A gear shifting device is provided, by which an axial shift movement of a shift element into a shift position through interaction of a shift pin with an associated groove-like shift gate that is changeable in an axial direction. The shift element features, on an inner diameter and/or an outer diameter, the associated shift gate, while the respective shift pin is arranged in a radially opposite and displaceable manner on a transmission component adjacent to the shift element. As an alternative, the shift element, on an inner diameter and/or an outer diameter, accommodates the respective shift pin in a radially displaceable manner, whereas the associated shift gate for the respective shift gate is arranged to be radially opposite on a transmission component located adjacent to the shift element. The shift pin is movable through an associated actuator in a radial manner between an initial position and a mesh position in which each shift pin is introduced into the associated shift gate.

A transmission includes a fork mechanism in which a plurality of fork rods to which a plurality of shift forks are connected are each attached to a pedestal so as to be moveable in an axial direction. An assembly guide portion is disposed on the pedestal and a guide pin is erected on a clutch housing. As a result, even in cases where an input shaft and a main shaft, on which driving and driven gears and synchro devices are assembled, are assembled on the clutch housing in a state that the driving and driven gears are engaged and, thereafter the fork mechanism is assembled on this clutch housing, the assembly of the fork mechanism on the clutch housing can be easily performed.

A shift track selection rod and a shifting element are provided which can be connected to one another without additional fastening elements. A system consists of the shift track selection rod and the shifting element. A transmission actuator includes the system. A transmission includes the system or the transmission actuator.

A gear shifting apparatus for a multi-speed transmission includes: a shifting unit controlling gear shifting by a torque of an actuator; and a parking unit controlling a parking state by the torque of the actuator. In particular, the actuator includes a control motor transmitting a driving torque to driven gears of the shifting and parking units through a drive gear, and the shifting unit includes: a fork slider slidably mounted on a fork rail; a shift fork integrally formed with the fork slider; a finger drum connected to a first driven gear engaged with the drive gear, and having a finger end; and a shift lug that rotates about a lug shaft and includes two lug ends having a different length from each other. The shift lug interacts with the finger end, and has a coupler end coupled with a pocket portion formed at the fork slider.
