An engine device including an exhaust gas purification device above cylinder head through a support pedestal. The support pedestal has a flat portion on which the exhaust gas purification device is mounted, and a plurality of legs which protrude downward from the flat portion and are fixed to the cylinder head. The flat portion and the leg portions are formed integrally. Portions between the legs are each formed in an arch-shape.

An engine includes a block defining cylinders, a charge-air cooler, and an intake manifold configured to receive air from the charge-air cooler and convey the air to the cylinders. The intake manifold includes an inlet connected in fluid communication with the charge-air cooler, a plurality of runners each associated with one of the cylinders, and a wedge disposed in an air path between the inlet and the runners with a leading edge of the wedge facing the inlet. The wedge is configured to deflect water, condensed in the charge-air cooler, to distribute the water among the runners.

An engine system includes an intake manifold and a charge-air cooler disposed upstream of the intake manifold. The charge-air cooler includes a housing defining an enclosure having a water reservoir, a heat exchanger disposed within the enclosure, and a valve disposed within the enclosure. The valve has a flap that is movable between an open position in which airflow is permitted across the water reservoir and a closed position is which airflow across the water reservoir is inhibited.

Interference between an intake manifold and a fuel pipe during a vehicle front collision is prevented in an engine which is longitudinally mounted in an engine room. A vehicle component is arranged on the front side of an intake manifold, and a fuel pipe is arranged on the rear side of the intake manifold. The intake manifold includes a mounting portion on the intake-air downstream end side of a plurality of independent intake pipe portions and connects each of the plurality of independent intake pipe portions to a portion of the engine on one side of the engine in the vehicle width direction. The mounting portion has a front-side mounting portion relatively positioned on the front side and a rear-side mounting portion relatively positioned on the rear side, and the rear-side mounting portion has a higher rigidity than the front-side mounting portion.

Removal and breakage of fuel piping during a vehicle front collision is prevented for an engine mounted longitudinally in an engine compartment. Embodiments include a side structure of the engine having an alternator in front of an intake manifold and fuel piping behind the intake manifold so as to extend in the vertical direction. The intake manifold includes a plurality of independent intake pipe portions each having one end portion connected to one side of the engine in a vehicle width direction, and a surge tank portion to which the other end portions of the independent intake pipe portions are connected. As seen from the rear side, a portion of the fuel piping closer to the surge tank portion is located closer to the one side of the engine in the vehicle width direction than the surge tank portion.
