Abstract: An electromotive furniture drive includes a motorized adjustment drive for motorized adjustment of a furniture component, a control unit connected to a motor controller of the adjustment drive, and an operating unit for operating the adjustment drive. The control unit is designed, depending on the operating situation of the electromotive furniture drive, for driving, for stopping and/or for temporarily reversing a motor of the adjustment drive via the motor control. The motor is designed as a brushed DC motor. The control unit is designed to evaluate a frequency of a counter-EMF signal generated by the motor and to detect and signal a collision and/or a jamming incident as a function of the evaluated signal.
