Abstract:
Disclosed is an actuator for the rotary drive of a vehicle flap. The actuator includes an electric motor, which has a output shaft with a center axis, an output unit, which is in force-transmitting connection with the electric motor in such a manner that activation of the electric motor causes a rotational displacement of the output unit about an axis of rotation of the output unit, and a mounting unit which is configured to support the actuator in force-transmitting connection with a superordinate assembly relative to the drive unit such that, upon activation of the electric motor, a displacement of the drive unit relative to the mounting unit takes place. Also disclosed is a storage apparatus for a vehicle door and a motor vehicle.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a spindle drive, comprising a drive unit, a spindle, and a spindle nut in threaded engagement with the spindle, the spindle nut being driven by the drive unit by means of a drive element, and wherein the spindle nut is mounted on the drive element in such a way that the spindle nut and the spindle in threaded engagement with it are pivotable relative to the drive element.
Abstract:
An electric side door drive assembly for a vehicle having a length-adjustable electric actuator to bring about opening and closing of the side door, and a door movement sensor unit designed to detect stopping and a current position of the side door during opening or closing of the side door. In the event of stopping of the side door detected by the door movement sensor unit, a controller determines, on the basis of side door position data provided by the door movement sensor unit, a necessary current strength which is to be supplied to the electric motor to hold the side door in its current position, and to deliver the necessary current strength to the motor of the actuator for a holding operation.
Abstract:
Actuating device for a vehicle part movable relative to a body of a vehicle, and in particular a vehicle door or a vehicle hatch, including a drive assembly having a drive unit and a drive element driven by the drive unit, and an actuating element which can be displaced relative to the drive assembly along a displacement axis by means of the drive unit, where the actuating element is connected to a carriage assembly which is in threaded engagement with a spindle, where the spindle can be driven rotationally about an axis of rotation by the drive unit, and where in that a central axis of the drive element is oriented at an angle to a plane which is defined by the displacement axis and the axis of rotation of the spindle.
Abstract:
An adjusting device for a vehicle part which is movable relative to a body of a vehicle, includes a drive arrangement having a drive unit and a movement state sensor, an adjusting element which is displaceable relative to the drive arrangement via the drive unit and a control unit for controlling the drive unit. The control unit is designed to actuate the drive unit according to an actual movement state. The disclosure also relates to a motor vehicle having a body and a vehicle part movable relative to the body, which part is equipped with an adjusting device.

Abstract:
A spindle drive apparatus includes a spindle, a spindle nut, a drive assembly with a drive unit, which is adapted for driving the spindle or the spindle nut, an output shaft of the drive unit and a drive assembly housing, in which the drive assembly is housed, at least one bearing, a coupling element, which prevents a displacement of elements houses therein from each other, wherein the drive assembly housing is free from forces, which are transmitted from one of the superordinate assemblies through the spindle drive apparatus to the other of the superordinate assemblies.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an electric motor (10) having a casing (12) and a rotor (18) which has a rotor shaft (26) with an axis (A), wherein the rotor shaft (26) is guided outside the casing (12), by means of one of its ends, through an opening (28) which is provided in a wall (30) of the casing (12) that extends at a right angle to the axial direction (A) and with which a bearing element (38) is associated, wherein the bearing element (38) bears the rotor shaft (26) such that it can rotate. According to the invention, the bearing element (38) is received in a depression (32) that is made in the wall (30) that extends at a right angle to the axial direction (A), wherein a damping element (54) is provided between a peripheral wall of the depression (32) and the bearing element (38). The invention further relates to a motor/gear unit (10/58) and a variable-length drive means having an electric motor (10) of this kind.
Abstract:
Provided is a brake device for braking a rotational movement of a shaft about the longitudinal axis, wherein the shaft is mounted so as to be rotatable about the longitudinal axis in a direction of rotation and in a counter direction which opposes the direction of rotation. Brake devices typically use constant and relatively high braking torques, to ensure a controlled movement of a movement portion, braked by the brake device, in every situation. However, this increases the energy consumption for a movement of the movement portion, and the wear of the brake device. A brake device equipped with a setting device for mutually opposing setting of a braking torque on the shaft during rotation of the shaft in the direction of rotation, and a counter braking torque during rotation of the shaft in the counter direction is provided. Also provided is a method for controlling a brake device.
