Problems solved by technology

However, in the case of connecting the intake muffler and the throttle device via a connecting pipe formed of an elastic material having rubber elasticity, a long pipe cannot be used as the connecting pipe due to its flexibility.

Embodiment Construction

[0032] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0033] refer to figure 1 , The internal combustion engine to which the present invention is applied is equipped on an outboard engine S as a marine propulsion engine. The outboard engine S has: an internal combustion engine E equipped with a crankshaft 26 having a rotation center line oriented in the up-down direction; a power transmission device that transmits the power of the internal combustion engine E to a propeller 12; a mounting box 1 that supports the internal combustion engine at an upper end E; the extension box 3, which is connected to the installation box 1 through the oil tank 2 which is connected to the lower end of the installation box 1; the gear box 4, which is connected to the lower end of the extension box 3; the lower cover 5, which is covered in the up and down direction From the lower part of the internal combustion engine E including the installati...

Abstract

An intake device for an internal combustion engine has an intake muffler (30) forming an expansion chamber (33) and also has a connection tube (40) having an inflow opening (46) from which air in the expansion chamber (33) flows in and an outflow opening (47) from which air flowing to a combustion chamber flows out. The connection tube (40) is made from an elastic material having rubber elasticity and has a connection section (41) connected to the air intake muffler (30), an inner tube section (42) extending from the connection section (41), in the expansion chamber (33), and in which the inflow opening (46) is formed, and an outer tube section (43) to which a throttle valve device (50) is connected. A communication hole (44) is provided in a tube wall (42w) of the inner tube section (42), and the communication hole (44) causes the expansion chamber (33) and an air path (45) to communicate with each other in order to make the expansion chamber (33) function as a resonance chamber. The outer tube section (43) has a shorter length than the inner tube section (42). Thus, sound muffling by expansion and sound muffling by resonance are combined in the intake muffler.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an internal combustion engine having an air intake equipped with an air intake muffler forming an expansion chamber, which can be used, for example, in outboard engines. Background technique [0002] An intake device of an internal combustion engine is known to have an intake muffler forming an expansion chamber to reduce intake noise (see, for example, JP-A-2001-165012 and JP-A-2000-145594). Furthermore, an intake device of an internal combustion engine having an intake muffler device provided with a resonance chamber in addition to an intake muffler is also known (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). [0003] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2-49963 [0004] When the intake muffler that forms only the expansion chamber, that is, the expansion muffler, cannot sufficiently suppress the intake noise in a specific frequency band, an intake muffler that forms a resonance chamber, that is, a resona...
