Abstract
A coolant pump, in particular for use in internal combustion engines, includes a pump shaft carrying an impeller with substantially axial intake and radial discharge, and a casing provided with at least one roller bearing supporting the pump shaft, and a pulley for driving the pump. A particularly compact design is obtained by firmly connecting the inner race of the roller bearing to the casing, and by attaching the outer race of the roller bearing to the pulley.
