Abstract
In association with a solenoidal coilbeing energized to unlock a shift leverC, a first movable coreand a second movable coremagnetically stick together so as to rotationally move in unison from an original position in which the first movable coreengages with the second movable core. Because the first movable coreand the second movable corestick together before unlocking the shift leverC, it is possible to avoid the first movable corefrom hitting the second movable coreso as to eliminate an operational noise. A lock plateand a link plateare rotatably provided around a rotational centerin relative to the solenoidal coal. This prevents the lock plateand the link platefrom moving rotationally in unison with the solenoidal coilso as to insure a smooth and quick rotational movement.
