A shift device for a vehicle includes: a shift body that is moved in a predetermined range in a first direction and in a second direction that is a direction opposite from the first direction, and whose shift position is changed; and a moving mechanism that has a moving member at which a first moving portion and a second moving portion are provided, the first moving portion moving the shift body in the first direction, and the second moving portion moving the shift body in the second direction, due to movement of the moving member.

A shift gate assembly that can include a shift plate, a gate seal and a shift lever. The shift plate can include a lever opening having an opening centerline. The gate seal can be made of an elastic material and connected to the shift plate and extend along the lever opening. The gate seal can include a slit extending along the lever opening and offset with respect to the opening centerline. The shift lever can extend through the lever opening and the slit, be selectively movable along the lever opening and the slit, and elastically deform the gate seal as the shift lever moves along the slit.

A rotary-type automotive transmission is provided. The rotary-type automotive transmission includes a housing; a shaft coupled to the housing in an axial direction; a bullet part provided on a surface of the shaft to be elastically projected in a first direction, which is perpendicular to the axial direction, and/or in a second direction, which is opposite to the first direction; and a groove part mounted in a receiving groove that is formed on a surface of the housing, to face the bullet part. The groove part slidably moves in the first direction and/or in the second direction to be received in the housing.

A shifter assembly selects a first mode and a second mode of a transmission for a vehicle. The shifter assembly includes a housing and a shift lever movably coupled to the housing and pivotable relative to the housing. The shift lever includes a body and a cap defining an aperture and being coupled to the body. The cap is rotatable relative to the body between a first and a second orientations. The shift lever further includes a toggle device partially received by the cap in the aperture with at least a portion of the toggle device being moveably coupled to the body between a rest and a depressed positions. The shift lever further includes an element mounted to the toggle device and rotatable with the cap between the first and the second orientations. The shift lever further includes a sensor system configured to interact with the element to detect rotation of the cap between the first and the second orientations.

A shift device in which a press-fit column of a control lever is press-fitted into and passed through a press-fit hole in a boot such that the boot forms a seal between the upper side and the lower side of the press-fit hole. A press-fit interference amount between the press-fit column and the press-fit hole is larger at a length direction intermediate side of the press-fit hole than at a length direction end portion side of the press-fit hole. This enables a reduction in the contact force between the press-fit column and a peripheral face of the press-fit hole at the length direction intermediate side of the press-fit hole to be suppressed, enabling the sealing performance of the press-fit hole in the boot to be improved.

A unified electronic shift lever may include a first selection unit installed on a dashboard of a vehicle, and on which various selectable options including a gear shift option of the vehicle are indicated, a second selection unit installed on an upper portion of the first selection unit, and on which sub-options of the various selectable options selected at the first selection unit are indicated, a display unit disposed on an upper portion of the second selection unit and displaying options selected at the first selection unit and the second selection unit, and a control unit disposed below the dashboard, identifying operations of the first selection unit and the second selection unit to control various types of options of the vehicle, and changing indication on the second selection unit and the display unit.

A pushbutton shifter interface is provided on a vehicle and includes a plurality of pushbutton keys arranged horizontally on a dashboard. The pushbutton shifter interface may be fixedly coupled with the dashboard generally forward of a driver seat. The pushbutton shifter interface is accessible by a driver to select a vehicle operating mode.
