An air compressor assembly includes a compressor housing, an intake port defined by the compressor housing for intake of the air, and a plurality of guide contours disposed adjacent to the intake port. The guide contours include between three and six strips. A valve unit is disposed adjacent to the intake port, the valve unit comprising a closing element that assumes an opened position during operation and a closed position when in a switched-off state. The closing element is plate-shaped, is axially movable, and is guided by the plurality of guide contours between the opened position and the closed position. A stroke limitation element is provided to limit axial movement of the closing element in the opened position. A spring is disposed between the closing element and the stroke limitation element. The spring provides a return force to the closing element to bias the closing element into the closed position.
