  • Patent number: 10663060
    Abstract: A shift lever mechanism has a neutral (N) range shift lock, the shift lever mechanism configured such that when shifting from a drive (D) range to a park (P) range, rotation of a shift lever is confined to the N range, and then, when a shift condition to the P range is satisfied, the shift lever is rotated to allow shifting to the P range, thereby preventing damage to a parking mechanism due to driver error when shifting to the P range.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 30, 2017
    Date of Patent: May 26, 2020
    Assignees: Hyundai Motor Company, Kia Motors Corporation, SL Corporation

  • Patent number: 10571014
    Abstract: An integrated apparatus for implementing shift lock and shift lock release functions of an automatic transmission vehicle includes a shift lock solenoid having a plunger capable of moving forward and backward; a shift lock release lever forcibly moving the plunger backward by coming into contact with the plunger when moving toward the shift lock solenoid; and a casing coupling the shift lock solenoid and shift lock release lever to be integrally modularized.

  • Patent number: 9752674
    Abstract: An automotive transmission includes a shift lever configured to move in one direction to select a shift stage. a housing formed to enclose one side of the shift lever; and a transmission sensing module positioned inside the housing to sense at least one of the transmission modes or the shift stages which are selected by the shift lever, wherein the transmission sensing module includes, a printed circuit board, at least one component configured to include a connection terminal electrically connected to the printed circuit board and to be operated depending on the selected transmission mode or shift stage, at least one component operated depending on at least one of the selected transmission modes or the shift stages and a cover part configured to be coupled with one surface of the printed circuit board and apply a pressure to the connection terminal to adhere to the printed circuit board.

  • Patent number: 9115801
    Abstract: A stable operation performance of a shift operation apparatus is ensured by allowing the shift lever to be stably recognized using a specific shift stage even in the case where the shift lever has stopped ambiguously between the two neighboring shift stages, and to exactly recognize by judging more exactly which one of the other shift stages, such as + stage and N stage, has been selected even in the case where sensor errors of a sensor for sensing whether the M stage or a manual mode has been selected occur.
