Abstract:
1. A turbocharger comprising: a turbine housing; a turbine housing inlet defined by the turbine housing; a turbine wheel mounted for rotation within a turbine chamber defined by the turbine housing; the turbine chamber having a turbine inlet defined by the housing; a rotary valve comprising a valve rotor which rotates about a valve axis within a valve chamber defined by the turbine housing at a junction of the turbine housing inlet and the turbine inlet within a turbine housing which also defines a second turbine chamber; wherein the valve chamber has at least an inlet port communicating with the turbine housing inlet, a first outlet port communicating with the turbine inlet, and a second outlet port; wherein the valve rotor is rotatable about the valve axis to selectively permit or block exhaust gas flow through the first outlet port; and wherein the valve rotor is rotatable about the valve axis to selectively permit or block exhaust gas flow through the second outlet port.
