Abstract

In this air induction module, the induction pipe has two separate induction pipe bodies (1, 2) with induction pipe sections that, together, form the induction pipes. The second induction pipe body (2), which can be attached to the cylinder head of the combustion engine, contains, in its induction pipe sections, a pulse charging valve (3) with an associated actuator. In addition to the pulse charging valves, the control electronics thereof can be integrated in the air induction module.
