Vehicular automatic transmission shift device

摘要

A shift device comprises a shift lever 1 having an operating knob 11 provided on the top thereof, a gate plate 2 that defines shift patterns for the automatic shift mode and the manual shift mode, and a first rotational center shaft X and a second rotational center shaft Y for allowing the shift lever 1 to be rotated in a front-to-rear direction and rotated in a right-to-left direction, respectively, in accordance with the shift pattern of the gate plate. The gate plate 2 is disposed apart from the knob 11 of the shift lever 1, with the rotational center shafts X, Y passing between the gate plate 2 and the knob 11. The length of the shift lever can be reduced so as to achieve a short stroke and a large shift lever pivot angle.
