Abstract

A fuel pump module for a vehicle includes: a pump positioned in a reservoir cup in a tank to suction and discharge fuel from the reservoir cup; a mount plate mounted in an opening of the tank; a return valve installed on the mount plate to pass return fuel, which is returned from an engine, into the tank; a guide wall disposed at a lower side of the mount plate to guide return fuel flowing in the tank through the return valve; and a channel disposed at the lower side of the mount plate so that return fuel guided by the guide wall flows down and configured to discharge the return fuel, which flows down, into the reservoir cup. The guide wall blocks return fuel, which flows in the tank, from spraying or dispersing laterally when a vehicle, which includes the fuel pump module, accelerates.
