Patent number: 9212738Abstract: A structure prevents a gear shift lever from moving during a rear-end collision, and may include: a case mounted on the gear shift lever having a sliding groove; a lever having one end coupled to the case rotatable below the groove; a ball seated on the lever; a spring coupled to the lever so that elastic force is applied to raise the lever; a protruding portion mounted separate from the gear shift lever and positioned below another end of the lever, in which when the lever is rotated downward, an end of the lever is locked by the protruding portion blocking movement of the gear shift lever. When a rear-end collision occurs, the ball slides due to inertia rotating the lever downward to physically block the lever, thereby preventing a secondary accident by preventing the gear shift lever placed at an R-stage from unintentionally moving.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2013Date of Patent: December 15, 2015Assignee: Hyundai Motor CompanyInventors: Young-Je Park, Chang-Hyun Lee, Yang-Rae Cho

Publication number: 20140216196Abstract: A non-contact shift lock apparatus that includes a coil and a plunger in a housing. More specifically, the plunger moves downward in the housing when power is supplied to the coil. A shift lever locks when the plunger moves downward and unlocks when the plunger moves upward. Further, when power is supplied to the coil, the plunger is magnetized by a magnetic field and a magnetic force focus is formed at the plunger where a magnetic force is concentrated. The plunger is moved downward by magnetic force balance between a center of the magnetic field generated by the coil and the magnetic force focus, so that the position where the plunger moves downward to is determined by the position where the magnetic force focus is formed.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 19, 2013Publication date: August 7, 2014Inventors: Jee-Hyuck Choi, Yang-Rae Cho, Dong-Sik Jeong
