<p>In a fuel supply device for vehicles, a sub-tank (5, 205) is arranged within a fuel tank (1). At least one intake port (6, 206) is provided in a bottom wall (5a, 205a) of the sub-tank. A check valve (15, 215) is arranged at the intake port. A fuel pump (9, 209) is arranged within the sub-tank to supply fuel from the sub-tank to an engine. A fuel return pipe (11, 211) is provided through which a part of the fuel supplied through the fuel supply pipe is returned into the sub-tank. A jet pump (12, 212) is connected to the fuel return pipe so as to deliver the fuel within the fuel tank into the sub-tank through at least one suction port (14, 214) of the jet pump by using fluid energy of the fuel returned into the sub-tank. A pipe (105) is connected to a fuel discharge port (13) of the jet pump, and extends to an upper location within the sub-tank. The jet pump is constituted by a groove (102, 302) forming a flat fluid control device arranged between the fuel pump and the bottom wall of the sub-tank. The groove is formed therein with the fuel suction port (14, 214) and the fuel discharge port (13, 213) of the jet pump.</p> |
