Abstract: A sliding clutch for an adjustment device of a rearview device of a motor vehicle comprises two plastic parts. A first part is formed as an external gear wheel having a first multiplicity of first coupling elements and a second part is formed as an internal shaft having a second multiplicity of second coupling elements. The two plastic parts rotate with one another up to a predefined maximum torque namely because a positive fit exists between the first and second coupling elements up to the predefined maximum torque. The invention furthermore relates to a side-view mirror for a motor vehicle having an adjustment device which comprises a sliding clutch according to the invention.

Abstract: A rearview assembly for a motor vehicle includes a dome, a foot attachable to the motor vehicle, a head rotatable relative to the foot, the head including at least one base body with a bearing opening for receiving an axis of rotation associated with the foot, where the foot is shaped together with the dome as an injection molded part, the dome includes at least one first stop element for engagement with at least one complementary second stop element of a cap nut screwed onto the dome, the cap nut providing a stop for a spring which extends around the dome, and the cap nut is an injection molded part.
