<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel feeder which easily couples a pressure regulator with a jet pump when assembling a pump module to a sub tank, and requires no pipe in coupling the pressure regulator with the jet pump. <P>SOLUTION: A first rib and a second rib 48 are formed on a lid part 36 of a filter case 32. A fuel inlet 72 of the jet pump 70 is formed in an inner side of a bottom part of the sub tank 20. An inner circumferential surface 73 of the fuel inlet 72 is contraction-tapered toward a direction in which a fuel outlet 61 of the pressure regulator 60 is coupled. When a pump module is assembled to the sub tank 20, the fuel outlet 61 of the pressure regulator 60 is guided by the inner circumferential surface 73 of the fuel inlet 72 of the jet pump 70, and coupled with the fuel inlet 72. The first rib aligns the pump module to the sub tank 20. The second rib 48 positions the pump module in the rotational direction with respect to the sub tank 20. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO</p> |
