Abstract

The invention relates to a cooling module including an axial fan for vehicles, in particular for electric vehicles, which is characterized in that a cooling module casing encloses the axial fan and a flow deflection region and a cooling airflow enters the cooling module through an intake plane and leaves the cooling module through an outflow plane, wherein the intake plane and the outflow plane are aligned at an angle alpha in relation to one another and the angle alpha as the inclination of the intake plane in relation to the outflow plane is formed greater than or equal to 55° and the cooling module casing has a rear wall, wherein the rear wall is arranged at an angle beta of at most 90° in relation to the outflow plane, so that a flow deflection region is formed in the cooling module casing between the intake plane and the outflow plane and the rear wall.
