Abstract
An actuator is provided with a housing to hold a drive system, a transmission which converts its motion into an essentially translational movement of an output element, and an electronic subassembly. The housing has a first housing part which contains the transmission and a second housing part which supports the electronic subassembly, which is detachable from the transmission. The two housing parts, when connected to one another, and without any partitions separating them, form a compartment in which the transmission and the electronic subassembly are contained as enclosed components which are three-dimensionally engaged with one another, but are functionally separate from one another.
