An injector arrangement structure includes an air cleaner which is arranged at a rear side of an engine for a vehicle, a rear suspension which extends vertically at the rear side of the engine, and a first injector which is attached to the air cleaner. The air cleaner includes an outlet tube configuring a clean side of the air cleaner. The rear suspension and the outlet tube overlap each other in a side view. A partition wall dividing an intake passage vertically is provided inside the outlet tube. The first injector is attached from a lower side of the outlet tube so as to inject fuel toward the partition wall.

An engine including an engine block having a cylinder defining a front of the engine, a blower housing coupled to the engine block and defining a hot half and a cool half opposite the front half, a starter mount assembly coupled to the blower housing and positioned within the cool half, an electric starter motor retained by the starter mount assembly, and a battery mounted to the blower housing and positioned in the cool half. The battery is electrically coupled to the electric starter motor.

An air management assembly for a work machine, the air management assembly having a cooling orifice defined in a panel, a cooling fan generating a cooling airflow through the cooling orifice to a cooling package, at least one fixed screen positioned along an intake orifice, and a first baffle positioned at least partially between the cooling orifice and the intake orifice. Wherein, the first baffle directs the cooling airflow partially across the fixed screen to clear the fixed screen of debris.

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.

There is provided a straddle-type vehicle, including: a pair of seat frames; a seat; an air cleaner; a battery; and a bracket. A rear portion of the air cleaner and the battery are positioned below the seat. The battery is disposed above the rear portion of the air cleaner. The bracket extends in a left-right direction of the straddle-type vehicle and passes between the rear portion of the air cleaner and the battery. A left end side and a right end side of the bracket are connected to the pair of seat frames respectively. The rear portion of the air cleaner is suspended by the bracket. The battery is installed on the bracket.

A precleaner system for an air intake system. The precleaner system includes precleaners each having flow paths that induce a rotation to air flow and separate out particulate matter. The particulate matter is ejected from an outlet port in each of the flow paths and out of a dust ejector. The precleaned air is collected into a plenum from each of the precleaners. The precleaned air can flow from the plenum to a precleaner system outlet and the precleaned air can be received by an air intake system. A cover can be used to block air flow through one of the precleaners to tune the precleaner system to the desired airflow.

An engine assembly includes an engine, an intake assembly, and an air-oil separator. The engine defines a combustion chamber and a crankcase. The intake assembly includes an intake manifold wherein the intake manifold is in fluid communication with the combustion chamber. The air-oil separator defines an internal passageway having a separator volume and further defining an inlet and outlet in fluid communication with the separator volume. The inlet of the air-oil separator may be in fluid communication with the crankcase while the outlet of the air-oil separator may be in fluid communication with the intake manifold. The air-oil separator further includes a fine separator disposed across the internal passageway proximate to the inlet wherein the fine separator includes a curved backplate and a front plate.

Methods and systems are provided for an air intake apparatus. In one example, a system comprises an air filter box rotatably mounted to an intake manifold. The air filter box rotates about an axis angled to a direction of forward vehicle travel.

Internal combustion engine comprising—a first pair of cylinders which accommodate, according to a rectilinear reciprocating motion, relative first pistons operatively associated to a motor shaft rotating around a motor axis disposed in a transverse direction, perpendicular to a longitudinal running direction of an associable vehicle, —a suction system comprising a filter box which delimits a suction volume which houses at least a first front suction duct and at least a first rear suction duct, respectively disposed in an advanced and retracted position in relation to an air/suction mixture inlet direction, each suction duct channelling the air/suction mixture before entering in the respective cylinders, —wherein said first front and rear suction ducts are fixed and have respective mutually different lengths.
