Abstract
This double scroll turbine comprises a valve device. The valve device includes: a valve rod that extends so as to cross a connection flow path and is provided so that the axis passes through an outlet; a first opening/closing plate that is attached to the valve rod so as to extend along the axis and is for opening/closing the connection flow path with the rotation of the valve rod; and a second opening/closing plate that extends in a direction intersecting the axis and, as compared to the first opening/closing plate, is attached to the valve rod on a side closer to the outlet, and is for opening/closing a bypass flow path with the rotation of the valve rod.
Claims8
A double scroll turbine comprising:
- a turbine housing formed with two double scroll-type scroll flow paths configured to guide exhaust gas to a turbine wheel and a discharge flow path for discharging the exhaust gas that has passed through the turbine wheel,
- wherein the turbine housing includes
- a communication flow path wall that defines a communication flow path that allows the two scroll flow paths to communicate with each other, and
- a bypass flow path wall that defines a bypass flow path for guiding the exhaust gas flowing through the communication flow path to the discharge flow path while bypassing the turbine wheel,
- the communication flow path wall is formed with an outlet that guides the exhaust gas flowing through the communication flow path to the bypass flow path,
- the double scroll turbine further comprises a valve device, and
- the valve device includes
- a valve rod that extends to cross the communication flow path and that has an axis provided to pass through the outlet,
- a first opening/closing plate that is attached to the valve rod to extend along the axis and that is for opening/closing the communication flow path with rotation of the valve rod, and a second opening/closing plate that extends in a direction intersecting the axis, is attached to the valve rod on a side closer to the outlet than the first opening/closing plate, and is for opening/closing the bypass flow path with the rotation of the valve rod.
