Abstract
A fluid pump includes a housing, a rotary shaft, and pump units which are contained in the housing and sucks in, pressurizes, and discharges fluid with being rotationally driven by the rotary shaft. The housing has a suction passage conducting the fluid from a suction port to the pump unit, a discharge passage conducting the fluid from the pump unit to a discharge port, a return passage returning a portion of the fluid flowing through the discharge passage to an upstream side of the pump unit, and a control valve controlling a flow of the returned fluid. The return passage is formed so as to conduct the returned fluid in the same direction as a flow of a sucked fluid flowing through the suction passage to make the returned fluid flow together with the sucked fluid.
