1. A cooling device for an electromagnetic induction charging device for inductive charging of a motor vehicle with electrical energy, the cooling device comprising:
a housing including an upper housing shell and a lower housing shell which surround a housing interior;
at least one air path through which air from an environment of the cooling device is flowable, the at least one air path arranged in the housing interior;
a coolant path through which a coolant is flowable, the coolant path arranged in the housing interior fluidically separated from the at least one air path;
at least one heat exchanger arranged in the housing interior, the coolant path and the at least one air path directed through the at least one heat exchanger such that, in the at least one heat exchanger, heat is transferrable from the coolant to the air to cool the coolant;
at least one fan arranged in the housing interior; and
wherein the at least one fan is arranged upstream of the at least one heat exchanger in the at least one air path.
