METHOD FOR RECOGNIZING A JAM, AND ADJUSTMENT DEVICE
The invention discloses a method and an adjustment device for recognizing a jam in the adjustment path of a motor-driven adjustment mechanism (2), particularly a motor vehicle, wherein the value of an operation parameter (M) which characterizes a motor load is detected according to the adjustment path, the updated value of the operation parameter (M) is compared to a prespecified threshold value which is assigned to the current adjustment path, and if the value exceeds or falls below the threshold value, the motor (4) is switched off and/or driven in reverse by the current value of the operation parameter (M). It is proposed that the threshold value associated with the adjustment path is determined by means of a periodic portion (30), along the adjustment path, of a functional interrelationship. With the same solution, less storage capacity is required along the adjustment path, compared to the prior art, for storing the functional interrelationship.

METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETECTING THE ROTATION OF A BRUSH-OPERATED D.C. MOTOR
The invention relates to a method and a device for detecting the rotation of a brush-operated d.c. motor (1) comprising a number of winding branches (3) which are electrically connected between brushes (6, 7), during the operation of the motor, by means of plates (4), according to the rotational angle.
