A motor vehicle having a vehicle body, an engine compartment (10) housing an engine (12) and a bonnet seal arrangement (30, 34). The bonnet seal arrangement defines an opening (35) and is configured to deflect ram air received at the front of the motor vehicle (2) in use past the opening (35) to define a first air flow path, and draw air from the first air flow path through the opening (35) to define a second air flow path for supplying air to the intake duct orifice (42), the second air flow path being angled in a horizontal plane to the first air flow path.

A vehicle has an upper hood duct with an air intake adjoining a hood air intake structure. A lower hood duct is connected to the upper hood duct. 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 extraction device is provided for a motor vehicle, in particular for a motor bike or for a motor vehicle similar to a motor bike. The extraction device includes at least one duct-like air-guide which has at least one opening which is arranged in or at an exhaust-air region of a ventilated vehicle component of the motor vehicle, such as engine, gearbox or the like, and which is extended between the used-air region of the vehicle component and a rear wheel of the motor vehicle, and at least one suction apparatus which is connectable or is connected to the air-guide and in which a negative pressure can be produced in order to suck air out of the exhaust-air region via the at least one air-guide.

A heating channel for a front wall of a dump body comprises an exhaust inlet provided on the front wall; an exhaust outlet provided on the front wall; and a channel body running continuously from the exhaust inlet to the exhaust outlet. The channel body can have at least one horizontally extending portion and at least one vertically extending portion in a front view of the front wall. The exhaust inlet can be configured to receive exhaust gas output from an internal combustion engine, and the exhaust outlet can be configured to output the received exhaust gas to outside the heating channel.

An apparatus and a method are provided for a multiple inlet air box to communicate an airstream through an air filter to an air intake duct of an internal combustion engine of a vehicle. The multiple inlet air box is comprised of a housing that supports the air filter within an interior of the housing. A mount portion within the housing fixedly receives a base of the air filter. Multiple air inlets couple with corresponding air inlet ports of the vehicle to direct the airstream into the multiple inlet air box. A duct directs the airstream from the multiple air inlets to the interior of the housing. A conduit communicates the airstream from an interior of the air filter to the air intake duct of the internal combustion engine.

An air intake structure for introducing an intake air into an engine includes: a first air intake passage fluidly connected with an air outlet; a second air intake passage branched off from the first air intake passage and having a passage length greater than that of the first air intake passage; and an open-close valve provided in the first air intake passage. The second air intake passage has a portion thereof bent to allow the flow of intake air in one direction reverse to that of the air flowing a different portion thereof. The first air intake passage, the second air intake passage and the open-close valve are provided within an air cleaner.
