"slapstick"-shifter

[PaulMV]

Har sett på nokon gamle amerikanske biler at dei har

"slapstick" shifter...kva er det?

[bleidd]

Det er ikke "stickshift" da? Manuelt gir

[drkaos]

Eller dog-shift? Sekvensiell kasse uten bruk av clutch, hvor du rykker til fra gir til gir.

Kanskje det er at (automat)girspaken sitter på høyresiden av rattet, slik den gjør i Chrysler Voyager?

 

Liker å gjette på nye ord. Noen som har spilt Kokkelimonke her?

Nei det har noe med at du bare kan "dytte" giret inn i gir feks. fra Fri til 1, uten å måtte trykke på "gearlås-knappen" samtidig. Tar jeg ikke helt feil fungerer de aller fleste automatgir på denne måten idag?

For an automatic the slap stick is pretty simple. (I once had a Camero with one)

 

With an automatic you usually need to press something on the shifter in order to get it to shift from one gear to another.

 

Basically there is a piece of metal with a series of notches in it. There is a flange attached to the shift that rests in any of the notches. each notch is at a gear position like thus:

 

IIII_P_IIII_R_IIII_N_IIII_D_IIII_L _IIII

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

 

When you press the shifter button, it lifts the flange so that you can move it to a new position.

 

With a slap stick the arrangement is slightly different.

 

something like this:

 

IIII_P_IIII_R_

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII_N_____D_IIII_L_IIII

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

 

Now you still have to push the shifter to leave park, but from reverse or neutral all you have to do is "slap" the stick back until it drops into drive. (but notice that if you slap the stick forward from drive you only can get as far as neutral; which prevents you from accidentally knocking the car into reverse while driving down the freeway.)
