An engine includes fuel system components provided on a cylinder head, a purge control valve that controls an amount of evaporated fuel purged to a portion of an intake passage on a downstream side of a throttle valve, and intake pipes that form the portion of the intake passage on the downstream side of the throttle valve and extend in a cylinder array direction, in which the purge control valve is disposed in front of the intake pipes and the fuel system components are disposed on an opposite side of the purge control valve across the intake pipes in vehicle front view or vehicle side view.

An air delivery system for an engine includes a first air filter, a second air filter, a first conduit, a second conduit, an air box, and a third conduit. Each of the first air filter and the first conduit, and each of the second air filter and the second conduit are disposed at a first angle with respect to a lateral axis of the air box. The first angle is adapted to limit restriction to flow of intake air from each of the first air filter and the second air filter toward the air box. The third conduit is disposed at a second angle with respect to a longitudinal axis of the air box. The second angle is adapted to limit restriction to the flow of intake air from the air box to the engine.

An intake passage includes: a main intake passage provided with a throttle valve and extending from one side toward the other side along a cylinder bank; and a bypass passage provided with an EGR valve and connected to a part of the main intake passage located toward the other side with respect to the throttle valve. The bypass passage extends from a branch of the main intake passage toward the one side and then turns back and extends toward the other side. The EGR valve is located in a part of the bypass passage extending toward the other side and overlapping with a part extending from the branch to the one side.

Disclosed is an engine which comprises: an engine body comprising a cylinder head and a cylinder block; an inlet duct attached to the engine body; and a fuel system component disposed between the engine body and the inlet duct, wherein the inlet duct is disposed on a vehicle forward side of the engine body when mounted to a vehicle, and wherein the inlet duct has: a fuel system component-corresponding portion located in a zone overlapping the fuel system component when viewed from the vehicle forward side, and a region located adjacent to the fuel system component-corresponding portion and having a lower rigidity than the fuel system component-corresponding portion.

This multi-cylinder engine intake structure is provided with a fresh air distribution chamber 20 into which a plurality of fresh air distribution openings 25 communicating with the individual intake ports 12 are opened, and a gas collection chamber 30. The gas collection chamber 30 includes a communication region 30B into which a first communication opening 7a communicating with the fresh air distribution chamber 20 is opened, a first mixture region 30A into which an air inlet 31a and an EGR gas inlet 32a are opened and which is positioned upstream of the communication region 30B in a flow direction of a mixture gas M of air A and EGR gas R, and a second mixture region 30C positioned downstream of the communication region 30B in the flow direction of the mixture gas M.

An engine includes: a throttle body that is joined to an intake port and that makes a butterfly valve within an intake path actuate based on driving force of an electric actuator so as to adjust an opening degree of the intake path; a receptor that extends from the throttle body to a direction distant from the throttle body above a crankcase and that receives the electric actuator therein; and a supporting piece that extends from the receptor to the direction distant from the throttle body and that is supported on the crankcase. Accordingly, in the engine, it is possible to alleviate the influence of vehicle vibrations on the throttle body and actuator by enhancing the rigidity with which to support the throttle body and actuator in a simple structure.

A vehicle including a powertrain assembly supported by the frame and an air intake assembly operably coupled to the powertrain assembly. The air intake assembly includes at least one inlet configured to direct air to different portions of an intake housing and filter positioned therein. The filter contains multiple sealing surfaces and a central air outlet.

An air intake apparatus includes an air intake apparatus body including an intake passage and a detection bore, a sensor holding portion holding a sensor, a pipe member constituted by an elastic member and including a first end and a second end, the first end being connected to the detection bore and the second end being connected to the sensor holding portion, the sensor holding portion including a fitting portion which includes an inner peripheral portion contactable with an outer peripheral portion of the second end, the sensor and the pipe member being fixed to the sensor holding portion by a contact of the outer peripheral portion of the second end with the inner peripheral portion of the fitting portion in a state where an insertion portion of the sensor is inserted to be positioned within the second end of the pipe member to widen the second end.

An intake structure of an engine includes an intake manifold as an engine side-part intake member that is provided on an intake side-surface of a cylinder head and connected to an intake system, which includes a first air cleaner as an engine upper-part intake member on an upper-part of the engine body; an intake opening member including an air inlet, an intake air passage guiding air sucked by the member through the first air cleaner to the intake manifold; a resonator as one of an engine upper-surface intake members provided on an upper surface of the engine body and nearer an exhaust system than and adjacent to the first air cleaner; and an intake manifold connected to the side-surface as an engine side-part intake member.

Intake manifold-cylinder head connectors and methods of assembling the same are disclosed. A distal jumper tube includes a distal jumper tube conduit with an upstream end having a first exterior engagement feature and a downstream end. A proximal jumper tube includes a proximal jumper tube conduit with an upstream end and a downstream end having a second exterior engagement feature. A middle jumper tube includes a middle jumper tube conduit with an upstream end having a third exterior engagement feature, and a downstream end having a fourth engagement feature. The first exterior engagement feature is removably coupled to the fourth exterior engagement feature, and the second exterior engagement feature is removably engaged to the third exterior engagement feature. The proximal jumper tube is in fluid receiving communication with an intake manifold conduit, and the distal jumper tube is in fluid providing communication with a cylinder head aperture.
