Next, the flow of the inflowing air taken from the inlet 51a of the rear upper cover 51 will be described. FIG. 10 is a flow explanatory diagram of inflow air of the body cover ventilation structure of the scooter type vehicle according to the present invention. First, as shown by a white arrow, air is taken into the body cover from the inlet 51b. Then, the inflow air taken into the body cover is guided so as to flow along the inner surface of the rear upper cover 51 by the current plate 52 on the downstream side of the inlet 51b. In this case, since the air intake port 18a of the air cleaner 18 is arranged so as to face the inner surface of the rear upper cover 51, the inflowing air flowing downstream along the inner surface of the rear upper cover 51 flows from the air intake port 18a to the air cleaner 18a. Take it in efficiently. On the other hand, the inflowing air that is not taken into the air intake port 18a is further made to flow downstream along the inner surface of the rear upper cover 51 and is exhausted to the outside from the outlet 51b.

The present invention has the following effects due to the above configuration. According to the present invention, a straightening vane is provided on the downstream side of the air inlet provided in the body cover, and the inflowing air is circulated along the inner surface of the body cover by the straightening vane, so that the flow of the inflowing air is effectively prevented without disturbing the tire or the like. It can be used to effectively cool the muffler and electrical components. Also, the air intake of the air cleaner is opened on the downstream side of this straightening plate toward the inner surface of the body cover, so that dust and the like rolled up by tires etc. can be more reliably prevented from entering the air cleaner, and the engine It is possible to supply fresh air that is not affected by the heat of the inside of the air cleaner. Therefore, the output characteristics of the engine can be improved.
