Abstract

The invention relates to a portable hydraulic pump unit (1) comprising a housing (2), a pump (5), a drive motor (6) for the pump (5), in particular in the form of an electric drive motor, in addition to a reservoir (13) for hydraulic fluid. According to the invention, the housing (2) is tubular and (when viewed in cross-section) point symmetrical, e.g. cylindrical, square, triangular or polygonal. The advantage of the hydraulic pump unit is that is can be positioned and transported in the receptacles of conventional portable tank carriers, in particular for the tanks of protective breathing apparatus.
