Embodiment Construction

[0032] A preferred embodiment of the inventive transmission system mounted on a vehicle is as figure 1 shown, where only selected parts of the vehicle are shown to allow viewing of the inventive transmission system. figure 1 Two positions of the transmission system are shown, an operating position with no cab (not shown) tilted and a tilted position with the cab fully tilted forward.

[0033] The transmission system includes a joystick 1, which is operatively mounted on the cab floor 21 via a joystick bracket 3 (see figure 2). The joystick bracket 3 is secured to the cab floor 21 and extends downwardly through an opening in the cab floor 21 to provide a pivot joint having a pivot axis A horizontally and transversely oriented relative to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. Below the cab floor 21 an elongated cable guide member 9 is pivotally connected to a pivot joint provided by the joystick bracket 3 . There are two cables 11, one end of each is connected to the cable g...

Abstract

The present invention refers to a gear shift system for a vehicle with a tiltable driver's cabin comprising an actuation lever (1) operably mounted to the driver's cabin, a flexible control cable (11) coupled to the actuation lever (1) for transferring shift commands towards a gear box, and a cable guide (9) arranged to guide the control cable (11), characterised in that the cable guide (9) is pivotally connected to the driver's cabin, such that the cable guide (9) is able to pivot relative to the driver's cabin when the driver's cabin is tilted relative to the vehicle frame (17).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a transmission system for a vehicle with a tiltable cab, comprising a joystick operatively mounted to the cab, a flexible control cable connected to the joystick for transmitting mechanical commands to the gearbox, and a device Cable guide for guiding control cables. Background technique [0002] In heavy vehicles such as trucks the main engine is typically located under the cab. The cab is usually pivotally attached to the frame for ease of service and maintenance. The pivot axis between the cab and the frame is always located very far forward in the vehicle and its orientation is transverse with respect to the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. Thus, the cab can be tilted forward to allow full access to the main engine. [0003] Understandably, this tilting mechanism poses problems for all units providing communication between the cab and the rest of the vehicle. In particular, mechanical communication such as...
