Turbomachine

A turbocharger comprising:

• a turbine for expanding a first medium, wherein the turbine comprises a turbine housing and a turbine rotor;
• a compressor for compressing a second medium utilizing energy extracted in the turbine during expansion of the first medium, wherein the compressor comprises a compressor housing and a compressor rotor coupled to the turbine rotor via a shaft;
• wherein the turbine housing and the compressor housing are each connected to a bearing housing arranged between the compressor housing and the turbine housing;
• the shaft being mounted in the bearing housing;
• a housing at least in sections surrounding the turbine housing and/or the compressor housing and/or the bearing housing, the housing at least formed from a first housing section and a second housing section connected to one another;
• screw connections for connecting the at least first and second housing sections;
• and
• shearing force absorption elements formed or fastened on the first housing section and extending through the second housing section, the shearing force absorption elements constructed and disposed to absorb the shearing forces in the event of shearing forces occurring and to relieve the screw connections of the shearing forces.
