Abstract
In a shift lever device, when the shift lever is operated from a position C to a position N, a pusher slides along a select sliding region of an indexing section due to biasing force. In the indexing section, an anchor is formed at positions over the entire range of the select sliding region by a secondary resin penetrating completely into a through hole in a primary resin. Therefore, lifting of the secondary resin relative to the primary resin can be suppressed during molding of the secondary resin.
Claims9
A shift lever device comprising:
- a shift lever operable in mutually intersecting select and shift directions, the shift lever moving from a reference position to a shift region when operated in a select direction, and the shift lever changing shift positions in the shift region when operated in the shift direction;
- a biasing member provided to one of the shift lever or a vehicle side;
- a contact member provided to the other of the shift lever or the vehicle side, and formed by molding an external peripheral material onto the external periphery of an internal material, biasing force being imparted to the shift lever by the biasing member contacting the contact member;
- and
- a pierced through section formed by the external peripheral material penetrating through a through hole piercing through the internal material, the pierced through section disposed over the entire range in which the contact member contacts the biasing member when the shift lever is operated in the select direction from the reference position to the shift region.
