Abstract
An operating device for transmission comprising a change lever, a shift cable connected to the change lever, a bell crank, a select cable connected to the first arm of the bell crank, a bearing base, an operating shaft of which the middle part is fixed with the change lever, a first bearing provided on the bearing base to be connected with a supported end of the operating shaft rotatably and inclinably, a second bearing provided at the free end of the operating shaft for the rotatable connection with the second arm of the bell crank, a fixed shaft, of which one end is fixed to the bearing base, projecting from the bearing base, a third bearing provided at the other end of the fixed shaft to support the middle part of the bell crank rotatably and a spring disposed so as to be inserted by the fixed shaft with both ends fixed to the operating shaft. The operating device has an advantageous compact construction because the change lever can be disposed near the center of the device and no additional space is required for the inclination of the change lever. Further the device can be assembled and installed easily and economically because all major parts are mounted on the two shafts and the device can be pre-assembled prior to the installation thereof.
