The claims below are in addition to those above.
All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
1. A cooling structure for an engine exhaust system, comprising:
a deflector installed underneath the exhaust system in an intakeexhaust reverse engine in which an engine intake system is disposed toward a cooling fan placed at a front of the vehicle, and the engine exhaust system is disposed toward a dash panel; and
a space formed in front of said deflector communicating between an engine compartment, where said exhaust system is located, and an outside of the vehicle bottom portion.
2. The structure as defined in claim 1, wherein said deflector has a base, which faces the front of the vehicle, and said space is formed at least in part by an under-cover that encloses a bottom surface of the engine compartment.
3. The structure as defined in claim 2, wherein said engine is installed at the bottom thereof with a sub-frame having a hollowed quadrilateral figure, said deflector is fixed at a rear segment of said sub-frame, and said under-cover is installed at a bottom of said sub-frame.
4. The structure as defined in claim 3, wherein said deflector includes:
lower wings that extend from a bottom of said base and couple to a vertical surface of the rear segment of said sub-frame; and
a rear wing that is horizontally formed at a rear of said base for being coupled to a horizontal surface of the rear segment of said sub-frame.
5. The structure as defined in claim 4, wherein said lower wings and said rear wing are conjoined perpendicularly such that said deflector can be fixed at said sub-frame with said lower wings and rear wing covering an edge of said sub-frame simultaneously.
6. The structure as defined in claim 4, wherein said base is formed at both sides thereof with guides that protrude toward the front of the vehicle.
