Between a cylinder block and a housing, there is disposed a valve base plate. The valve base plate is formed with mutually isolated first and second intake openings for fluidly communicating each of piston chambers in the cylinder block with an intake chamber defined in the housing. A reed valve element is incorporated with each piston chamber. The reed valve element is arranged to open the first and second intake openings with the aid of a fluid when the piston is moved away from the reed valve element and close the first and second intake openings with the aid of the fluid when the piston is moved toward the reed valve element. Due to provision of the two, viz., first and second intake openings, opening movement of the reed valve element is carried out along with a twisting motion of the same.
