1. A device for cooling an axle differential of a motor vehicle, composed of an air-guiding plate for guiding an air stream under the motor vehicle, wherein the air-guiding plate is fastened to the axle differential such that an intrinsic movement of the axle differential causes an adjustment of the air-guiding plate, wherein the air-guiding plate is fastened to a housing of the axle differential and as a result of the intrinsic movements of the axle differential, the air-guiding plate guides the air stream to the axle differential when the motor vehicle is braking, guides no air stream to the axle differential when the motor vehicle is travelling at a constant speed, and guides the air stream away from the axle differential, such that a negative pressure is generated at the axle differential, when the motor vehicle is accelerating. |
