Abstract
A gearshifting arrangement for actuating motor vehicle multi-speed transmissions wherein an electromotive actuation takes place, it being essential that only one electric motor (1) connected with only one cam transmission (4) and only one gearshifting element are provided for actuating all gearshifting sets. The gearshifting element is a connecting rod (5) capable of moving parallel to the axis of the transmission wheels and in which are provided individually actuatable coupling mechanisms (11) respectively associated with a gearshifting lever. The electric motor (1), the spatial cam transmission (4) and the connecting rod (5) are coaxially arranged whereby a very simple and space-saving embodiment is achieved.
