A charge pipe passage includes: a first engine-side pipe passage part which extends vertically; a second engine-side pipe passage part which is connected to a lower end of the first engine-side pipe passage part on one side in the vehicle widthwise direction and extends from one side to the other side in the vehicle widthwise direction above the engine body; and a third engine-side pipe passage part which is communicably connected to the second engine-side pipe passage part on the other side in the vehicle widthwise direction and is connected to the engine body, and at least a part of the charge pipe passage between a frame-side support part and an engine-side support part is formed of an elastic tube.

Evaporated fuel treatment device for motorcycle

There is provided a vaporized fuel control device for a straddle type vehicle that can prevent a situation that liquid fuel in a fuel tank flows into an engine and a situation that oil in the engine flows into the fuel tank while adapting the vaporized fuel control device to the layout of the straddle vehicle. A vaporized fuel passageis disposed so as to have an uppermost portion X at some position thereof between the fuel tankand the engine E, and the uppermost portion X is disposed at a higher position than the fuel upper limit level of the fuel tank, the oil upper limit level in the engine E and a footrest portion

Evaporated fuel control device for vehicles that are straddled

A charge pipe passage includes a first tank-side pipe passage part which is connected to an upper surface of a fuel tank, and a second tank-side pipe passage part which is connected with the first tank-side pipe passage part and extends toward the other side of the fuel tank from one side of the fuel tank in the vehicle widthwise direction on an end portion thereof on a fuel tank side, and the first and second tank-side pipe passage parts, are fixed to the upper surface of the fuel tank.

There is provided an evaporated fuel control device for a saddle-type vehicle in which an air supply passage is laid out without being disposed at a higher position than a fuel tank. The fuel tankis disposed at a higher position than the engine, an evaporated fuel passageis routed as a descending passage from the fuel tankto the engine, and an air supply passageis jointed to a halfway position of the evaporated fuel passagewhich is located at a fuel tankside with respect to a first check valveand positionally lower than the uppermost portion of the fuel tank

Evaporated fuel control device for saddle-type vehicles

A charge pipe passage includes a second pipe passage part which is connected to a fuel tank by way of a first pipe passage part and extends toward the other side from one side in the vehicle widthwise direction, and a third pipe passage part which is communicably connected with the second pipe passage part on the other side in the vehicle widthwise direction and has a highest part arranged at a highest position of the charge pipe passage at an intermediate position thereof. A first check valve is interposed on the third pipe passage part downstream of the highest part, an atmospheric air introducing pipe passage is connected to the third pipe passage part upstream of the first check valve, and a second check valve is interposed on the atmospheric air introducing pipe passage at a position higher than the highest part.

A saddle-type vehicle is provided with: a seat on which a driver sits; a fuel tank positioned in front of the seat; an engine positioned below the fuel tank and having a crankcase and a cylinder projecting upward from a front of the crankcase; and a fuel vapor passage that is connected to the fuel tank and emits evaporated fuel in the fuel tank to an outside of the fuel tank. At least a part of the fuel vapor passage passes behind the cylinder. The fuel vapor passage is connected to the crankcase mat a portion in a rear side of the cylinder and opens toward oil in the engine.

Saddle-type vehicle

A blowby gas ventilation system for an internal combustion engine capable of preventing oil from being diluted by efficiently and quickly exhausting a blowby gas together with a water content and the like from a crank chamber through forced ventilation of the crank chamber. The blowby gas ventilation system is intended for a four-stroke-cycle internal combustion engine. The system includes a fresh air introduction pipe, through which fresh air is sent from an outside of the internal combustion engine through a throttle portion to a crank chamber. The system also includes a blowby gas return passageway, through which the blowby gas is returned back to a downstream side of an air cleaner.
