The invention relates to a device for detecting the position of a gearshift lever for selecting a gear/driving stage or a gear setting of a motor vehicle. The device has a signal transmitter installed on the gearshift lever and a signal receiver installed at a distance from the signal transmitter, wherein it is possible to detect the different positions of the signal transmitter relative to the signal receiver in different gears or gear settings. The invention further relates to a motor vehicle having such a device.

Device for detecting the position of a gear step selector lever

The invention relates to a gearshifting device (), which is intended for a transmission and comprises a selector lever () that can be moved in such a manner that different shift positions (P, R, N, D, S, M+, M&#x2212;) can be selected in at least two gearshift gates () and that it is possible to shift between one of the gearshift gates () and the at least one other gearshift gate (), and comprises at least one lock (), which is used to block the traversing path of the selector lever () with respect to one of the gearshift gates (), in order to shift from one of the shift positions (P, R, N, D, S) into another of the shift positions (P, R, N, D, S). According to the invention, at least one locking element () is provided, which is mechanically coupled to the selector lever () and by means of which the shift lock () can be activated and/or deactivated in that with respect to the gearshift gate () that is to be blocked, the locking element () can be moved into and out of the traversing path of the selector lever ().
