Abstract
A dual push-pull cable controlled remote gearshift mechanism in which a control shaft is rocked about one axis to swing one cable actuator member and is rocked about a second axis transverse to the first to swing a second cable actuator member, with the coupling between the first cable and the first actuator member being substantially aligned with the transverse axis and offset from the longitudinal axis, and with the operating connection between the second actuator member and the second cable being substantially aligned with the longitudinal axis of the control shaft and offset from the transverse axis thereof. In the receiver unit, first and second coaxially interengaged shifter members are coupled to the respective cables through lever-type actuated members, one through a form of coupling that shifts one such shifter member axially in relation to the other, and the other coupling being such as to rotate the shifter members conjointly through the first shifter member in any of its axially shifted positions.
