Abstract
A clamping-roller freewheel for an adjustment device in a motor vehicle includes a housing, a cylindrical lateral surface that defines an axis, at least one roller, an output shaft that is central to the axis, and a clamping contour which is located on the side of the roller opposite from the cylindrical lateral surface and rotationally connected to the output shaft. The clamping contour is a double clamping contour. The roller is allocated to the double clamping contour. The double clamping contour has a left and a right clamping area. A clamping action arises due to the cooperation of the roller with the left or right clamping area, depending on the direction of rotation, and the cylindrical lateral surface.
