Shift lock mechanism for shift lever device

摘要

A shift lever device for an automatic transmission comprises a lock plate (3) rotatably supported by a pair of supports (20) and formed with a step which cooperates with a detent recess (2) of a position plate to prevent vertical and longitudinal movements of a position pin (17) at least in the N range. The lock plate (3) is rotated to engage with the detent recess when the position pin is moved to the N range.
