Apparatus for regulating the position of an adjustably positionable vehicle part with drive shaft and damping member for damping its axial displacement

An apparatus for regulating the position of an adjustably positionable vehicle part, comprising:

• an electric drive motor having a drive shaft which is axially displaceable within a fixed limit during driving operation of the shaft;
• a power transfer assembly having a driven member operatively connected to the drive shaft of the electric motor for driving movement thereby;
• a damping member formed as a damping rubber for damping the axial displacement of the drive shaft of the electric motor in one axial direction;
• and a housing, said drive shaft at least at one of its end sides abutting against said housing through said damping member, said housing having a chamber compatibly dimensioned with respect to the damping rubber and receiving the damping member therein in a press fit disposition, said drive shaft at least at one of its end sides abutting against said housing through said damping member, said damping rubber and said chamber of said housing being formed so that said damping rubber is non removably received in said chamber and fully fills said chamber so that there is no gap between said damping rubber and said chamber of said housing.
