Description

This invention relates to a shift device that detects the shift position of the shift element. In the automotive transmission described in Patent Document 1 below, a lever and a magnetic gear are connected, and the magnetic gear rotates when the lever is rotated. Furthermore, a detection sensor detects the rotational position of the magnetic gear (the direction of the magnetic field generated by the magnet), and the shift position of the lever is detected. In this automotive transmission, after the lever and magnetic gear are connected, a calibration process is required to correlate the rotational position of the magnetic gear detected by the detection sensor with the shift position of the lever. U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2019/0195339 This is a perspective view from the right rear showing a shift device according to an embodiment of the present invention.(A) and (B) are perspective views taken from the right rear to show the inside of a shift device according to an embodiment of the present invention, where (A) shows the circuit board and the like of the shift device, and (B) shows the rotating body and the like of the shift device.(A) is a perspective view from the right showing the rotating body and other components of a shift device according to an embodiment of the present invention, and (B) is a perspective view from the right showing the first gear and other components of the shift device.(A) is a perspective view from the front right showing the rotating body of a shift device according to an embodiment of the present invention, and (B) is a perspective view from the front right showing the rotating body in the process of being assembled.(A) and (B) are perspective views showing the rotating body of a shift device according to an embodiment of the present invention, where (A) is a view from the right side and (B) is a view from the front right at an angle.(A) and (B) are perspective views showing the rotating body of a shift device according to an embodiment of the present invention, where (A) is a view from the front left and (B) is a view from the lower left. Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the shift device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention, viewed from the right rear. Figure 2(B) shows a perspective view of the inside of the shift device 10, also viewed from the right rear. In the drawings, the front of the shift device 10 is indicated by the arrow FR, the left side by the arrow LH, and the top of the shift device 10 by the arrow UP. The shift device 10 according to this embodiment is installed on the vehicle's (automobile) console (not shown), and the front, left, and top of the shift device 10 are directed towards the front, left, and top of the vehicle, respectively. As shown in Figures 1 and 2(B), the shift device 10 is provided with a roughly rectangular box-shaped plate 12 as a support, and the plate 12 is fixed inside the console. A left plate 12A is provided on the left side of the plate 12, and a right plate 12B is provided on the right side of the plate 12. The left plate 12A and the right plate 12B are assembled in the left-right direction to form the plate 12. At the rear end of the plate 12, a biasing surface 16 (nodal surface) is installed as the biased part constituting the biasing mechanism 14 (nodal mechanism). The biasing surface 16 is concave on the rear side. The vertical center of the biasing surface 16 is a holding surface 16A, and the biasing surface 16 is inclined forward as it extends outward from the holding surface 16A in both the vertical and horizontal directions. On the left wall of plate 12 (the left wall of left plate 12A), a substantially cylindrical support shaft 18 (see Figure 3(B)) is integrally provided as a support part in the middle section in the front-rear direction, and the support shaft 18 extends to the right. On the left wall of plate 12, approximately elongated rectangular plate-shaped mounting claws 20 are integrally provided above and below the support shaft 18, and the mounting claws 20 extend to the right. The upper and lower mounting claws 20 are arranged point-symmetrically with respect to the support shaft 18, and the mounting claws 20 are positioned vertically in the vertical direction. A trapezoidal columnar mounting projection 20A is integrally provided at the tip (right end) of the mounting claw 20, and the mounting projection 20A protrudes toward the support shaft 18.
