Linear drive with clutch

A linear drive comprising:

• a transmission housing,
• an electric motor which is accommodated with the transmission housing and drives a shaft with a worm which, in turn, meshes with a worm gear which is non-rotatably connectable to a clutch to a spindle holder to which there is non-rotatably connected a spindle on which runs a spindle nut which is adjustable in a guide tube longitudinally displaceably between a retracted rear end position and an extended front end position and is connected to a lift tube,
• wherein the clutch is biased by a spring,
• wherein the clutch is displaceable by a clutch actuation between a coupled position in which the clutch non-rotatably connects the worm gear to the spindle holder and an uncoupled position in which the clutch releases the spindle holder,
• wherein the clutch actuation includes a slide element which bears against the clutch and which is arranged non-rotatably but axially displaceably and a rotary element which is axially fixed but rotatable about an axis of rotation engages the slide element at an outside facing away from the clutch, run-on bevels of a complementary configuration are provided between the slide element and the rotary element, and there is provided a pulling means with which the rotary element is actuable, and
• wherein the slide element is axially displaceably in relation to the rotary element.
