Input device

An input device which is capable of imparting a magnetic operational reaction force, comprising:

• a stationary member;
• a magnetic member fixed to the stationary member;
• a movable member at least partially housed in the stationary member to which the magnetic member is fixed;
• and
• a driving device including a magnet fixed to the movable member and coils fixed to the stationary member, configured to move the movable member in a first direction relative to the stationary member,
• wherein the magnet is magnetized along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction,
• wherein the coils have bundles of turns constituted by conductive wires, and the conductive wires in the bundles of turns extend along a third direction perpendicular to each of the first direction and the second direction, and the conducting wires are juxtaposed along the first direction, and
• wherein the magnetic member is positioned so as to generate an attraction force between the magnet and the magnetic member which acts to bring the movable member closer to a predetermined position from a position deviated from the predetermined position.
