Abstract:
A shift actuator includes a motor that drives a drum assembly having a disconnect track and a range track. Operation of the motor rotates the drum assembly about a rotational axis. A fork rod is positioned parallel with the rotational axis. A disconnect fork is slidably coupled with the disconnect track and the fork rod. A range fork is slidably coupled with the range track and the fork rod. The disconnect track and the range track define a plurality of actuating positions of the disconnect fork and the range fork. The plurality of actuating positions are defined by corresponding flat portions of the disconnect track and the range track that maintain a position of the disconnect fork and the range fork, respectively, relative to the fork rod.
