Abstract
A gear shift actuator includes a linear drive assembly having a supported rotary member that is axially unmovable, an electric motor for rotating the rotary member, and a driven component engaged by the rotary member to transmit rotary movement into a linear axial movement of the driven component to drive a shift fork between a neutral and a first gear engaged position. The assembly includes wherein the rotary member has a hollow cylindrical sleeve having a first cam follower and the driven component has a first barrel cam that receives the cam follower and is supported in the sleeve by a central rod to be slidably axially moveable but locked against rotational movements. The supported central rod is also axially moveable but locked against rotational movements and carries a second end stop at a distance to the first barrel cam and is configured to be linked to a shift fork.
