Abstract
An apparatus for adjusting a mirror or a similar flat planar element about two mutually perpendicular axes. The apparatus has a housing enclosing a reversible motor, an electromagnetically operated clutch and two planetary transmission assemblies, one for each direction of movement. The clutch selectively couples the motor to one or the other of the two pinion sun wheels of the planetary transmission systems. The drive shaft of each planetary transmission assembly is provided with crank arm, which engages a corresponding mirror adjustment unit. A mirror mounting plate is provided with recesses into which correspondingly shaped parts of the mirror adjustment units are introduced by snap fitting.
