  • Shifting group, and drive train with a shifting group of this type
    Patent number: 11808305
    Abstract: A shifting group for a drive train of a motor vehicle for coupling and decoupling a drive shaft of a drive train as required, with an actuator for actuating a blocking element, a selector rod and a selector fork which is connected to the selector rod. The first drive shaft and the second drive shaft are arranged coaxially with respect to one another, the blocking element blocks an axial displacement of the selector rod in a first switching position and enables said axial displacement in a second switching position, the selector fork engages into a groove of one of the drive shafts, an actuation of the shifting group brings about an axial displacement of a drive shaft, and a clutch between the first drive shaft and the second drive shaft is opened or closed by way of the axial displacement of the selector fork.
