ABSTRACT:
A shift mechanism in a power transfer device includes first and second shift rods axially slidably mounted in parallel to each other within a housing of the transfer device, an interlock mechanism arranged to selectively retain the shift rods in their shifted positions, an operation rod extending through the wall of the housing and rotatably supported therethrough, the operation rod having an outer end operatively connected to a manually operated transfer lever and an inner end located in the interior of the housing, and a swing lever pivoted to the inner end of the operation rod at a position displaced in a predetermined distance from the axis of the operation rod, the swing lever having one end portion engaged with the first shift rod and the other end portion engaged with the second shift rod. In the shift mechanism, the axial movement amount of the first shift rod is determined to be substantially the same as that of the second shift rod, and the distance between the pivot axis of the swing lever and the other end portion of the same in engagement with the second shift rod is determined to be smaller than the distance between the pivot axis of the swing lever and the one end portion of the same in engagement with the first shift rod.
