Abstract
A meshing engagement device includes a movable member; a first engaging element; a spring member; first engaging teeth formed on the first engaging element; and a second engaging element having second engaging teeth which engage with the first engaging teeth. Further, the meshing engagement device switches between an engagement state and a disengagement state, and the engagement state includes: a first engagement state where the spring member is brought into a state where the spring member is contracted in the axial direction; and a second engagement state where the spring member is brought into a state where the spring member is further contracted in the axial direction compared to the spring member in the first engagement state.
