[0002] In the design of fuel pumps, the filter element plays a crucial role. The main function of the filter element is to filter out impurities and particulate matter in the fuel, preventing these contaminants from entering the engine's fuel injection system, thereby protecting the engine from damage and improving the purity and combustion efficiency of the fuel. However, there are some problems in the design and use of existing fuel pump filtering devices. In particular, during the driving process of the automobile, especially on bumpy and uneven roads, the filter element support structure in the fuel pump filtering device is prone to impact and vibration, causing the filter element to loosen or be damaged. Once the filter element fails, it will not be able to effectively filter impurities in the fuel, causing impure fuel to enter the engine, which not only accelerates the wear of the engine, but also may cause fuel system failure, and in severe cases, even cause the engine to stall or be damaged. Therefore, it is necessary to solve the above technical problems. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
