Abstract
In a displacement drive that provides an obstruction prevention function for movable parts, in particular such as windows and sunroofs in motor vehicles, a decrease in the rotation speed or velocity of the drive is provided in order to achieve a predefined spring rate in specific displacement ranges so as to lower the kinetic energy. Within the predefined range before the closed position is reached, the rotation speed and/or the output of the drive is reduced linearly. The reduction to a minimum rotation speed or minimum output takes place within a specific position range. The minimum rotation speed or minimum output is reached at a specific position before the closed position and is substantially constant. Corresponding to different supply output levels, a linear reduction, for example, is performed along lines of different slopes, the length of the specific position range in which the reduction is performed being constant.
