Abstract
A turbine of a turbocharger includes a floating insert which defines a nozzle for passing a fluid and which is supported axially slidable with respect to a housing by a sliding support. Furthermore, the turbine comprises a sealing member for preventing a flow of fluid between the floating insert and the housing. The sealing member is axially expandable and has a fixed end attached to the turbine housing and an opposite movable end attached to the floating insert.
