Abstract
A vehicle axle assembly includes a hub, which is mounted on a cylindrical axle body so that it can rotate about a central longitudinal axis, and an axially inner and an axially outer shaft sealing ring for indirect or direct sealing between the axle body and the hub. In order to enable an autonomous feed of pressure medium into a vehicle tire, the vehicle axle assembly includes an annular chamber that is formed between the two shaft sealing rings, the axle body and the hub, a first pressure medium line that extends through the axle body or one of the two shaft sealing rings and opens out into the annular chamber, and a second pressure medium line that extends out of the annular chamber through the hub and is designed to be connected to a wheel that is secured on the hub.
