Abstract:
A wastegate assembly (200) for a turbocharger (101) or the like is provided having a support plate (300), an actuator (275), a linkage (250) operably connected to the actuator (275), and a valve plate (225) operably connected to the linkage (250). The linkage (250) translates actuation of the actuator (275) to movement of the valve plate (225) thereby sealing or unsealing the bypass outlet (500). The actuator (275), linkage (250) and valve plate (225) can be pre-assembled to the support plate (300) prior to the support plate (300) being connected to the turbine housing (102). The actuator (275), linkage (250) and valve plate (225) can be calibrated prior to the wastegate assembly (200) being connected to the turbine housing (102). The bypass outlet (500) can be machined via access provided by the wastegate port (400).
