Abstract: A device for adjusting the level of a motor vehicle comprises an electric motor (4) and an actuating gear (3) which is connected upstream of a screw drive (2). The actuating gear (3) is formed by three series-connected gears (14, 15, 16) with parallel rotation axes (D14, D15, D16). An input gear (14), the number of teeth of which is at least one and at most five, is coupled to the motor shaft (17) of the electric motor (4) for conjoint rotation. The input gear engages with an intermediate gear (15) which engages with an output gear (16) which is connected to a nut (9) of the screw drive (2) for conjoint rotation.

Abstract: An actuator for level adjustment of a motor vehicle utilizes a ball screw and a locking unit provided for blocking the ball screw. The actuator has a spindle drive which can be actuated by an electric motor via a gear. The spindle may be fastened to a damper of the chassis of a motor vehicle, to a wheel carrier or to the body or a subframe of a motor vehicle. With the aid of a locking unit of the spindle drive, the rotation of the spindle nut can be optionally blocked or enabled. The locking unit includes a locking element which engages a locking contour attached to the end face of a rotatable element of the gear.

Abstract: A device for level adjustment for a motor vehicle includes a ball screw. The screw nut of the ball screw is driven by an electric motor. The spindle of the ball screw is displaceable with respect to a housing. The ball screw is supported with respect to the housing using two axial self-aligning bearings with a common pivot point such that the housing can pivot with respect to the spindle, thereby avoiding loads on the balls of the ball screw.
