  • Patent number: 11193586
    Abstract: A parking lock for a transmission of a motor vehicle may include a park gear rotatable about an axis of rotation, and an actuation device adjustable into a locking position and an unlocking position radially relative to the axis of rotation. In the unlocking position, rotating of the park gear may be possible, and in the locking position, rotating of the park gear may be prevented by way of positive locking. The actuation device may include a shifting drum and a locking lever, wherein the shifting drum may be rotatable about a guiding axis that is radial relative to the axis of rotation. The locking lever, by way of a guide track formed in the shifting drum, may interact with the guide track so that when the shifting drum is rotated, the locking lever may be guidable by the guide track radially relative to the axis of rotation and parallel to the guiding axis, and thereby the actuation device may be adjustable into the locking position and into the unlocking position.
