Marine engine intake manifolds having noise attenuation
An intake manifold is for a marine engine having a throttle for controlling flow of intake air to the marine engine. The intake manifold has a plenum for receiving the intake air from the throttle, a plurality of intake runners which extends from upstream ends for receiving the intake air from the plenum to downstream ends for discharging the intake air to the marine engine, and a quarter wave resonator extending from an open end coupled to the plenum to a closed end, the quarter wave resonator having a tuned elongated cavity configured to attenuate sound emanating from the marine engine via the plurality of intake runners.
VENTILATION COMPONENT
A ventilation component includes a circumferential wall. At least a part of the circumferential wall is formed by the wall portion, which includes the inner layer and the outer layer. The inner layer contains fibers and has permeability, and the outer layer is provided on the radially outer side of the inner layer and has elasticity. The wall portion forms a vibration system including the inner layer as a mass portion and the outer layer as a spring portion. The vibration system has a partially varying natural frequency.

AIR INTAKE SYSTEM FOR A COMMERCIAL VEHICLE, IN PARTICULAR A TRUCK
An air intake system for a commercial vehicle is disclosed. The air intake system includes a hood with at least one frontal intake opening through which air to be guided to an engine of the commercial vehicle can flow and with at least one plenum configured to receive air flowing through the intake opening. The air intake system further includes at least one air pipe having at least one air duct with at least one inlet opening through which the air flowing through the frontal intake opening can flow, the air duct arranged upstream of and fluidically connected with the plenum so as to guide the air to and into the plenum. The air intake system additionally includes at least one air filter and at least one silencer plate arranged upstream of the air filter, the silencer plate having a plurality of through openings through which the air can flow.
Engine
An engine includes a combustion chamber, a cylinder head, an intake valve, a partition wall plate, and a tumble valve. The cylinder head includes an intake port that communicates with the combustion chamber. The intake valve includes a head configured to open and close an open end of the intake port. The partition wall plate partitions the intake port into first and second passages. The tumble valve is configured to open and close either one of the first passage and the second passage. A cross sectional shape of the partition wall plate is defined on a basis of a shape of a gap that is surrounded by a contour of the head and a contour of the open end, as viewed in a reference direction. The reference direction is a direction from a reference point in the intake port to a gap between the open end and the head.
Muffler and Filter System
A muffler for a filter system has a base body with an inlet opening. A fluid guiding rib is externally arranged on the base body so as to guide a fluid to be filtered by the filter system toward the inlet opening of the base body. The fluid guiding rib extends along a first flow direction, wherein the fluid to be filtered passes through the base body along the first flow direction. A filter system with a filter housing and a filter element removably received in the filter housing is provided with such a muffler. The muffler is attached to the filter housing.

INTAKE DEVICE FOR A COMPRESSOR
The invention relates to an intake device for a compressor. The intake device comprises a support structure having a plurality of struts which are arranged in the circumferential direction about an axis of the support structure and extend in the radial direction. Furthermore, the intake device comprises a plurality of first sound-damping elements which are arranged in the radial continuation of the plurality of struts. In addition, the intake device comprises a plurality of second sound-damping elements, each of which is arranged between adjacent first sound-damping elements. The invention furthermore relates to an exhaust-gas turbocharger having the intake device according to the invention, and an internal combustion engine having an exhaust-gas turbocharger of this kind.
Filter muffler for an exhaust gas turbocharger of an internal combustion engine
A filter muffler includes a front element, a rear element, and a plurality of damping elements arranged between the front element and the rear element, where the damping elements are arranged radially around a central axis of the filter muffler such that a flow channel is formed between adjacent damping elements, where respective outflow-side ends of the damping elements have a diffuser element which has an outflow-side tapering, and where an angle α between two opposite sides of the diffuser element is selected from a range of 1°≤α≤8°.
ENGINE INTAKE STRUCTURE FOR VEHICLES
An engine intake structure comprises an intake passage member 18 which defines an intake passage 36 for supplying air to an internal combustion engine 12, and which also defines a resonator chamber 40 in communication with the intake passage 36; and an in-vehicle device 14 located in an engine room 10 of a vehicle and having a preset reference temperature for temperature control, the intake passage member 18 being located above and adjacent to the in-vehicle device 14. The intake passage 36 extends above the in-vehicle device 14 so as to at least partially overlap the resonator chamber 40 as viewed in a vertical direction, thereby forming a two-layer structure, which makes the in-vehicle device 14 less affected by ambient temperature in the upper part of the engine room 10.
