The air-cleaner includes a housing. The air-cleaner includes a filter element located in the housing to filter air taken into the housing. The air-cleaner includes an adsorption element for adsorbing vaporized fuel flowing into the housing. The housing includes first and second housing components having open ends put on each other. The filter element is held between the first and second housing components, separating the housing into a clean side and a dust side. The adsorption element includes a frame at the periphery; and an adsorption portion located inside the frame. One of the first and second housing components as the clean side has an inner side back in the open end, the inner side having a mounting portion having the adsorption element mounted thereto. The mounting portion includes the adsorption element; and a support member placed thereon.

Air-cleaner

An air cleaner is provided with a housing, a filter element disposed inside the housing for filtrating air introduced into the housing, and an adsorption element disposed in the housing for adsorbing gasified fuel in the housing, the adsorption element including an adsorbing member adsorbing gasified fuel and a frame surrounding the adsorbing member to hold the adsorbing member. The air cleaner further includes a plurality of first fusing projections projecting from one surface of the frame, a plurality of ribs formed to an inner surface of the housing so as to project therefrom and extending laterally and transversely to cross each other, and a plurality of second fusing projections formed to the inner surface of the housing at positions corresponding to the location of the first fusing projections formed to the frame of the adsorption element, each of the second projections being surrounded by a pair of crossing ribs.
