  • Patent number: 11433921
    Abstract: A parking assist system includes: a control device configured to control a vehicle, a vehicle position detecting device configured to detect a position of the vehicle; a shift device configured to be operated for changing a shift position; and a brake input member configured to be operated for driving a brake device. In a case where the vehicle is stopped at a position other than a target position and a switching position, the control device changes the shift position to a parking position or a neutral position unless a shift maintenance condition is satisfied. The shift maintenance condition includes at least one of condition (i) that the vehicle is stopped at a position out of a prescribed range according to an operation of the brake input member and a condition (ii) that a cause for which the vehicle has been stopped is removed.

  • Patent number: 11427186
    Abstract: A parking assist system moves a vehicle autonomously from a current position to a target position. The parking assist system includes: a driving device configured to drive the vehicle; a control device configured to execute a setting process to set the target position and a driving process to control the driving device; a setting reception switch configured to receive an operation for starting the setting process; a driving reception switch configured to receive an operation for starting the driving process; a brake input member sensor configured to detect an input operation of a brake input member. The control device starts the setting process after the setting reception switch is operated, and starts the driving process on condition that a prescribed operation is performed when the driving reception switch is operated. The prescribed operation includes the input operation on the brake input member.
