The invention relates to a gearbox system for a vehicle having: an automated manual gearbox; a gearbox control device designed to control the automated manual gearbox; a monostable toggle switch which can be operated by a user, in particular a driver, and is movable in at least, in particular exactly, two deflection directions and by means of which a plurality of driving ranges of the gearbox control device can be selected by the user; and a visual device which displays or can display graphically a gearshift diagram with driving ranges selectable by the toggle switch. The gearbox control device has a further driving range which cannot be selected by means of the toggle switch but can be exited by moving the toggle switch in at least one of the two deflection directions. The visual device has at least one display designed to display a symbol which indicates the at least one deflection direction of the toggle switch by means of which the further driving range can be exited. The gearbox control device is also designed to control the at least one display such that the symbol is only displayed when the further driving range is selected.

ELECTRONIC SHIFT RANGE SWITCHING DEVICE

The present invention provides an electronic shift range switching device (10) which is configured to control a shift range of a vehicle, the device comprising: a housing unit (100); a shifting knob unit (200) exposed at one end thereof to the outside of the housing unit (100) and disposed at the other end thereof within the hosing unit (100) in such a manner as to be rotatable with respect to the housing unit (100); and a locking correction integrated unit (300) configured to control whether or not to interrupt the rotation of the shifting knob unit (200) and to return a position of the shifting knob unit (200) to a P shift range in a self-correction manner under a predetermined condition.

Gear shift operation device for vehicle

A gear shift operation device for a vehicle to which a multiple-stage automatic transmission is mounted, is provided. By a control lever being manually operated in a range switchable mode, a range position is switched at least between a D-range where automatic transmission is performed and an R-range, and by the control lever being manually operated in a manual transmission mode, a gear change is performed. An operation reaction force when the control lever is manually operated is set larger when the gear change is performed in the manual transmission mode than when the range position is switched in the range switchable mode.

Lever shifter with auto return to park and lock function

A vehicle transmission shifter assembly including a housing pivotally supporting a shifter lever between Park, Reverse, Neutral, Drive and Manual shifter positions. A plurality of gate locations configured upon an underside of the housing and corresponding to each of Park, Reverse, Neutral and Drive gear positions. A gate lock incorporated into the lever and biased against a selected one of the gate locations. A PCB board with processor and sensor integrated into the housing communicating with a motor connected to the shifter lever. Upon the processor determining existence of a return to park condition, a return to park mechanism actuates the motor for returning the shifter lever to the Park position.

A range switching device includes a momentary selector lever movable on a shift gate, a position detector, a moving speed acquisition unit, a passage time acquisition unit, a determination time setting unit, a timing unit, and a determination unit. A neutral position determination region is disposed on a movement path between a home position determination region, a forward travel position determination region, and a reverse travel position determination region. When the selector lever moves from the forward travel position determination region toward the neutral position determination region, the passage time acquisition unit obtains an expected passage time based on a moving speed of the selector lever. The determination time setting unit sets a neutral determination time in accordance with the expected passage time. When the time measured by the timing unit reaches the neutral determination time or longer, the determination unit determines that the neutral position is selected.

Operation lever

An operation lever includes: a pair of rods disposed at point-symmetrical positions with respect to an operation axis; magnets disposed on the respective rods; and a pair of magnetic sensors disposed at line-symmetrical positions with respect to a second straight line perpendicular to a first straight line connecting centers of one of the rods and the other rod, on a plane perpendicular to the operation axis.

Manual release for medical device drive system

A medical device drive system can include a rotational input, a coupling member engaged with the rotational input, a first gear having an engagement feature sized and shaped to engage with the coupling member, and a second gear coupled with the first gear, the second gear coupled to a movable element. The system can have a first system state and a second system state. In the first system state the coupling member is not engaged with the engagement feature and the first gear rotates without moving the coupling member. In the second system state the coupling member is engaged with the engagement feature of the first gear and rotation of the rotational input turns the coupling member, the first gear, and the second gear to move the movable element.

VEHICLE SHIFTER WITH SCROLL COMPONENT

A scrolling shifter assembly having a housing rotatably supporting a scrolling wheel having a knurled exterior edge accessible to a vehicle operator, the scrolling wheel also including an annular side detent profile. A magnet is positioned in proximity to a sensor mounted to a printed circuit board (PCBA) within the housing and displaces relative to the sensor in response to rotation of the scrolling wheel. A display component is mounted in proximity to the PCBA. At least one haptic biasing component including any of spring loaded pawl or wave spring is supported within the housing and biases against the detent profile such that, and upon the operator actuating the scrolling wheel, the pawl is caused to displace relative to the profile in order to incrementally rotate the wheel, the magnet rotating relative to the PCBA sensor to cause an associated processor to electronically instruct a shift change to an engine control unit.
