    Abstract: An intake manifold includes an upper shell, a lower shell, and a middle shell that interconnects the upper and lower shells. The lower shell has a plurality of longitudinally spaced shell ports. Each shell port is adapted for installation over a corresponding intake port for an engine cylinder head. The upper shell has a plurality of runners that are used to guide air to the shell ports. The middle shell has a plurality of channels that interconnect the runners and the shell ports such that air can flow through the runner to the cylinder intake port. Fuel injector pockets are formed within the upper, middle, and lower shells with each of the pockets having an injector opening in communication with the corresponding shell port. An internal fuel rail, formed between the upper and middle shells, supplies fuel to each of the injector pockets. A fuel injector is installed into each injector pocket such that the injectors are substantially enclosed within the manifold. An internal wire harness rail, formed between the upper and middle shells, supports a wire harness that electrically connects each of the injectors to a power supply.

    Abstract: An injection molded screw retainer is employed on an air intake manifold system to retain screws which connect an active system body to a manifold lower assembly. The retainer is substantially nullL-shapednull and includes a retaining portion and a substantially perpendicular attachment portion. The retaining portion includes a substantially hemispherical feature positioned substantially over the head of the screw. The oversized attachment portion is inserted within a pocket in the active system body. Ultrasonic energy applied by a sonic welding process slightly melts the outer surface of the attachment portion, creating a weld interference between the attachment portion and the pocket, securing the attachment portion within the pocket.

    Abstract: A field replaceable unitary manifold housing for providing combustion air and combustion fuel to an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The housing includes an air purification cavity having a spaced apart air intake and air discharge. The housing also includes a filter for purifying air disposed in the air purification cavity intermediate the air intake and the air discharge. The housing also includes a hollow elongate member having a first end coupled to the filter and a second end coupled to a plenum chamber for directing the air, the plenum chamber being integral with the air purification cavity. The housing also includes a plurality of channels, each channel integral with the housing and having a first end integral with the plenum chamber and a second end coupled to a cylinder head of the engine. The air intake induces air into the air purification cavity, the induced air is purified by the filter, the hollow elongate member directs the air from the filter to the plenum chamber, and the plurality of channels direct the air from the plenum chamber to the cylinder head.

    Abstract: A method of securing intake tubes in an intake manifold is provided in which leakage of brazing material from the joint between the intake tubes and the intake tube mounting rings is prevented. For securing each intake tube in the intake manifold, the intake tube 3 is fitted into the intake tube mounting ring 5. Then, a jig 13 of a tubular shape is inserted into insert areas of the intake tube 3 and the intake tube mounting ring 5. The jig 13 includes separate sections 16 defined by slits extending to a predetermined length in parallel to the axis and has a plurality of projections 19 and 20 provided on the outer side of the separate sections 16 thereof. A bar-like pressing tool 14 reduced in the diameter towards its front end is inserted into the interior of a tubular shape of the peen locking jig 13, and it is then advanced relatively towards the insert area by the action of pressing means. As a result, the projections 19 and 20 are dislocated radially and press the outer side of the intake tube 3 against the inner side of the intake tube mounting ring 5 to join each other by the effect of plastic deformation.
