Abstract

An air compression device includes: a compressor device for the compression of air, wherein the compressor device has a compressor axis and the compressor axis is defined by a direction in which air is compressed by the compressor device; an electric motor for driving the compressor device, wherein the electric motor has an electric motor axis formed by an axis of rotation of the electric motor; and a transmission that mechanically connects the electric motor to the compressor device. The transmission arranges the compressor device and the electric motor at an angle to one another, and the compressor axis and the electric motor axis enclose an angle between 10° and 80°, in particular 20° and 70°, more specifically 30° and 60°.
