wherein, the decoupling element is designed electrically conductively at least in sections and covers a transition region between the housing parts.
2 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the decoupling element is arranged on a cable module side of the drive motor.
3 . A closure element arrangement for a motor vehicle comprising a closure element and a drive unit associated with the closure element as claimed in claim 1 .
4 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the plurality of housing parts comprises an end cap and a side wall element, wherein the end cap is arranged in relation to a geometric shaft axis of the motor shaft on the end face of the side wall element.
5 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the decoupling element is designed annularly and at least partially circumferentially surrounds the motor housing with respect to the geometric shaft axis.
6 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the housing parts are connected to each other by a crimp connection, and wherein the decoupling element covers the crimp connection.
7 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the decoupling element has an end portion associated with the end cap and an adjacent side portion associated with the side wall element, said end portion and side portion covering the transition region between the end cap and side wall.
8 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the housing parts are connected to each other by a crimp connection, and wherein the decoupling element covers the crimp connection, wherein at least one crimp tab belonging to the crimp connection.
9 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the end cap is designed at least in sections electrically conductively with an electrically conductive layer.
10 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the end cap is designed at least in sections electrically conductively.
11 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the end cap is designed as a brake element for a magnetic braking device for braking the motor shaft with a magnetic arrangement, and wherein the magnetic arrangement is arranged on the motor shaft for conjoint rotation and adjacent to the end cap.
12 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the decoupling element is made of a material composite or composite material with an electrically conductive material.
13 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the decoupling element has an elastomer element and an electrically conductive layer element, and/or wherein the decoupling element comprises an elastomer with embedded, electrically conductive elements.
14 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the decoupling element comprises an attachment portion for a ground connection element.
15 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 14 , wherein a ground connection element is joined to the attachment portion.
16 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 15 , wherein the ground connection element is held between the decoupling element and at least one of the housing parts.
17 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the ground connection element is held releasably.
18 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the decoupling element has a feedthrough, which is axial with respect to the geometric shaft axis, for the ground connection element.
19 . The drive unit as claimed in claim 18 , wherein the feedthrough is provided with respect to the geometric shaft axis circumferentially or on a side of the decoupling element facing the motor shaft.
