This motorized reduction gear comprises a rotor equipped with a rotor shaft, a reduction gearbox ( ) containing a gearwheel ( ) in mesh with an endless screw of the shaft, a damper ( ) housed in the wheel, and secured thereto so that they rotate as one; the single-piece damper has peripheral cut-outs ( ) designed to accommodate, on the one hand, radial fins ( ) of the wheel and, on the other hand, elements ( ) for driving an output member ( ), and the edges of the cut-outs are chamfered ( ). The chamfers ensure that the angular deflection of the damper as a function of the torque is gradual and make it easier to fit automatically onto the hub of the gearwheel.
