Abstract
A small motorized drive for a movable functional element in a motor vehicle, especially for a motor vehicle closing device, with a drive element (11) which can be driven by an electric drive motor and a carrier (12) which transfers the force of the drive element (11) to the functional element and which is generally coupled to the drive element (11), but not to the functional element. The running electric drive motor can be shut off in at least one stopping position by blocking of continued movement of the drive element (11) in the driven direction of motion by the carrier (12) striking a carrier stop surface on the functional element (blocked mode). When blocking of the continued movement of the drive element (1) in the driven direction of motion occurs, blocking of backward motion of the drive element (11) relative to the driven direction of motion takes place.
