Abstract

A controlling arrangement for a motor vehicle gear shift transmission has a central component shift piece which interacts with several shift rails disposed next to one another and assigned to the individual transmission gears and with a shift rail lock mechanism that, when one shift rail respectively is moved, locks the remaining shift rails. A shift finger mounted on the shift piece has involute flanks on both sides, which flanks rest against plane V-surfaces of a V-shaped recess of the shift rail to be controlled. Locking cams of the locking mechanism rest against the V-surfaces of the other shift rails and are axially and radially offset with respect to the shift finger mounted on the shift piece.
