ABSTRACT:
In a manual transmission having a gear which is axially slidable from its neutral position to its operating position, there is provided a gear operating mechanism which is constructed to positively prevent the undesirable "gear disengagement phenomenon". The mechanism comprises an operating lever pivotable about a first axis relative to the transmission case to move the gear between the neutral position and the operating position; a handling lever pivotable about a second axis relative to the transmission case, the second axis being parallel with the first axis; a link pivotally connecting the operating and handling levers through pivot pins so that the link is pivotable about a third axis relative to the operating lever or vice versa and the link is pivotable about a fourth axis relative to the handling lever or vice versa; and means for pivotally moving the handling lever about the second axis in response to the movement of a speed change shift lever of the transmission, wherein the operating lever, the handling lever and the link are so arranged and constructed that when they assume respective positions to cause the gear to assume the operating position, the second, third and fourth axes come into alignment with one and other.
