A final control element for superimposed steering engagement of a vehicle steering system with a superposition gear having two input shafts and one output shaft, in order to attain a radial freedom from play, the superposition gear is provided with a two-stage, modified planetary gear, having a planet carrier, at least one stepped planet comprising two axially aligned planet wheels connected to one another fixed against relative rotation, and two sun wheels or ray wheels; the first input shaft is connected to one sun or ray wheel, and the output shaft is connected to the other sun or ray wheel, fixed against relative rotation, while the planet carrier is drivable via the second input shaft, and the at least one stepped planet and the sun wheels are biasing toward provided for suppressing a tooth flank play that occurs between.

A longitudinal adjusting device on a motor vehicle seat having a seat back adjustable relative to the seat part and forwardly foldable after releasing an arresting device, has movable rails on which the seat is fastened. The moveable rails can slide in guide rails attached to the vehicle. One movable rail has a locking device that releasably locks the moveable rail on the guide rail. The locking device has a positioning device for returning the seat to its previous longitudinal position. The positioning device has a positioning disc with locking teeth and an arresting lever with a toothed segment engaging the locking teeth. The arresting lever can be released from the locking teeth to allow rotation of the positioning disc during longitudinal adjustment of the seat. A spring-loaded winding drum is arranged coaxially to the positioning disc and allows the seat part to slide forward by a tension member attached to the seat part or the guide rail.
