Description

  The present invention relates to a heat insulating cover for a supercharger attached to an internal combustion engine, particularly a supercharger mounted on a marine supercharger.

  A supercharger is provided to increase the output of the internal combustion engine and improve the combustion efficiency. The supercharger includes a turbine that is driven using the energy of exhaust gas, and a compressor that is provided coaxially with the turbine and supplies compressed air to the internal combustion engine.

  In the turbine, a turbine impeller is accommodated in a turbine housing, and the turbine impeller is rotated by exhaust gas flowing through the turbine housing. The exhaust gas that drives the supercharger is at high temperature and pressure, and the turbine housing is also hot. In a marine turbocharger or the like, the turbine housing is exposed, and if a combustible material, lubricating oil, or the like is in contact for a long time, there is a risk of ignition.

  For this reason, a heat insulating cover is attached to the turbine housing, and measures are taken so that the surface temperature becomes a predetermined temperature or less.

  In addition, the air compressed by the compressor wheel also becomes high temperature, and thus the surface of the compressor housing and the bearing housing that fastens the compressor housing becomes high temperature, and the same measures as those for the turbine housing may be required.

  In the conventional heat insulating cover of a supercharger, as shown in Patent Document 1, the heat insulating inner surface material, the heat insulating material such as glass wool, and the outer surface material having liquid-tightness are generally in contact with the turbine housing. The heat insulating performance of the heat insulating cover is determined by the thickness of the heat insulating material.

  Therefore, in the conventional heat insulating cover of the turbocharger, the thickness of the heat insulating material of the heat insulating cover of the supercharger is determined so that the surface temperature of the heat insulating cover corresponding to the high temperature portion of the turbine housing is equal to or lower than a predetermined temperature. Or the thickness of the heat insulating material corresponding to the high temperature part of the turbine housing of the heat insulating cover is increased.

  In any case, since the thickness of the heat insulating material is increased, the thickness of the heat insulating cover for the supercharger increases. If the thickness of the heat insulating cover is increased, the heat insulating cover is not flexible, and the workability of attaching and detaching to the turbine housing is deteriorated. Alternatively, there is a greater restriction when the turbocharger is installed, such as a space must be secured around the turbine housing in order to install the heat insulating cover. Moreover, since the thickness of the heat insulating cover is increased, there is a problem that the manufacturing cost is increased.

  The turbine housing 9 has an exhaust gas inlet 12 and an exhaust gas outlet 13. Exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine flows into the exhaust gas inlet 12, and the exhaust gas outlet 13 emits the exhaust gas by exhaust energy. The exhaust gas after rotating the turbine impeller 7 is exhausted.

  The compressor housing 11 has a suction port 14 and a discharge port 15, and the air sucked from the suction port 14 when the compressor wheel 8 is rotated by the turbine wheel 7 via the rotary shaft 2. The compressed air is supplied to the internal combustion engine from the discharge port 15.

  In the supercharger 1, high-temperature exhaust gas flowing from the exhaust gas inlet 12 flows through the turbine housing 9, and the turbine housing 9 is heated by the exhaust gas and becomes high temperature. Accordingly, a heat insulating cover 17 is attached to the turbine housing 9.

  The heat insulating cover 17 is provided with protrusions 18 having a required distribution as an air layer forming member over the entire inner surface or on the inner surface portion corresponding to the hot part of the turbine housing 9.
