  • Patent number: 11913491
    Abstract: A coupling structure includes a welding member formed of resin and a welded member that is formed of resin and to which the welding member is welded. In the welding member, a region that is welded to the welded member on the rear side in a predetermined direction is smaller than a region that is welded to the welded member on the front side in the predetermined direction.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 15, 2018
    Date of Patent: February 27, 2024
    Assignee: SUBARU CORPORATION

  • Patent number: 11225930
    Abstract: An engine includes a cylinder head, an intake manifold, and a partition wall. The cylinder head includes an intake port communicating with a combustion chamber. The intake manifold is fixed to the cylinder head and includes an intake passage communicating with the intake port. The partition wall that separates at least part of the intake port into a first channel and a second channel. The partition wall includes a partition wall member extending from the intake port to the intake passage and fixed to an inner wall of the intake port and an inner wall of the intake passage.

  • Patent number: 10422307
    Abstract: An intercooler (5) is received in an intercooler receiving portion (6) of an intake manifold (1) leaving a given space therebetween and longitudinally opposed walls (10a, 10b) of the intercooler receiving portion (6) are formed with ribs (11) to increase a mechanical strength thereof, so that, even when a heat exchanging device (5a) of the intercooler (5) is set in the intercooler receiving portion (6) having longitudinally opposed walls thereof placed close to the longitudinally opposed walls (10a, 10b) of the intercooler receiving portion (6), undesired contact or interference between mutually opposed ones of the longitudinally opposed walls is suppressed permitting a larger amount of intake air flow through a major portion of the heat exchanging device (5a) thereby causing increased cooling efficiency of the intercooler (5).
