A variable intake system includes a pair of surge tanks connected in a communicating manner to a main intake pipe through a low speed communication pipe and a high speed communication pipe, a middle speed communication pipe for connecting the pair of surge tanks, and a noise reducing member integrally provided at the middle speed communication pipe to reduce noise.

A vehicle air filter housing having a broad band tuner. The housing is formed from a tray having a divider wall defining an unfiltered air induction chamber and a tuner chamber. A cover securable to the tray includes a second divider wall defining a filtered air chamber and a flow path chamber. A filter member provides a seal between the tray and the cover, and holds an air filter between the unfiltered air chamber and the filtered air chamber. A plate securable to the flow path chamber has a plurality of perforations. Air inducted through the inlet passes through the air filter and flows through the flow path chamber at a velocity whereby the filtered air passes over the perforated plate and predetermined frequencies pass through the plate perforations for attenuation in the tuner chamber. The tuners in the tuner chamber may be sized to attenuate different frequencies.

An acoustic damper includes a housing with an inlet aperture and an outlet aperture. The housing is configured to receive a gas flow that enters via the inlet aperture and that exits via the outlet aperture. The acoustic damper also includes a barrier member that is disposed within the housing. The barrier member is configured to be disposed within the gas flow and to dampen acoustic energy that propagates in an upstream direction generally from the outlet aperture toward the inlet aperture. The barrier member includes an outer structure that defines an interior volume of the barrier member. The interior volume is oriented toward the outlet aperture.

The invention relates to an acoustic attenuation device (1) for a turbocharger, or for a supercharger, arranged along an air intake line of a vehicle. The attenuation device (1) comprises a gas supply pipe (2) having a peripheral wall (21) and a diameter (d2), the pipe (2) comprising at least one annular chamber (3) defined by a diameter (d3) greater than the diameter (d2) of the pipe (2), the or each annular chamber (3) being sealed by a wall (5) comprising porous material that is positioned in the extension of the peripheral wall (21) of the pipe (2), according to a diameter (d5) substantially equal to the diameter of the pipe (2), in order to allow air to flow between the pipe (2) and the or each peripheral chamber (3).

An intake structure for an internal combustion engine of a vehicle comprises an intake passage member (25) internally defining an intake passage (40) having an air inlet (40A) and an air outlet (40B); and a PCU (14) provided in an engine room of the vehicle and provided with a cooling device for cooling the PCU (14).

A filter element has a holder arrangement with a filter bellows and a partition element arranged at different regions of the holder arrangement. The partition element extends between first and second chambers of a resonator structure when installed in a filter system and has a passage acoustically coupling the two chambers. Such a filter element is exchangeably arranged in the filter housing of the filter system which has a main inlet, a main outlet, and an auxiliary connection outlet. The filter bellows is arranged in flow direction between the main inlet and the two outlets. The partition element is arranged between the two chambers of the resonator structure for noise damping of the auxiliary connection outlet. Its passage acoustically couples the two chambers. The partition element projects into an auxiliary connection resonator region of the filter housing and has end regions contacting walls delimiting the auxiliary connection resonator region.
