Abstract:
An intake manifold includes a plurality of intake pipes that are provided in line to send air to an engine mounted on a vehicle through the intake pipes. Each of the intake pipes includes a main body formed of resin and an end pipe formed of resin, welded to a lower stream end side of the main body, and joined to the engine. Further, one member of the main body and the end pipe is provided with a rib that is formed on a side surface portion of the one member and that extends toward a lateral side of the other member. The other member is provided with a restriction portion that is formed on a side surface portion of the other member and that interferes with the rib to restrict moving of the main body in the crash direction relative to the end pipe when a weld portion of the main body and the end pipe is broken due to a collision load applied to the intake pipe at a vehicle crash.
