Abstract
An air passage type wheel deflector applied to a vehicle may include a deflector body 10 fastened to the floor panel by screws 40 and mounted at the rear wheel 120 side, an air duct 20 forming an air passage 20-1 for forcing the air introduced externally to flow downward and discharge in a state of being covered by the deflector body 10 coupled to the air duct, and a plurality of ribs 30 disposed in the deflector body 10 at a certain rib spacing and positioned in the space of the air passage 20-1 so that robustness against strike by chipping is maintained and at the same time aerodynamic performance is improved resulting from improvement of the kick-up function by the air passage 20-1.
