Abstract

The invention relates to a setting device for an adjustable gearing mechanism, in particular, for selecting a parking position in an automatic transmission. The inventive setting device comprises a mechanical setting element, an intermediate gearing mechanism for transferring the setting motion of the setting element to a control element of the adjustable gearing mechanism. A mechanical energy store, which can be replenished once again by the setting element, is provided for driving the intermediate mechanism when the setting element malfunctions.
