Various embodiments relate to a filter housing seal member. The filter housing seal member includes a first member end and a second member end disposed axially away from the first member end. A first member portion is disposed between the first member end and the second member end. A second member portion is disposed between the first member end and the second member end. The second member portion is disposed radially away from the first member portion. An undercut is positioned along the first member portion, the undercut configured to receive and form a seal with a filter seal member of a filter element.

Vehicle Engine Air Intake System and Method (to be accompanied by FIGS. 1 and 3) In a motor vehicle (12), an air filter housing (14) is at least partially defined by a cross-member (28) forming part of a structural front end module of the vehicle body. The cross-member (28) defines a recess (44) for receiving an air filter (90) and at least one air inlet aperture opening into the recess. An air filter enclosure assembly is mounted to the cross-member over an open face of the recess. The air filter enclosure assembly may include an air filter enclosure (42) and an air filter (90).

There is provided an air cleaner configured to be disposed behind an engine and inside a vehicle body frame. The air cleaner includes: an air cleaner case in which an intake chamber is formed; an air filter that divides the intake chamber into a dirty side and a clean side; an inlet tube configured to take in air from a vehicle rear side to the dirty side; and an outlet tube configured to send air from the clean side to the engine. The inlet tube and the outlet tube are attached to an upper side of the air cleaner case, and an expansion portion is formed on a lower side of the air cleaner case, the expansion portion being formed by expanding the clean side further downward than the dirty side.

A filter assembly includes a support fame, a filter media, and a conditioning device. The filter media is coupled to the support frame. The filter media has a dirty side that receives an air stream and a clean side that outputs the air stream after having been filtered by the filter media. The conditioning device is coupled to the support frame. The conditioning device is positioned downstream of the clean side of the filter media with respect to the air stream and directly contacts the clean side of the filter media.

The invention relates to an air filter housing for use in an air cleaning arrangement for cleaning air to be provided to an air inlet of an internal combustion engine. The air filter housing comprises: a filter housing inlet for receiving air; and a filter housing outlet for providing filtered air to the air inlet of the internal combustion engine when an air filter is arranged inside the air filter housing between the filter housing inlet and the filter housing outlet. The air filter housing further comprises a closing arrangement controllable to be in each of a first state in which the filter housing outlet is closed by the closing arrangement, and a second state in which the filter housing outlet is open. The closing arrangement may comprise an iris shutter.

A vehicle air induction assembly includes an air guide, an air duct and a bracket member. The air duct is configured to supply air to an engine air filter. The air guide has an opening therein and is configured to be connected to a vehicle fascia. The air duct is configured to be connected to the air guide such that air flowing through the opening flows into the air duct. The bracket member is connected to the air guide. The bracket member has a first side wall, a second side wall and a lower wall connecting the first and second side walls. The bracket member and the air duct are disposed on opposite sides of the air guide opening. An air inlet is defined by the air guide and the bracket member.

An intake system of a vehicle is configured so that air moves along a ‘U’-shaped movement path from an entrance of an intake duct portion into which outside air is introduced to a position where a filter is mounted, and is configured so that the intake duct portion, an air cleaner body portion, and an external resonator are formed integrally with each other.

This air cleaner device is capable of preventing liquid, in the air that has been sucked in, from escaping to the downstream side of a filter element. The air cleaner device is provided in an intake passage of an internal combustion engine, and comprises: the filter element for removing foreign matter contained in the air that has been sucked into the intake passage; and a collision/separation part which is disposed on a surface of the filter element such that the liquid is separated from the air as a result of the air colliding with the collision/separation part, on the upstream side of the filter element in the suction direction of the air.
