An air intake apparatus includes an air intake duct provided with an inlet
through which intake air should be introduced, an air cleaner disposed on
the downstream side of the air intake duct and for filtering the intake
air, and an air cleaner hose disposed on the downstream side of the air
cleaner and for supplying the filtered intake air to a combustion chamber
of an engine, wherein an intake air passageway is laid out between the
inlet and the combustion chamber. In a passageway wall surrounding an
antinode of a lower resonance mode corresponding to the whole passageway
length of the intake air passageway, a valve for opening a communicating
path allowing the inside of the intake air passageway to communicate with
the outside thereof at least when the lower resonance mode occurs, and an
air-permeable member disposed to block the communicating path are
disposed.
