Abstract
The invention relates to an internal-gear pump for pumping fuel in an internal combustion engine, having an internal-toothed annular gear and an external-toothed pinion that cooperates with the annular gear to generate a pumping action. To increase the pump capacity at starting rpm and to lengthen the service life of the internal-gear pump, the pinion is supported radially movably, eccentrically to the annular gear, on a bearing journal. Moreover, a device is provided in order to compensate for the radial play (R) between the pinion and the annular gear.
