Abstract:
A fuel pump unit includes a suction filter and a fuel pump. The fuel pump includes: a rotatable shaft placed along a rotational axis; a rotor portion that rotates in response to rotation of the rotatable shaft; a suction hole portion, through which the fuel is suctioned into an inside of a rotor receiving chamber; and an outer peripheral wall that surrounds the suction hole portion. The suction filter includes: a filter element that filters the fuel and conducts the filtered fuel into an inside space; and a columnar hole portion having an inner peripheral wall, while the outer peripheral wall and the inner peripheral wall are fitted with each other, so that the columnar hole portion communicates between the inside space and the suction hole portion. The columnar hole portion is placed such that the rotational axis extends on an inner side of the inner peripheral wall.

Claim (Index 8):
A fuel pump unit comprising:\n a suction filter that is configured to filter fuel; and a fuel pump that is configured to suction the filtered fuel, which is filtered through the suction filter, wherein: the fuel pump includes:\n a rotatable shaft that is placed along a rotational axis and is configured to be rotated; \n a rotor portion that is received in a rotor receiving chamber and is configured to rotate in response to rotation of the rotatable shaft; \n a suction hole portion, through which the fuel is suctioned into an inside of the rotor receiving chamber; and \n an outer peripheral wall that surrounds the suction hole portion; \n the suction filter includes:\n a filter element that is configured to filter the fuel and conduct the filtered fuel into an inside space of the filter element; and \n a columnar hole portion that has an inner peripheral wall and is configured in a columnar hole form, wherein the outer peripheral wall and the inner peripheral wall are opposed to each other and are fitted with each other, so that the columnar hole portion communicates between the inside space and the suction hole portion; \n the columnar hole portion is placed such that the rotational axis extends on an inner side of the inner peripheral wall; the fuel pump is surrounded by the inner peripheral wall at an inside of the columnar hole portion and further includes a surface, in which the suction hole portion opens; and the suction filter further includes an opposing wall that projects radially inward from the inner peripheral wall and is opposed to the surface in an axial direction.
