ABSTRACT:
An operating device for a motor vehicle transmission is described which has a shift lever which, for shifting between transmission ratios, is movably mounted on the motor vehicle. In particular, the shift lever can be shifted in a respective shifting channel about a shifting axis essentially in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle and, for selecting between different shifting channels, can be swivelled in at least one selection channel about a selection axis essentially in the transverse direction of the vehicle. A motion gearing connects the shift lever with at least one transmission control shaft of a motor vehicle transmission, in which case a motor vehicle transmission case is linked to the motion gearing. The shift lever is mounted on a vehicle-body-fixed vehicle part and, in a projection onto a shifting plane, the motion gearing consists of at least one parallelogram linkage. During a shifting and/or selecting movement of the shift lever, three rods of the linkage are changed in their position and one rod maintains its position which, on its one end is swivellably mounted in the shifting plane on a vehicle part fixed to the vehicle body and, on its other end, is movably connected with the motor vehicle transmission case by way of at least so many degrees of freedom that any spatial movement of the motor vehicle transmission is possible without causing reaction forces in the motion gearing.
