Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an air cleaner capable of mitigating impact by making an engine hood deformed when a pedestrian collides. SOLUTION: A filter system for an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle has an unfiltered air inlet 12, a filtered air outlet 11, a housing and a filter element arranged in the housing. The housing comprises a lower member 10 and an upper member 14. The upper member 14 of the housing has a support grate embedded in foam material. The support grate and the foam material are configured such that bending of the upper member 14 in a direction of the lower member is ensured when a load is applied. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT
