Abstract
A vane pump includes a casing, a rotor, vanes, a motor, and a fixed member. The casing defines a pump chamber therein. The rotor is disposed in the casing and configured to eccentrically rotate relative to the casing. The vanes are configured to rotate together with the rotor to slidably move on an inner surface of the casing. The motor is configured to rotate the rotor. Both the motor and the casing are fixed to the fixed member. The casing has an outer side wall surface and a flange. The flange protrudes outward from the outer side wall surface at an intermediate position between both ends of the pump chamber in a rotational axis direction of the rotor. The flange is fixed to the fixed member at a plurality of positions. The fixed member has a linear expansion coefficient that is different from that of the casing.
