A silencing device includes an intake air pipe, a silencer, and a heater. The intake air pipe communicates with a supercharging device configured to supercharge intake air to be sucked into an engine. The intake air pipe is configured to introduce the intake air into the supercharging device. The silencer is disposed in the intake air pipe, and configured to silence air flow noise. The heater is disposed in the intake air pipe, and configured to heat the intake air introduced through the intake air pipe.

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.

Silencer device and assemblies for connection to engines are disclosed. Exemplary silencer devices for connection to an air compressor inlet tube may include at least a first quarter wave silencer and a second quarter wave silencer, and a tube assembly comprising a first landing and a second landing, wherein the first quarter wave silencer extends from the first landing and the second quarter wave silencer extends from the second landing.

Noise attenuation units are disclosed that are connectable in a system as part of a fluid flow path. Such units include a housing defining an internal cavity and having a first port and a second port each connectable to a fluid flow path and in fluid communication with one another through the internal cavity, and a noise attenuating member seated in the internal cavity of the housing within the flow of the fluid communication between the first port and the second port. The noise attenuating member enables the fluid communication between the first port and the second port to flow through the noise attenuating member.

Check valve units having one or more sound attenuating members are disclosed. A check valve unit includes a housing defining an inlet port, an outlet port, and a chamber in fluid communication therewith thereby defining a flow path from the inlet port through the chamber to the outlet port. The chamber includes first and second valve seats and has a sealing member disposed therein that is moveable from a position seated on the first valve seat to a position seated on the second valve seat. A sound attenuating member is disposed in the flow path downstream of the chamber, within the chamber, or both. In another embodiment, the check valve unit includes a Venturi portion in fluid communication with the chamber. The Venturi portion has a fluid junction with the flow path downstream of the chamber or forms the discharge section of the Venturi portion thereby defining the outlet port.

An air filter housing includes an inner housing space adapted to receive an air filter element. The air filter housing includes a first end and a second end located axially opposite the first end in relation to the inner housing space, and an outlet channel path extending from the inner housing space and out from the second end, the outlet channel path having a length X m, the length X m being adapted to stabilize a noise having a wavelength of Y m travelling through the outlet channel path towards the inner housing space, wherein the length X m is related to the wavelength Y m according to the following relationship: Y/16<X<Y/8.
