Claims

1. An air guide structure attached to the front structure of a vehicle, The air guide structure comprises a mounting portion attached to the structure, a hinge portion provided on the mounting portion, and a flow straightening portion rotatably attached to the mounting portion via the hinge portion for straightening the airflow while driving. The mounting portion is positioned on the front side of the structure so as to curve toward the front of the vehicle and attached to the structure, the hinge portion is provided on the upper part of the mounting portion, and the holding portion is provided on the lower part of the mounting portion, which elastically contacts the rectifying portion that rotates relative to the mounting portion via the hinge portion, thereby positioning and holding the rectifying portion toward the front side of the mounting portion. The air guide structure is characterized in that the rectifying portion curves toward the front of the vehicle and protrudes toward the front of the mounting portion, so as to have a space toward the front of the vehicle between it and the mounting portion.

2. The air guide structure according to Claim 1, An air guide structure characterized in that the upper surface of the lower part of the rectifier and the lower surface of the holding part are in elastic contact, thereby positioning and holding the rectifier in front of the mounting part.
