An air intake apparatus has an air intake port opening outside, and an air
intake path communicating the air intake port with a combustion chamber
of an engine. For suppressing noise getting out from the air intake port,
with respect to walls partitioning the air intake path, an opening is
provided at a part of said walls corresponding to an antinode region of
resonance mode of standing wave in a full length of the intake path, or
at a part of noise pressure level being high in the intake path. The
opening is closed with a permeable member and a noise insulating wall is
disposed outside the permeable member for suppressing emission of
transmitting noise passing through the permeable member. member.
Alternatively, a vibration control member for suppressing face-vibration
of the permeable member and reducing radiant noise from the permeable
member is provided instead of the noise insulating wall.
