Patent number: 7137475Abstract: A shift device, which sends a command signal to an electric actuator for shifting a plurality of gear ranges of a transmission of a vehicle by the electric actuator. The gear ranges include a plurality of drive ranges and a parking range. A shift lever is arranged to move between a neutral position and a plurality of manipulation positions located about the neutral position. A restoration mechanism restores the shift lever to the neutral position. A first sensor electrically detects a manipulation performed to select one of the drive ranges. A second sensor electrically detects a manipulation performed to select the parking range. The first sensor detects toward which of the manipulation positions the shift lever is manipulated.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2004Date of Patent: November 21, 2006Assignee: Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Hiroki Shiomi, Yoji Matsumoto, Akihiro Takezaki, Haruo Tuge, Akinosuke Shindou, Hideki Miyata, Yasuo Hojo, Hideo Tomomatsu
