A cover for a fuel tank includes a flange unit configured to close an opening of the fuel tank and a joint member movably coupled to the flange unit. The joint member is configured to move in an upward/downward direction relative to the flange unit. Two side tubular portions extend from the flange unit in the upward/downward direction and are positioned side-by-side. Column portions extend in the upward/downward direction from the joint member. The column portions are moveably disposed in the side tubular portions. The column portions are configured to move in the upward/downward direction relative to the side tubular portions. The side tubular portions are connected to each other via a rear side wall and a front side wall of a center tubular portion disposed between the side tubular portions.

A total dimension of spacing dimensions of a gap provided by a metal rod on a side opposite to a metal housing in a first assembling structure and a second assembling structure is set to be larger than a difference in a thermal expansion amount between a resin lid main body and the metal housing in a reference radial direction when a temperature exceeds a reference temperature. A total dimension of each of a spacing dimension of a gap provided by the metal rod on a side toward the metal housing and a spacing dimension between a resin protrusion and the metal housing in the first assembling structure and the second assembling structure is set to be larger than a difference in a thermal shrinkage amount between the resin lid main body and the metal housing in the reference radial direction when a temperature falls below the reference temperature.

An apparatus and a method are provided for an inline fuel pump for conveying liquid fuel from a fuel source to an intake of an internal combustion engine. The inline fuel pump operates with various fuels, such as gasoline, diesel, biodiesel, gasoline-ethanol blends, as well as commonly used fuel additives. The inline fuel pump comprises an inlet placed into fluid communication with the fuel source. An outlet of the inline fuel pump is placed into fluid communication with the intake. An electric motor coupled with an internal liquid pump convey liquid fuel from the inlet to the outlet. The electric motor and the internal liquid pump are housed within a sealed case configured to protect the electric motor and the liquid pump from an exterior environment. Power leads convey electrical power from an electrical system of the vehicle to the electric motor.

A fuel supply device includes a fuel pump, a sub-tank configured to store a fuel, a leakage passage configured to return a part of a pressurized fuel discharged from the fuel pump into the sub-tank, and a fuel filter disposed at a bottom part of the sub-tank. The fuel filter includes a filter member that is configured to filter the fuel to be suctioned into the fuel pump. A downstream end of the leakage passage includes a linear passage part linearly extending from a position above the filter member toward the filter member. The fuel supply device also includes a direction change wall part configured to change the flow direction of the pressurized fuel jetted from the linear passage part so as to prevent the pressurized fuel from directly impacting the filter member.

Provided are a controller integrated type fuel pump module for preventing thermal deformation of a flange and a manufacturing method thereof. An embodiment of the present invention is directed to providing a controller integrated type fuel pump module for preventing thermal deformation of a flange that minimizes heat transfer from a board to the flange through a thermal insulation effect by an air gap by improving a structure in a storage part of a controller to form the air gap between the board and the flange in the controller formed integrally with a fuel pump module, and a manufacturing method thereof.

A fuel pump includes: an electric motor; a pump stage drivable by the electric motor; and a fuel pump housing configured to accommodate the electric motor and the pump stage. The fuel pump housing has a first housing part configured to accommodate the electric motor and a second housing part configured to accommodate the pump stage. One or both of the first housing part and the second housing part are made of a conductive plastic adapted to dissipate static charges to a ground potential.

A fixing sleeve firmly fixes a plug to a socket. The fixing sleeve has two half-shells, which delimit a receiving space for receiving at least one part of the plug. A fastener is arranged adjacently to a plug-side end face of the fixing sleeve. An injector assembly includes an injector with a socket, a cable fastened to the plug, and the fixing sleeve.

A fuel supply apparatus mounted in a fuel tank has a fuel pump portion for sucking a fuel stored in the fuel tank and then discharging the fuel to the outside. The fuel supply apparatus includes a harness that is connected with an external power source; a power-sending connector portion a power-sending connector portion that is provided in a harness and has power-sending terminals having respective spring portions, a power-receiving connector portion that is provided in a fuel pump portion and has power-receiving terminals to be connected with the power-sending terminals, respectively, when contact pressure based on elastic force of the spring portions, as elastic portions, is provided thereto, and an insulator that covers at least base portions of the power-receiving terminals and at least parts of the spring portions of the power-sending terminals when the power-receiving terminals are connected with the power-sending terminals.

A fuel pump cover assembly and method for a vehicle includes a cover arranged over the vehicle fuel pump for inhibiting water access to the vehicle fuel pump and at least one clip securing the cover to a feed line for the vehicle fuel pump.
