Abstract

A high-pressure fuel supply pump includes a discharge valve, which is a non-return valve between a pressurizing chamber and a discharge port. The discharge valve includes a valve body housing, a discharge valve spring, a valve body and a seat member. The discharge valve is a flat valve. When the valve is opened, a flow of fuel moving from the pressurizing chamber and axially colliding with the valve body is radially distributed in the radial direction of the valve body to become a flow directly moving the discharge ports and a flow colliding with an inner wall of the valve body housing before moving toward the discharge ports and then in a circumferential direction of the valve body.
