Abstract

A turbocharger including a sealing device for prevention of fluid leakage from high to low pressure sides through a radially extending annular gap formed between a shroud and a shroud-confronting portion which constitute the turbocharger is provided. The sealing device includes a frustoconical disc spring seal member arranged in a pressed manner in the gap between the shroud and the shroud-confronting portion. Accordingly, fluid leakage from high to low pressure sides through an annular gap formed between constructional members of a turbocharger and extending radially of a turbine shaft may be prevented.
