Abstract
A transmission manipulation device for a manual transmission includes a single main fork shaft provided in a main chamber of a transmission case, a plurality of shift forks axially movably mounted on the main fork shaft and associated with respective transmission clutch mechanisms, a shift and select lever shaft axially movably and rotatably provided in the main chamber to extend in the direction perpendicular to the main fork shaft, an auxiliary fork shaft provided in an auxiliary chamber of the transmission case to extend in parallel with the main fork shaft, and a shift fork fixed to the auxiliary fork shaft and associated with a transmission clutch mechanism in the auxiliary chamber. The shift and select lever shaft has a projection which is selectively engageable with the engaging portion of any one of the shift forks as the lever shaft is moved in the axial direction and rotation of the lever shaft causes movement of any one of the shift forks in the axial direction of the main fork shaft. The projection of the lever shaft is selectively engageable with an engaging portion which is provided on the auxiliary fork shaft and arranged in side-by-side relation to the engaging portions of the shift forks mounted on the main fork shaft.
