Detent-receiving sleeve for a shift shaft

摘要

A control sleeve for a gear selector is fitted around the gear change shaft and has control profiles engaged by control elements to ensure that the axial and rotational movements of the shaft align with the gear settings. The sleeve is assembled from separate parts and in particular the outer sleeve (12) which is made in two halves and fitted with the outer profiles (5) which define the gear settings. Each part is manufactured by conventional means and no part, nor the whole assembly requires any costly forging as for conventionally produced control sleeves.
