VARIABLE GEOMETRY TURBINE ASSEMBLY

摘要

A variable geometry turbine assembly comprising an inlet passageway, extending radially inwards towards a turbine wheel, defined between a surface of a movable wall member and a facing wall and an actuation mechanism arranged to move the movable wall member axially and comprising a cam member provided with at least one formation and a carrier member axially coupled to at least one co-operating formation, wherein one of the at least one formation and the at least one co-operating formation is a radially extending formation, the at least one formation or the at least one co-operating formation extending in both the circumferential direction and the axial direction such that as the cam member is rotated relative to the carrier member, the at least one formation and the at least one co-operating formation engage such the movable wall member is moved in the axial direction.
