12) are formed, wherein the eyelets (8, 12) are provided with in each case one metal sleeve (13 and 14).
