ABSTRACT:
A transmission operating device for performing a shifting operation and a selecting operation of a transmission by pushing or pulling two inner wires of two control cables, comprising: a change speed lever; a connecting arm with which the two inner wires are connected at both ends of the arm; and a cylindrical casing provided at a middle point between the two points where the two inner wires are connected with the connecting arm, wherein the change speed lever is perpendicularly provided to the connecting arm by the cylindrical casing, the connecting arm is made to move in the direction that the inner wires are pushed or pulled by operating the change speed lever in one direction and is made to swing in the direction perpendicular to the direction that the inner wires are pushed or pulled by operating the change speed lever in the other direction, and the connecting arm has a rotational center so that the swinging motion of the connecting arm in the direction perpendicular to the direction that the inner wires are pulled or pushed is changed into a motion that the connecting arm rotates around the rotational center in a plane substantially parallel to the two inner wires of the two control cables. According to the transmission operating device using control cables of the present invention, a driver can operate the device without feeling a physical disorder, since the selecting operation and the shifting operation can be performed by obeying to the generally used operational form.
