    Abstract: The invention relates to a linear drive (100) for moving a closure element of a motor vehicle relative to a body of the motor vehicle. The linear drive (100) comprises an outer tube (110), an inner element (120) arranged in the outer tube (110), wherein the inner element (120) is telescopically extendable along a drive axis (A) of the linear drive (100) from an outlet end of the outer tube (110), and wherein an inner connecting element (128) for connecting the linear drive (100) to the closure element or to the body is fixed to the end of the inner element (120) which is extendable from the outer tube (110), a screw spring (130) arranged radially to the drive axis (A) between the inner element (120) and the outer tube (110), an inner support element (122) fixed to the inner element (120) axially to the drive axis (A), and an outer support element (111) fixed to the outer tube (110) axially to the drive axis (A), wherein the screw spring (130) is clamped axially to the drive axis (A) between the inner support element (122) and the outer support element (111). The linear drive (100) comprises a securing element (150) arranged between the screw spring (130) and the inner connecting element (128) and extending around the inner element (120) for securing the screw spring (130) against escaping from the linear drive (100), wherein, radially to the drive axis (A), an outer diameter of the securing element (150) is larger than an inner diameter of the screw spring (130), and an of the securing element (150) is smaller than an outer diameter of the inner connecting element (128), and wherein the inner element (120) is displaceable relative to the securing element (150) along the drive axis (A).

    Abstract: The electric strike can have a housing having an internal face receivable against a receiving face of a door frame, an external strike face, a socket recessed into the strike face along a socket axis normal to the receiving face of the door frame, for receiving a male locking member retractably mounted to a door, the male locking member also being moveable transversally to the socket axis, along a horizontal escape path, by opening the door, the electric strike further having a keeper pivotally mounted around a pivot axis between a closed configuration and an open configuration, the pivot axis parallel to the socket axis and offset from the escape path on a first side of the socket, inside the housing, the keeper having a gate member forming a restraining wall of the socket blocking the escape path when in the closed configuration, and a distal end.

    Abstract: The invention concerns a spindle drive for a closing element (3) of a motor vehicle (4), wherein in a drive train (14) of the spindle drive (1), a drive unit (5) is provided together with a spindle-nut gear (11) located drivingly downstream of the drive unit (5), with geometric spindle axis (A) running in the axial direction (X), in order to generate linear drive movements of a spindle-side drive connection (12a) relative to a nut-side drive connection (12b) between a retracted position and an extended position of the spindle drive (1), wherein in the drive train (14) a nominal break point (17) is provided which separates the drive train (14) at a predetermined axial limit load acting on the spindle drive (1) via the drive connections (12a, 12b), in particular a tensile load in the direction of the extension position. It is proposed that the drive train (14) is separated via the nominal break point (17) between the drive unit (5) and the spindle-nut gear (11).

    Abstract: A furniture drive for moving a furniture part movably supported relative to a furniture carcass. The furniture drive includes a carrier to be fixed to the furniture carcass, an actuating arm pivotally supported relative to the carrier about a pivoting axis between a closed position and a maximum opening position, and an adjustment device configured to adjust a position of the maximum opening position of the at least one actuating arm. The adjustment device includes a pivoting member configured to be moved in at least two pivoting positions relative to the actuating arm, and the pivoting member is configured to distance the actuating arm in the at least two pivoting positions to a different extent from an abutment arranged on the carrier when the actuating arm is arranged in the maximum opening position.
