Prior Art In a conventional motorcycle, which has a single main frame above the engine located between the front and rear wheels, and a fuel tank with an inverted U-shaped cross section straddling the main frame, the engine and fuel tank are placed close to each other. In order to do this, a pair of left and right air purifier cases were placed below the front of the fuel tank, distributed between the left and right sides of the main frame (see Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 137216/1983).

Problems to be Solved In the above-mentioned motorcycle, the air purifier is placed below the front of the fuel tank, which protects the filtration element from rainwater flying from the front and foreign matter such as muddy water and dirt thrown up by the front wheels. Therefore, an air purifier case is required separately, which increases the size of the intake device.Also, the outside air that has been sucked in from the rear of the air purifier case and passed through the filter element is guided into the main frame. Since outside air is supplied to the carburetor from the lower opening of the frame, the intake passage becomes complicated and intake resistance increases.Furthermore, the opening provided in the main frame to form the intake passage increases the The strength and rigidity of the frame continued to decline, and there were significant restrictions on the layout of the intake system.

Means and Effects for Solving the Problems The present invention relates to an improvement of an intake system for a motorcycle that overcomes the above-mentioned difficulties, and includes a single main frame above the engine located between the front and rear wheels, and a fuel tank inside the fuel tank. The lower edge of the tank bottom wall with the inverted U-shaped cross section and the inverted U-shaped cross section larger than the tank bottom wall so that the cross-sectional shape between the fuel filling chambers is thick-walled and inverted U-shaped. In a motorcycle in which a fuel tank formed by integrally joining the lower edges of the top walls of the tank is disposed astride the main frame, the upper end of the rear shock absorber supporting the rear wheel is located behind the main frame. The air purifier is an external filtration type air purifier that filters the air outside the filtration element and introduces the clean air inside the filtration element into the intake part of the engine. a filtration element located below the lower surface of the rear part of the tank bottom wall; and an air tank located behind the rear shock absorber and below the lower surface of the rear part of the tank bottom wall and communicating with the internal space of the filtration element. Therefore, the two connecting pipes that communicate the air tank with the intake part of the engine cylinder sandwiched between the tank bottom wall of the fuel tank are distributed to the left and right with the rear shock absorber in between. It is characterized by being formed into a smoothly curved shape.

Further, in the present invention, the upper end of the rear shock absorber that supports the rear wheels is attached to the rear end of the main frame,
An air tank communicating with the internal space of the filter element is arranged behind the rear shock absorber and below the lower surface of the rear part of the tank bottom wall, and an intake part of the cylinder of the engine is sandwiched between the tank bottom wall of the fuel tank. and the air tank are connected through two connecting pipes, and the two connecting pipes are distributed to the left and right with the rear shock absorber in between, so that the width formed by the outer surface of the rear part of the tank top wall of the fuel tank is The narrow knee grip part communicates with the internal space of the filtration element above the main frame without being interfered with by the main frame located at the center of the vehicle width and the rear shock absorber, and from the air tank behind the rear shock absorber and the main frame. The intake device can be formed compactly by connecting and communicating with the intake part of the cylinder of the lower engine through a connecting pipe, and as a result, the engine and the fuel tank can be reliably brought close together, and the vehicle body can be downsized.

(See FIGS. 4 and 5) In this embodiment, as described above, a pair of filter elements 30 are located above the main frame 12.
, it is possible to obtain a larger intake surface area compared to conventional filtration elements, reduce intake air resistance, and if the surface area is made equal to that of conventional filtration elements, the space occupied by the filtration element will be reduced. This reduces space usage efficiency.

Further, air enters the rear space of the fuel tank 20 in which the filtration element 30 is housed from between the bottom wall of the fuel tank 20 and the heat shield plate 32, and its position is from the rear wheel RW. Since the head of the engine F is located far apart from the front wheels FW and serves as a shield, it is difficult for mud, dust, water, etc. thrown up by the front and rear wheels to reach the front wheels.
Even if the air entry opening is made larger, the filter element 30 is less likely to be contaminated. Moreover, the theory is that the larger the air inlet opening, the smaller the flow velocity of the incoming air.
It is hard to get dirty and can save you the trouble of maintenance.
