ELECTRIC MACHINE

An electric machine, characterized by two partial machines, each of which has a housing with a bottom-side end wall, in which in each case a stator and a rotor having a hollow rotor arm is accommodated, the two housings being arranged adjacent to one another with their bottom side end walls, with a common distribution device being provided in a cavity between the two housings for distributing a coolant that is used to cool the rotors and which is coupled with at least one housing-side inlet via which the coolant is supplied, and at least one housing-side outlet via which the coolant is discharged, and which is formed to distribute the coolant supplied into both hollow rotor arms and to guide the coolant flowing back from it to the at least one outlet. 本发明涉及一种电机，其特征在于两个子电机，所述两个子电机中的每个子电机具有带有底侧的端壁的壳体，在该壳体中分别接纳有转子和定子，该转子具有空心的转子支架，其中，两个壳体以其底侧的端壁彼此相邻地布置，其中，在两个壳体之间的空腔中设置有用于分配冷却介质的公共的分配装置，该冷却介质用于冷却转子，所述分配装置与至少一个壳体侧的入口和至少一个壳体侧的出口耦合，冷却介质通过该入口输入，冷却介质通过该出口排出，所述分配装置设计为用于将输入的冷却介质分配到两个空心的转子支架中并且将从该转子支架中回流的冷却介质引导到至少一个出口。
