Pump device

1. A pump device for a motor vehicle, comprising:

a pump device housing;

a delivery chamber which is formed in the pump device housing and/or at least partially by the pump device housing and which comprises an inlet and an outlet;

a delivery structure which is arranged in the delivery chamber and delivers a fluid from the inlet on a low-pressure side of the pump device to the outlet on a high-pressure side of the pump device; and

a first conduit which channels the fluid from the outlet out of the delivery chamber to a first assembly;

wherein a second conduit diverges from the first conduit in the region before the first assembly and feeds a portion of the pressurised fluid to a second assembly, and

wherein a filter element is arranged at a point where the second conduit diverges from the first conduit.

2. The pump device according to claim 1 , wherein the first assembly is a filter which cleans the fluid, fed from the outlet via the first conduit, by filtering it.

3. The pump device according to claim 1 , wherein the filter element is or comprises a lattice, screen or mesh or is formed as a lattice or screen.

4. The pump device according to claim 1 , wherein the first conduit comprises the outlet out of the delivery chamber, and a bifurcation is formed in or near to the outlet.

5. The pump device according to claim 4 , wherein the bifurcation lies with a portion of the first conduit ( 4 ) and a portion of the second conduit within the pump device housing, and the pump device housing forms at least a part of the bifurcation and/or first conduit and/or second conduit.

6. The pump device according to claim 1 , wherein the pump device is a tandem pump which comprises a liquid pump and a gas pump.

7. The pump device according to claim 6 , wherein the liquid pump supplies the first conduit and the second conduit with the fluid.

8. The pump device according to claim 7 , wherein the liquid pump is a lubricating pump, and the gas pump is a vacuum pump.

9. The pump device according to claim 6 , wherein the liquid pump is a lubricating pump, and the gas pump is a vacuum pump.

10. The pump device according to claim 6 , wherein the second conduit supplies the liquid pump and/or the gas pump with a lubricant and/or sealant via a feed conduit.

11. The pump device according to claim 6 , wherein the second conduit supplies a sealing groove of the gas pump with a sealant via a feed conduit.

12. The pump device according to claim 1 , wherein the second assembly is a gas pump.

13. The pump device according to claim 1 , wherein the second assembly is a vacuum pump.

14. A pump device for a motor vehicle, comprising:

a pump device housing;

a delivery chamber which is formed in the pump device housing and/or at least partially by the pump device housing and which comprises an inlet and an outlet;

a delivery structure which is arranged in the delivery chamber and delivers a fluid from the inlet on a low-pressure side of the pump device to the outlet on a high-pressure side of the pump device; and

a first conduit which channels the fluid from the outlet out of the delivery chamber to a first assembly;

wherein a second conduit diverges from the first conduit in the region before the first assembly and feeds a portion of the pressurised fluid to a second assembly,

wherein a filter element is arranged in a region or at a point where the second conduit diverges from the first conduit, and

wherein the filter element protrudes at least partially into the first conduit.

15. A pump device for a motor vehicle, comprising:

a pump device housing;

a delivery chamber which is formed in the pump device housing and/or at least partially by the pump device housing and which comprises an inlet and an outlet;

a delivery structure which is arranged in the delivery chamber and delivers a fluid from the inlet on a low-pressure side of the pump device to the outlet on a high-pressure side of the pump device; and

a first conduit which channels the fluid from the outlet out of the delivery chamber to a first assembly;

wherein a second conduit diverges from the first conduit in the region before the first assembly and feeds a portion of the pressurised fluid to a second assembly,

wherein a filter element is arranged in a region or at a point where the second conduit diverges from the first conduit, and

wherein the filter element arranged so as to be self-cleaning, such that pollutants in the fluid which are prevented by the filter element from flowing into the second conduit are flushed away from the filter element by the fluid in the first conduit and are carried off towards the first assembly.

16. A pump device for a motor vehicle, comprising:

a pump device housing;

a delivery chamber which is formed in the pump device housing and/or at least partially by the pump device housing and which comprises an inlet and an outlet;

a delivery structure which is arranged in the delivery chamber and delivers a fluid from the inlet on a low-pressure side of the pump device to the outlet on a high-pressure side of the pump device; and

a first conduit which channels the fluid from the outlet out of the delivery chamber to a first assembly;

wherein a second conduit diverges from the first conduit in the region before the first assembly and feeds a portion of the pressurised fluid to a second assembly,

wherein the first assembly is a filter which cleans the fluid, fed from the outlet via the first conduit, by filtering it, and

wherein a filter element is arranged in the region or at a point where the second conduit diverges from the first conduit.
