Air intake muffler and outboard engine assembly having the same

摘要

An air intake muffler has an enclosure having a longitudinal axis, a first portion, and a second portion defining with the first portion an interior space of the enclosure. An air intake connecting duct is formed unitarily with the first portion of the enclosure and extends outwardly from the interior space of the enclosure. A pair of outside air intake ducts for introducting outside air into the interior space of the enclosure diverge in a V-shaped configuration from the longitudinal axis of the enclosure. Each of the outside air intake ducts has a pair of mating concave portions each formed unitarily with a respective one of the first and second portions of the enclosure and extending outwardly from the interior space of the enclosure.
