Air-inlet assistor for a vehicle engine

An air-inlet assistor for a vehicle engine, comprising:

• a main body formed by a container having a cylindrical wall to define an internal cavity of said main body, said main body having a partition formed therein to divide said internal cavity into a working chamber and an inlet chamber, said partition having an aperture formed therethrough for providing fluid communication between said working chamber and said inlet chamber, said partition having a counter bore formed concentrically about said aperture on a side of said partition facing said working chamber, said working chamber having a plurality of guide bars extending from an internal wall surface disposed in radially spaced relationship and an outlet connection coupled to a vehicle engine for drawing air from said working chamber, said inlet chamber having an opening formed through a portion of said cylindrical wall;
• an O-ring disposed within said counter bore;
• an air cleaner disposed within said inlet chamber, said air cleaner having an inlet coupled in fluid communication with said inlet chamber opening;
• a first magnet having a plate-like contour with a pair of opposing circular end faces, said first magnet being disposed within said working chamber between said plurality of guide bars;
• and,
• a second magnet disposed within said working chamber between said plurality of guide bars in longitudinally spaced relationship with said first magnet, said second magnet having a first circular end face directed toward a respective end face of said first magnet and poled for generating a repulsive force therebetween, said second magnet having a second circular end face with an inverted cone extending therefrom for insertion into said partition aperture in sealing engagement with said O-ring, wherein a vacuum communicated from the engine to said outlet connection displaces said first and second magnets to draw ambient air through said air cleaner, said partition aperture and said outlet connection to the engine.
