Patent ID: 8919218

Claim:
A transmission system for shift-by-wire, comprising: a shift lever for changing stages of a transmission by a user; a shift-lock device for fixing or releasing the shift lever; and a control unit including: a shift control logic changing the stages of the transmission in accordance with a stage signal changed by the shift lever; and a shift-lock control logic controlling the shift-lock device in accordance with the stages for an initial time from when the stages are changed such that the shift lever is fixed and which is time for an initial operation for shift-lock of the shift lever and a maintenance time which is time for a maintenance operation for the shift-lock after the initial time, in order to shift-lock the shifted shift lever when the stages are changed by the shift control logic, wherein the shift-lock device includes: a fixing cam fixing or releasing the shift lever; and an actuator pivotally coupled to the fixing cam and actuating the fixing cam wherein the shift-lock control logic drives the actuator such that the fixing cam fixes the shift lever, by applying a PWM current signal with a predetermined duty rate for the maintenance time to maintain the position of the actuator after applying a DC current signal for the initial time, wherein the DC current signal is a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) current signal with a duty rate of approximately 90% to approximately 100% and the predetermined duty rate is approximately 40% to approximately 60%.
