That picture you linked is called a concertina. They are a little different than accordions in the way that they are played.

Now, depending on how portable you want, you have several options. If you want something you can fit in your pack, you can always get a toy accordion. However, your options musically with that one are pretty limited (only one scale and three basses). But it's definitely the smallest you are going to get. There's also an 8-bass model, though, again, it's pretty limited musically.

Concertinas are probably your next step up in terms of portability, and they are relatively inexpensive for low button models. A 20 button concertina is your cheapest version, and will give you some more options musically than the toy accordion. The next step up is 40 button, I believe, but it will cost more. A 40 button concertina is usually around the same price as a 48-bass accordion, if I remember correctly.

Finally, we have your "actual" accordions. They start out at 12-bass and go up from there. 12-bass will give you some good beginner options, 48 will give you more, the size difference isn't all that huge, and they cost around the same amount. Another option would be to try and find a lady's accordion for 120-bass, which is what I use (but, admittedly, it bigger than both the previous option. It is still quite a bit smaller than a men's 120-bass, though).

My accordion (lady's 120) isn't super cumbersome in the way of transportation. If you're used to carrying a guitar case around, it won't be much different in terms of size. It might be heavier than what you're used to, but logistically it doesn't take up that much space. Probably 2x2.5x1 feet on the case (I think. This is a rough guess on my case size).

Overall, if you want a wide range of notes, and if you are really concerned about portability, I guess I would have to recommend the 48-button. It seems like it would be the best size to travel with (though I never have done it). Perhaps someone who owns a 48-bass could extrapolate on this...

I think it's just a noise maker. Seems to be called a Jester Clapper.
