摘要

The intake system of a multi-cylinder IC engine (1) comprises a manifold chamber (10) from which equal-length manifold tubes (11-13 etc.) extend and are directly or indirectly (8) connected to the cylinder head (3). The chamber is spherical and the axes of the manifold tubes converge at the centre of the sphere. For an in-line engine with at least two cylinders, the transverse median plane through the engine preferably bisects the sphere which is arranged beside the engine. The chamber may be integral with the manifold tubes and consist of a metal, e.g. ferrous or plastics casting.
