Switching device for the gearing of a cross-country vehicle

Abstract

Abstract 1. Gear-changing device for the gearbox of a cross-country vehicle that consists of several vehicle parts displaceably connected with each other, wherein the driver's position with the gear-changing device is arranged in one of the vehicle parts and the gear box is arranged in the other of the displaceably interconnected vehicle parts, with a gear shift lever as well actuating members each with a notch in which the end of the gear shift lever engages for gear selection, characterized in that the actuating members are each formed as a two-armed lever (8) with a notch (7a) at one of the ends of the lever arm and are arranged on a common pivotal axis (9) in parallel with and at a distance behind each other in a shift-housing (4) spatially separated from the gearbox, and that the other end of the lever arm of the actuating member (8) opposite to the notch (7a) is secured to a cable control mechanism (11) which actuates the gear-engaging mechanism (15) disposed in the other vehicle part.
