Utility vehicle

1. A utility vehicle comprising:

a body;

a frame supporting the body;

an engine mounted on the frame and requiring outside air;

an air cleaner connected to the engine; and

an air intake conduit connected to the air cleaner,

wherein an air intake port of the air intake conduit for sucking in outside air faces a center side of the utility vehicle, and

wherein the air intake conduit includes:

a chamber body having the air intake port, a connecting port communicating with the air cleaner, and an internal flow path communicating with both the air intake port and the connecting port; and

a connecting pipe connecting the connecting port and the air cleaner to allow communication therebetween.

2. The utility vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the air intake port is opened at least in a vehicle width direction of the utility vehicle.

3. The utility vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the internal flow path of the chamber body includes an upstream side flow path extending from the air intake port, a downstream side flow path extending from the connecting port at least in a direction in which the upstream side flow path extends, and a turn-around flow path connecting a distal end of the upstream side flow path farther from the air intake port and a distal end of the downstream side flow path farther from the connecting port.

4. The utility vehicle according to claim 3 , wherein the chamber body has, below the turn-around flow path of the internal flow path, a dust catching space for storing foreign substances contained in the outside air.

5. The utility vehicle according to claim 3 , wherein:

the upstream side flow path is located above the downstream side flow path in the internal flow path, and

a dust catching space for storing foreign substances contained in the outside air is located below the downstream side flow path.

6. The utility vehicle according to claim 5 , wherein the distal end of the downstream side flow path is located above the dust catching space.

7. The utility vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein a flow path cross-sectional area of the internal flow path is larger than opening areas of the air intake port and the connecting port.

8. The utility vehicle according to claim 4 , wherein the chamber body includes a drainage flow path communicating with the dust catching space and opened at a lower part of the chamber body.

9. The utility vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the chamber body includes a first member and a second member that is detachably attached to the first member and forming the internal flow path together with the first member.

10. The utility vehicle according to claim 2 , wherein the air intake port faces a side surface of the body with a gap formed therebetween.

11. The utility vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the chamber body does not protrude from a side surface of the body in front view or rear view of the utility vehicle.

12. The utility vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the chamber body includes a mudguard portion projecting from a lower end of the chamber body toward a side surface of the body and covering a gap between the chamber body and the body.

13. The utility vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the chamber body includes an eaves portion above the air intake port.

14. The utility vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the air intake port is located in an upper portion of the chamber body.

15. The utility vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the chamber body is made of a resin material and includes a metal bracket for attaching the chamber body to the frame.

16. The utility vehicle according to claim 15 , wherein the bracket includes a ring-shaped portion supporting and reinforcing an edge portion of the air intake port.

17. The utility vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the air intake port is located above a wheel in side view of the body.
