one air-guiding component ( 24 ) which can be dismantled and has an exterior cover section and an interior cover section ( 42 ) defining a fresh air intake opening ( 28 ), which air-guiding component ( 24 ) forms a fresh air duct ( 26 ) which extends from the fresh air intake opening ( 28 ) to the fresh air inlet ( 22 ) of the filter chamber ( 18 ), which air-guiding component ( 24 ) closes the filter maintenance opening ( 40 ) by way of the interior cover section ( 42 ), wherein the air-guiding component ( 24 ) is connected in a positively locking manner to a filter-chamber wall ( 48 ) by a quick-action locking means comprising at least one projection on one of the interior cover section ( 42 ) and a housing of the air intake device ( 16 ) and at least one recess on another one of the interior cover section ( 42 ) and the housing of the air intake device ( 16 ) and accessible from the fresh air intake opening ( 28 ), and wherein the interior cover section ( 42 ) of the air-guiding component ( 24 ) forms a mounting for the filter ( 32 ).
2. The air intake device ( 16 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the filter maintenance opening ( 40 ) extends from the fresh air inlet ( 22 ) as far as the fan blower ( 34 ).
3. The air intake device ( 16 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the air-guiding component ( 24 ) is mounted pivotably on the filter-chamber wall ( 48 ).
4. The air intake device ( 16 ) according to claim 1 , wherein, in the installed state, the fresh air duct ( 26 ) runs in the direction from the fresh air intake opening ( 28 ) to the filter maintenance opening ( 40 ) and constantly upwards to the fresh air inlet ( 22 ).
5. The air intake device ( 16 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the air-guiding component ( 24 ) has at least one outflow opening ( 44 ) for liquid, which outflow opening ( 44 ) connects the filter chamber ( 18 ) to the fresh air duct ( 26 ) such that liquid which condenses on the filter ( 32 ) can run out through the outflow opening ( 44 ) into the fresh air duct ( 26 ).
6. The air intake device ( 16 ) according to claim 5 , wherein the fresh air duct ( 26 ) has a groove-shaped dewatering channel ( 66 ) which extends from the outflow opening ( 44 ) to the dewatering opening ( 46 ).
7. The air intake device ( 16 ) according to claim 6 , further comprising a cover ( 68 ) for covering the dewatering channel ( 66 ).
8. The air intake device ( 16 ) according to claim 1 , characterized in that, in the installed state, the air-guiding component ( 24 ) has a dewatering opening ( 46 ) at the lowermost point of the fresh air duct ( 26 ).
9. The air intake device ( 16 ) according to claim 1 , wherein, in the installed state, the filter ( 32 ) is installed such that it is inclined with respect to the horizontal, and a lower end of the filter ( 32 ) is arranged at the filter maintenance opening ( 40 ).
10. The air intake device ( 16 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the filter ( 32 ) has a filter frame ( 52 ) which has at least one frame opening ( 54 ) which makes an outflow of a liquid which condenses in the filter ( 32 ) possible.
11. The air intake device ( 16 ) according to claim 10 , wherein a frame opening ( 54 ) is provided for each filter fold.
12. The air intake device ( 16 ) according to claim 1 , wherein a recycling duct opens into the filter chamber ( 18 ), which recycling duct can be closed by means of a flap ( 36 ), the flap ( 36 ) lying remote from the filter maintenance opening ( 40 ) such that, during the dismantling, the filter ( 32 ) can be moved such that it is remote from the openings ( 20 , 22 ) which are assigned to the flap ( 36 ).
13. The air intake device ( 16 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the air-guiding component ( 24 ) is configured in such a way that, in the installed state of the ventilation system ( 10 ), the fresh air duct ( 26 ) extends through a protective wall ( 14 ) of the vehicle, which protective wall ( 14 ) separates an interior ( 12 ) of the vehicle from an engine compartment, the filter chamber ( 18 ) being arranged in the vehicle interior ( 12 ) and the fresh air intake opening ( 28 ) being arranged outside the vehicle interior ( 12 ).
