Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of fuel pump technology, and specifically relates to a fuel pump assembly. Background Technology

[0002] Fuel pump: Fuel pumps are characterized by simple structure, compact size, good suction, large fuel delivery volume, low noise, stable operation, high efficiency, and long service life. They are suitable for the lubrication or cooling systems of various machine tools, internal combustion engines, diesel engines, ships, and other mechanical equipment. The electric fuel pump assembly is installed on the car's fuel tank and plays the role of supplying fuel to the car in the fuel supply system. However, because it is a complete system, fuel filtration is particularly important. If filtration is not performed for a long time, it can easily cause the fuel pump to become clogged, affecting the normal use of the electric fuel pump. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in the prior art by providing a fuel pump assembly with a filter structure that improves service life.

[0004] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: A fuel pump assembly, comprising a fuel pump assembly having a cavity, a plunger and a return spring being disposed within the fuel pump assembly, and a fuel inlet end being disposed at the bottom of the fuel pump assembly for fuel inlet, characterized in that a filter element for filtering is disposed on the fuel pump assembly and located at the fuel inlet end, a sliding member being disposed on the fuel pump assembly that can slide up and down at the fuel inlet end, a plurality of balls being disposed between the filter element and the sliding member, and each ball having a rolling groove inside the fuel pump assembly for rolling, a first groove matching the balls being disposed on the outer wall of the filter element, a second groove matching the balls being disposed on the inner wall of the sliding member, the filter element being composed of a filter ring and a filter screen, and a fixing part being disposed on the inner wall of the fuel pump assembly, the upper end of the filter ring abutting against the lower end of the fixing part.

[0005] In the aforementioned fuel pump assembly, a stepped groove is provided on the fuel pump assembly at the fuel inlet end, and a connecting spring is provided between the sliding member and the stepped groove for the sliding member to reset.

[0006] In one of the aforementioned fuel pump assemblies, a mounting bracket for fixing is provided on the fuel pump assembly.

[0007] Compared with existing technologies, this fuel pump assembly improves the service life of the fuel pump assembly by installing a removable filter at the fuel inlet end of the fuel pump assembly to filter the fuel entering the fuel pump assembly. Attached Figure Description

[0008] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model.

[0009] Figure 2 This is a cross-sectional structural diagram of the present invention.

[0010] In the diagram, 1. Oil pump assembly; 2. Plunger; 3. Return spring; 4. Oil inlet; 5. Filter element; 6. Sliding element; 7. Ball bearing; 8. Slot 1; 9. Slot 2; 10. Filter ring; 11. Filter screen; 12. Fixing part; 13. Connecting spring; 14. Fixing bracket. Detailed Implementation

[0011] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0012] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, this fuel pump assembly includes a fuel pump assembly 1, which has a cavity. A plunger 2 and a return spring 3 are disposed within the fuel pump assembly 1. An inlet end 4 for fuel intake is disposed at the bottom of the fuel pump assembly 1. A filter element 5 for filtering is disposed on the fuel pump assembly 1 at the inlet end 4. A sliding member 6 that can slide up and down at the inlet end 4 is disposed on the fuel pump assembly 1. A plurality of balls 7 are disposed between the filter element 5 and the sliding member 6, and each ball 7 has a rolling groove inside the fuel pump assembly 1 for rolling. A first groove 8 that mates with the balls 7 is disposed on the outer wall of the filter element 5, and a second groove 9 that mates with the balls 7 is disposed on the inner wall of the sliding member 6.
