Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a gearbox arrangement ( 10 ) for a vehicle, preferably an industrial or agricultural goods vehicle. The gearbox arrangement ( 10 ) can be at least partially lubricated with lubricant ( 24 ) from a lubricant sump and comprises at least two gearbox sections ( 20, 22 ). Each gearbox section ( 20, 22 ) comprises a gearbox housing part ( 44, 46 ). The gearbox housing parts ( 44, 46 ) of the two gearbox sections ( 20, 22 ) are adjacent to each other and form part of a lubricant sump. In a normal operational mode, one or the other gearbox section ( 20, 22 ) can normally be operated. According to the invention, a separating means ( 42 ) is provided between the two gearbox sections ( 20, 22 ) in order to reduce losses occurring in the gearbox arrangement ( 10 ) due to splashing for at least in most operational states of the vehicle, without substantially increasing the amount of construction space provided for the gearbox arrangement ( 10 ), said separating means being used to separate the two gearbox sections ( 20, 22 ) from each other in an at least partial manner. Lubricant ( 24 ) can be retained in the housing part ( 44, 46 ), whereby the gearbox section ( 20, 22 ) thereof is not operated in a momentary state of operation or operated at a low speed.
