  • Publication number: 20070063537
    Abstract: In an operating device for operating body components of a vehicle, it is provided, with a view to obtaining simple automatic operation as well as unrestricted manual operation, that an electromechanical drive unit comprises at least one drivable first stop element and a power transmission unit at least one second stop element which is connected to the body component, the stop elements being able to bear against each other for transmission of an operation power in a direction of power transmission and to be spaced from each other for uncoupling the drive unit from the power transmission unit in the direction of power transmission. There is no need for any electromechanical coupling for uncoupling purposes.

  • Patent number: 6382708
    Abstract: Arrangement for controlling the movement of a rearward-side air guiding system on motor vehicles, the rearward-side air guiding system having a rear spoiler provided on a rearward-side hood and a rear wing connected therewith, and the rear wing being movable by means of the arrangement from a retracted inoperative position into an extended operative position and vice versa. The arrangement for controlling the movement of the rear wing includes at least two telescopic tilt-out devices and one connection respectively between a driving device and the telescopic tilt-out device. The driving device contains a motor and at least one hydraulic cylinder, so that, when the motor (17) is triggered, a pressure is built up in the at least one hydraulic cylinder (18,18′) which can be transmitted to the telescopic tilt-out devices (16,16′) and has the effect that the rear wing (12) is moved against a spring force into its operative position.
