ABSTRACT:
A centrifugal supercharger system for an internal combustion is directly driven by the associated engine and includes a belt driven drive pulley and bracket for locating an idler pulley for tensioning the belt. A plurality of bosses on the housing plus arcuate slots on the bracket provide for flexibility in locating the idler pulley. The drive pulley drives a gear which engages a driven gear on a separate shaft carrying the compressor wheel which is driven at a multiple of engine speed within a volute. The compressor wheel is recessed into an internal wall of the housing to provide smooth flow of air from the compressor wheel into the volute. Another group of bosses on said housing cooperate with an engine mounted bracket to provide flexibility in mounting the supercharger on various engines.
