Abstract: A drive for a leaf of a door, window, or the like, including a mechanical energy store (16) configured to store energy during an opening movement of the leaf and expend energy during a closing movement of the leaf, an electric motor (18) operatively connected to the leaf via a motor shaft (20), the electric motor (18) operated as a generator to dampen the opening movement and the closing movement. The electric motor including a control unit configured to control the electric motor, wherein a drive behavior of the control unit is repeatedly and variably adaptable to a current need of a user.

Abstract: A drive for a leaf of a door, window, or the like, comprising at least one mechanical energy store, which is charged by an opening movement of the leaf and discharged by a closing movement of the leaf, at least one electric motor, which is operatively connected to the leaf via at least one motor shaft and can be operated as a generator in order to dampen the leaf movements, and a control and/or regulator electronics unit for controlling the electric motor. The control and/or regulator electronics unit comprises means via which the drive behaviour can be variably specified repeatedly by a respective user and/or via which the drive behaviour can be variably adjusted repeatedly in accordance with the behaviour of a respective user.
