A rotor body rotating during operation about a rotor axis includes radially open tooth gaps of a first gerotor stage of the at least two gerotor stages and teeth projecting radially outside of a second gerotor stage of the at least two gerotor stages. The tooth gaps of the at least two gerotor stages are fluidically sealed at least one of against one another and relative to a surrounding area.
