  • Patent number: 10487925
    Abstract: The present invention provides an adjustment arrangement (10), comprising a rotating input element (26) at which a first torque from a motor arrangement (18, 22) can be inputted into the adjustment arrangement, a rotating output element (16) at which a second torque can be outputted by the adjustment arrangement, and a transmission portion for converting the first torque into the second torque, the transmission portion comprising a transmission means (32) having a first threaded portion (30) and a second threaded portion (34), the first threaded portion converting a rotation of the input element (26) into an axial movement of the transmission means, and the second threaded portion converting an axial movement of the transmission means into a rotation of the output element (16).

  • Patent number: 10273737
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a drive arrangement, comprising a motor drive shaft, which makes the drive force of a motor available, an output shaft, via which the drive arrangement outputs and accumulates a rotational force, a coupling, which is designed to transmit a rotational force from the motor drive shaft to the output shaft and from the output shaft to the motor drive shaft, and a braking arrangement, which counteracts a rotational movement of the output shaft with a braking force.

  • Patent number: 10240382
    Abstract: A scissor drive includes two legs which can be pivoted relative to one another about a pivot axis, each having a longitudinal axis and designed to be connected to an external component, and a motor/gear assembly that drives the relative pivoting movement of the two legs. The first leg includes a housing that is hollow at least in portions, a cavity defined in the hollow housing extending at least in portions along the longitudinal axis of the first leg, and the motor/gear assembly being received in the housing of the first leg at least in portions in the portion of the cavity that extends along the longitudinal axis of the first leg.

  • Patent number: 9500236
    Abstract: A drive device includes a drive device housing with a longitudinal axis, at least one gearing assembly received in the drive device housing, with a gearing housing, which is received in the drive device housing so as to be rotatable about the longitudinal axis thereof, an engagement element received in the drive device housing and connected thereto for rotation therewith with respect to a rotation about the longitudinal axis thereof when torque is transmitted through the engagement element, the engagement element including an end face running substantially orthogonally to the longitudinal axis, which end face is in frictional and, if desired, additionally interlocking engagement with an associated counter end face of the gearing assembly or one of the plurality of gearing assemblies, and a spring, which is received in the drive device housing and prestresses the end face and the counter end face against one another.
