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 W 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 inside-deflection means 70 disposed on the lower arm in order to deflect an airstream flowing in from a vehicle longitudinal side so that a speed component to an inner side in the vehicle width direction increases.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3
【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W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、ロワアームに設けられ車両前方側から流入する気流を車幅方向内側への速度成分が増加するよう偏向させる内側偏向手段70を備える構成とする。【選択図】図3
