Shifting device
View Patent ↗A shifting device including at least one shifting element secured axially on the shaft longitudinally in at least one direction of extension of the longitudinal axis of the shaft by a bearing element on the shaft. The shifting element has transversely projecting fingers.
1. A shifting device comprising:
a shaft having a longitudinal axis;
at least one shifting element positioned on the shaft, the at least one shifting element protruding transversely from the longitudinal axis of the shaft away from the shaft in at least one direction, and the at least one shifting element being fixed longitudinally on the shaft in mutually opposite directions of extension of the longitudinal axis;
a bearing supporting the shaft;
the shaft being transversely supported in the bearing with respect to the longitudinal axis, and the shaft being mounted moveably in the bearing;
at least one bearing element positioned at the bearing and longitudinally securing the at least one shifting element in at least one of the directions of extension, and the at least one bearing element being moveable in the bearing, engaging around the longitudinal axis, being seated fixedly on the shaft and being supported in the bearing.
2. The shifting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one shifting element is seated on the shaft in a form-fitting manner about the longitudinal axis and is rotationally fixed with respect to the shaft.
3. The shifting device as claimed in claim 2 , further comprising a profiled shaft and hub connection connecting the at least one shifting element to the shaft.
4. The shifting device as claimed in claim 3 , further comprising:
a hub engaging the at least one shifting element around the shaft; and
at least one key formed with the at least one shifting element and protruding from the hub in the direction of the longitudinal axis, a longitudinal groove in the shaft, and the at least one shifting element engages with the at least one key in the longitudinal groove,
wherein the at least one key engages in the longitudinal groove, and the at least one key corresponds with the longitudinal groove in a form-fitting manner at least in the circumferential direction.
5. The shifting device as claimed in claim 3 , the at least one shifting element comprising at least two shifting elements arranged adjacent to one another on the shaft and being secured by the at least one bearing element.
6. The shifting device as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the at least one shifting element is directed away transversely from the longitudinal axis at least in a first direction, and at least one other shifting element is directed transversely away from the longitudinal axis in at least a second direction different from the first direction.
7. The shifting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one shifting element has at least one shifting finger.
8. The shifting device as claimed in claim 1 , the at least one bearing element comprising two bearing elements lying opposite each other on the shaft and holding the at least one shifting element between the two bearing elements.
9. The shifting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one bearing element comprises an inner ring of the bearing, the at least one bearing element positioned to support the shaft radially.
10. The shifting device as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the inner ring has a circumference with a track and trochoidal rolling contact bodies of the bearing positioned in the track.
11. The shifting device as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the inner ring is displaceable in the bearing at least in the directions of extension.
12. The shifting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one bearing element is an inner ring of a combined bearing for mounting the shaft, and the at least one bearing element is moveable longitudinally in at least one of the directions of extension and is pivotable about the longitudinal axis.
