Air cleaner resonator mounting system and cover

摘要

An air cleaner includes a slide retention structure which engages a sliding resonator volume. The volume slides along the slide retention structure into an assembled position. Once assembled, a tuning tube engages an aperture in the volume, the volume and the resonator assembly reducing noise produced by the engine. A flexible seal is positioned around the aperture to acoustically seal the resonator volume to the tuning tube. An air cleaner cover is secured to the box by a lock plate. To lock the cover to the box, the lock plate is slid so that a plurality of wedges on the plate are forced under hooks on the box, securing the cover to the box. A side opening located proximate to the wedges allow the lock plate to slide so that the hooks do not hinder the movement of the lock plate.
