Abstract:
1. A support structure for a shift lever comprising; a rotation shaft coupled to the shift lever and including first and second end portions; a base plate including a support that pivotally supports the first and second end portions of the rotation shaft to tiltably support the shift lever; a restriction member coupled to the base plate in contact with the rotation shaft; and a fixing portion that fixes the restriction member to the base plate, wherein the base plate includes a guide that guides the coupling of the restriction member to the base plate, the rotation shaft includes a main protrusion, which protrudes in an axial direction of the rotation shaft from an end surface at one of the first and second end portions of the rotation shaft, and an auxiliary protrusion, which protrudes in the axial direction of the rotation shaft from the end surface by a smaller protrusion amount than the main protrusion, and the restriction member is fixed in contact with the main protrusion of the rotation shaft so that the restriction member cooperates with the support to restrict movement of the rotation shaft in the axial direction.
