The invention relates to a device with an air inlet manifold (1) and an air mass sensor arrangement (2) inserted radially therein, the insertion opening (3) of which is arranged perpendicular to the airflow direction (6) in the manifold (1). A wing-shaped shielding body (7) is arranged before the insertion opening (3) such as to cover the insertion opening (3) and guarantee a streamline airflow to the insertion opening (3) and the essentially straight surface thereof, transverse to the flow direction of the air flowing over said surface, is oriented perpendicular to the insertion direction of the air mass sensor arrangement (2).

1. A device, comprising:an air intake manifold and an air mass sensor arrangement which is inserted radially therein and whose inlet opening is oriented perpendicularly to an air flow direction in the intake manifold;a shielding body being arranged upstream of the inlet opening such that its projection onto the inlet opening covers the inlet opening, whereinthe shielding body is wing-shaped and ensures a non-separating air flow to the inlet opening, and has an essentially rectilinear surface running transversely to a flow direction of the air flowing over its surface and is oriented perpendicularly to an insertion direction of the air mass sensor arrangement.2. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the shielding body has an arched profile along the flow direction of the air flowing over its surface.3. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein margins of the shielding body which run essentially in the flow direction of the air flowing in the intake manifold are provided with side walls which laterally define a top side and/or underside of the shielding body for avoiding marginal swirls.4. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein a leading edge of the shielding body, the leading edge being oriented in the flow direction of the air flowing in the intake manifold, is beveled or rounded off, so that the air flow makes effective contact.5. The device as claimed in claim 4, wherein the edge of the shielding body which is oriented the in flow direction of the air flowing in the intake manifold lies under the inlet opening of the air mass sensor arrangement and downstream of the inlet opening relative to the air flow direction.6. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the shielding body is formed in one piece with the intake manifold.7. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the shielding body has four corners and has holders at the four corners, and front holders and rear holders are arranged laterally offset from one another.8. The device as claimed in claim 7, wherein the rear holders are arranged obliquely to the air flow direction such that the air flow is directed toward a center of the intake manifold.9. The device as claimed in claim 7, wherein the front holders, at a trailing edge, run obliquely to the air flow direction toward a wall of the intake manifold.10. The device as claimed in claim 1, wherein a transversely running web or a transverse groove is provided on the air inflow side of the air mass sensor arrangement, so that water striking the sensor arrangement side cannot run to the inlet opening.
