The present invention provides an air intake noise reducing device, an
internal combustion engine fitted with the air intake noise reducing
device and a structure for fitting the air intake noise reducing device
to the internal combustion engine. The air intake noise reducing device
comprises a gasket (2) comprising a ring member (2a) held by connecting
surfaces of an air intake passage (100) and protrusion holding portions
(2b) extending from the ring member (2a) toward a center of the air
intake passage (100); and a net member (3) comprising a net (3a) for
rectifying intake air and connecting protrusions (3b) extending outward
from the net (3). The connecting protrusions (3b) are held in the
protruding holding portions (2b) such that the ring member (3) is firmly
secured to the gasket (3). The air intake noise reducing device
constituted by in the above-mentioned manner can reduce assembly
man-hours without deteriorating a sealing property of the air passage.
