Abstract
An electric drive assembly has a housing, an electric machine with a stator having a stator core and winding heads, a rotor being connected to a rotor shaft, a transmission rotationally drivable by the rotor shaft, and at least one fluid distribution element for supplying coolant to one of the winding heads. The fluid distribution element at least partially covers an upper part of the winding head in the circumferential direction and in the axial direction, and has a guide structure with a gradient in the circumferential direction. Coolant supplied to the fluid distribution element from above is distributed in the circumferential direction and runs onto the winding head in several angular positions over a circumferential area of at least 30° with respect to the axis of rotation.
