  • Patent number: 11021152
    Abstract: A driving system for an electric vehicle may include a shift assembly receiving power from a motor, and providing a plurality of shift gears using a plurality of meshed external gear pairs, a clutch intermittently transferring power from the motor to the shift assembly, a gear lever allowing a driver to sequentially select a plurality of assigned positions that are discontinuously disposed, a position sensor detecting the assigned positions to which the gear lever sequentially moves, on the basis of continuous changes in physical quantities, a clutch actuator actuating the clutch, a shift actuator actuating the shift assembly to change gear shifts, and a controller configured for controlling the clutch actuator, the shift actuator, and the motor to change gear shifts by receiving signals from the position sensor.

  • Publication number: 20150167842
    Abstract: A shifting device for a vehicle may include a control rod disposed on a support and being configured to rotate and slide straight, a shift lever mounted on the control rod to rotate the control rod about the support by moving straight, a driven arm disposed on the support and rotatable about a rotation axis parallel to the control rod, an inertial body disposed at a free end of the driven arm, and an arm rotating mechanism engaging the shift lever and the driven arm to transmit a rotation of the shift lever to the driven arm.
