Electrical machine with cooling system

1. An electrical machine, comprising:

a rotor;

a stator having an end winding; and

at least one bearing,

wherein the rotor is effectively connected with a rotor shaft rotationally mounted in a housing by means of the at least one bearing,

wherein the bearing is located in a bearing end plate,

wherein a seal shield or a cover shield forms an enclosed coolant space that extends from the bearing end plate at least partly into the vicinity of the stator end winding,

wherein the seal shield or the cover shield is provided with a widened portion that extends to the stator end winding and forms an enclosed coolant annulus that is located in the vicinity of the stator end winding, with the stator end winding at least partly overlapping an inside periphery of the coolant annulus,

wherein the bearing end plate includes at least one coolant space that transports a coolant flow, and

wherein liquid coolant flows through the enclosed coolant annulus and does not directly contact the stator end winding.

2. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the coolant space is located in the bearing end plate in an area axially next to the bearing.

3. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the coolant space is located in the bearing end plate in an area radially next to the bearing.

4. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 1 , comprising a coolant space located in an area axially next to the bearing in communication with another coolant space that is located in an area radially next to the bearing.

5. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the bearing is sealed toward an outside by an outside sealing device, and wherein the coolant space is provided in the bearing end plate between the bearing and the outside sealing device.

6. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the bearing is sealed toward an inside by an inside sealing device, and wherein the coolant space is provided in the bearing end plate between the bearing and the inside sealing device.

7. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the coolant space comprises a first coolant space and a second coolant space, wherein the first coolant space is in communication with the second coolant space.

8. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the inside sealing device is located in a seal shield fastened to the bearing end plate.

9. The electrical machine as claimed claim 3 , wherein the coolant space is provided between the bearing end plate and a seal shield.

10. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the coolant space extends in a radial direction over a front surface of the bearing end plate to the bearing.

11. The electrical machine as claimed claim 3 , wherein the coolant space extends in the radial direction over the front surface of the bearing end plate to a bearing shoulder of the bearing end plate that supports the bearing.

12. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the coolant space is connected to a coolant circuit, whereby the coolant space is in communication with a feed connection and/or a drain connection for the coolant.

13. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 12 , wherein at least one of the feed connection and the drain connection is in communication with a coolant channel in the bearing end plate.

14. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 1 , including an accessory device driven by the rotor and located next to the bearing end plate.

15. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the bearing is a roller bearing.

16. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the sealing device comprises a rotary shaft seal located in the bearing end plate.

17. The electrical machine as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the accessory device is a transmission.
