The end and the insertion portion 111 of the holding member 11 are directed toward the fuel tank. The inner direction of i is spaced apart from the cover member 1G by a predetermined size. That is, the 15 side is highlighted. The support member 16 is inserted with a magazine I as a biasing member, and the spring 17 elastically presses the cover member 1 and the sub-tank in a manner of being separated from each other. The cover member 10 and the sub-tank 15 are attached to the cover member 1 The axis direction of the crucible, that is, the upper and lower directions of the ^1 map reciprocates. Therefore, even if the fuel tank 1 made of resin containing the fuel supply device i 1 is swollen or contracted due to a change in internal pressure due to a change in temperature or a change in the amount of fuel, the sub tank can be made by the elastic pressure of the spring 17. The sub-tank i5a of the sub-tank 15 is constantly pushed to the inner wall of the fuel tank bottom la of the fuel tank 1. The sub tank 15 1 is owed with a fuel pump 18 that sucks in the fuel in the fuel tank i and sucks in and out the fuel in the sub tank 15, a suction transition unit 19 that filters the fuel sucked by the fuel pump 18, and a filtered fuel spring 18 The sent fuel is sent out of the filter 20. In the second figure, the fuel pump 18 is placed in the sub-tank 15 with the fuel suction side as the lower side, and the motor unit (not shown) is housed inside. The impeller (not shown) sucks the fuel in the sub-tank 15 and pressurizes it. The fuel pressurized by the fuel pump 18 is sent to the pressure regulator 2 to be sent to the pressure regulator 21 after being sent out of the filter 2 to remove the foreign matter. The fuel is supplied to the pressure regulator 21, and the fuel system is adjusted to a predetermined pressure, and is passed through the bellows tube. It is supplied to the delivery pipe 12. Further, the fuel in the fuel tank 1 is supplied from the delivery pipe 12 to the outside of the fuel tank 1. The suction filter 19 is connected to the fuel suction port of the fuel pump 18 to remove a large foreign matter contained in the fuel pump 18 from the fuel sucked from the sub tank 15. The jet pump 23 that supplies fuel to the sub tank 15 is attached to the outer side of the sub tank 15 and pushes the fuel tank by suction pressure! The fuel inside is supplied to the sub-tank 15, and the suction pressure is generated by discharging the remaining fuel discharged from the pressure regulator 21 to the nozzle of the illustrated population. Thereby, even if the fuel in the fuel tank 1 is reduced, the sub tank 15 is filled with fuel. A fuel gauge is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the field tank 15, and the fuel gauge μ has a sensing H portion 25, an arm portion 26, and a floating portion 27 attached to the arm portion 26.
