Title:

REDUCTION OF TURBOCHARGER CORE UNBALANCE WITH BALANCE WASHER

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/111133

Kind Code:

A3

Abstract:

Turbochargers operate at extremely high speed, so balance of the rotating core is of the utmost importance to turbocharger life. A special balancing washer is added to the clamping region between the compressor nut and the nose of the compressor wheel to aid in keeping the wheel, nut, and stub-shaft on the turbocharger axis and to thereby reduce the degree of core unbalance.
