PURPOSE: To improve the cooling efficiency to the material to be cooled by providing seal parts for bending a hood-inner integrally from the front end thereof to a position opposite to the material to be cooled to abut a hood-outer, and interpositioning a sealing member over the whole length.
CONSTITUTION: A part of the outside air guided from a grille 5 as a vehicle travels is taken into an air guide 20 and is guided from an upper opening end into an air duct part 28 through a guide seal 33 and an air intake 3. At this stage, a hood lock reinforcing members 30, 31 guide the outside air from the intake 32 to the duct part 28 smoothly. Since a longlength sealing member 26 is interpositioned over the whole length of seal pars 24 dividing the duct part 28 and aggregate parts 27, all of the air continuing through the guide part 28 is guided to an air blow port 34 without the leakage to the aggregate parts 27 and is blown out toward an intercooler 4. Thereby, the height of a hood-inner is against and the air flow opening area is enlarged.
