Abstract

The invention relates to a fluid pump, driven by means of an electric motor, which is coupled to a pump rotor of the fluid pump, wherein the electric motor is an axial-flux electric motor, the electric-motor rotor of which is also the pump rotor, and the pump rotor and the electric-motor rotor are accommodated in a common housing, in which the pump rotor and the electric-motor rotor rotate while integrated as combination rotor in a disk shape, wherein the common housing has a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet to the combination rotor. The invention further relates to a production method for such a fluid pump.
