Abstract

A pump is provided, which includes: an internal housing inside which a vane rotor is housed; a pump housing 1 in which the centre of rotation of the vane rotor is immovable and the internal housing is able to move; a first control oil chamber which causes the internal housing to move in a direction of decreasing the discharge volume; and a second control oil chamber which causes the internal housing to move in a direction of increasing the discharge volume; a pressure adjustment valve; a temperature-sensitive valve; and an elastic member which elastically impels the internal housing. A flow passage area of the temperature-sensitive valve changes gradually with change in oil temperature, and the pressure adjustment valve changes a discharge volume in accordance with increase in pressure of the discharge oil.
