The manipulation body is arranged to be selectively projected from the case. The first detecting member detects the connection state selected by the manipulation body.
Claims6
A shift device located on an installing portion in a passenger compartment of a vehicle, wherein the shift device selects the connection state of a gear train of a transmission of the vehicle, the shift device comprising:
- a case;
- a manipulation body, which is manipulated for selecting the connection state of the transmission, wherein the manipulation body is arranged to be selectively projected from the case;
- a first detecting member for detecting the connection state selected by the manipulation body;
- a solenoid for moving the manipulation body in direction to project from the case;
- and
- a controller, wherein the controller sends an activation signal to the solenoid when the connection state of the vehicle satisfies a predetermined condition.
A shift device located on an installing portion in a passenger compartment of vehicle, wherein the shift device selects the connection state of a gear train of a transmission of the vehicle, wherein the shift device includes a shift mechanism, which includes a manipulation body, a detecting member, and a solenoid, wherein the manipulation body is manipulated to select the connection state of the transmission of the vehicle, and the detecting member detects the connection state selected by the manipulation body, wherein the shift mechanism is arranged to be selectively projected from the installing portion, and wherein the solenoid moves the manipulation body in a direction to project from the installing portion.
