Abstract

A wheel drive module (1) is provided that has a wheel (30) and a transmission, wherein the transmission comprises a first and a second drive gear ring (15, 25) which are arranged such that they can rotate about a common rotation axis (R). The wheel (30) can be steered and driven by a respective rotation of the first drive gear ring (15) and the second drive gear ring (25). A wheel-receiving space (20) extending along the axis of rotation (R) is defined between the first drive gear ring (15) and the second drive gear ring (25), in which the wheel (30) is arranged at least sectionally.
