Patent ID: 8082085

Claim:
A Method for shifting a gear into a gear position in an automated shift transmission with several gears, comprising at least one movable shifting fork guiding a shifting sleeve and having at least one sensor for determining the position of the shifting fork or the shifting sleeve, wherein the shifting fork is movable starting from a neutral position into the direction of the gear position, and wherein at a pull-in position of the shifting fork between the neutral position and the gear position a pull-in effect starts, forcing the shifting sleeve by a force in direction of the gear position, said method comprising the following method steps: A: checking whether the shifting fork has reached a first threshold value that is between the position and the gear position; B: checking whether the shifting fork has reached a second threshold value that is as viewed from the neutral position reached before reaching the position, and checking whether the shifting fork has come to a standstill between the second threshold value and the first threshold value, C: applying an increased force in the direction of the gear position onto the shifting fork if the shifting fork has come to a standstill between the second threshold value and the first threshold value; and D: generating a signal indicating that the gear position has been reached when the shifting fork has reached the first threshold value or when the increased shifting force has at least been applied over a time and after expiration of the time a further standstill of the shifting fork has been determined.
