Gear motor for a motor vehicle and motor vehicle having a gear motor

1. A gear motor for a motor vehicle, comprising:

a housing having an engine housing section to contain an electric machine and a transmission housing section to contain a transmission coupled to the electric machine,

wherein the electric machine, the transmission, and an oil collection tank are incorporated in an oil circuit,

wherein oil for the cooling and/or lubricating of the electric machine and the transmission circulates in the oil circuit by at least one delivery device of the gear motor or the motor vehicle, and

wherein the interior of the engine housing section and the interior of the transmission housing section are separated from each other such that the oil collects separately in the engine housing section and the transmission housing section at respectively at least one suction outlet connected to the delivery device, while a lower section of the transmission housing section in which the oil collects forms the oil collection tank.

2. The gear motor according to claim 1 , wherein the engine housing section comprises at least two suction outlets situated at the bottom and on opposite sides of the engine housing section.

3. The gear motor according to claim 1 , wherein the delivery device comprises a first pump and a second pump, wherein the oil can be delivered from the engine housing section through the first pump to the oil collection tank and from the oil collection tank through the second pump to the electric machine and the transmission.

4. The gear motor according to claim 3 , wherein the first pump comprises at least two suction inlets, each of which is connected respectively to one of the suction outlets of the engine housing section, and a common outlet on the pressure side, which is connected to an inlet of the oil collection tank.

5. The gear motor according to claim 1 , wherein the delivery device comprises a common pump connected at the intake side, separately, to the suction outlets of the engine housing and the oil collection tank, and at the pressure side to an inlet of the oil collection tank and at least one oil supply line leading to the electric machine and the transmission.

6. The gear motor according to claim 5 , wherein the common pump comprises at least two suction inlets, one of which is connected to a suction outlet or at least one of the suction outlets of the engine housing section and another one which is connected to the suction outlet of the transmission housing section, and a common outlet on the pressure side, by which the oil can be delivered directly to the oil collection tank and to the electric machine and the transmission.

7. The gear motor according to claim 2 , wherein the common pump comprises at least three suction inlets, at least two of which are connected to the suction outlets of the engine housing section.

8. The gear motor according to claim 1 , wherein the delivery device is or comprises a vane pump.

9. The gear motor according to claim 3 , wherein the first pump is a two-stroke vane pump or the common pump is a three-stroke vane pump.

10. The gear motor according to claim 1 , wherein the transmission or at least one component of the transmission is accommodated at least partly inside at least one shell which is open at the top on one side, so that the oil collection tank is bounded by an interior wall of the transmission housing section and the shell and is open at the top, emerging into the rest of the interior space of the transmission housing section.

11. The gear motor according to claim 1 , wherein the oil can be brought by at least one spray ring into the interior space of the engine housing section and/or by a delivery lance into a rotor shaft of the electric machine to produce a rotor internal cooling.

12. The gear motor according to claim 1 , wherein a heat exchanger is incorporated in the oil circuit for control of the temperature of the oil and/or the engine housing section comprises a cooling water jacket, which can be incorporated in a cooling water circuit.

13. A motor vehicle, comprising:

a gear motor according to claim 1 .
