A vane pump that includes a first communication passage that extends along an outer periphery of the cam ring and that guides a fluid that has not flowed into the first suction port from the first inflow passage to the second suction port; a second communication passage that extends along the outer periphery of the cam ring on an opposite side of the first communication passage with respect to the rotor and that guides a fluid that has not flowed into the second suction port from the second inflow passage to the first suction port; and a rectifying portion that guides the fluid from the second inflow passage so that the fluid flows into the second suction port along the outer periphery of the cam ring.

Vane pump including fluid communication passages for routing fluid received from two inflow passages around outer peripheral surface of the entire perimeter of the cam ring

In a gear pump, an outer rotor and an inner rotor are disposed in a rotor installation chamber defined by a pump body and a pump cover. A suction port groove and a discharge port groove are formed in at least one of the pump body and the pump cover. A narrowing portion is formed at a portion of a radially outer side wall portion of the suction port groove, the portion being close to a terminal end wall portion of the suction port groove. The narrowing portion narrows the groove width in the radial direction. A pressurizing region that pressurizes oil in the gear chamber is formed between the narrowing portion and the terminal end wall portion.
