A front fender 12 is integrally formed with the security plate 12b, and has a mudguard portion 12a only in front of the front fork 5. In such a motorcycle, an air cleaner 13 is disposed between the front wheel 6 and the engine a, which is a relatively wide space, and at a position above the front part of the cooling means for the engine a, that is, the cooling fins a1 . The air cleaner 13 is installed in the case 1 as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4.
4 contains an element 15.

The case front part 14a is a cooling fin for engine a.
This is a part that performs a wind guiding function to guide cooling air to the front fender 12, is wider than the mudguard part 12a of the front fender 12, is tilted forward, and is closed by the lid 19.

一方、凹部18両側の側壁18aは冷却風をエ
ンジンa両側に沿つて後方へ導く作用を果す。
On the other hand, the side walls 18a on both sides of the recess 18 serve to guide the cooling air rearward along both sides of the engine a.

従つて、図中2点鎖線で示した如く側壁18a

Therefore, as shown by the two-dot chain line in the figure, the side wall 18a
If the side wall 1 is extended downward to near the middle part of the engine a, the air guiding effect will be further increased, and the side wall 1
If 8a is expanded toward the front of engine a, the effect will be even greater.

尚、上記側壁18aに代えてケース14に別途
に導風板を設けてもよいことは勿論である。
It goes without saying that a separate air guide plate may be provided in the case 14 in place of the side wall 18a.

The intake duct 20 is located in the recess 2 under the bottom of the fuel tank 2.
It is open facing into the air intake duct 2.
It is possible to prevent dust, mud, rainwater, etc. from entering the case 14 from the inside.

The outside air introduced into the case 14 is the element 1
After passing through 5, the air is led to the carburetor 1 from an intake outlet 21 on the rear surface of the case 14 via a duct 22.

エレメント15はケース14内に設けた保持部

The element 15 is held by a holding part 23 provided inside the case 14 and an element presser 24 having a pin 24a that is removably inserted into the holding part 23.

エレメント押え24はケース前面部14aに着
脱自在にネジ止めされる合成樹脂製の蓋19と同

Therefore, in a relatively wide space in front of the air cleaner 13, the lid 19 can be removed and the element retainer 24 can be removed.
At the same time, the element 15 can be taken out of the case 14, and maintenance such as replacement and cleaning of the element 15 can be easily performed.

しかして、上記エアクリーナ13はそのケース
前面部14aがエンジンa上方を流れる冷却風と
しての走行風をとらえ、エンジンaの冷却フイン
a1へ導く。
Therefore, the air cleaner 13 has its case front part 14a catch the running wind as the cooling air flowing above the engine a, and the cooling fins of the engine a.
Lead to a 1 .

尚、この導風機能はエアクリーナ13の前方に
フロントフエンダ12の泥除け部12aがあつて
も有効に発揮される。
Note that this air guiding function is effectively performed even if the mudguard portion 12a of the front fender 12 is located in front of the air cleaner 13.

何故なら、ケース前面部14aが泥除け部12
aよりも幅広であり、フロントフオーク5後方の
泥除け部の両側を通つて後方へ流れる走行風をと
らえてエンジンaの冷却フインa1へ導けるからで
ある。
This is because the case front part 14a is the mudguard part 12.
This is because it is wider than the front fork 5 and can catch the wind flowing rearward through both sides of the mudguard section behind the front fork 5 and guide it to the cooling fin a1 of the engine a.

次に、第5図に示した他の実施例について説明

In this example, engine b is connected to radiator 2.
The case front section 14a of the air cleaner 13 guides cooling air to the front section 25a of the radiator 25.

尚、上記以外の構造は前記実施例と同様である
ので、各部材に同じ符号を付して説明は省略す
