A shifter assembly (20) having a base (22) and a transmission control member (30). A shift lever (36) is pivotally connected to the base (22) for movement within a first path (38) and a second path (40). The shift lever (36) is coupled to the control member (30) when the shift lever (36) moves within the first path (38) and is uncoupled from the control member (30) when the shift lever (36) moves within the second path (40). The shifter assembly (20) is characterized by a locking device (80) mounted to the base (22) for selectively engaging the control member (30). The locking device 80 remains stationary during the concurrent movement of the control member (30) and the shift lever (36) and moves into engagement with the control member (30) to couple the control member (30) to the base (22) when the shift lever (36) is in the second path (40). The locking device (80) prevents relative movement of the control member (30) and inadvertent shifting of a vehicle transmission as the shift lever (36) moves within the second path (40). <IMAGE> |
