Abstract

An electric vacuum pump includes: a motor part and a pump part placed in a case, and a cover member closing the case from a pump part side. The cover member includes: a suction port for sucking a fluid from pump outside into the pump part; a silencer part including a space part communicating with a discharge outlet of the pump part; and a discharge port for discharging a fluid ejected from the pump part to pump outside. The suction port has an end portion placed in sealingly contact with the pump part to hermetically communicate with a suction inlet of the pump part. The discharge port is formed with a throat part.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application is based upon and claims the benefit of priority from the prior Japanese Patent Application No. 2012-236367 filed on Oct. 26, 2012, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The present invention relates to a vacuum pump for generating negative pressure to be used in a brake booster of a vehicle such as a motorcar.[0004]2. Related Art[0005]A brake device for vehicle is provided with a brake booster for amplifying a braking force by utilizing negative pressure in an intake pipe (“intake-pipe negative pressure”) of an engine. In recent years, pumping loss is reduced in response to demands for low-fuel consumption and thus the negative pressure in the intake pipe tends to decrease. Furthermore, for a hybrid vehicle, an electric vehicle, or a vehicle with an idling stop function, there is a case where the intake-pipe negative pressure of a...
