In addition,, can reduce the opening diameter of other parts that do not have recess 32A of opening portion 32, guarantee the area of contact between mounting plate 3 and the pump lip part 22 thus as much as possible because recess 32A is provided with this mode.Therefore, can prevent to enlarge the diameter of mounting plate 3 and pump lip part 22 in order to ensure the contact area between mounting plate 3 and the pump lip part 22.
In the enlarged-diameter that has prevented mounting plate 3 and pump lip part 22 as stated; The result; The part of the formation recess 32A of the opening portion 31 in the mounting plate 3 has less being used to and is received in the zone that the side of contact of top box portion 12 and pump lip part 22 upwards pressure; Making the rigidity of this part become littler than other parts, is disadvantageous for producing necessary surface pressure therefore.
In order to solve this inferior position; The present invention is constructed such that in the joining portion that engages through bolt 9B and each bolt-inserting hole 33A to 33E, and the interval P1 that is formed with interval between the adjacent bond portion of recess 32A therebetween and is between bolt-inserting hole 33A and the 33E is set to shorter than the interval P2 between the adjacent bolt-inserting hole that does not have recess 32A therebetween.
Therefore, the position that can in mounting plate 3, have narrow 32 and recess 32A firmly is pressed in sealing component 10 between pump lip part 22 and the top box portion 12, to guarantee the sealability between pump lip part 22 and top box portion 12.
In fuel pump mounting structural according to this mode of execution, narrow 32 of pump lip part 22 with recess 32A be configured to not with Fig. 5 B in shadow region 22C (zone that does not have recess) overlapping.Therefore; Even the power owing to the above-below direction of the vibration of vehicle etc. is applied to power connector 23 and fuel connector 24 as connector element; And also be applied to the bunch 7 and fuel pipe 8 that are connected to power connector 23 and fuel connector 24, also can prevent to be applied directly to and be formed with narrow 32 part with recess 32A owing to the pressure of vibration.
As a result, can prevent sealability deterioration when the vehicle operating that is provided with this fuel pump mounting structural.
(other mode of executions)
In above-mentioned disclosing; Though fuel pump mounting structural according to the embodiment of the present invention has been described; It should be noted that; Can the present invention be limited to this to the explanation of above-mentioned mode of execution and a part and the accompanying drawing of above-mentioned mode of execution, and realize or other mode of executions and the embodiment that obtain roughly the same purpose and/or effect all within the scope of the invention.In addition, also should be noted that the combination of the inventive features that scope of the present invention is not limited to be defined by the claims, but limit each expectation combination of the concrete characteristic in disclosed all characteristics.
For example; In the above-described embodiment; Though the peristome at the opening portion 31 of mounting plate 3 is provided with a recess 32A, in the modification mode of execution, can be configured to across a pair of opening opposing edge place of opening portion 31 recess 32B is set like Fig. 8 (8A, 8B) be shown in.
In above-mentioned modified example; Between adjacent bolt-inserting hole 33A that has narrow 32 and recess 32B therebetween in the mounting plate 3 and the 33F and between adjacent bolt-inserting hole 33C and the 33D each be P1 at interval, and P2 is short at interval than between the adjacent bolt-inserting hole that does not have recess 32B therebetween each.Recess 32B in this modified example can have the recessed amount littler than the recessed amount of the recess 32A of aforementioned embodiments, and this provides advantage to the excessive minimizing that prevents the contact area between mounting plate 3 and the pump lip part 32.
In the structure that a pair of recess 32B is set, can make between the adjacent bond portion that has recess 32B therebetween interval P1 more near or do not get involved each P2 at interval between the adjacent bond portion of narrow 32 and recess 32B no better than therebetween.
