The intake noise reduction device is capable of suppressing hindrance to the airflow caused by deformation of a flow-regulating net portion and suppressing a reduction in the airflow amount. A linear portion having a mesh shape constituting a flow-regulating net portion 120 includes a circumferential linear portion 122 that extends circumferentially and, an radial width t1 in the upstream side, with respect to the airflow direction, of the circumferential linear portion 122 is larger than a radial width t2 in the downstream side thereof, and a radially outer surface 122A is constituted by a tapered surface that tapers toward the downstream side.

An intake sound introducing apparatus has, for example, a branch pipe, a sound creator, a communication pipe, and a resonator. The branch pipe branches from an intake pipe of the engine. The sound creator includes a vibrator that vibrates with the intake pulsation of the intake sound propagating within the branch pipe. The communication pipe provides communication between the inside of a casing of the sound creator and the inside of the cabin. The resonator is provided in the communication pipe.

A high frequency attenuating device for an air flow induction system of a vehicle employing a thermoformed fibrous mat of any shape that fits robustly inside the duct. The dissipative nature of the fibrous mat helps in achieving broadband attenuation in the high frequency regime. The ability to manufacture the fibrous mat into any shape helps with restriction, targets different attenuation bands, and makes it more feasible to manufacture. Hybrid solutions are possible when combined with low frequency perforated silencers or high frequency QWT arrays injection molded onto them.

An intake device is provided with a throttle body having a valve that can rotate relative to a body, and an intake pipe provided downstream of the throttle body and connected to an internal combustion engine, an intake passage of the intake pipe being provided with a flow adjustment part that guides the air supplied from the throttle body in the direction in which the intake passage extends, and the flow adjustment part being provided to an upstream end that is on the throttle body-side in the intake passage and also being provided so as to connect to an inner peripheral surface of the intake passage at a position of non-contact when the valve is fully open.

An air intake device includes a bypass passage which makes a portion of an air intake passage on an upstream side of a compressor and a portion of the air intake passage on a downstream side of the compressor communicate with each other, and a bypass passage open/close valve which opens or closes the bypass passage. The air intake passage includes a first passage extending toward an upstream side from the compressor along a first direction, a bent portion bent from an upstream end of the first passage in a second direction, and a second passage extending from an upstream end of the bent portion along the second direction. The second passage has a vertically elongated cross-sectional shape. A vibration suppressing part for suppressing vibrations of the second passage is disposed in at least one of the second passage and the bent portion.

A method for producing a damper for an air line of an internal combustion engine includes the following steps: providing a temperature-controlled inner part having passages; producing a tubular preform of an outer jacket from a thermoplastic melt; and attaching the temperature-controlled inner part to a blowing mandrel of a blow mold, which is open. The blowing mandrel has outlet openings and the passages are positioned over the outlet openings. The method further includes bringing the temperature-controlled preform over the inner part and closing the blow mold such that the preform is blown against the walls of the blow mold, whereby an outer jacket is obtained. Simultaneously, local connections between the inner part and the outer jacket are obtained by pressing the preform and the inner part against each other in some regions. Finally, the blow mold is opened and the damper is removed.

An article of manufacture for providing an automobile turbocharging fitting is disclosed. A turbo fitting is a funnel shaped device that is attached to an outgoing airflow port of an air filter intake enclosure and secured into an air flow line running to the input to a throttle body of an internal combustion engine. The inner diameter of the turbo fitting is reduced from its width at the air filter enclosure to its exit diameter in the air flow line. Air directional devices, which may be raised tabs or grooves, running the length of the inner surface of the turbo fitting. These air directional devices are oriented in a clockwise direction when viewed into the turbo fitting from the air filter enclosure end.

An air intake system for a marine engine has a throttle body and a throttle plate that is rotatably supported within the throttle body. The throttle plate is rotatable to regulate air flow through the throttle body from a first region on a first side of the throttle plate to a second region on a second side of the throttle plate. An air conduit has an air conduit inlet and an air conduit outlet. A noise cancelling device comprises a pass-though chamber. The pass-through chamber has a chamber inlet that receives the air flow from the air conduit, a chamber outlet that discharges the air flow to the idle air control valve, and a pass-through interior between the chamber inlet and chamber outlet. The pass-though chamber is configured to cancel noise emanating from the idle air control valve.
