Abstract
An actuating mechanism, in particular for driving a motor vehicle rearview mirror. The actuating mechanism includes a housing, at least one electric motor, which is arranged therein and whose output shaft is drive-coupled to a reducing gear, driving an actuating mechanism, and a plug shaft, which is designed as one piece with the housing and into which a connecting plug can be plugged. Different types of contacting are possible with a housing shape and there is always the guarantee of a strain relief for the supply and/or control lines. Additional relief strain devices, which are not one piece with the housing and which can be plugged into the plug shaft and locked with the housing and which can accommodate at least two supply and/or control lines in one area, are at a distance from the line ends and holds the line ends so as to resist tension.
