Abstract
A ONE-PIECE GEARSHIFT LEVER WITH COLD FORMED END
ABSTRACT
A gearshift lever and a method of forming the lever is disclosed. The lever includes a one-piece shaft with a functional end and an operative end, the functional end being cold formed to a specific configuration for mechanical cooperation with components auxiliary to the lever. A channel region is provided along the shaft between the functional and operative ends for running electrical wire between the functional and operative ends, and a shaft covering material surrounds the channel region for containing the electrical wire within the channel region. The cold forming of the functional end of the lever reduces the cost of manufacturing the lever. In an alternative embodiment, the shaft of the lever is provided with a hollow bore along the length of the shaft for enclosing the wires.

Description
A ONE-PIECE GEARSHIFT LEV}:R WITH COLD FORMED END
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to gear shift levers and specifically to levers having a cold formed functional end. The invention also relates to gearshift levers with a channel along the length of the lever for receiving and enclosing wires therein.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In the past, there has been a need for a one-piece gearshift lever that is simple and inexpensive to manufacture through cold forming of the functional end of the lever. There has also been a need for a lever formed by this method that enables wires to run along the length of lever between the knob or operative end and the functional end of the lever to enable an electrical switch to be positioned at the operative end of the lever for actuation of an electrical system, for example, an overdrive system.
Past methods of forming gearbox levers with wires along the length of the lever have included drilling the centre of a piece of steel which further requires subsegue~t deburring operations to reduce the risk of wear on the wire by metal burrs created during drilling. Other methods of forming gearshift levers have included complex welding operations. These operations also add to the cost of manufacturing.
U.S. Patent No. 4,162,384 discloses an electrical switch mounted on a knob, with the switch terminal connected to wires which extend down the exterior of the gearshift stick. This patent ,!,.'~', , . . - .
'''~^'''' ' ' ' ' ': : ,, :~
shows a wire extending within the protective sleeve and over the shift stick. In another embodimen~, this patent also shows a wire extending down the hollow interior of stick exiting at the bottom through a slot.
~ - This patent does not disclose a gearshift lever made of a one piece formed metal tube in combination with a cold formed linkage end which is formed to a specific shape. In addition, where the wire extends under a protective sleeve this patent does not disclose a slot through which the electrical wire runs fr~m the switch to the linkage end, running axially along the length of the gearshift lever.
PCT International Application No. WO 91/02912 discloses a lever consisting of a cylindrical pipe inserted in a cavity of a knob. A contact element is part of an electrical switch in the lever and the knob is in contact with an isolated connecting lead.
The contact is connected to an electrical circuit through a connecting lead. Both the contact element and connecting lead are outside of the cylindrical shaped pipe. This patent does not disclose the running of a connecting lead (wiring) through a cylindrical tube from a switch to a gearshift lever linka~e end, or a gearshift lever made of one piece of a formed metal tube in combination with a functional end which is cold formed to a specific shape.
Canadian Patent No. 838,757 discloses an electrical control switch movably mounted on an actuating lever having a tubular housing member within which is located a contact asse~bly.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
! Referring to Figure 1, a gearshift lever 10 is shown ~ having an elongated, contoured shaft 12, an operative end 14i 25 including a knob portion 28 and a functional end 16.
j Shaft 12 may be of relatively small diameter, thick wall steel tubing drawn over a mandrel (DOM tu~ing). The shaft 12 is provided with an internal channel 18 formed during the drawing process and extending between the functional end 16 and operative l end 14 of the shaft 12. The internal channel 18 is also provided ¦ with an exit orifice 26 which may be positioned at the junction 2()96913 between the functional end 16 and the shaft 12 or alternatively, along shaft 12 or within functional end 16. Shaft 12 may be either ~traight or curved in shape depending on the styling requirements of the vehicle concerned as shown in Fig. 2.
The functional end 16 is cold formed to a desired shape for mechanical cooperation with components auxiliary to the gearshift lever 10, for example a manual or automatic gearbox. Cold forming involves squeezing the tubing to form an end of a specific shape. The procedure of cold forming the functional end 16 is less expensive than broaching operations typically employed in producing gearbox levers. The particular configuration of the functional end 16 may be one of a variety of shapes depending upon the specific linkage desired. The cold forming process results in functional end 16 which may be of narrower or wider dimensions relative to the shaft 12 diameter as shown in Figures 3 and 4. A bore 24 (Fig. 3) may be subsequently milled in the functional end 16 if desired.
The operative end 14 of the shaft 12 is adapted for attachment of a knob portion 28 which may be attached thereto by a press-fit or by any suitable method to the operative end 14. Knob portion 28 is of a larger diame~er than shaft 12 and contoured in order to facilitate manual grasping thereof for operation and control of the lever 10. Knob portion 28 is also provided with a push-button switch 22, electrically connected to wires 20 passing through channel 18 and the knob portion 28 as shown in Figure 5.
In another embodiment of the invention, shaft 12 may be formed of a solid rod of steel with a channel 30 milled along the length of the shaft 12 as shown in Figure 6. Wires 20 are passed from the functional end 16 to the operative end 14 through the channel 30. A suitable shaft covering material 32 is applied over 't" 2096913 the shaft 12 to contain the wires 20 within channel 30. Shaft covering material 32 is preferably a single tube of heat shrinkable material or another suitable material such as a tape.
The terms and expressions which have been employed in this specification are used as terms of description and not of limitations, and there is no intention in the use of such terms and expressions to exclude any equivalents of the features shown and described or portions thereof, but it is recognized that various modifications are possible within the scope of the claims.
