PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an intake air duct further allowing the deformation of an engine hood by reducing the rigidity of a duct and certainly taking in intake air by preventing the deformation of an air introducing portion caused by an intake air vacuum. SOLUTION: The intake air duct 21 includes: the duct 22 arranged below the engine hood 26 and having an air vent 24 for taking in air from the front of a vehicle; an air introducing portion 23 introducing air from the duct 22 toward an air cleaner; and a strut 30 projecting from the inner peripheral surface of the bottom 22a of the duct 22 toward the upper portion 22b of the duct 22. The duct 22 having the strut 30 and the air introducing portion 23 are integrally molded by blow molding. The duct 22 is composed of a thermoplastic elastomer, and the air introducing portion 23 is composed of a material harder than the thermoplastic elastomer. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
