Abstract
A turbine supercharger includes: a turbine; a turbine housing which houses the turbine; and a turbine bypass valve for controlling a flow rate of exhaust gas to be supplied to the turbine. The turbine housing includes, inside the turbine housing: a scroll flow passage for guiding the exhaust gas to the turbine; an outlet flow passage for discharging the exhaust gas supplied to the turbine to outside of the turbine housing; and a bypass flow passage bypassing the turbine and connecting the scroll flow passage and the outlet flow passage. The turbine bypass valve includes: a valve rod; a valve body having a flat plate shape and being configured to revolve about the valve rod; and a valve housing having a cylindrical shape and defining a part of the bypass flow passage inside the valve housing. The valve housing is fixed to an inner peripheral wall surface of the bypass flow passage, inside the turbine housing.
