An arrangement of the suction funnel of a lubricating oil pump in the oil pan of an internal combustion engine, in which the suction funnel is supported at the bottom of the oil pan by means of an elastic spacer member and the interior space of the suction funnel is in sealed connection with the interior space of the hollow spacer member; the spacer member rests with its lower end on the bottom of the oil pan by means of a bead-like, relatively inelastic support rim which is provided with one or several openings, the spacer member directly surrounds the inlet end of the suction funnel with prestress by means of its part disposed in the upper half thereof and constructed of larger diameter than the lower half in such a manner that a screen filter arranged in the suction funnel is force-lockingly and form-lockingly clamped with its retaining rim clamped between the inlet end of the suction funnel and the part at the upper half of the spacer member.
An arrangement of a suction funnel of a lubricating oil pump in an oil pan of an internal combustion engine, in which the suction funnel is supported at the bottom of the oil pan by means of an elastic hollow spacer means and the interior space of the suction funnel is sealingly connected with the interior space of the hollow spacer means, the spacer means resting with its lower end on the bottom of the oil pan by way of a support rim means provided with at least one opening determining the air-free suctioning-off, characterized in that the spacer means directly surrounds the inlet end of the suction funnel by a portion of the spacer means located in the upper half thereof, said portion having a larger diameter than a lower half portion, and a screen filter being arranged in the suction funnel and being force-lockingly and form-lockingly clamped in by a retaining rim clamped between the suction funnel and the portion of the spacer means surrounding said suction funnel.
