An electrohydraulic pressure supply unit involving the joint operation of two energy converters, which can be adjusted independent of each other, including an electric motor with speed control that drives a variable displacement pump with a variable displacement volume. The electric motor converts electrical output (loss-encumbered), into mechanical output, meaning into speed n and torque T. The pump then converts this mechanical output (also loss-encumbered) into hydraulic output. The hydraulic output is determined by the pressure difference &Dgr;p across the pump and the volume flow Q. The pressure difference &Dgr;p generally is impressed by the consumer or load on the system. The volume flow Q is the result of the displacement volume V and the motor speed n. The torque T, which must be generated by the motor, is derived from the displacement volume V and the pressure differential &Dgr;p. During the conversion from hydraulic output to mechanical output, the displacement volume V determines the distribution of the output to the speed n of the motor and the torque T. The current I flowing through the electric motor is primarily determined by the torque T while the voltage U is primarily influenced by the motor speed n. The volume flow supplied by the electrohydraulic pressure supply unit is essentially adjusted by controlling the speed adjustment of the electric motor. The speed of the electric drive motor in this case can essentially be adjusted independent of the displacement volume of the variable displacement pump.
