MANUAL TRANSMISSION LOCK FOR PARKING ASSISTANCE
20230043711 · 2023-02-09 ·

A gearshift lock for a gearbox includes a gearshift cylinder and a pawl wheel with a toothing. The gearshift lock includes a rotatably positioned pawl, and the pawl engages in the toothing of the pawl wheel in a locked position, and is disengaged from the pawl wheel in a freewheeling position. The pawl is pretensioned by a spring element in the direction of the locked position, and an engagement element is connected to the pawl. The engagement element holds the pawl in the freewheeling position by directly interacting with the gearshift cylinder against the effect of the spring element when the gearshift cylinder takes up a rotational position in a freewheeling rotational range, and the pawl can be released from the gearshift cylinder into a locked position by the engagement element when the gearshift cylinder takes up a rotational position in a locked rotational range.
