Delivery device for delivering fuel out of a fuel tank

1. A delivery device for delivering fuel out of a fuel tank to an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, comprising a fuel pump, a swirl pot which has a foot valve, and a sucking jet pump, wherein a suction connection of the sucking jet pump is connected to the fuel tank, a suction connection of the fuel pump is connected directly to a mixing tube of the sucking jet pump, and an overflow valve in connection between the mixing tube into the swirl pot.

2. The delivery device according to claim 1 , wherein the foot valve is arranged in the suction connection of the sucking jet pump and is movable into the open position by a negative pressure in the suction connection of the sucking jet pump in relation to the pressure at the bottom of the fuel tank, and is movable into the closed position when there is equilibrium of pressure.

3. The delivery device according to claim 1 , wherein the overflow valve has a float arranged in the swirl pot and is switchable into the open position by the float above a designated filling level in the swirl pot and is switchable into the closed position below the designated filling level.

4. The delivery device according to claim 3 , wherein the float of the overflow valve is arranged in the vicinity of the bottom of the swirl pot.

5. The delivery device according to claim 1 , wherein the overflow valve is designed as a pressure control valve which opens when the mixing tube contains a high pressure in relation to the pressure in the bottom region of the swirl pot.

6. The delivery device according to claim 1 , wherein a mixing chamber is arranged in the bottom region of the swirl pot, in that the mixing chamber has a nozzle of the sucking jet pump and a connection for the mixing tube of the sucking jet pump, and in that the foot valve leads into the mixing chamber.

7. The delivery device according to claim 1 , wherein the overflow valve is arranged on the mixing tube.

8. The delivery device according to claim 1 , wherein the foot valve and/or the overflow valve have/has a plate-like component covering an opening.

9. The delivery device according to claim 8 , wherein the plate-like component is connected to a guide stem.

10. The delivery device according to claim 1 , wherein the foot valve is covered by a fine-mesh filter element.

11. The delivery device according to claim 1 , wherein the overflow valve is covered by a fine-mesh filter element.

12. The delivery device according to claim 1 , wherein the sucking jet pump is arranged next to the fuel pump.

13. A delivery device for delivering fuel out of a fuel tank to an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, comprising:

a fuel pump having a first suction connection,

a sucking jet pump having a second suction connection connected to the fuel tank, and having a mixing tube directly connected to the first suction connection,

a swirl pot, and

an overflow valve arranged in connection between the mixing tube and the swirl pot.

14. The delivery device according to claim 13 , wherein the swirl pot includes a foot valve.

15. The delivery device according to claim 14 , wherein the foot valve is arranged in the suction connection of the sucking jet pump and is movable into the open position by a negative pressure in the suction connection of the sucking jet pump in relation to the pressure at the bottom of the fuel tank, and is movable into the closed position when there is equilibrium of pressure.

16. The delivery device according to claim 13 , wherein the overflow valve has a float arranged in the swirl pot and is switchable into the open position by the float above a designated filling level in the swirl pot and is switchable into the closed position below the designated filling level.

17. The delivery device according to claim 13 , wherein the float of the overflow valve is arranged in the vicinity of the bottom of the swirl pot.

18. The delivery device according to claim 17 , wherein the overflow valve is designed as a pressure control valve which opens when the mixing tube contains a high pressure in relation to the pressure in the bottom region of the swirl pot.
