The invention relates to a rear spoiler arrangement () including a displaceable air-guiding element () and a lower shell (), wherein the lower shell () is arranged on a rear component () of a motor vehicle (), wherein the air-guiding element () is arranged displaceably above the lower shell (), and wherein the lower side of the lower shell () has a lip () which is composed of an elastic material.

Rear spoiler arrangement

A drive unit for an air deflector element of a motor vehicle includes a drive motor transmission unit formed by a drive motor connected with, as a single unit, at least one transmission, a control unit configured to control the drive unit, and a temperature sensor configured to detect a temperature of the drive unit.

Drive unit and method for controlling a drive unit, in particular for an air deflector element of a motor vehicle

A drive arrangement for a motor vehicle functional part includes: a housing, in which a drive motor, a gear mechanism and an adjustor are provided at least partially; a drive shaft configured to transfer the adjustor via the gear mechanism from a closed position into an open position and vice versa; and a wrap spring arrangement comprising two wrap spring members, which act in opposite directions. The wrap spring arrangement is arranged on a gear mechanism output side, in a region of the adjustor.

Drive arrangement for a motor vehicle functional part

A motor vehicle rear-end for a motor vehicle includes a spoiler configured to influence aerodynamics of the motor vehicle, an actuator configured to move the spoiler between a retracted position of rest and an extended position of use, and a rear-mounted camera configured to monitor an observation area to a rear of the motor vehicle. The observation area comprises the spoiler when in the retracted position of rest and the spoiler when in the extended position of use. The motor vehicle rear end further includes an image evaluation unit connected to the rear-mounted camera and configured to detect the spoiler in the position of rest and/or in the position of use. The image evaluation unit is coupled to the activation actuator system in such a way that when the spoiler is detected in the position of rest and/or in the position of use, the actuator can be stopped.

Motor vehicle rear-end

A drive device () for motorized actuation of a functional element of a motor vehicle has an electric motor () with a motor shaft () and also has a worm shaft () of a worm gearing. A first end of the worm shaft is connected to the motor shaft () and a second end is received in a radial bearing (). The radial bearing () has a bearing body () with an outer surface mounted in a housing () and at least one annular bearing element () is mounted to the worm shaft (). The bearing element () is elastic at least in a partial region to ensure compensation for tolerances in the region of the radial bearing.
