Abstract
An air guiding system is provided for an internal-combustion engine of a piston-type construction and includes an air filter and a feeding device for a suction system connected with cylinders of the internal-combustion engine. A receptacle, through which air flows, is arranged in a pipe between the air filter and the feeding device for influencing resonances. For optimizing the sound characteristics of the internal-combustion engine, the pipe is interrupted in the area of the receptacle, and a cross-section of the receptacle is larger than the cross-section of pipe sections of the pipe extending to the receptacle.
