1. An engine noise reduction device to receive air flow from a first air inlet and at least a second air inlet, where the first air inlet enters an engine chamber in a first direction, the second air inlet enters the engine chamber in a second direction, and the first direction differs from the second direction, the device comprising:
- a split-type noise absorbing portion having an air passage of a first length, the split-type noise absorbing portion provided to oppose and receive an air flow from the first air inlet portion; and
a cell-type noise absorbing portion having an air passage of a second length, the cell-type noise absorbing portion provided to oppose and receive an air flow from the second air inlet portion, wherein the first length is greater than the second length.

19. A system for delivering air to an engine room of a construction machine, the system comprising:
-
a fan;
an air flow passage positioned forward of the fan;
a first air inlet and at least a second air inlet, wherein each air inlet is in fluid communication with the air flow passage, and the fan operatively draws air through each air inlet and into the air flow passage; and
an air flow stopping plate positioned within the air flow passage, wherein said air flow stopping plate divides the air flow passage into a first passage, through which air from the first air inlet passes, and a second passage, through which air from at least the second air inlet passes, and prevents a combination of the air from the first passage and air from the second passage, and wherein the first air inlet is oriented at substantially a right angle relative to at least the second air inlet.
