Abstract
A manual gearbox section for a vehicle includes a section input, a section output, a freewheel device situated in a freewheel torque path between the section input and the section output, and a clutch device situated in a clutch torque path between the section input and the section output. The clutch torque path forms a bypass path with respect to the freewheel device and/or the freewheel torque path. The freewheel device is in the form of a rotational-speed-dependent freewheel device. The freewheel device is in a freewheeling state at a first rotational speed and in a coupled state at a second rotational speed. The second rotational speed is higher than the first rotational speed.
