SHIFT LEVER-VIBRATION-REDUCING DEVICE FOR MANUAL TRANSMISSION

摘要

PURPOSE: A device for reducing the vibration of a shift lever is provided to improve the shifting quality by controlling the rpm of a motor for rotating an eccentric mass body depending on the vibration of a shift lever. CONSTITUTION: An inertia body(17) is fixed on the lower end of a knob(13) of a shift lever(1) via a bracket(15). Front and rear acceleration sensors(20') are mounted on the front and rear ends of the inertia body. The acceleration sensors are electrically connected to a motor control unit. A rotating motor(40) is fixed in the shift lever. An eccentric mass body(43) is mounted on a rotating shaft(41) of the rotating motor. The rotating motor is electrically connected to the motor control unit. The acceleration sensors output control signals. The rpm of the rotating motor is decided depending on the control signal outputted from the motor control unit. The rotating motor centrifugally vibrates by the control signal. According to the centrifugal rotation of the eccentric mass body, the vibration of the shift lever is damped.
