Abstract

See full text

An oil pump has a pump body, a pump cover, an outer rotor, and an inner rotor. The pump body includes a rotor chamber, a first inlet port, a first outlet port, a first inlet passage, a first outlet passage, a relief valve, a relief chamber formed on a discharge side of the relief valve, and a first oil return passage formed from the relief chamber to the first inlet passage. The pump cover has a second oil return passage. The first oil return passage is formed in an inner circumferential support wall of the rotor chamber as a groove-like recess and opens along an outer circumferential surface of the outer rotor. A support protrusion is formed near a portion where the second oil return passage is formed to support a front surface, in a radial direction, of the outer rotor.
