Shift device
A shift device includes a shift switching member including a plurality of valley portions corresponding to shift positions, a motor including a rotor and a stator and configured to drive the shift switching member, a first drive system including a first inverter configured to output a voltage for driving the motor, a second drive system provided separately from the first drive system and including a second inverter configured to output a voltage for driving the motor; and a positioning member configured to be fitted into any one of the plurality of valley portions of the shift switching member to establish the corresponding shift position. When driving the motor, the shift position is switched by the voltages output from the first drive system and the second drive system.

Shift-by-wire system
A shift-by-wire system physically prevents shifting to the R/N/D gear position and shifting to the P gear position from being simultaneously performed. The shift-by-wire system includes a body configured to have a Hall sensor provided therein, a knob installed so as to be rotatable around an axis of the body, a button assembly moving in an axial direction of the body and having a magnet provided to sense rotated and moved states thereof using the Hall sensor and rotate together with the knob, and a concurrent operation limiting unit to mechanically limit movement of the button assembly in a state in which the knob is manipulated so as to be rotated, and to mechanically limit rotation of the knob in a state in which the button assembly is manipulated so as to be moved.

Electronic shift control apparatus
An electronic shift control apparatus includes a shift dial that is operated by a driver to select an R-range, an N-range, and a D-range, a P-range motor that is operated to select a P-range, and a haptic motor that generates a haptic signal. When a driver shifts into a specific shift range of a vehicle by operating the shift dial or the P-range button, the haptic signal is configured to be transmitted to the driver.

Electronic shift control apparatus
An electronic shift control apparatus may include a shift dial that a user operates to select an R-range, an N-range (Nd-range and Nr-range), and a D-range, a P-range button which is operated to select a P-range, and a haptic motor that generates a haptic signal. When a driver shifts into a specific shifting range (R-range) of a vehicle by operating the shift dial, a haptic signal may be transmitted to the driver.

Haptic function of electric vehicle powertrain
A system generates haptic feedback in an electric vehicle. The system comprises a frame, an energy storage device, and a wheel rotatably coupled to the frame. A motor receives power from the energy storage device and provides torque to the wheel. A controller determines a first operational state of the electric vehicle and transmits a first torque signal to the motor to control the motor to transmit first torque levels to the wheel to propel the electric vehicle. The controller determines a second operational state of the electric vehicle and transmits a second torque signal to the motor assembly. The motor assembly transmits second torque levels to the wheel to generate haptic feedback. The second torque signal is based on the second operational state of the electric vehicle and a torque profile stored in the memory, where the torque profile defines an irregular-shaped periodic waveform (e.g., a heartbeat rhythm).
Transmission lever device for automobile
A transmission lever device for an automobile includes: a base; a lever rotatably mounted on the base, wherein the lever is configured to select one of sequentially disposed gear positions including park (P), reverse (R), neutral (N), drive (D), and low (L) by a linear movement and to be movable from P to L and from L to P; and a blocker mounted on the base and configured to restrict and wide movement of the lever from P to L.
