Abstract
A combustion air blower, especially side channel blower, for a fuel-operated vehicle heater, includes a blower housing (38). An air flow space (44), through which combustion air being fed can flow, is formed in the blower housing (38). Air flowing over an inlet area (55) into the air flow space (44) flows to a feed area enclosing a feed wheel (48). At least one hydrocarbon storage element (70, 88) is formed in the air flow space (44), for storing gaseous hydrocarbon present in the air flow space (44).
