(54) Air filter


(57) An air filter (10) includes a filter core (12) and a base (13). Outer air is filtered by the filter core (12), and then flows to the base (13), which has a passageway provided in its center and connected with an air intake of an engine. An air concentrating tube (133) is provided on the upper end of the passageway, extending in the inside of the filer fore, having an upper end with a large opening, gradually shrinking down to have a lower end with a trumpet shape. The large upper end of the air concentrating tube can permit filtered clean air to flow smoothly through into the passageway (134) so that no turbulent current may happen in the air filter and filtered clean air may flow in an engine smoothly for boosting effectiveness of burning in the engine.
