PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a rectifier which prevents deterioration in air resistance due to an airstream passing through an inner diameter side of a wheel rim.SOLUTION: A rectifier is disposed in a vehicle 1 including: a wheel having a tire T and a rim R; a housing 41 provided with a hub bearing rotatably supporting the wheel; and a lower arm 52 swingably connected to a vehicle body lower part and a housing lower part respectively and extending substantially along a vehicle width direction. The rectifier includes air ejection means 60 which is disposed on a front side of the wheel, and forms an airstream S1 flowing in an inclined manner relative to a vehicle longitudinal direction such that air is ejected and a downstream side is on an inner side in the vehicle width direction relative to an upstream side in a region on a lower arm side of the wheel.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
【課題】車輪のリムの内径側を通過する気流による空気抵抗の悪化を防止した整流装置を提供する。【解決手段】タイヤT及びリムRを有する車輪と、車輪を回転可能に支持するハブベアリングが設けられるハウジング41と、車体下部及びハウジングの下部にそれぞれ揺動可能に接続され車幅方向にほぼ沿って延在するロワアーム52とを備える車両1に設けられる整流装置を、車輪の前方側に設けられ、空気を噴出して車輪のロワアーム側の領域に下流側が上流側に対して車幅方向内側となるように車両前後方向に対して傾斜して流れる気流S1を形成する空気噴出手段60を備える構成とする。【選択図】図2
