ABSTRACT:
A radial piston pump for low-viscosity fuel according to a first aspect of the invention comprises a pump housing, which is constituted of as few as two structural bodies (from among a drive-side housing member 2A, a fixed cylinder 81 and a cover 4), and a leaf valve member 82 which is formed with intake valves 87 for opening and closing intake side passages 27 and discharge valves 88 for opening and closing discharge side passages 28 and is sandwiched between two structural bodies (fixed cylinder 81 and cover 4). The first aspect of the invention reduces the number of components constituting the pump housing, enables highly precise overall axial alignment, prevents wobbling of a pump shaft 9 of the pump, increases performance and reliability and reduces cost. A radial piston pump for low-viscosity fuel according to a second aspect of the invention comprises a leaf valve member 205 formed in one and the same plane thereof with overflow ports communicating with an overflow passage 59 in the pump housing, intake valves 87 communicating with intake side passages 27 and discharge valves 88 communicating with discharge side passages 28. The third aspect of the invention provides a method for assembling the radial piston pump for low-viscosity fuel according to the second aspect of the invention.
