Abstract

Disclosed herein is a transmission mechanism in a manual transmission which may eliminate unsmooth movement of the shift fork along the fork shaft during a shift operation so as to improve the feeling of shift-and-select operation. According to the present invention, the shift fork which is selected by the axial movement of the shift-and-select lever shaft is effective to move together with the fork shaft at substantially same speed by the rotation of the lever shaft. For this purpose, the fork shaft is axially movably mounted on the transmission casing and is connected to the lever shaft.
