1. An actuator comprising:
a spindle drive comprising a spindle and a spindle nut threadedly engaged with the spindle;
a first gear fixed to the spindle or the spindle nut for rotation therewith,
wherein the other one of the spindle nut or the spindle is connected to a first connection unit for connecting the actuator to a first parent assembly, and
wherein a rotation of the first gear causes a translational displacement of the first connection unit; and
a second gear engaged with the first gear and a shaft, the first gear, the second, gear, and the shaft disposed in a housing,
wherein a longitudinal axis of the spindle is inclined with respect to a rotational axis of the second gear,
wherein rotation of the two gears with respect to one another causes the transitional displacement of the first connection unit and rotation of the spindle drive about the rotational axis of the second gear, or the transitional displacement of the first connection unit causes the rotation of the two gears with respect to one another and the rotation of the spindle drive about the rotational axis of the second gear,
wherein a transmission assembly is arranged between the shaft and the housing and comprises an intermediate piece that is engaged with a second connection unit for rotation therewith and that is threadedly engaged with each of the housing and the shaft, wherein a rotation of the second gear and shaft causes the intermediate piece to be axially displaced relative to housing, and
wherein the second connection unit connects the actuator to a second parent assembly.
