The fuel that has entered the fuel pump 43 from the suction port 91 through the suction filter 92 as indicated by the arrow c is shown by the arrow from the discharge port 81 of the fuel pump. The fuel can flow more smoothly to the fuel outlet 83 by the action of the guide surface 84 that inclines so as to enter the fuel passage 82 as indicated by d and go from the discharge port 81 toward the fuel outlet 83. When the fuel pressure in the fuel passage 82 rises above a predetermined pressure, this fuel flows through the relief valve 88 as shown by an arrow e.

燃料ポンプの吐出口８１から吐出した燃料は、燃料の通路８２に傾斜させて配置したガイド面８４にガイドされてゆるやかに向きを変え燃料供給管８５に入る。
燃料はガイド面８４によりゆるやかに向きを変え、円滑に流れ燃料供給管８５に入るため、流れの乱れは少ない。The fuel discharged from the discharge port 81 of the fuel pump is guided by a guide surface 84 arranged to be inclined to the fuel passage 82 and gradually changes its direction and enters the fuel supply pipe 85.
The fuel gently changes its direction by the guide surface 84 and smoothly flows into the fuel supply pipe 85, so that there is little disturbance in the flow.

また、リリーフ弁８８を燃料ポンプケース８０と一体化したので、リリーフ弁８８関連の追加部品を不要にし、制約の多い燃料ポンプケース８０廻りのスペースを節減することができる。  Further, since the relief valve 88 is integrated with the fuel pump case 80, additional parts related to the relief valve 88 are not required, and the space around the fuel pump case 80 with many restrictions can be saved.

さらにまた、燃料ポンプの吐出口８１から吐出した燃料が円滑に燃料出口８３に向かうように傾斜させたガイド面８４は、燃料ポンプケース８０の壁面１０４を傾斜させることにより形成した。
燃料ポンプケース８０の壁面１０４を傾斜させることによりガイド面８４を形成したので、追加部材を準備すること無く燃料の通路８２内の燃料を円滑に流すことができる。Furthermore, the guide surface 84 that is inclined so that the fuel discharged from the discharge port 81 of the fuel pump smoothly moves toward the fuel outlet 83 is formed by inclining the wall surface 104 of the fuel pump case 80.
Since the guide surface 84 is formed by inclining the wall surface 104 of the fuel pump case 80, the fuel in the fuel passage 82 can flow smoothly without preparing an additional member.

図７は図３の別実施例図であり、燃料ポンプケース８０の上に固定部材１０１を載せて、締付けナット１０２により燃料ポンプケース８０を固定したことを示す。
本図において、締付けナット１０２による締付け箇所を８箇所としたが、必要に応じて締付けナット１０２の個数を変更することも可能である。
また、ケース取付けブラケット９６Ｂの上面１０７Ｂには、取付け穴に沿って下方に段差を持つ段部２０１を備え、さらに水抜き通路２０２を備えた。FIG. 7 is a diagram showing another embodiment of FIG. 3 and shows that the fixing member 101 is placed on the fuel pump case 80 and the fuel pump case 80 is fixed by the tightening nut 102.
In this figure, the number of tightening nuts 102 is eight, but the number of tightening nuts 102 can be changed as necessary.
Further, the upper surface 107B of the case mounting bracket 96B is provided with a step part 201 having a step downward along the mounting hole, and further provided with a water drain passage 202.

図８は図４の別実施例図であり、燃料タンク４２の上側に燃料ポンプケース８０が嵌まるようにケース取付けブラケット９６Ｂを設け、ケース取付けブラケット９６Ｂにサブブラケット９７Ｂを介してボルト９８を取付けたことを示す。  FIG. 8 is a diagram showing another embodiment of FIG. 4, and a case mounting bracket 96B is provided on the upper side of the fuel tank 42 so that the fuel pump case 80 is fitted, and a bolt 98 is attached to the case mounting bracket 96B via a sub bracket 97B. It shows that.

図９は本発明の別実施例に係るサブブラケットの矢視図であり、１１６はサブブラケット９７Ｂの脚部１１６、９８はボルトを示す。
図に示すように、ブラケットの脚部１１６の間にあってボルト９８の下方の一箇所に水抜き通路２０２を配置した。
別実施例によれば、ポンプを低く配置することができることから、フロアをフラット形状にし易くなる。また、段差部の水抜きも確実にできる。FIG. 9 is an arrow view of a sub bracket according to another embodiment of the present invention. Reference numeral 116 denotes a leg 116 and 98 of the sub bracket 97B.
As shown in the figure, a drainage passage 202 is disposed at one location below the bolt 98 between the bracket legs 116.
According to another embodiment, the floor can be easily flattened because the pump can be arranged low. In addition, water can be reliably removed from the stepped portion.
