Supply unit

Feed unit for delivering fuel from a supply tank (10), especially for internal combustion engines, with a filter cup (13) having a central chamber (14) and an annular chamber (15) enclosing the latter, with a filter cover (30) which closes the end side of the annular chamber (15) and which contains an inlet duct (36) to the annular chamber (15) and an outlet duct (37) from the annular chamber (15), which outlet duct (37) is enclosed by an outlet connection piece (40), with an electric fuel feed pump (22) which is inserted in the central chamber (14) and has a housing (23) with a pump inlet and pump outlet (24, 25), wherein the pump inlet (24) communicates with a suction connection piece (26) which is arranged at the end side of the housing and which projects through an opening (46) in the cup base (131) into a suction space (19), characterized in that the clearance diameter of the central chamber (14) is greater than the outer diameter of the housing (23) of the feed pump (22), in that a pressure connection piece (27) which projects axially and communicates with the pump inlet (24) is formed at the end side of the housing (23) remote of the suction connection piece (26) and a mounting cap (38) which communicates with the inlet duct (36) and engages over the pressure connection piece (27) is formed at the filter cover (30), and in that a sleeve (39 and 28, respectively) of elastic material is inserted between the pressure connection piece (27) and the mounting cap (38) on the one hand and the boundary edge of the opening (46) in the cup base (131) and the suction connection piece (26) on the other hand.
