Translatory activation device with indirect latching

摘要

An activation device for selecting shift stages of a shift-by-wire vehicle transmission comprises a housing and an activation knob which can be moved in a translatory fashion and a latching device with a latching pin and latching contour as latching elements for generating latching forces and restoring forces. The activation device is defined by a latching gearwheel which is in engagement with a toothing arrangement on the activation knob. In this context, one of the two latching elements is connected to the latching gearwheel and in this way forms a rotatable latching element. The second latching element is directly or indirectly connected to the base housing and forms the fixed latching element.

1. An activation device for the selection of shift stages of a shift-by-wire transmission, the activation device comprising:
a base housing; an activation knob configured to move translationally with respect to the base housing; a latching device, the latching device having a latching pin and a latching contour as latching elements for generating latching forces and restoring forces; a latching gearwheel engaged with a toothing arrangement on the activation knob, wherein a face of the latching gearwheel is rotatable within a plane; a first latching element wherein the first latching element is either the latching pin or the latching contour, the first latching element connected to the latching gearwheel to form a rotatable latching element; and a second latching element wherein the second latching element is either the latching pin or the latching contour, the second latching element coupled to the base housing to form a fixed latching element, wherein at least a portion of the activation knob is located on the same side of the plane as the latching contour.
