Zusammenfassung:The invention provides an engagement method for engaging a first gear element with a second gear element, at least the second gear element being mounted to move between a meshing position and a disengaged position by means of an actuator. The engagement method including a step of driving at least one of the gear elements in rotation so as to establish a non-zero difference in speed of rotation between said gear elements, and a step of controlling the actuator to perform the following in succession:moving at least the second gear element towards the meshing position;on detecting contact betweenthe gear elements, stopping the movement of the second gear element; andon detecting an ideal angular position for engaging said gear elements, moving the second gear element as quickly as possible into the meshing position.
