Drive unit for adjusting window panes, sunroofs, seats and similar motor vehicle parts

摘要

A drive unit for adjusting window panes, sunroofs, and seats in a vehicle has a reversible electric motor behind which is inserted a worm gear with a worm shaft. To prevent an undesired or unauthorized adjustment of a motor vehicle part, a brake device is provided. The brake device has a mechanical, one-way brake element with which the worm shaft may be coupled by an axial displacement. In order to reduce the effect of the brake device on the worm shaft when the window pane is adjusted by the electric motor, the brake element is the rotatable part of a rotation limiting device and, in the axial direction, it is supported on a stop.
