Abstract

A burst protection device for a gas radial turbo engine configured annularly around a central axis in the circumferential direction and like a box in a cross sectional direction, to grip a turbine housing in the area of the turbine wheel. The burst protection device includes at least one axial wall section extending in an axial direction and at least one radial wall section extending in the radial direction are indirectly interconnected via an intermediate wall section lying in between. A partial area of the intermediate wall section in the axial direction runs inclined and/or curved relative to the orientation of the axial wall section and radial wall section.
