Abstract
A parking lock arrangement for a motor vehicle transmission has a housing. A parking lock wheel is connectable to a shaft of the motor vehicle transmission. A parking lock pawl is pivotable between a parking lock position and a release position about a pawl axis mounted on the housing. In the parking lock position, the parking lock pawl is in engagement with the parking lock wheel and prevents the rotation thereof. The parking lock arrangement comprises an actuating mechanism for the parking lock pawl and an actuator arrangement for the actuating mechanism. The actuator arrangement has a control member which is movable between a home position and a parking position and is coupled to the actuating mechanism. An actuating member is coupled to the control member via a releasable coupling device and to the actuating mechanism, wherein the actuating member is furthermore mechanically preloaded in one direction in order, via the actuating mechanism, to press the parking lock pawl into the parking lock position. The coupling device is designed in such a manner that it is releasable by means of an electric release signal.
