The rear cover has an end face on the side of the cam ring, which is formed with a suction port. A seal member is arranged in a chamber formed between a pump housing and the cam ring and for dividing the chamber into two portions that define first and second working chambers. A connection groove and terminal groove are formed in the end face of the rear cover to provide fluid communication between the suction port and the second working chamber.
