レゾネーター
　この発明は、エンジンの吸気経路中に備えられてこの吸気経路の一部を構成するレゾネーターの改良に関する。
　一対の容器部材の開放端に形成されたフランジ同士を溶着してなるレゾネーターがある。（特許文献１参照）かかるレゾネーターにあっては、一対の容器部材の一方のフランジに形成させた溝に、一対の容器部材の他方のフランジに形成させた突部を納め、この突部を溶融させて前記溶着をなしているものと理解される。しかしながら、単に溝に突部を納めての溶着では、溶融樹脂の溶着箇所外への漏れだし、特にレゾネーターの外側への漏れだしを抑止できる保証はなく、また、このような漏れ出しは溶着強度の低下の要因ともなる。
特許第３２７６５１７号公報
　この発明が解決しようとする主たる問題点は、合成樹脂製のレゾネーターを、二つの箱構成体の溶着によって、適切に構成できるようにする点にある。
　前記課題を達成するために、この発明にあっては、レゾネーターを、エンジンの吸気経路中に備えられる合成樹脂製のレゾネーターであって、
　これを構成する空気室を、底面部とこの底面部を巡る周回壁部とを備えた第一の箱構成体のこの周回壁部と、底面部とこの底面部を巡る周回壁部とを備えた第二の箱構成体のこの周回壁部とを突き合わせ溶着させて構成させており、
　第一の箱構成体の周回壁部の上端部には周回溝が形成され、第二の箱構成体の周回壁部の上端部には前記突き合わせ時に前記周回溝に納められて周回溝の溝底に溶着される周回突部が形成されていると共に、
　第一の箱構成体の周回壁部におけるその外壁面と前記周回溝との間にある上端面が、その内壁面と前記周回溝との間にある上端面よりも上方に位置されるようになっているものとした。
　かかる構成によれば、前記溶着時において、第一の箱構成体の周回壁部と第二の箱構成体の周回壁部とを、両者の外壁面間に隙間を生じさせないように突き合わせることができ、かかる溶着により生じる溶融樹脂がレゾネーターの外側に漏れだしバリを形成するような事態を効果的に防止することができる。
　前記第一の箱構成体の周回溝を、この第一の箱構成体の内側に位置される一方溝壁側に最深部を有し、この最深部と他方溝壁間にこの他方溝壁に近づくに連れて周回溝を浅くする傾斜底面を有するものとしておけば、かかる傾斜底面により、前記溶着により生じる溶融樹脂を第一の箱構成体の内側、つまり、生成されるレゾネーターの空気室の内側に誘導してこの溶着をなすことができ、かかるレゾネーターの外側への前記溶融樹脂に漏れだしを一層効果的に防止することができる。
　また、前記第一の箱構成体の周回壁部と第二の箱構成体の周回壁部との突き合わせ時に、周回突部と周回溝部における第一の箱構成体の内側に位置される一方溝壁との間に空隙が形成されるようにしておくこともある。このようにしておけば、前記溶着により生じる溶融樹脂をかかる空隙に留めてこの溶着をなすことができ、レゾネーターの外側への前記溶融樹脂に漏れだしを防止しつつ第一の箱構成体と第二の箱構成体とを周回壁部の上端部において強固に溶着することができる。
　また、前記第一の箱構成体の周回壁部におけるその内壁面と周回溝との間の距離を、その外壁面と周回溝との間の距離よりも小さくさせておくこともある。このようにした場合、第一の箱構成体の周回壁部の上端部におけるレゾネーターの外側に位置される箇所の強度を高く確保しながら、この上端部の内外寸法を必要最小限のものとすることができる。
　この発明によれば、合成樹脂製のレゾネーターを、二つの箱構成体の溶着によって、適切に構成することができる。

　以下、図１～図７に基づいて、この発明の典型的な実施の形態について、説明する。この実施の形態にかかるレゾネーターＲは、エンジンの吸気経路中に備えられてこの吸気経路の一部を構成するものである。図示の例では、レゾネーターＲは、前記吸気経路において、キャニスターとインテークマニホールドとの間に配される構造のものとなっている。
　かかるレゾネーターＲは、空気室１と、これに連通する管部２とを有している。空気室１は扁平の箱状体３によって構成されている。管部２は箱状体３の幅広の面３ａの一方に管一端を一体に連接させて前記空気室１に連通した主管２ａと、この主管２ａの管一端と管他端との間においてこの主管２ａに管一端を一体に連接させてこの主管２ａに連通した分岐管２ｂとから構成されている。かかる主管２ａの管他端を前記吸気経路の構成管の一つ（図示は省略する。）に接続させ、かつ、前記分岐管２ｂの管他端を前記吸気経路の構成管の他の一つ（図示は省略する。）に接続させることで、レゾネーターＲはかかる吸気経路の一部を構成するようになっている。
　内部を前記空気室１とする前記箱状体３は、第一の箱構成体４と第二の箱構成体５とを組み合わせてなる。具体的には、かかる箱状体３は、底面部４ａとこの底面部４ａを巡る周回壁部４ｂとを備えた第一の箱構成体４のこの周回壁部４ｂと、底面部５ａとこの底面部５ａを巡る周回壁部５ｂとを備えた第二の箱構成体５のこの周回壁部５ｂとを突き合わせ溶着させることで構成されている。
　図示の例では、箱状体３は、二つの幅広の面３ａ、３ａと、この二つの幅広の面３ａ、３ａ間に亙る幅狭の側面３ｂとを有している。第一の箱構成体４及び第二の箱構成体５の底面部４ａ、５ａにより箱状体３の幅広の面３ａが形成され、第一の箱構成体４及び第二の箱構成体５の周回壁部４ｂ、５ｂにより箱状体３の前記幅狭の側面３ｂが形成されるようになっている。
　かかる第一の箱構成体４の周回壁部４ｂの上端部４０には周回溝４１が形成され、第二の箱構成体５の周回壁部５ｂの上端部５０には前記突き合わせ時に前記周回溝４１に納められて周回溝４１の溝底４１ｅに溶着される周回突部５１が形成されている。
　図示の例では、第一の箱構成体４及び第二の箱構成体５はいずれも、周回壁部４ｂ、５ｂの上端部４０、５０に外側に突き出す鍔状部４２、５２を有している。そして、第一の箱構成体４にあっては、この鍔状部４２によって構成された周回壁部４ｂの外壁面４３と、周回壁部４ｂの内壁面４４との間にある上端面４５に、前記周回溝４１が刻設状に形成されている。また、第二の箱構成体５にあっては、前記鍔状部５２によって構成された周回壁部５ｂの外壁面５３と、周回壁部５ｂの内壁面５４との間にある上端面５５に、前記周回突部５１が凸設されている。
　そして、この実施の形態にあっては、前記第一の箱構成体４の周回壁部４ｂにおけるその外壁面４３と前記周回溝４１との間にある上端面４５ｂが、その内壁面と前記周回溝４１との間にある上端面４５ａよりも上方に位置されるようになっている。（図７）
　これにより、この実施の形態にあっては、前記溶着時において、第一の箱構成体４の周回壁部４ｂと第二の箱構成体５の周回壁部５ｂとを、両者の外壁面４３、５３間に隙間を生じさせないように突き合わせることができ、かかる溶着により生じる溶融樹脂がレゾネーターＲの外側に漏れだしバリを形成するような事態を効果的に防止可能となっている。
　この実施の形態にあっては、前記管部２は第一の箱構成体４に備えられている。そして、前記溶着は、かかる第一の箱構成体４を管部２を下にして治具上に支持した上で、この第一の箱構成体４上に第二の箱構成体５を降下させてなすようにしている。治具は、第一の箱構成体４の周回壁部４ｂの外壁面４３に対する圧接部Ｓａを備えた受け部材Ｓを備えており、第一の箱構成体４は四つの受け部材Ｓ…Ｓによって押さえつけられて支持される。（図４、図５）前記溶着終了後は受け部材Ｓはスライド移動して第一の箱構成体４の押さえつけは解かれる。前記溶着は、超音波溶着などの公知の溶着手法によって、前記周回突部５１の突きだし端側を溶融させることでなされる。
　また、この実施の形態にあっては、前記第一の箱構成体４の周回溝４１は、この第一の箱構成体４の内側に位置される一方溝壁４１ａ側に最深部４１ｃを有し、この最深部４１ｃと他方溝壁４１ｂ間にこの他方溝壁４１ｂに近づくに連れて周回溝４１を浅くする傾斜底面４１ｄを有している。すなわち、周回溝４１の溝底４１ｅは最深部４１ｃと傾斜底面４１ｄとから構成されている。
　具体的には、図示の例では、周回溝４１は、最深部４１ｃにおいて溝底４１ｅを内壁面４４に直交する向きの水平面とすると共に、この最深部４１ｃと他方溝壁４１ｂとの間にある溝底４１ｅを前記傾斜底面４１ｄとしている。そして、前記周回突部５１はこの傾斜底面４１ｄに押しつけられて溶着されるようになっている。（図６、図７／図７にこの溶着箇所を符号４１ｆで示す。）
　これにより、この実施の形態にあっては、かかる傾斜底面４１ｄにより、前記溶着により生じる溶融樹脂を第一の箱構成体４の内側、つまり、生成されるレゾネーターＲの空気室１の内側に誘導してこの溶着をなすことができ、かかるレゾネーターＲの外側への前記溶融樹脂に漏れだしを一層効果的に防止可能となっている。
　また、この実施の形態にあっては、第一の箱構成体４の周回壁部４ｂと第二の箱構成体５の周回壁部５ｂとの突き合わせ時に、周回突部５１と周回溝４１における第一の箱構成体４の内側に位置される一方溝壁４１ａとの間に空隙ｘが形成されるようになっている。（図７）
　これにより、この実施の形態にあっては、前記溶着により生じる溶融樹脂をかかる空隙ｘに留めてこの溶着をなすことができ、レゾネーターＲの外側への前記溶融樹脂に漏れだしを防止しつつ第一の箱構成体４と第二の箱構成体５とを周回壁部４ｂ、５ｂの上端部４０、５０において強固に溶着できるようになっている。
　また、この実施の形態にあっては、第一の箱構成体４の周回壁部４ｂにおけるその内壁面４４と周回溝４１との間の距離ｙが、その外壁面４３と周回溝４１との間の距離ｙ’よりも小さくなっている。（図６）
　これにより、この実施の形態にあっては、第一の箱構成体４の周回壁部４ｂの上端部４０におけるレゾネーターＲの外側に位置される箇所の強度を高く確保しながら、この上端部４０の内外寸法を必要最小限のものとしている。
　２０１１年５月１７日に出願された日本特許出願第２０１１－１１０４４９号の明細書、特許請求の範囲、図面及び要約書の全内容をここに引用し、本発明の明細書の開示として、取り入れるものである。
