Abstract
An operation device includes: a magnet; a coil; an operation unit; a holding body; a mobile body; and a coil-side yoke. The holding body holds the coil. The mobile body holds the magnet so as to provide a predetermined clearance between the coil and the magnet. The mobile body is in contact with the holding body and movable relatively with respect to the holding body due to the operation force input into the operation unit. The coil-side yoke is disposed on the coil opposite to the magnet so as to lead the magnetic line generated by the magnet to the coil. The coil-side yoke is held by the mobile body so as to be movable with the magnet.
Claims4
An operation device comprising:
- a magnet;
- a coil disposed at a position, through which a magnetic line generated from the magnet passes;
- an operation unit, on which an electromagnetic force functions as a reaction force, the electromagnetic force being generated when an operation force is input and the coil is energized;
- a holding body holding the coil;
- a mobile body in contact with the holding body and movable relatively with respect to the holding body due to the operation force input into the operation unit while holding the magnet so as to provide a predetermined clearance between the coil and the magnet;
- and
- a coil-side yoke disposed on the coil opposite to the magnet so as to lead the magnetic line generated by the magnet to the coil,
- wherein the coil-side yoke is held by the mobile body so as to be movable with the magnet.
