Abstract
An intake manifold body member has an upper surface with a MAP senor port, an air intake port, and a depending perimeter wall that defines an interior chamber. A MAP sensor port permits a MAP sensor to be inserted by a first distance into the interior chamber defined by the body member. A Map sensor shielding member depends from the body member by a second distance that is greater than the first distance and shields the MAP sensor.
Claims20
An intake manifold comprising:
- a body member having an upper surface and a depending perimeter wall that defines an interior chamber;
- an air intake port extending through the upper surface and opening into the interior chamber;
- an EGR tube extending through the body member such that a portion of the EGR tube opens into the interior chamber;
- a MAP sensor extends through the body member and has a free end that extends into the interior chamber by a first distance;
- and,
- a shielding member depends from the body member by a second distance that is greater than the first distance to define a shield about the free end of the MAP sensor.

An intake manifold comprising:
- a lower body member having a generally planar configuration;
- an upper body member having an upper surface and a depending perimeter wall that connects to the lower body member and defines an interior chamber with the lower body member;
- an air intake port in the upper body member opens into the interior chamber;
- an EGR tube port in the upper body member opens into the interior chamber;
- a MAP sensor port in the upper body member is configured such that a MAP sensor inserted in MAP sensor port extends into the interior chamber by a first distance;
- and
- a shielding member depends from an interior surface of the upper body member by a distance larger than the first distance and defines a shielded area an inserted MAP sensor.
