Abstract
An arrangement structure of an intake duct includes an air inlet for introducing outside air from outside of a vehicle, a heat bump, an intake duct, and a first shielding member. The heat bump radiates heat to the introduced outside air introduced from the air inlet. The intake duct has an intake port for taking in a part of the introduced outside air. The intake duct is connected to an engine of the vehicle. The first shielding member defines a flow path of the introduced outside air and shielding the intake port from a flow of the introduced outside air. The first shielding member includes at least an upper wall for defining an upper part of the flow path from the air inlet to the heat bump and side walls for defining a side part of the flow path. The intake port is located above the upper wall.
Claims7
An arrangement structure of an intake duct comprising:
- an air inlet for introducing outside air from outside of a vehicle, a heat bump that has a substantially rectangular shape as viewed in a vehicle longitudinal direction and is for radiating heat to the introduced outside air introduced from the air inlet, an intake duct having an intake port for taking in a part of the introduced outside air, the intake duct being connected to an engine of the vehicle, and a first shielding member for defining a flow path of the introduced outside air and shielding the intake port from a flow of the introduced outside air, wherein the first shielding member includes at least an upper wall formed from a plate-like member that extends in the vehicle longitudinal direction and a vehicle width direction and is for defining an upper part of the flow path from the air inlet to the heat bump and side walls formed from a plate-like member that extends in the vehicle longitudinal direction and a vertical direction and is for defining a side part of the flow path, and wherein the intake port is located above the upper wall.
