Abstract
An intake manifold and a collector made of synthetic resin are molded integrally to constitute a body of an intake module. A synthetic resin holder for holding at least one of a harness and a piping member (a pipe for hot water, and a canister purge pipe) is mounted at the upper part of the intake module body to incorporate the harness and/or piping member as an intake module element. Further, an engine control unit, an injector, a throttle body and so on are also incorporated into the module body to progress formation of an intake system of the internal combustion engine into module, and module elements are increased more than that presented previously to further enhance simplicity of vehicle assembling work, convenience of transportation, and mounting density, and to realize smaller and lighter weight, housing properties, and lower resistance of harness.
