Abstract: A spindle drive for a motorized adjustment of an adjustment element of a motor vehicle includes a tubular or half-shell-like spindle drive housing. An annular or disk-like connection portion is inserted and secured in one end region of the spindle drive housing. The annular or disk-like connection portion is connected via a damping element comprising a resilient damping material to a connection for discharging axial drive movements. The connection portion has a coaxial recess with an inner radially peripheral wall having a radially peripheral groove. The connection with the end region thereof facing the spindle drive housing protrudes axially into the recess of the connection portion and has a radially peripheral flange which protrudes radially into the groove. The damping element is arranged in a gap disposed between the side walls of the groove and the side walls of the flange.

Abstract: A piston-cylinder assembly includes a cylinder having a cylinder interior filled with a fluid and divided by a piston, which is axially displaceable in cylinder, into a first working space and a second working space. A piston rod is arranged on piston and is guided through second working space and through an end-side second closure in a manner sealed off to the outside at the second end of the cylinder. The retraction stroke of piston and piston rod is restricted by a stop which is arranged in cylinder and against which piston comes to bear directly or indirectly, wherein the axial position of the stop in cylinder is variably adjustable by an adjustment device.
