Abstract: A vapor chamber includes: an upper plate; a lower plate; a plurality of side walls disposed between the upper plate and the lower plate; a wick body that is disposed in a space sealed by the upper plate, the lower plate, and the side walls and that contacts the upper plate and the lower plate; and a pillar that is disposed in the space and contacts the upper plate and the lower plate. The wick body includes first wick portions each including a first terminal positioned in a vaporization portion, a linear portion, and a second terminal, wherein each of the first wick portions extends to the side walls from the first terminal, and a second wick portion that connects the second terminals of the first wick portions to each other.

Abstract: To suppress intake noise and secure a quiet ride on a straddle type vehicle wherein a box-shaped structure includes an air cleaner box connected to an engine. In addition, exhaust air from the radiator disposed in the vicinity of the box-shaped structure is prevented from hitting a leg portion of a rider. A main frame is provided as a separate body from a head box so as to support a power unit and a front two-wheeled suspension device. The head box is supported on the main frame due to the fact that an air cleaner box is fixed on the main frame through a fixing member. A guide portion is formed on the air cleaner box so as to guide the exhaust wind from a radiator to the lower direction.
