Abstract
A wheel resonator, which is provided by integrating a first member having a first welding surface with a second member having a second welding surface and includes a volume chamber and a communicating tube. The volume chamber has a flat shape and is configured to extend along an outer surface of a vehicle wheel when the wheel resonator is attached to the vehicle wheel. The first welding surface and the second welding surface are welded to each other, and are provided on a single welding plane. The welding plane extends in a circumferential direction and a width direction of the vehicle wheel when the wheel resonator is attached to the vehicle wheel, is a plane on which the volume chamber is divided into two volume portions, and is a plane on which the communicating tube is divided into two communication portions. The communicating tube extends along the welding plane.
