An on-engine air cleaner is connected to the lower hood duct. An auxiliary air inlet is arranged in the lower hood duct. The auxiliary air inlet may have an auxiliary air inlet door connected to an auxiliary air inlet door adapter by way of a hinge. The auxiliary air inlet door adapter may be connected to an auxiliary air inlet door adapter base attached to the lower hood duct. An electric or pneumatic actuator may be connected to the auxiliary air inlet door by way of an actuator door connection, and to the auxiliary air inlet door adapter by way of an actuator adapter connection.

An intake structure of the present invention is applied to a multi-cylinder engine including an electrically controlled throttle integrally including a throttle valve configured to adjust an amount of air to be supplied to the engine and an electronic control unit configured to control the throttle valve. The engine intake structure includes: an air cleaner configured to purify the air; and an intake manifold configured to distribute the air purified by the air cleaner to an intake port of each cylinder of the multi-cylinder engine. The electrically controlled throttle is attached to the intake manifold such that the electronic control unit is separated outward in a radial direction of an engine rotation shaft.

A snow bike intake, snow bike conversion kit, and/or air intake pod snow bike conversion kit, having; a throttle body coupling; an elbow-shaped intake duct coupled to the throttle body, a pre-filter body cage coupled at a rear thereof to the duct and a textile cover fitting about the cage. The duct has an interior angle between 40 and 60 degrees. There are a plurality of flat (interior and exterior surface) sensor mounts disposed about and through the duct, including an octagonal ring of sensor mounts circumscribing the duct body. The cage has a flat front opposite the rear that has a larger diameter than a diameter of the rear. The duct has an aspect ratio of exterior angle length to diameter no greater than 3.5:1 and the duct and prefilter combined has an aspect ratio of exterior angle length to diameter no greater than 4.5:1.

A heat exchanger for cooling intake air with a coolant is provided with a shell and first and second front faces, wherein one of the front faces is an inlet and the other an outlet for intake air. The shell has at least one coupling element disposed along a circumferential line of the shell that is spaced apart from the first front face by a predetermined distance. The shell has a port as an inlet or outlet for the coolant. The port is arranged at a spacing from the first front face. The spacing is larger than the predetermined distance. The shell has an insertion section between first front face and circumferential line. The shell has an internal duct system connected to the port for guiding the coolant into the insertion section. The coupling element can fixedly couple with at least one corresponding coupling element of an air duct.

An intake device for an engine is provided which can inhibit excessive cooling of EGR gas. In the intake device including an intake passage, an EGR passage, and an EGR cooler, the intake passage is provided with a lateral-side intake passage portion provided on one side of an engine body in a vehicle width direction, the EGR passage is provided with a downstream-side EGR passage portion defining the EGR passage on a downstream side of the EGR cooler and provided on the one side of the engine body in the vehicle width direction, and the downstream-side EGR passage portion is disposed such that at least a portion thereof is positioned rearward of the lateral-side intake passage portion and overlaps with the lateral-side intake passage portion when seen from the front of a vehicle.

A motorcycle intake air guide for feeding an intake air volumetric flow to a motorcycle internal combustion engine includes an unfiltered-air channel, a filtered-air channel, and an air filter therebetween. An intake air guide valve provided in the unfiltered-air channel is configured to change a cross-section of the unfiltered-air channel cross-section. The unfiltered-air channel has a double-flow design at least in sections with a first unfiltered-air partial channel and a second unfiltered-air partial channel which are merged downstream of a steering head of a frame of the motorcycle in a collection region of the unfiltered-air channel. The intake air guide valve is arranged in the collection region, downstream of the first and second unfiltered-air partial channels.

An air intake system for a combustion engine includes an air intake duct in fluid communication with an engine intake manifold and a conduit component inserted into the air intake duct along a first assembly direction. The air intake system also includes a hydrocarbon (HC) trap secured to the conduit component within the air intake duct. The conduit component defines at least one retention feature to maintain a position of the HC trap such that removal of the HC trap from the air intake duct results in structural compromise of the at least one retention feature. The air intake duct is also configured to shield the at least one retention feature from user access to inhibit user removal of the HC trap.

A throttle-controlled intake system is disclosed that provides a driver of a vehicle with greater control over engine functions and vehicle performance. The throttle-controlled intake system includes a control module that is coupled with an aircharger air intake. The control module processes input signals from a throttle pedal of the vehicle and sends modified throttle position signals to a throttle body of the vehicle so as to increase throttle responsiveness of the vehicle. The throttle-controlled intake system further includes a wiring harness and a signal adjuster. The wiring harness electrically couples the control module with the throttle pedal and the throttle body. The control module sends signals directly to the throttle body of the engine, bypassing an electronic control unit of the vehicle. The signal adjuster includes a rheostat that enables manual adjustment of the throttle responsiveness of the vehicle.

A snorkel installation kit includes a fender pipe and a snorkel. The fender pipe has an air intake. The snorkel has a protrusion defining an outlet that is received by the air intake of the fender pipe. The fender pipe and the snorkel are separated by a space when installed to each other.

A vehicle air induction assembly includes an air guide, an air duct and a bracket member. The air guide is configured to be connected to a vehicle fascia. The air duct is configured to be connected to the air guide. The air duct is configured to supply air to an engine air filter. The bracket member is connected to the air guide. The bracket member has a front wall facing in a forward direction of a vehicle, a rear wall facing in a rearward direction of the vehicle, and an upper wall connecting the front wall and the rear wall. A first air inlet in fluid communication with the air duct is defined by a surface of the air guide and the front, rear and upper walls of the bracket member. The first air inlet faces in a lateral direction of the vehicle.
