A spring motor assembly for use in an architectural-structure covering is disclosed. The spring motor assembly including an output spool, one or more take-up spools, one or more springs coupling the take-up spool(s) to the output spool, cord storage spools for wrapping and unwrapping lift cords thereabout, and capstans (e.g., one-way wheels). In some embodiments, the spring motor assembly includes one or more features to facilitate improved operation. For example, in some embodiments, the capstans include a central longitudinal axis that is angled relative to a central longitudinal axis of the cord storage spools. In addition, in some embodiment, the central longitudinal axis of the cord storage spools, the output spools, and the take-up spool(s) are parallel to a front surface of the covering. In addition, in some embodiments, the spring motor assembly is contained within a unitary housing.
