And curved in a convex shape. Since the outer peripheral portions 20a, 16a and the inner peripheral portions 20b, 16b are connected by such intermediate portions 20c, 16c, the discharge end portions 20, 16 as a whole are close to the shapes of both gears 30, 40. Since the discharge of the fuel into the discharge passage 19 starts smoothly, the pump efficiency is increased.
- the suction side end portions 22 and 14 have a line symmetrical shape with respect to the discharge side end portions 20 and 16. Because of the suction side end portions 22 and 14, the outer peripheral portions 20 a and 16 a and the inner peripheral portions 20 b and 16 b of the discharge side end portions 20 and 16 are reliably moved away from the suction side end portions 22 and 14. The effect of suppressing fuel leakage is enhanced.
- the processing tool 72 that rotates and cuts into a circular shape is used for the outline of the discharge passage 19 including the discharge side end 20 or the discharge groove 15 including the discharge side end 16.
- the discharge passage 19 or the discharge groove passage 15 is formed by circularly moving in a single stroke so as to form an outline.
- the fuel pump 100 in which the outer peripheral portion 20a or 16a along the inner teeth 42a and the inner peripheral portion 20b or 16b along the outer teeth 34a are formed can be easily manufactured.
- productivity can be improved by forming the suction groove path 21 or the suction path 13 in the same manner.
- the fuel pump 100 manufactured in this way as the pump chamber 60 starts to shrink, the fuel starts to be smoothly discharged into the discharge passage 19, so that the pulsation is suppressed and both the gears 30 and 40 are smoothly moved. Can be rotated. Further, the outer peripheral portions 20 a and 16 a and the inner peripheral portions 20 b and 16 b of the discharge side end portions 20 and 16 are spaced away from the suction side end portions 22 and 14 in the circumferential direction. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the fuel from leaking from the discharge passage 19 to the suction groove 21 via the sliding surface 18d or from the discharge groove 15 to the suction passage 13 via the sliding surface 12b. As described above, the fuel pump 100 with high pump efficiency can be easily manufactured.
- the curvature radius Rm and the curvature radius Rt do not have to coincide with each other in one guide path. Further, the curvature radii Rm and Rt may not coincide with the cutting radius Rc of the processing tool 72.
- the intermediate portions 20 c and 16 c connecting the outer peripheral portions 20 a and 16 a and the inner peripheral portions 20 b and 16 b are concave toward the suction side end portions 22 and 14. It does not have to be curved.
- straight portions may be included in the intermediate portions 20c and 16c.
- the suction side end portions 22 and 14 do not have to be line symmetrical with respect to the discharge side end portions 20 and 16.
- the suction side end portions 22 and 14 may include straight portions.
- the passages 13 and 19 and the grooves 15 and 21 may be formed by a method other than cutting (for example, forging).
- a reinforcing rib 18e that reinforces the pump casing 18 by straddling the discharge passage 19 may be provided in the approximate center of the discharge passage 19, as shown in FIG.
- the fuel pump 100 may suck and discharge gasoline other than light oil or liquid fuel based thereon as fuel.
