A pump, such as a rotary vane pump, roller cell pump, or gear pump for delivering diesel fuel, with a pump housing and a pumping unit that is arranged in the pump housing and driven for rotation via the drive shaft of a motor. The pump housing has an intake and an outlet, and the pump further has a hand pump unit that is integrally joined to the pump housing and delivers the fuel into the intake of the pump housing and thus into the flow path of the pumping unit.

Rotary pump with integral hand pump unit

A pump having a pump housing with a rotor in it, particularly a vane pump. The pump housing having a centering aid in the form of a sleeve that extends toward a drive shaft. The shaft has a smaller diameter than the bore through the sleeve. The shaft has a preferably toothed end portion that is received in a non-positively locking manner in the rotor. In a single stroke vane pump, the axis of the drive shaft is offset from the axis of the sleeve to compensate for the forces in pumping. The housing over the rotor and drive thereto is disclosed.
