Vehicle heater with fuel pump cooling

A vehicle heater comprising:

• a burner;
• a combustion air blower for feeding combustion air to said burner;
• an intake channel housing, said intake channel housing for guiding the combustion air into a flow leading to said combustion air blower;
• a fuel feed pump for feeding fuel to said burner, said fuel feed pump being mounted in said intake channel housing and in said flow of the combustion air;
• and
• web means for mounting said fuel feed pump substantially centrally in said intake channel to cause said flow to substantially surround all sides of said fuel feed pump.

A vehicle heater comprising:

• a burner;
• a combustion air blower for feeding combustion air to said burner;
• an intake channel housing, provided separate from said burner, said intake housing being on an upstream side of said combustion air blower and said burner being on a downstream side of said combustion with respect to said burner, said intake channel housing for guiding the combustion air into a flow leading to said combustion air blower;
• a fuel feed pump for feeding fuel to said burner;
• and
• means for mounting said fuel feed pump in said intake channel housing and in said flow of the combustion air for heat transfer between said fuel pump and said flow of combustion air.
