A control element for a vehicle is designed to change between a parking state and a driving state. In the parked state, the control element is designed to enable a driver to switch the vehicle from a parked state to a travel state. The control element also enables the vehicle driver to freely select a gear of the vehicle by changing from a parking state into a drive state.

In a shift device, contact projections of a rotation cylinder make contact with side faces of recesses of an detent plate due to an urging force so as to urge a lever toward a shift position side. The contact projections make line contact with the side faces of the recesses. This enables the contact amount between the contact projections and the side faces of the recesses to be increased, enabling the contact pressure between the contact projections and the side faces of the recesses to be lowered.

A drive device for vehicles includes a transmission device including a transmission mechanism that changes a speed of inputted rotation of a drive source of a vehicle and outputs the rotation and that is provided on an axis of rotation orthogonal to a front-rear direction of the vehicle; and a casing that holds the transmission mechanism; and a control device that performs electronic control of the transmission device, at least a part of the control device being installed on an outside of the casing, and the control device is installed at either one of a front side portion and a rear side portion of the casing in the front-rear direction of the vehicle.

A shifting device for a hybrid drive system of a motor vehicle, with a centrally arranged shaft, a first gear wheel rotatably mounted relative to the shaft and a second gear wheel rotatably mounted relative to the shaft and offset along the shaft relative to the first gear wheel, a sliding sleeve slidably received directly in the first gear wheel and non-rotatably connected thereto, which sliding sleeve is configured such that, in a first displacement position, it connects the shaft in a rotationally fixed manner to the first gear wheel, while the second gear wheel is rotationally decoupled from the shaft, and in a second displacement position, it rotationally connects the shaft to both the first and second gear wheels, and in a third displacement position, it rotationally connects the two gear wheels to each other while the shaft is rotationally decoupled from the two gear wheels.

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.
