Abstract
A shift lock structure of a shift lever, includes: an engaging lever provided at a lower end portion of the shift lever and rotated when the shift lever is rotated; a solenoid valve having a plunger extending in a direction intersecting a direction in which the engaging lever is rotated and configured to allow the plunger to be retracted or extracted depending on a shift stage; and a lock lever located in a rotation direction in which the engaging lever is rotated from a P-stage to another stage, and coupled with the plunger such that, when the shift stage is the P-stage, when the plunger is extracted and moved in an axial direction thereof, the lock lever blocks rotation of the engaging lever, implementing the shift lock.
