5. The rotary drive according to claim 1, characterized in that the rotary drive comprises an outside rotor motor having a non-rotating shaft, the cleaning tool being held in the non-rotating shaft.
6. The rotary drive according to claim 1, characterized in that the entraining device comprises a gripping surface at least on a portion thereof for contact with the spinning rotor.
7. The rotary drive according to claim 1, characterized in that the entraining device comprises an elastic material.
8. The rotary drive according to claim 7, characterized in that the entraining device includes a rubber magnet material.
9. The rotary drive according to claim 1, characterized further by a positioning device for selectively shifting the rotary drive toward and away from the spinning rotor along the common axis of rotation.
10. The rotary drive according to claim 9, characterized in that the positioning device comprises a control device for adjusting an engagement force of the entraining device against the spinning rotor.
11. The rotary drive according to claim 3, characterized in that the entraining elements are arranged to be pivotable essentially radially inwardly into engagement with an outermost diameter of the spinning rotor.
The claims below are in addition to those above.
All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
1. An assembly, especially for a vehicle occupant restraint system, comprising an inflator (16) having a mounting flange (32) and an inflator supporting member (18) for resilient support of the inflator (16),
