Abstract

A parking lock mechanism for a vehicle having an infinitely variable transmission provided with a synchronizer for engaging a forward gear train and a reverse gear train with a main shaft of the transmission. A parking lock position in a shift pattern of a selector lever is located adjacent a reverse position so that the selector lever can be shifted to the parking lock position passing through the reverse position. This means that the selector lever can not be shifted during forward driving of the vehicle.
