VERRIEGELUNGSVORRICHTUNG FUER EINEN SCHALTHEBEL MIT AUTOMATISCHEM GETRIEBE.

摘要

A locking apparatus for a shift lever in an automatic transmission of a vehicle to shift the shift lever from a vehicle non-driving position to a vehicle driving position by means of an electrically operated member such as a solenoid (14) in a particular case of applying a brake pedal. When the shift lever is located in the non-driving position, a detent pin for inhibiting the shift lever from shifting is engaged with a lock recess (13) formed in a lock (11) member and the lock member is held in a lock position by means for the electrically operated member. Even though the electrically operated member fails to function due to a trouble or the like, an occupant can manually shift the shift lever from the non-driving position to the driving position to move the vehicle by traction.
