Abstract
The invention relates to a hydraulic tank (10) for storing a hydraulic liquid, comprising a one-piece tank housing (12) which forms a plastic hollow body and is manufactured by a rotational moulding process, wherein the tank housing (12) comprises at least one connection opening (92, 94, 126) at which is arranged a connection element (100, 110, 132) that is releasably connectable to a hydraulic conduit. In order to enable the hydraulic tank to be more cost-effective to produce, the connection element (100, 110, 132) comprises a plastic body which is manufactured by an injection moulding process and is welded together with the tank housing (12). Furthermore, a method for manufacturing a hydraulic tank (10) is proposed.
