# Electric axle drive for an axle of a motor vehicle, in particular of an automobile, and a motor vehicle, in particular an automobile

## Abstract

An electric axle drive ( 10 ) for an axle ( 16 ) of a motor vehicle is provided for use on two vehicle wheels ( 12, 14 ). The electrical axle drive has an electric machine ( 18 ) having a stator ( 20 ) and a rotor ( 22 ), and a gear set such that torque, is provided by the rotor ( 22 ), and is introduced into the planetary gear set ( 26 ) and a first output shaft ( 36 ), for driving one of the vehicle wheels ( 12, 14 ). A second output shaft ( 40 ), from which the other vehicle wheel ( 14 ) can be driven, is connected in a torque-transmitting manner to the planet carrier ( 32 ) as the second output ( 42 ) of the planetary gear set ( 26 ), via the outputs ( 38, 42 ). The respective output torques resulting from the respective drive torques can be dissipated from the planetary gear set ( 26 ) for driving the vehicle wheels ( 12, 14 ).
