A strainer for a fuel pump according to the present invention includes: a communicating pipe including a flow path formed to communicate with a fuel inlet of the fuel pump; a filter including an internal space in which a fuel flows and coupled to the communicating pipe so that the internal space communicates with the communicating pipe; and a rib disposed in the filter and coupled to the communicating pipe, in which the filter includes a first filtering portion extending in a length direction with respect to the communicating pipe, a connecting portion extending in a width direction at an edge of the first filtering portion, and a second filtering portion extending in the length direction at the connecting portion and spaced apart from the first filtering portion in the width direction. Therefore, the strainer may have a relatively large filtering area and a small size.

A filter assembly comprises a housing defining an internal volume. An opening is defined at a bottom end of the housing. An adaptor is coupled to the bottom end of the housing. A filter element is disposed within the housing. The filter element comprises a filter media defining a central channel, and an endcap coupled to a filter media bottom end of the filter media proximate to the adaptor. A sealing member is disposed around the adaptor, the sealing member configured to form an axial seal between the endcap and the housing.

A fluid filtering device may have a body that include a fluid collection portion, a filtering chamber, and a passthrough bore. The fluid collection portion may be configured to collect fluid supplied to the fluid filtering device. The filtering chamber may be in fluid communication with the fluid collection portion. The filtering chamber may have an entrance portion, an exit portion, and a fluid filter. The filtering chamber may be configured to filter the fluid supplied to the fluid filtering device. The passthrough bore may be in fluid communication with the filtering chamber and may be separate from the fluid collection portion such that fluid flowing from the fluid collection portion flows into the filtering chamber, and the fluid flowing from the filtering chamber flows into the passthrough bore.

A filter insert for use in a three-stage fuel filter. The components inside the filter medium include a support dome, a coalescer, a separator that is affixed to a carrier, and an end disc. The support dome, carrier, and end disc are constructed so that, during the process of assembling the various components of the filter insert, these components are held in the proper position to complete the assembly of the filter insert, without the use of latching mechanisms. The carrier either rests directly on a contour of the support dome and/or forms a seal with an adjacent component, be it the support dome or another component that is in contact with the support dome, and in that way provides sufficient holding power to hold at least the support dome and the carrier along with its separator close to the end disc.
