  • Patent number: 9416782
    Abstract: An oil pump has a pump body, an outer rotor, and an inner rotor. The pump body includes a rotor chamber, an inlet port and an outlet port formed in the rotor chamber, an inlet passage communicating with the inlet port, an outlet passage communicating with the outlet port, a relief valve, a relief chamber formed on a discharge side of the relief valve, and an oil return passage formed from the relief chamber to the inlet passage. The outer rotor is supported by the inner circumferential support wall of the rotor chamber. The oil return passage is formed in the inner circumferential support wall as a groove-like recess and opens along an outer circumferential surface of the outer rotor.
