Abstract: A branch pipe is coupled to a middle portion of an outside-air connection pipe. A fresh-air inlet of the branch pipe opens into the outside air. A check valve is provided in the branch pipe. The check valve restrains air in the outside-air connection pipe from flowing out into the outside air via the branch pipe and allows the outside air to flow into the outside-air connection pipe via the branch pipe when an inside pressure of the outside-air connection pipe decreases to a specified negative pressure. The fresh-air inlet of the branch pipe is positioned at a specified level higher than a fresh-air inlet of the outside-air connection pipe and disposed in a space formed between wheel house panels and a mud guard.

Abstract: In the case of mounting a liquid storage tank or an intake air resonator on a substantially frame-shaped resin shroud panel (1) with an opening (11d) in which a radiator (2) is disposed, the shroud panel (1) is integrally formed at its both lateral sides with body fastening parts (12, 12) which will be fastened to right and left front side frames (4, 4), respectively, and the body fastening parts (12, 12) are integrally formed on their outsides in the vehicle width direction with casing placement parts (15a, 16a) on which will be placed a casing (15) for a liquid storage tank and a casing (16) for an intake air resonator in proximity to the body fastening parts (12, 12), respectively.
