Abstract

A centrifugal compressor includes: a compressor housing in which an intake passage is formed; a compressor impeller provided in the intake passage; an actuator that causes a rod to linearly move in a direction intersecting with a rotation axis direction of the compressor impeller; a connection member connected to the rod; a throttle member including a protruding portion; a connection shaft extending in the rotation axis direction and connecting the connection member and the throttle member; and a rotation shaft extending in a direction parallel to the connection shaft and serving as a rotation center of the throttle member.
