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.
Straddle-type vehicle
There is provided a straddle-type vehicle, including: a pair of seat frames; a seat; an air cleaner; a battery; and a bracket. A rear portion of the air cleaner and the battery are positioned below the seat. The battery is disposed above the rear portion of the air cleaner. The bracket extends in a left-right direction of the straddle-type vehicle and passes between the rear portion of the air cleaner and the battery. A left end side and a right end side of the bracket are connected to the pair of seat frames respectively. The rear portion of the air cleaner is suspended by the bracket. The battery is installed on the bracket.
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.
Mounting arrangement for engine exhaust aftertreatment system on crane carrier
A crane includes a carrier having a carrier deck with a recessed section, at least a first axle and a second axle, a superstructure mounted to the carrier, an engine, and an engine exhaust aftertreatment system fluidically connected to the engine and configured to receive exhaust gas from the engine. The engine exhaust aftertreatment system is mounted in the recessed section to be positioned at least partially below an upper surface of the carrier deck between the first axle and the second axle.
INTAKE NOISE REDUCTION STRUCTURE FOR VEHICLE
A bracket 10 has a U-shaped cross section in which a pair of facing plate portions 15 extend from both side edges of a bottom plate portion 12 so as to face each other, and is fixed to a vehicle body side for mounting a predetermined component. The bottom plate portion 12 and the pair of facing plate portions 15 partition a bracket inner space 16, and the bottom plate portion 12 is provided with a through hole 20 which makes the bracket inner space 16 communicate with an outside. A resonator 23 is fixed to the bracket 10 in a state where the resonator 23 is accommodated in the bracket inner space 16. A ventilation passage 29 makes the resonator 23 communicate with the intake duct 21 through the through hole 20.

OUTBOARD MOTOR AND VESSEL
An outboard motor includes an engine, a pressure charger, an intercooler, a bypass air passage, and an air bypass valve to open and close the bypass air passage. The engine includes a cylinder block and an air intake passage and an exhaust passage both of which are connected to the cylinder block. The pressure charger is located in the air intake passage. The intercooler is located in the air intake passage between the cylinder block and the pressure charger. A first end of the bypass air passage is connected to a region of the air intake passage upstream of the pressure charger. A second end of the bypass air passage is connected to a region of the air intake passage downstream of the pressure charger. The air bypass valve is directly attached to the intercooler.
Motor vehicle engine air intake system, an air filter enclosure assembly and vehicle engine air intake method
Vehicle Engine Air Intake System and Method (to be accompanied by FIGS. 1 and 3) In a motor vehicle (12), an air filter housing (14) is at least partially defined by a cross-member (28) forming part of a structural front end module of the vehicle body. The cross-member (28) defines a recess (44) for receiving an air filter (90) and at least one air inlet aperture opening into the recess. An air filter enclosure assembly is mounted to the cross-member over an open face of the recess. The air filter enclosure assembly may include an air filter enclosure (42) and an air filter (90).
