Abstract
An exhaust gas turbocharger has a turbine with a turbine wheel. The turbine wheel is axially mounted in a turbine housing and has turbine blades, each with a leading edge for a flow of media. An adjustable guide grate with a plurality of stator vanes adjusts a flow cross-section relative to the leading edge of the turbine wheel. Each stator vane has a vane rear edge facing the turbine wheel. A plane is defined by a rotational axis of the turbine wheel and at least one point on the leading edge, wherein a projection of the leading edge onto the plane is axially inclined relative to the rotational axis of the turbine wheel at least in one region, and the stator vanes are arranged radially about the turbine wheel at least in the region.

12. An exhaust-gas turbocharger, comprising:
-
a turbine housing; a turbine with a turbine wheel axially mounted in said turbine housing and rotatable about an axis of rotation; said turbine wheel having turbine vanes each formed with an inlet edge for a medium flow; an adjustable guide grate disposed in said turbine housing, said adjustable guide grate having a multiplicity of guide vanes for a variable adjustment of a flow cross section with respect to said inlet edges of said turbine wheel; each of said guide vanes having a vane trailing edge, facing toward said turbine wheel, and a vane leading edge averted from said turbine wheel; wherein a plane is spanned by the axis of rotation of said turbine wheel and at least one point on said inlet edge, and wherein a projection of said inlet edge onto said plane is, at least in one region, axially inclined relative to the axis of rotation of said turbine wheel, and said guide vanes are, at least in said at least one region, arranged radially around said turbine wheel. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
