A duct main body is formed into a hollow tubular shape having in an
interior thereof an intake passageway for introducing outside air into an
internal combustion engine by connecting integrally a plurality of
divided bodies such as a first divided body and a second divided body
which are formed of a thermoplastic resin and has in a duct wall of the
second divided body an opening which establishes a communication between
the inside and outside of the intake passageway. An air-permeable member
is insert molded in the second divided body in such a manner as to cover
the opening. The air-permeable member has on an outer edge thereof a
joining portion which is impregnated with the thermoplastic resin. The
second divided body has in at least part of an inner peripheral edge of
the opening a vertical wall portion which protrudes outwards from the
duct wall of the second divided body along an inner edge of the opening,
and at least part of the joining portion of the air-permeable member is
embedded in the vertical wall portion in such a manner as to be held
therein in a thickness direction.
