A utility vehicle includes: an engine which is a drive source; a catch tank configured to perform a gas-liquid separation of a blow-by gas generated in the engine; a first breather passage configured to deliver the blow-by gas, which is discharged from the engine, to the catch tank; a second breather passage configured to supply a gas component, which has been separated in the catch tank, to an air intake system of the engine; and a return passage configured to return a liquid component, which has been separated in the catch tank, to the engine. The catch tank is disposed above a cylinder head covering. A breather outlet port, with which the first breather passage is fluid connected, and an oil return port, with which the return passage is fluid connected, are formed in an upper surface of the cylinder head covering.

An electronic throttle valve apparatus including a suction pressure sensor provided on the upstream of a throttle valve to measure pressure of an intake air that flows into the throttle valve is provided. The electronic throttle valve apparatus includes a throttle housing having one side installed in an intake manifold of an engine. Within an inside of the throttle housing, a throttle valve is rotatably provided. The electronic throttle valve apparatus further includes an air tube fastened to the other side of the throttle housing and fastened to an intake flow line, and a suction pressure sensor provided in the air tube and configured to measure pressure of an intake air that flows through the intake flow line. Accordingly, the suction pressure sensor is provided in the air tube that is fastened to the throttle housing, and thus the pressure of the intake air that flows into the throttle valve is easily measured.

An intake manifold may include a manifold inlet connected with an intake line into which fresh air flows and a recirculation line into which exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) gas flows; a manifold pressure sensor for measuring pressure of fluid flowing through the manifold inlet; and a sensor housing fluidly communicating with the manifold inlet and including a mounting space in which the manifold pressure sensor is mounted.

A sensor arrangement of an internal combustion engine includes an intake duct including one or more curved parts bent or curved and connecting an intercooler and a throttle; and a pressure sensor provided on the intake duct and configured to detect a pressure in the intake duct. The pressure sensor includes a detector disposed close to an outside curved portion of a curved part.

A physical quantity measurement device measures a physical quantity of a fluid. The device includes a passage flow channel, a branch flow channel, a flow channel partition portion that separates the passage flow channel and the branch flow channel to have the branch flow channel branch off from the passage flow channel, and a physical quantity detector. The flow channel partition portion has a partition top portion as an upstream-side end that is not exposed through the inflow port.

A secondary air injection system may include an engine that includes a plurality of cylinders that generate a driving torque of a vehicle by combustion of a fuel; a main line connected to an exhaust manifold or an exhaust line which is connected to the plurality of cylinders; a recirculation line which is branched from the main line and then connected to an intake manifold; an air injection line which is branched from the main line and then connected to an intake line; and an electric supercharger which is provided in the intake line.

An internal combustion engine is provided with: an electric supercharger including an electric compressor; an EGR introduction port formed upstream of the electric compressor; a throttle valve A arranged upstream of the EGR introduction port; and a control device. A throttle valve B other than the throttle valve A is not arranged in the intake air passage. The control device is configured, in a non-supercharging region, to execute a first air flow rate adjustment processing that adjusts an intake air flow rate by adjusting the opening degree of the throttle valve A while driving the electric supercharger to cause a pressure ratio of the electric compressor to approach 1; and a second air flow rate adjustment processing that adjusts the intake air flow rate by adjusting the opening degree of the throttle valve A while not energizing the electric supercharger.

An active fuel vapor purge system includes: a turbocharger having a turbine and a compressor; a canister collecting fuel vapor; a purge pump pumping the collected fuel vapor; a main purge line connecting the canister and the purge pump; a first purge line branched from the main purge line and joined to an intake manifold at downstream of the compressor; a second purge line branched from the main purge line and jointed to an intake line at upstream of the compressor; purge control solenoid valves respectively disposed in the first purge line and the second purge line; a hydrocarbon sensor measuring an amount of hydrocarbon; a pressure sensor measuring an upstream pressure and a downstream pressure of the purge pump; and a controller controlling operation of the purge pump based on the amount of hydrocarbon and pressures at a front end and at a rear end of the purge pump.

An internal combustion engine includes a crankcase including a crankshaft and at least one cylinder coupled to the crankcase. The at least one cylinder has an intake port and defines an internal combustion chamber. The engine further includes a throttle body assembly with a throttle valve coupled to the intake port of the at least one cylinder and a throttle plate. Additionally, the engine includes a supplementary air inlet fluidly coupled to the intake port and spaced apart from the throttle valve. The supplementary air inlet is configured to receive a flow of air from a location downstream of the throttle plate when the throttle plate is in a fully closed position and the flow of air is directed into the combustion chamber through the intake port for combustion therein.

A vehicle gas processing device is configured to supply gas generated by a vehicle to an intake pipe of a combustion engine. The device may includes: a gas pipe configured to communicate a gas generation source to the intake pipe, the gas pipe having a flexible end at least at an intake pipe side of the gas pipe; a check valve disposed between the intake pipe and the gas pipe, and configured to allow the gas to flow from the gas pipe toward the intake pipe and prohibit the gas to flow from the intake pipe toward the gas pipe; and a determining unit configured to determine that the gas pipe is detached from the check valve. The check valve is fixed to the intake pipe, and the gas pipe is detachably attached to the check valve.
