A motor control device controls a drive of a motor having a coil, and includes a drive circuit and a control unit. The drive circuit has a plurality of switching elements, and switches the energization of the coil. The control unit includes an energization control part and a current limit part. The energization control part accelerates and then decelerates the motor, and controls energization of the coil so that a rotation position of the motor stops at a target rotation position. The current limit part limits the current during a deceleration control.

A control circuit controls driving of a motor to switch over a shift range. A target rotation speed setting part sets a target rotation speed of the motor. A rotation speed detection part detects a present rotation speed, which is an actual rotation speed, of the motor. A rotation speed error calculation part calculates a rotation speed error, which is an error between the target rotation speed and the present rotation speed. A request torque calculation part calculates a request torque for the motor based on the rotation speed error. A phase lead correction value calculation part calculates a phase lead correction value of a current supply phase relative to a rotation phase of a rotor of the motor based on the request torque.

A transfer case having a shift mechanism. The shift mechanism may include a shift rail, a range shift assembly, a mode shift assembly, and a sector cam. The sector cam may control movement of the range shift assembly and the mode shift assembly when the sector cam is rotated.

A gear shifting device, by which an axial shift movement of a shift element into a shift position is triggered through interaction of a shift pin with an associated groove-like shift gate that changes in an axial direction. The shift element features the associated shift gate, while the respective shift pin is arranged in a radially displaceable manner on a transmission component adjacent to the shift element.

A detent device for a transmission, having a shifting element, first and second end-position retaining configurations arranged at first and second positions, respectively on the shifting element, the second position is different from the first, and a neutral retaining configuration arranged on the shifting element at a third position different from the first and second positions. A latching first detent element which, depending on the position of the shifting element, latches either at the first or second end positions in the first or second end-position retaining configurations, respectively, and another latching detent element, which latches in the neutral retaining configuration when the shifting element is in its neutral position. The neutral retaining configuration has a retaining contour which is designed and/or orientated differently on the shifting element from the first end-position retaining configuration and from the second end-position retaining configuration. A transmission with a detent device.

A cam guiding device includes a cam guide having a cylindrical portion, a partially cylindrical portion extending from a leading end portion of the cylindrical portion, a partially tapered portion extending from the leading end portion of the cylindrical portion, and a rotation stopper portion provided on the partially cylindrical portion, and a sleeve for accommodating the cam guide. The sleeve includes an arc portion that overlaps the partially cylindrical portion from an outside. A radius of the partially tapered portion increases as the partially tapered portion extends away from the cylindrical portion. The rotation stopper portion is a component that protrudes radially outward from an outer circumferential surface of the partially cylindrical portion. When the rotation stopper portion abuts the sleeve and an inner circumferential surface of the cam guide abuts the parking cam, rotation of the cam guide with respect to the sleeve is restricted.

A shift device includes: a shift switching member including a plurality of valley portions corresponding to shift positions; a motor that includes a rotor and a stator and that is configured to drive the shift switching member; and a positioning member configured to establish the shift positions in a state in which the positioning member is fitted into any one of the plurality of valley portions of the shift switching member. The shift device is configured to learn the shift positions based on a change amount of a load torque applied to the motor while the positioning member is moved to continuously pass through the plurality of valley portions.

A motor control device includes an energization control unit and an excessive return determination unit. The energization control unit controls energization to a motor. The excessive return determination unit determines whether or not there is a possibility of an excessive return exceeding an allowable return position, when a non-energization return control is performed to return a motor in a direction away from a movable limit position by an external force generated in the rotation transmission system by turning off the energization to the motor after driving the motor to the movable limit position where the drive is restricted by the drive limiting portion. When it is determined that there is no possibility of the excessive return, the energization is continuously turned off, and when it is determined that there is a possibility of the excessive return, a stop control configured to stop the motor by energizing is performed.
