You may have. If such an under duct 60 is used, it is not necessary to form the protruding wall 52 in the under cover 11.
  • the under shutter 64 is not limited to the one that is opened and closed by the actuator device 90, and may be one that opens and closes based on an urging force applied from an elastic member such as a spring.
  • an elastic member such as a spring
  • FIG. 9 when the front shutter 50 is in a closed state, the under shutter 64 is held in an open state by a biasing force applied from an elastic member (not shown).
  • FIG. 10 when the front shutter 50 is in the open state, the under shutter 64 is in the closed state against the urging force of the elastic member due to the wind pressure of the outside air sucked from the outside air inlet 13. Retained. According to such a configuration, the under shutter 64 can be opened and closed with a simpler structure.
  • the structure of the duct member that guides the air whose air direction has changed by hitting the front shutter 50 to the first exhaust purification catalyst 22 is not limited to the structure like the under duct 60, and can be changed as appropriate.
  • duct members 100 and 101 can be used as shown in FIG.
  • the duct member 100 is disposed on the right side of the vehicle with respect to the shroud 45 and the engine 20.
  • the duct member 101 is disposed on the left side of the vehicle with respect to the shroud 45 and the engine 20.
  • the duct members 100 and 101 are disposed so as to extend from the vicinity of the shroud 45 to the vicinity of the first exhaust purification catalyst 22. Even when such duct members 100 and 101 are used, it is possible to obtain operations and effects similar to those of the above embodiment.
  • a duct member 120 as shown in the figure may be used.
  • the duct member 120 is disposed along the bottom wall portion 450 disposed below the vehicle among the outer walls covering the periphery of the outdoor heat exchanger 41, the high-temperature radiator 42, and the low-temperature radiator 43 in the shroud 45.
  • the duct member 120 is provided so as to extend the bottom wall portion 450 of the shroud 45 toward the rear of the vehicle.
  • an arrow W3 in FIG. 12 when the air hitting the front shutter 50 flows through the gap between the shroud 45 and the under cover 11, the air does not cause a short circuit and is generated by a heat source. It is led to an exhaust pipe 21 and a first exhaust purification catalyst 22 of an engine 20. Therefore, since the air supplied to the outdoor heat exchanger 41 can be heated more reliably, the heating performance of the heat pump cycle can be improved.
  • a diverter 620 may be formed on the air guide plate 62 of the under duct 60.
  • the diversion unit 620 divides the flow of air discharged from the discharge port 611 of the under duct 60 so as to flow on both side surfaces of the first exhaust purification catalyst 22 in the left-right direction of the vehicle. According to such a configuration, it is possible to reduce the ventilation resistance when the air discharged from the under duct 60 passes through the first exhaust purification catalyst 22.
  • the heat source to which the air by the duct member is guided is not limited to the first exhaust purification catalyst 22, the exhaust pipe 21, and the engine 20, but may be, for example, an exhaust manifold, a turbocharger, a motor, or an inverter.
