Method for resetting an elektromechanical device for axial displacement

The adjuster has two control rings (23,26) centered on a common axis, one axially supported and the other axially movable, one rotationally fixed and the other rotatable. The rotatable ring is coupled to an electric motor (11); the axially adjustable ring is acted upon by coil springs towards the axially supported ring. Resetting involves applying a negative voltage to the motor and separating it from the voltage on reaching its idling speed. AN Independent claim is also included for the following: an electromechanical axial adjuster.
