There is provided an air cleaner configured to be disposed inside a vehicle body frame, the air cleaner including: an air cleaner case in which an intake chamber is formed; an air filter disposed in the intake chamber; an inlet tube configured to take in air to the intake chamber; and an outlet tube configured to send out the air from the intake chamber. The inlet tube extends in a front-rear direction. The inlet tube has a bottom wall curved downward in a side view to form a concave curved portion below a discharge port of the inlet tube. The concave curved portion is formed with a drain hole.

Achieved are reduction of noise which is caused by air intake sound of a pre-cleaner, improvement of rear viewability and rear visibility of an operator, and extension of a maintenance interval of the pre-cleaner. A wheel loader (1) includes: an engine (18); a hood (23) that covers, in an openable and closable manner, a space in which the engine (18) is contained and that has an air intake opening (23a) through which air is taken into the space; an air cleaner (33) that is contained in the space and that is connected to the engine (18) via a first air intake pipe (34); and a pre-cleaner (31) that is contained in the space and that is connected to the air cleaner (33) via a second air intake pipe (32).

An intake assembly for an internal-combustion engine includes an intake duct for each cylinder, which communicates with an airbox that includes a filtering element. Each intake duct communicates with the airbox by a respective throttle body. A monitoring channel connects the intake ducts together and is configured for perturbing in a negligible way the dynamics of the fluid inside the intake ducts. Associated to said monitoring duct are sensors for monitoring the pressure inside the monitoring duct and designed to send signals indicating the value of pressure of the fluid taken in by the engine to an electronic control unit.

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 positioned adjacent the front of the engine and a cool half opposite the hot half, and an electric starter system positioned within the blower housing. The electric starting system includes a starter mount assembly coupled to the blower housing, an electric starter motor retained by the starter mount assembly and positioned in the cool half, and a battery mounted to the blower housing and positioned in the cool half. The battery is electrically coupled to the electric starter motor.

Air induction systems are for an internal combustion engine. The air induction systems comprise an air intake plenum that conducts intake airflow to an air cleaner for cleaning prior to combustion in the internal combustion engine. The air intake plenum is movable with respect to the air cleaner between an open position separated from the air cleaner and a closed position connected to the air cleaner. A bellows connects the air intake plenum to the air cleaner when the air intake plenum is in the closed position. The bellows has an upstream first end that seals with the air intake plenum and a downstream second end that seals with the air cleaner.

A two-wheeled vehicle includes a frame having a front frame portion, a mid-frame portion, and a rear frame portion. The mid-frame portion is coupled to the rear frame portion and the front frame portion. The vehicle further includes a plurality of ground-engaging members for supporting the frame. The front frame portion is removably coupled to the mid-frame portion with a plurality of frame members extending between the front frame portion and the mid-frame portion.

A cover covering an engine and an intake duct for introducing fresh air outside an engine room into a combustion chamber of the engine are provided in the engine room. The cover includes a top face cover portion covering the engine from above, and a side face cover portion covering the engine from the lateral side. The intake duct is disposed so as to be continuous to a side edge of the side face cover portion such that the intake duct covers the engine from the lateral side together with the side face cover portion.

A vehicle including an air intake system for an engine component includes a vehicle frame including one or more frame components, at least one of the one or more frame components includes an engine air passage and at least one intake port in communication with the engine air passage. At least one duct port of the frame component is in communication with the engine air passage. An engine component is coupled with the vehicle frame, and an intake duct extends from the at least one duct port to the engine component.

A bulldozer according to the present application includes a main frame, and an engine, a hood and an exhaust after-treatment device are provided on the main frame, an air inlet of the exhaust after-treatment device is in communication with an air outlet of a turbine of the engine via a pipeline, and the exhaust after-treatment device is fixed to the hood. In the bulldozer, vibration generated by the engine is transmitted to the main frame through an engine supporting frame or a damping device, and then transmitted from the main frame to the hood, the transmission path of the vibration is long, thus the vibration damping becomes complicated and has a high damping value, and the vibration transmitted to the air cleaner is really small.

In an air cleaner for a vehicle, a connection part of a first intake duct to a cleaner case is disposed in a front half portion of one of left and right half portions of the cleaner case, the first intake duct including a first air inlet port opening forward. A connection part of a second intake duct to the cleaner case is disposed in a rear half portion of an other of the left and right half portions, the second intake duct including a second air inlet port opening rearward. The first intake duct is formed to include a first air outlet port opening rearward inside an unpurified chamber and curve in an up-down direction in a side view, and the second intake duct is formed to include a second air outlet port opening forward inside the unpurified chamber and curve in a right-left direction in a plan view.
