Abstract: A selector lever assembly for selecting and shifting to various driving modes in a vehicle transmission may include a rotary knob that is connected to a shaft element supported in a housing, where the driving modes are assigned to the rotational range of the shaft element, and separated from one another by a latching contour that can be felt by a driver, and where the rotation of the shaft element can be blocked by a locking contour, and where the shaft element is connected to a disk element for conjoint rotation, but can be displaced axially in order to activate and deactivate at least one further function mode.

Abstract: A selector lever assembly for selecting and shifting to various driving modes in a vehicle transmission may have a rotary switch that is rotatably mounted in a housing, where the driving modes are assigned to the rotational range and separated from one another by a latching contour in a manner that can be felt by a driver, where the rotational movement of the rotary switch can be blocked by a locking contour, and where the locking contour and latching contour are integrally formed on the rotary switch.

Abstract: The present approach relates to a release device (105) for a vehicle (100) for detecting at least one position of a drive unit (106) in, or in the vicinity of, a slide unit (108). The release device (105) comprises at least the drive unit (106), the slide unit (108), and a sensor system (109). The drive unit (106) is or can be located at least partially in the slide unit (108) of the release device (105) in a first position, in order to lock or engage a parking lock (110) of the vehicle (100), and at least partially removed form the slide unit (108) in a second position, in order to release or disengage the parking lock (110). The slide unit (108) is configured to at least partially receive the drive unit (106) in at least the first position of the drive unit (106).
