Abstract

A cable operated gearchange control for a vehicle has the selector lever fitted to the upper end of a floor mounted console and with the cable controlling the servo driven gear selector system. The console holds the selector in an ergonomic position and eliminates complex linkages between the selector and the gearbox. The console is rigid and can be mounted on the floor of the vehicle using a hinge. This allows the console and selector to be swung aside for improved access to the driving position.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Schalten eines Getriebes nach der im Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 näher definierten Art. The invention relates to a device for switching a transmission according to the preamble of claim 1 Art.

Bei Nutzfahrzeugen und Bussen finden immer häufiger Getriebe Verwendung, die servounterstützt geschaltet werden. Diese servounterstützten Getriebe ermöglichen einen hohen Schaltkomfort bei gleichzeitig kurzen Schaltwegen und geringen Betätigungskräften. In Verbindung mit einer Seilzugschaltung, die über einen in einer Konsole am Armaturenbrett gelagerten Schalthebel bedienbar sind, eignen sich diese Schaltvorrichtungen nur für geringe Kraftübertragungen, da sich ansonsten die Elastizität der Seilzüge negativ auf den Schaltvorgang auswirken. Um die Höhendifferenz zwischen dem in einer Konsole am Armaturenbrett gelagerten Schalthebel und dem Fahrzeugboden zu überwinden, sind Systeme bekannt, die mit Hilfe von komplizierten Gestängen- und Umlenkungsmechanismen arbeiten. Weiterhin sind aus dem Stand der Technik im Nutzfahrzeug- und Busbereich Fahrzeugbodenschaltungen bekannt, die die Schaltvorgänge über eine langen Schalthebel über einen Drehpunkt am Fahrzeugboden mit hohen Übersetzungen an das Getriebe weiterleiten. Diese bekannten Fahrzeugbodenschaltungen eignen sich aber nicht für kurze Schaltwege, da die auftretenden Seilzugkräfte und -wege ungünstig sind. In commercial vehicles and buses are increasingly common Gear use that is servo-assisted become. These servo-assisted gearboxes make it possible high switching comfort with short switching distances and low actuation forces. In conjunction with a Cable control, which has a in a console on Dashboard-mounted shift levers are operable, are suitable these switching devices only for small Power transmission, as otherwise the elasticity of the cables is negative affect the switching process. About the height difference between that stored in a console on the dashboard Shift levers and the vehicle floor to be overcome Systems known that with the help of complicated linkage and redirection mechanisms work. Furthermore, from the State of the art in the commercial vehicle and bus sector Vehicle floor circuits known that the switching operations on a long shift lever over a pivot point on the vehicle floor forward to the transmission with high gear ratios. This known vehicle floor circuits are not suitable for short switching distances, because the occurring cable tensile forces and - are unfavorable.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde eine Vorrichtung zum Schalten eines Getriebes darzustellen, die über einen in einer Konsole am Armaturenbrett gelagerten Schalthebel bedienbar ist und die Verwendung eines Seilzuges zur Betätigung von servounterstützten Getrieben ermöglicht. The present invention is based on the object to represent a device for shifting a transmission, the one in a console on the dashboard stored shift lever is operable and the use of a Cable for operating servo-assisted gearboxes allows.

Die der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe wird durch eine, auch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Hauptanspruchs aufweisende, gattungsgemäße Vorrichtung zum Schalten eines Getriebes gelöst. The object underlying the invention is achieved by one, also the characteristic features of the main claim having generic device for switching a Gearbox released.

Durch die Verwendung einer zusätzlichen Konsole zur Führung des Seilzuges kann eine Vorrichtung zum Schalten eines Getriebes in Form einer im Fahrzeugboden geführten Seilzugschaltung dargestellt werden, die über einen in einer Konsole gelagerten Schalthebel bedienbar ist. Die zusätzliche Konsole zur Führung des Seilzuges ermöglicht weiterhin eine ergonomische Anordnung des Schalthebels, die optimal sowohl für die Bedienung als auch für den Einstieg des Fahrers ausgelegt werden kann. Die zusätzliche Konsole kann schwenkbar ausgeführt werden, um einem Fahrer den Einstieg zum Fahrersitz zu erleichtern. Durch die geringere erforderliche Umlenkung des Seilzuges entstehen geringere Seilkräfte und ein besserer Wirkungsgrad und dadurch auch ein erhöhter Schaltkomfort. Die zusätzliche Konsole kann individuell an den Fahrzeugtyp angepasst werden, ohne daß dabei die ganze Vorrichtung geändert werden muß. So ist ein individueller Aufbau und eine variable Schräglage der Vorrichtung zum Schalten des Getriebes möglich. Dies führt zu einer wirtschaftlichen Lösung bei gleichzeitig hoher Variabilität. By using an additional console Guiding the cable can be a device for switching a transmission in the form of a guided in the vehicle floor Cable control can be shown, which over a in a shift lever mounted on the console can be operated. The additional console for guiding the cable enables continue to have an ergonomic arrangement of the gear lever ideal for both operation and entry of the driver can be designed. The additional console can be pivoted to the driver To facilitate entry to the driver's seat. By the lesser the required deflection of the cable is less Rope forces and better efficiency and therefore also increased shifting comfort. The additional console can can be individually adapted to the vehicle type without the whole device must be changed. So is one individual structure and a variable inclination of the Device for switching the transmission possible. this leads to an economical solution with a high one Variability.

Vorteilhafte und zweckmäßige Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben. Die Erfindung ist aber nicht auf die Merkmalskombinationen der Ansprüche beschränkt, vielmehr ergeben sich für den Fachmann weitere sinnvolle Kombinationsmöglichkeiten von Ansprüchen und einzelnen Anspruchsmerkmalen aus der Aufgabenstellung. Advantageous and expedient configurations of the Invention are specified in the subclaims. The However, the invention is not based on the combinations of features Claims limited, rather arise for the expert further sensible combinations of requirements and individual claim characteristics from the task.

Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles prinzipgemäß beschrieben. The invention is based on a Embodiment described in principle.

Die einzige Figur zeigt eine schematische Darstellung einer erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung zum Schalten eines Getriebes. The only figure shows a schematic representation an inventive device for switching a Transmission.
