In addition, because recess 32A is arranged in like fashion, the opening diameter not having other parts of recess 32A of opening portion 32 can be reduced, guarantee the area of contact between mounting plate 3 and pump lip part 22 thus as much as possible.Therefore, it is possible to prevent the diameter expanding mounting plate 3 and pump lip part 22 in order to ensure the contact area between mounting plate 3 and pump lip part 22.
While the enlarged-diameter preventing mounting plate 3 and pump lip part 22 as mentioned above, result, the part of the formation recess 32A of the opening portion 31 in mounting plate 3 has less of being received in the region that top box portion 12 upwards pressure with the side of contact of pump lip part 22, make the rigidity of this part become less than other parts, the surface pressure therefore for generation necessity is disadvantageous.
In order to solve this inferior position, the present invention is constructed such that in the joining portion engaged by bolt 9B and each bolt-inserting hole 33A to 33E, and the interval P2 between the interval between the neighbouring joint parts being formed with recess 32A therebetween and the interval P1 between bolt-inserting hole 33A and 33E are set to than the adjacent bolt-inserting hole therebetween without recess 32A is short.
Therefore, sealing component 10 is firmly pressed between pump lip part 22 and top box portion 12 by the position can in mounting plate 3 with narrow portion 32 and recess 32A, to guarantee the sealability between pump lip part 22 and top box portion 12.
In fuel pump mounting structural according to the present embodiment, the narrow portion 32 of pump lip part 22 and recess 32A are configured to not overlapping with the shadow region 22C (not having the region of recess) in Fig. 5 B.Therefore, even if the power owing to the above-below direction of the vibration etc. of vehicle is applied to power connector 23 as connector element and Fuel connector 24, and be also applied to the bunch 7 and fuel pipe 8 that are connected to power connector 23 and Fuel connector 24, the pressure owing to vibration also can be prevented to be applied directly to the part being formed with narrow portion 32 and recess 32A.
As a result, sealability deterioration when the vehicle operating being provided with this fuel pump mounting structural can be prevented.
(other mode of executions)
In above-mentioned disclosing, although described fuel pump mounting structural according to the embodiment of the present invention, it should be noted that, the present invention this be can not be limited to the explanation of above-mentioned mode of execution and a part for above-mentioned mode of execution and accompanying drawing, and other mode of executions of roughly the same object and/or effect and embodiment be realized or obtain all within the scope of the invention.In addition, also it 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 limited by each expectation combination of the specific features in disclosed all features.
Such as, in the above-described embodiment, although arrange a recess 32A at the peristome of the opening portion 31 of mounting plate 3, in embodiment variant, can be configured to as Fig. 8 (8A, 8B) be shown in recess 32B be set across a pair of opening portion 31 relative peristome place.
In above-mentioned modified example, each interval P1 between adjacent bolt patchhole 33A and 33F therebetween with narrow portion 32 and recess 32B in mounting plate 3 and between adjacent bolt patchhole 33C and 33D, than not having therebetween, each interval P2 between the adjacent bolt patchhole of recess 32B is short.Recess 32B in this variant can have the recessed amount less than the recessed amount of the recess 32A of aforementioned embodiments, and this provides advantage to the excessive minimizing of the contact area prevented between mounting plate 3 and pump lip part 32.
In the structure that a pair recess 32B is set, can make to have therebetween interval P1 between the neighbouring joint parts of recess 32B closer to or no better than each interval P2 between the neighbouring joint parts not getting involved narrow portion 32 and recess 32B therebetween.
In addition, in the configuration, although the difference between interval P1 and interval P2 is very little, but, if the positioning relation between the bolt-inserting hole 33A to 33F of mounting plate 3 and each bolt acceptance division 18 in top box portion 12 is inappropriate, can not clamping bolt 9B, can not locating effect be obtained thus.
In addition, according in the fuel pump mounting structural of above-mentioned mode of execution, because bolt acceptance division 18 is arranged on fuel tank 1 side, thus bolt 9B inserts from the top of mounting plate 3 to be screwed into each bolt acceptance division 18.But the juncture at the joining portion between fuel tank side and mounting plate 3 is not limited to which.That is, bolt can be arranged on fuel tank 1 side in the mode projected upwards, and can adopt nut fastening structure under the state of each bolt-inserting hole inserting mounting plate 3.
In addition, according in the fuel pump mounting structural of above-mentioned mode of execution, although pump lip part 22 and mounting plate 3 are configured to define as circle, the invention is not restricted to this structure, they the structure of based on fuel case 1 can be formed as various shape.
