Abstract
An engine device including a cylinder head provided with a plurality of intake fluid passages for taking fresh air into a plurality of intake ports and a plurality of exhaust fluid passages for emitting an exhaust gas from a plurality of exhaust ports. An intake manifold which aggregates the plurality of intake fluid passages is formed integrally with one of left and right side portions of the cylinder head.
Claims20
An engine device comprising:
- a cylinder head including a plurality of intake fluid passages configured to receive fresh air and guide the fresh air into a plurality of intake ports and a plurality of exhaust fluid passages configured to communicate an exhaust gas from a plurality of exhaust ports;
- and
- wherein an intake manifold configured to aggregate the plurality of intake fluid passages is disposed integrally with one of left and right side portions of the cylinder head;
- an exhaust manifold in fluid communication with the exhaust fluid passages;
- an EGR device configured to circulate, as EGR gas, a portion of exhaust gas exhausted from the exhaust manifold to the intake manifold;
- and
- an EGR cooler configured to cool the EGR gas;
- and
- wherein:
- the cylinder head is configured such that the exhaust manifold is coupled to a second surface of the cylinder head, the second surface opposite to a first surface;
- the intake manifold is disposed on the first surface;
- the EGR cooler is coupled to a third surface of the cylinder head which is adjacent to the first and second surfaces, and coupling bases to which the EGR cooler is coupled are provided so as to protrude from the third surface of the cylinder head;
- and
- the coupling bases on the third surface are provided therein with EGR gas fluid passages and coolant passages.
