Disclosed herein is an air duct assembly for vehicles which reduces noise generated by the flow of intake air which flows along a path of the air duct provided in a vehicle and is fed to an engine. The air duct reduces the noise of a low frequency range in initial engine start operation, and in addition, the noise of a whole frequency range, thus allowing a vehicle to be traveled while providing the environment having minimum noise to a driver and passenger riding in the vehicle. Therefore, it is not necessary to install an additional resonator.

An integrated mass air flow sensor/broadband silencer assembly comprises a molded body having a plurality of walls formed therein. The molded body is over-wrapped with a layer of acoustic foam that, together with the plurality of walls, define a plurality of chambers within an interior volume of the assembly. A mass air flow sensor can be inserted into one of the chambers. The chambers are sized and spaced to provide a uniform velocity, low turbulence air flow to the sensor, and a minimally-restricted air flow to an internal combustion engine located downstream of the assembly.

An air induction system with active noise control includes a self-cleaning air filter that is integrated within an air intake housing.

The self-cleaning filter is powered and controlled by the same electronic unit that is used to power the active noise control system.

An air cleaner assembly and a filter element reduce wall noise by rigidly coupling the movement of opposing air cleaner housing sidewalls through the installed filter element. The sidewalls are rigidly coupled through the filter element with the sidewalls coupled to move together in unison such that wall deflection forces created by the pressure pulsations tend to cancel each resulting in improved dynamic stiffening of the air cleaner walls and reduced wall noise.

An air intake duct, of a saddle-riding type vehicle, in which a flow velocity of an intake air is less likely to be reduced to enable prevention of reduction of an efficiency of a supercharger, is provided. The air intake duct of a motorcycle serves to supply incoming wind as the intake air to the supercharger for a combustion engine. The air intake duct has a passage area that is gradually reduced from an air intake port at a front portion toward a downstream portion connected to the supercharger at a rear portion.

An air induction system for a vehicle engine includes a sensor assembly for monitoring particulate concentration. The sensor assembly is mounted within an air intake housing, which has an inlet and an outlet. An airflow passageway extends between the inlet and the outlet to the vehicle engine. An air filter is mounted within the housing to filter particulates from air flowing through the airflow passageway. The sensor assembly can be mounted to an intake manifold or incorporated into a mass airflow sensor. The particulate sensor generates a particulate signal representative of particulate concentration entering the vehicle engine via the outlet. The signal is sent to an output device monitored by a vehicle operator.
