A fuel feed module for delivering fuel from a fuel tank includes a fuel feed pump and a flange. The fuel feed module is fixable to the fuel tank by the flange. The fuel feed module includes a resistor, which is electrically conductively integrated into a ground path of the fuel feed pump, the resistor being integrated into the flange of the fuel feed module.

A liquid tank having a tank interior space delimited by a tank wall and fillable with liquid, a withdrawal opening; a retention component that delimits a component interior region in the tank interior space; the component volume of the interior region being less than the tank volume; a partition of the retention component permitting a flow of liquid, out of a component exterior region located outside the interior region but inside the tank volume, through the partition into the interior region and presenting a flow resistance to a flow out of the interior region through the partition into the exterior region, in such a way that the partition exhibits a liquid retention capability with respect to surging movements of liquid in the interior region; the withdrawal opening being arranged in such a way that at least as soon as a level falls below a threshold, the partition is arranged between the withdrawal opening and a liquid quantity received in an exterior region of the tank interior space; the retention component is flowthrough-capable at least in portions only unidirectionally from the exterior region into the interior region, but not in the opposite direction.

A fuel pump system of a hybrid vehicle is provided. The fuel pump system prevents a fuel pump from continuing to operate when fuel is exhausted, whereby the fuel pump may be damaged. The pressure of fuel is measured in response to exhaustion of fuel, and when the pressure of fuel is low, fuel is circulated within the fuel pump instead of being supplied to the engine side, thereby preventing the fuel pump from being stuck due to frictional heat.

Provided is a fuel tank of a work vehicle in which fuel can be easily sucked into an engine. The fuel tank includes: a drain port which is open to an outside on a side surface and through which fuel is discharged to the outside; a suction port which is open to the outside on a side surface and has a center positioned lower than a center of the drain port and through which the fuel is sucked by an engine; and a first recess which is formed to be recessed downward with respect to a bottom surface and communicates with the drain port.

A fuel pump includes: an electric motor; a pump stage drivable by the electric motor; a fuel pump housing configured to accommodate the electric motor and the pump stage; and a bracket configured to fasten the fuel pump to a wall. The fuel pump housing includes a plastic first housing part configured to accommodate at least one selected from the group of the electric motor and the pump stage. The first housing part is configured as a single piece with the bracket, the bracket being integral with the first housing part.

An unmanned aerial vehicle has an internal combustion engine, and a fuel and lubrication system comprising a fuelling system for fuelling the engine and a lubrication system for delivering lubricating oil to the engine. The fuelling system comprises a fuel reservoir from which fuel can be delivered to the engine. The fuel reservoir comprises a main tank and a header tank. The lubrication system comprises an oil tank. The oil tank is accommodated internally within the main tank to provide an integrated assembly. The arrangement provides for warming of lubrication oil for the UAV engine using several available heat sources. Further, the arrangement facilitates a configuration and layout intended to minimise or negate any undesirable moments of inertia for the UAV during flight as fuel and oil is consumed.

Methods and systems are provided for a fuel tank comprising a scavenge pump. In one example, a system may include arranging a scavenge pump adjacent to a scavenge inlet, distal to a primary fuel delivery module. The arrangement may allow positive pressure from a fuel pump to force fuel back to the primary fuel delivery module during some vehicle conditions.

A coupling stay includes a support inner peripheral surface extending along a rotational axis and providing radial support to a rotatable shaft portion of a pump unit, which extends along the rotational axis. A support lateral surface extends in a longitudinal direction and provides thrust support to the pump unit. The support inner peripheral surface extends from the support lateral surface in the transverse direction. A lock claw projects from the coupling stay. A lock projection projects from the pump unit and is operable to lock rotation of the pump unit relative to the coupling stay about the rotational axis upon fitting of the lock projection between the support lateral surface and the lock claw. A height of a contact part of the lock projection, which contacts the support lateral surface, is limited to be equal to or lower than the rotational axis.

The present disclosure relates to a fuel tank having a module pot, which forms a first separate fuel reservoir for a fuel pump arranged inside the fuel tank. To prevent a gap in delivery of fuel to supply the first fuel reservoir in certain operating conditions, in particular when there is persistent lateral acceleration, according to the invention, a second separate fuel reservoir arranged separately from the first fuel reservoir inside the fuel tank is proposed, such that fuel is transferred from the second fuel reservoir into the first fuel reservoir at least when a predetermined acceleration level acting on the fuel tank is exceeded.
