A fuel supply device mounted on an automotive vehicle includes a fuel pump
and a sub-tank containing the fuel pump therein. The sub-tank and the
fuel pump are submerged in fuel contained in a fuel tank. Operation of
the fuel pump is controlled in a switching manner thereby to supply the
fuel contained in the fuel tank to an internal combustion engine. When
the fuel tank is made of a resin material, electromagnetic noises
generated in the switching operation of the fuel pump are emitted from
the fuel pump through the fuel tank, interfering with radio waves
received by a receiver mounted on an automotive vehicle. To shield such
noises, the fuel pump is disposed in the sub-tank that is made of a
metallic material and grounded to a body of the vehicle. In this manner,
the noises from the fuel pump are surely intercepted.
