a fuel inlet; and
a breather path formed of a pipe member communicating between an inside and an outside of the fuel tank,
wherein
an isolated body forming an isolated space that is isolated from an internal space of the fuel tank is provided inside the fuel tank,
the isolated body is provided with a breather room and a chamber room that are formed by partitioning the isolated space by a partition wall, a ventilation hole allowing the internal space and the chamber room to communicate with each other, and an inflow hole allowing the breather room and the chamber room to communicate with each other,
an end part on one side of the pipe member is disposed inside the breather room, and
the end part on the one side of the pipe member is bent in a spiral shape raised toward an end part side on another side from a distal end of the end part on the one side of the pipe member.
