Abstract
A gearbox for a motor vehicle having at least one input shaft and one output shaft and including a plurality of gears. The gears can be engaged and disengaged by an actuator. The gearbox further includes a parking brake that can be actuated by a gear change actuator and that serves to block rotation of the output shaft. The parking brake can be a gear and pawl arrangement in which the pawl is selectively engageable with the gear to prevent gear rotation, or it can be in the form of a shiftable jaw clutch.
