Abstract
A supercharger includes: an impeller that pressurizes intake air for a combustion engine; a supercharger rotation shaft to which the impeller is fixed; and a supercharger case rotatably supporting the supercharger rotation shaft. A supercharger lubricating fluid passage that guides a lubricating fluid to a bearing housing is formed inside the supercharger case, and an oil filter that removes foreign matter from the lubricating fluid is disposed in the supercharger lubricating fluid passage. The oil filter is detachably mounted on the supercharger case by an operation from the outside of the supercharger.
