Abstract
A shift-locking device for a vehicle transmission includes a manual shaft mechanically connected with a shift lever for rotating to a first position, a second position and a third position through operation of the shift lever, and mechanically connected to a parking control mechanism disposed in the transmission case. A first shift-locking shaft is connected to a brake pedal for rotating from a first position to a second position, and a locked member is provided on the manual shaft. A first lock member provided on the first shift-locking shaft is adapted to engage the locked member when the first shift-locking shaft is in the first position. A spring urges the first shift-locking shaft to the second position to release engagement between the locked member and the first lock member.
