ABSTRACT:
An air cleaner used regardless of a change in condition caused due to the presence/absence of an air valve, and thus it reduces the number of parts used, lowers the cost, and eliminates the requirement of changing the layout of peripheral parts of the air cleaner. One of an upper case and a lower case of the air cleaner has an intake port through which air is drawn into an internal space of the one case, and an integral partition wall is disposed near the intake port so as to isolate a portion of the internal space to form an extra space. The partition wall has a first surface facing the intake port and having a first opening formed therein, and a second surface facing the extra space and intersecting the first surface at an axis of intersection. The second surface has a second opening spaced from the axis of intersection by the same distance as the first opening is spaced from the axis of intersection. In another form of the invention, there is provided a partition wall disposed near the intake port and formed jointly by a wall portion partitioning the internal space, and a cover portion covering the wall portion so as to isolate a portion of the internal space to form an extra space. The partition wall has a first surface facing the intake port, and a second surface facing the extra space and intersecting the first wall at an acute angle defined between the first and second surfaces.
