Abstract: The invention relates to a geared drive unit (10), in particular a window-lifter drive, comprises a drive-side gear element (11) rotatably mounted in a gear housing (15), by means of which gear element a drive torque can be transmitted to at least one driving element (25, 26) of an output-side coupling element (20). Further, a load torque block is provided, by means of which a torque initiated by the output-side coupling element (20) via the at least one driving element (25, 26) can be blocked, wherein the load torque block comprises a blocking element (42), preferably in the form of a wrap spring, which interacts with an element that is non-rotatably mounted in the gear housing (15) to block the torque. According to the invention, the non-rotatably mounted element is simultaneously constructed as a radial bearing for the drive-side gear element (11).
