Abstract
In a pump device, a pump chamber is formed by welding a first flange portion of a first housing sealing a stator and a second flange portion of a second housing put on the first housing from one side in an axial direction. Since the second housing is provided with first reinforcement ribs each connecting the second flange portion and a side wall portion, the second flange portion is less likely to be deformed even when a pressurizing force in the axial direction is applied to the second flange portion during welding. As a result, it is possible to prevent a first welding portion provided on the first flange portion and a second welding portion provided on the second flange portion from being welded in a state of being unable to sufficiently contact each other, and thus there is little possibility that defective welding occurs.
