When the fuel pump motor rotated, the fuel in the fuel tank 34 passed through suction filter 26 and is inhaled in the petrolift.The pressure that sucks the fuel in the petrolift increases, and fuel is discharged by the fuel tap hole of petrolift then.Regulate from the pressure of the fuel of petrolift discharge by pressure regulator 36, fuel is along connecting tube 38 inflow filter housings 22 then.Has foreign matter in the fuel of inflow filter housing 22.These foreign matters may comprise very little material, remove these very little materials by the fuel filter that is contained in the filter housings 22 from fuel, discharge these very little materials then from fuel tap hole 42.The fuel of from fuel tap hole 42, discharging flow through discharge tube 11 and supply engine on the upper surface of pressing plate 10.
When the electronic device 46 and 48 of control module moves (when the switching member of control module is carried out switching), electronic device 46 and 48 produces heats.Be transmitted to the upper end portion of Heat sink 32 by heat sink 44 by electronic device 46 and 48 heats that produce.A plurality of lower ends of Heat sink 32 are passed pressing plate 10 and are stretched in the fuel tank 34, and these lower ends extend near the lower end of fuel supplying device 1.Therefore, the lower end of Heat sink 32 is immersed in the fuel that stores in the fuel tank 34, and the heat that is transmitted to Heat sink 32 is sent in the fuel that stores in the fuel tank 34, thus cooling electronic device 46 and 48.
And the excess fuel of the fuel of discharging from petrolift turns back to the fuel tank 34 by pressure regulator 36.Owing to discharge towards Heat sink 32 from the fuel that pressure regulator 36 turns back to the fuel tank 34,, thereby also can splash, contact cooling heat dissipation plate 32 from the fuel that pressure regulator 36 returns even the fuel quantity in the fuel tank 34 significantly reduces.Therefore effective cooling heat dissipation plate 32.
Can know clearly that from above-mentioned explanation the heat production electronic device 46 of control module and 48 is connected to the upper end of Heat sink 32 by heat sink 44, and the lower end of Heat sink 32 is immersed in the fuel in the fuel tank 34.Therefore, Heat sink 32 can contact with the fuel that stores in the fuel tank 34, and irrelevant with the flow velocity of the fuel of discharging from petrolift, and the heat of electronic device 46 and 48 can be dispersed in the interior fuel of fuel tank 34.Because the heat of control module is dispersed in the fuel in the fuel tank 34, so can suppress to supply to fuel overheated of internal-combustion engine from petrolift.Therefore, can suppress bubble and sneak in the fuel that supplies to motor, so motor can be carried out the burning with enough air fuel ratios.
And, because electronic device can use the area of Heat sink 32 to regulate the cooling capacity that is used for cooling electronic device 46 and 48, so can easily obtain required cooling capacity.And, owing to discharge and discharge towards Heat sink 32 by the excess fuel that pressure regulator 36 returns from petrolift, so even the fuel quantities that store in the fuel tank 34 significantly reduce, cooling heat dissipation plate 32 effectively still.
And, in fuel supplying device 1, the part of filter housings 22 is not set by the outer circumferential side that Heat sink 32 is arranged on shell of fuel pump 30, can prevent that the size of fuel supplying device 1 from radially increasing.Thereby can more easily be installed on the fuel tank 34, the while is cooling electronic device 46 and 48 effectively.
In the above-described embodiments, control module (heat production electronic device particularly) utilizes cooling plate to cool off.Yet the present invention is not limited to this example.For example, can utilize a plurality of cooling rods 64, arrive shown in Figure 20 as Figure 14.

On pressing plate 62 order of installation and control module can use with the embodiment who has described in substantially the same method carry out.That is to say, electronic device 46 and 48, condenser 50 and choking coil 52 at first are connected on the bus bar 56 and (proceed to state shown in Figure 17 from state shown in Figure 16).Then, the upper surface of heat sink 44 is fixed to the lower surface (proceeding to state shown in Figure 180 from state shown in Figure 17) of electronic device 46 and 48.Then, control module is installed on the pressing plate 62, so that the lower surface of heat sink 44 contacts (proceeding to state shown in Figure 19 from state shown in Figure 180) with the upper surface of the head 64b of cooling rod 64.
Under the situation of utilizing a plurality of cooling rods 64, with the space (seeing Figure 18 and Figure 19) between silica gel 68 each cooling rods 64 of injection.Seal border between cooling rod 64 and the pressing plate 62 by silica gel 68 being expelled to space between the cooling rod 64.Preferably, in silica gel 68, use material with high thermal conductivity coefficient.And, can clearly be seen that from Figure 20 in this example, the upper end of circuit housing is by covering 66 sealings.
Under the situation of utilizing a plurality of cooling rods 64, as mentioned above, under the situation of using a plurality of cooling rods 64, compare with the volume of cooling rod 64, can make the contacted area of fuel in cooling rod 64 and the fuel tank bigger.Therefore, even heat sink is made lessly (that is, making the area that cooling rod 64 is set make lessly), still can realize enough cooling capacities.And, can make control module less.
And, with identical among the embodiment who has described, can adopt a kind of structure, in this structure, make the fuel that returns in the pressure regulator fly to cooling rod 64.And the outer circumferential side that the stem 64a of cooling rod 64 can be arranged on shell of fuel pump is not provided with the part of filter housings.
And, in the above-described embodiments, discharge towards Heat sink 32 from the fuel that pressure regulator 36 returns.Yet, can discharge towards the lower surface (position of heat sink 44 is set) of pressing plate 10 equally from the fuel that pressure regulator 36 returns.By this structure, the fuel that returns from pressure regulator 36 also can be used for cooling off effectively control module.

Be connected to control circuit portion 114 near normal pressing plate 110.The top of control circuit portion 114 extended upwardly pressing plate 110, and the bottom of control circuit portion 114 is stretched in the fuel tank 100.The bottom surfaces of control circuit portion 114 is to the fuel tap hole of pressure regulator 112.The fuel of discharging from pressure regulator 112 is discharged to control circuit portion 114.
Housing 105 is connected in the lower surface of pressing plate 110.Petrolift 102 and fuel filter 106 are placed in the housing 105.Electric energy supplies to petrolift 102 by lead 113 from control circuit portion 114.Suction filter 104 is connected on the fuel inlet hole 102a of petrolift 102.Remove bigger foreign matter the fuel of suction filter 104 in being drawn into petrolift 102.Fuel filter 106 is connected on the fuel tap hole 102b of petrolift 102 by fuel channel 103.Fuel filter 106 is removed less foreign matter (promptly less than the foreign matter of removing by suction filter 104) in the fuel of petrolift 102 discharges.Fuel discharge route 108 is connected on the fuel tap hole 106a of fuel filter 106.
In above-mentioned fuel supplying device, when from control circuit portion 114 supply of electrical energy, petrolift 102 operations, and the fuel in the fuel tank 100 sucks the petrolift 102 from fuel inlet hole 102a by suction filter 104.The pressure that sucks the fuel in the petrolift 102 increases, and fuel is discharged from fuel tap hole 102b then.The fuel of discharging from fuel tap hole 102b is removed wherein foreign matter by fuel filter 106, flows along fuel discharge route 108 then.The part of fuel that flows along fuel discharge route 108 supplies to sparger by discharge tube, and remaining fuel enters in the fuel tank 100 by pressure regulator 112.Therefore, present embodiment has the fuel cycle device that comes the fuel in the circulating fuel case 100 by branched bottom 108a and pressure regulator 112.
By fuel and 114 collisions of control circuit portion that pressure regulator 112 is discharged, therefore carry out heat transmission with control circuit portion 114.Thus, cooling is contained in the control module in the control circuit portion 114.When control circuit portion 114 reaches a high temperature, be discharged to the fuel vaporization of control circuit portion 114.When the fuel vaporization of discharging, by steam latent heat cooling control circuit portion 114.Therefore, cooling control circuit portion 114 effectively.
To describe control circuit portion 114 in detail below.Control circuit portion 114 comprises circuit housing 116 and is contained in control module in the circuit housing 116.
Circuit housing 116 is formed by molded of resin material, and the cross section that is box-shaped and has square shape.Connector 118 is formed at the top of circuit housing 116.Connector 118 is connected on external power supply and ECU (electronic controller) (not shown).Connector 130 is formed at the bottom of circuit housing 116.Petrolift 102 is connected in connector 130.Circuit housing 116 is provided with joint 136.The two ends of joint 136 are supported by supporting portion 134, so circuit housing 116 is connected in pressing plate 110.Pressing part 138 is formed on the pressing plate 110, and joint 136 and supporting portion 134 keeps by pressing part 138.Therefore circuit housing 116 firmly is installed on the pressing plate 110.
