Abstract
A gearshift fork ( ) for a manual transmission of an automotive vehicle is fixed on a selector rod and engages with its bifurcated section into a peripheral groove of a sliding sleeve. The bifurcated section ( ) extends transversely of the central longitudinal axis of the selector rod and comprises a stiffening. To create an economic configuration of the gearshift fork ( ) and enable a production in large series, the gearshift fork is manufactured as a complete component by shaping without chip removal.
