Circumferential flow type liquid pump

摘要

A circumferential flow type liquid pump has, and a pump casing including a pump base and a pump cover. The pump casing rotatably supports an impeller and defines an elongated arcuate pump flow path along the outer periphery of the impeller and a suction inlet and a discharge outlet at both ends of the pump flow path. A plurality of gas venting holes are formed in a sliding surface of the pump cover along the pump flow path and communicate with the outside of the pump. Bubbles formed in the fuel in the pump flow path are positively discharged out of the pump casing assembly, and no vapor lock is caused.
