Abstract
The invention relates to a drive for an actuating unit, especially for a power closing mechanism, preferably for a motor vehicle lock, comprising a motor housing part for accommodating an electric motor and a housing cover part for covering the motor housing part, a cable for electrically conducting current being electrically connected to a motor contact of the electric motor in the motor housing part and the cable comprising a diversion zone. The diversion zone of the cable is arranged outside or at least partially outside the housing. In this manner, the cable is not unduly bent during assembly when the housing is closed.
Claims19
Drive for an actuating unit for a power closing mechanism-of a motor vehicle door lock, comprising a motor housing part for accommodating an electric motor and a housing cover part for covering the motor housing part, wherein the motor housing part and the housing cover part are rotateably connected to each other by a joint that includes a common articulated axle, a cable for electrically conducting current that is electrically connected to a motor contact of the electric motor in the motor housing part, wherein the cable extends from the motor housing part to the housing cover part and the cable comprises a diversion zone, wherein the diversion zone of the cable is arranged outside or at least partially outside of the motor housing and wherein the cable is arranged in such a way that the diversion zone extends around the common articulated axle of the motor housing part and the housing cover part.
Drive for an actuating unit for a power closing mechanism-of a motor vehicle door lock, comprising a motor housing part for accommodating an electric motor and a housing cover part for covering the motor housing part, in which a cable for electrically conducting current is electrically connected to a motor contact of the electric motor in the motor housing part and the cable comprises a diversion zone, wherein the diversion zone of the cable is arranged outside or at least partially outside of the motor housing, wherein the diversion zone of the cable is arranged in such a way that the diversion zone extends around a common articulated axle of the motor housing part and housing cover part, especially in immediate proximity to the articulated axle or optionally through the articulated axle, and wherein the motor contact of the electric motor is facing the articulated axle and/or that an opening is arranged in the motor housing part in such a way that the opening on the outside of the motor housing part tangentially rests on the curvature of the motor housing part.
