Electrically driven device comprising a housing (4), an electric motor (1) with a drive shaft (2) having a drive pin (3) eccentrically connected to the drive shaft (2) and a driven shaft (12) mounted in the housing (4) for performing a pivoting which is indirectly coupled to the drive shaft (2) by a gear mechanism comprising a scotch yoke mechanism (5, 7) converting a rotary motion of the drive shaft (2) into a reciprocating pivoting motion of the driven shaft (12) which comprises a cross slider (7) receiving the drive pin (3) and having a sliding support (6) which extends perpendicular to the drive shaft (2), wherein the cross slider (7) is guided in the housing (4) by means of at least two elastically deformable elements (8). The driven shaft (12) is coupled to the cross slider (7) by means of a pivotable crank arm (13).
