In an internal combustion engine with a motor brake, includes an exhaust gas turbocharger and a power turbine disposed in the exhaust gas discharge line from the turbocharger for the conversion of the energy remaining in the exhaust gas into usable energy, the exhaust gas line includes bypass openings with a bypass line for the exhaust gas to by-pass the power turbine, and the turbine of the turbocharger includes inlet passages for the admission of the exhaust gas to the exhaust gas turbine, a slide-control member is supported by the exhaust gas line so as to be movable between an end position in which the turbine inlet openings are uncovered and an opposite end position in which the turbine inlet openings are covered and the by-pass openings of the power turbine are uncovered so that the exhaust gas can by-pass the power turbine.

What is claimed is: 1. An internal combustion engine (1) with an air intake duct (8) and an exhaust duct (7) and with a motor brake, including an exhaust gas turbocharger (2) having an exhaust gas turbine (4) disposed in said exhaust duct (7) and a compressor (5) disposed in said intake duct (8), s

What is claimed is: 1. An internal combustion engine (1) with an air intake duct (8) and an exhaust duct (7) and with a motor brake, including an exhaust gas turbocharger (2) having an exhaust gas turbine (4) disposed in said exhaust duct (7) and a compressor (5) disposed in said intake duct (8), said exhaust gas turbine (4) including a turbine wheel (17) and said compressor (5) including a compressor wheel, both being mounted on a common shaft such that said compressor (5) is driven by said exhaust gas turbine (4), said exhaust gas turbine (4 ) including a housing (16) enclosing the turbine wheel (17) and having at least one inlet flow passage (18, 19) with inlet openings (20, 21) disposed around the turbine wheel (17) and an exhaust gas passage (11) extending axially from said exhaust gas turbine (4) to a power turbine (3), which is coupled to said engine (1) for transferring power thereto, said exhaust gas passage (11) including bypass openings (26) and a bypass line (13) in communication with said by-pass openings ( 26) for conducting exhaust gas around said power turbine (3) and an axial slide member (27) supported by said exhaust passage (11) together with a control element (10), said axial slide member (27) and said control element (10) being movable jointly between two end positions, in one of which said axial slide member (27) covers and blocks said by-pass openings (26) and said inlet openings (20, 21) are uncovered by said control element (10) so as to reduce the backpressure of the exhaust gas turbine and in the other of which said control element extends over said inlet openings (20, 21) during engine power operation for partially closing the turbine inlet openings ( 20, 21) to increase the speed of the exhaust gas flowing onto the turbine wheel (17) thereby to increase the turbine and compressor speeds and the pressure of the combustion air supplied to the engine, but said bypass openings are uncovered so that the exhaust gas flow can bypass said power turbine (3). 2. The internal combustion engine according to claim 1, wherein said control element (10) includes an annular guide vane structure which covers said inlet openings (20, 21) when said control element (10) is in the other of said two end positions. 3. The internal combustion engine according to claim 1, wherein said control element (10) and said slide member (27) consist of a single component.
