Abstract
An aggregate for feeding fuel from a supply tank to the internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, has a pump chamber with a suction opening for receiving fuel and a pressure opening for supplying a fuel and a feeding element rotating in the pump chamber and feeding fuel from the suction opening to the pressure opening. At least one of the chamber end walls in a region of a sealing surface formed between an end surface of the feeding element and one of the chamber walls has an opening which leads to an unloading space, and the opening as considered in a rotary direction of the feeding element is located near one edge which limits the suction opening, and has a radial extension which is at least equal to a radial extension of the suction opening.
