Abstract

A transmission device for a vehicle comprises a common linearly movable selector rod for selecting the drive mode of the transmission and for actuating a parking brake. The driving mode is determined by a rack formed on the rod and engageable with a pinion, and the parking brake is actuated by means of a lever controlled by a cam carried by the rod.
