An electrical actuation for an automatic transmission, preferably for selection actuation in automobiles in which a four-bar linkage transmission and a worm gear unit are arranged between the electric drive and the transmission. Shifting can be carried out with a low-output drive, particularly in the parked shifting position 'P', also when very large forces are required such as those occurring when the vehicle is parked on a hill.

Actuator for an automatic transmission provided with electrical actuation

An electrical actuation for an automatic transmission, preferably for selection actuation in automobiles in which a four-bar linkage transmission and a worm gear unit are arranged between the electric drive and the transmission. Shifting can be carried out with a low-output drive, particularly in the parked shifting position &ldquo;P&rdquo;, also when very large forces are required such as those occurring when the vehicle is parked on a hill.

A transmission shift control assembly comprising a housing ( ) presenting a support ( ) and a lever ( ) pivotally is supported by the housing ( ) for movement between shift positions. A mechanical connection ( ) produces rectilinear movement in response to pivotal movement of the lever ( ) and a core element ( ) is connected to the mechanical connection ( ) for receiving the rectilinear movement. A casing ( ) movably supports the core element ( ) and is supported in the support ( ). The casing ( ) includes a swivel tube ( ) supported by a fitting ( ) for swiveling movement relative thereto. The invention is characterized by an electrical sensor ( ) supported by the swivel tube ( ) for measuring the rectilinear movement of the core element( ).
