Drive device for a vehicle part that is displaceable between end positions, with an electric motor connected by a reduction gear to a driving pinion which is connected to the vehicle part so as to drive it, as well as with a switching device for controlling the motor to stop the motor in at least one predetermined position of the vehicle part. To actuate the switching device there is a switch wheel which, during displacement of the vehicle part between its end positions, is rotated less than 360.degree. by an eccentric gear train. The eccentric gear train has an external gear with an internal toothing coaxial to a common shaft of the reduction gear and the eccentric gear train, an eccentric disk that is connected to the common shaft in a manner precluding relative rotation between the eccentric disk, and an internal gear with an external toothing that meshes with the internal toothing of the external gear. The internal gear is supported on the eccentric disk for relative rotation between the internal gear and the eccentric disk. The internal gear is prevented from rotating relative to the external gear and is guided for movement back and forth along an adjusting axis that is normal to the axial direction of the shaft. The external gear is connected to the switch wheel to rotate with it.
Drive device for displacing a vehicle part between end positions, comprising an electric motor that is connected by a reduction gear to a driving pinion located on a drive shaft, the driving pinion being connected to the vehicle part so as to drive it, a switching device controlling the motor to stop the motor in at least one predetermined position of the vehicle part, a switch wheel for actuating the switching device, and an eccentric gear train which, during displacement of the vehicle part between its end positions, causes the switch wheel to rotate less than 360.degree., the eccentric gear train having an external body internal gear with an internal toothing which is coaxial to a common shaft of the reduction gear and eccentric gear train, an eccentric disk that is connected to the common shaft for rotation therewith, and an internal body external gear that has an external toothing which is meshed with the eccentric gear train and has at least one tooth less than the external body internal gear, the internal body external gear being supported on the eccentric disk and being rotatable with the eccentric disk;
