Abstract
A control drive according to the related art does not have a potentiometer that allows a position of the motor or the driven wheel to be registered. The control drive (1) according to the invention allows a position of the motor or the driven wheel to be registered using a potentiometer (25) and a defined home position to be adjusted.
Claims11
A control drive comprising:
- a housing (5);
- a driven wheel (30);
- an electric motor (9) disposed in the housing and coupled with the driven wheel (30);
- and
- a potentiometer (25) arranged in the housing (5) for determination of a position of the driven wheel (30), wherein the potentiometer (25) is located in a potentiometer housing (47), where the potentiometer housing (47) has at least one detent tooth (51), wherein the housing (5) has at least one detent projection (54), wherein the at least one detent projection (54) of the housing (5) in which the potentiometer housing (47) is installed forms a detent toothing (57) with the at least one detent tooth (51), wherein the detent toothing (57) or the detent tooth (51) is flexible enough to allow relative rotation of the potentiometer housing (47) within the housing (5).
