TACTILE-FORCE GENERATING APPARATUS

摘要

In order to reduce the number of parts and to provide sufficient direct tactile sensation transmitted to the finger tip, there is provided a tactile - force generating apparatus (50) for generating in an input section which can be displaced from a determined position of an input unit for inputting information to a game machine main unit, a tactile force for returning the input unit to the predetermined position, the tactile-force generating apparatus (50) comprising a coil spring (60) for generating a tactile force independently from game information in a control pad (48), a permanent magne t (63) and an electromagnet (64) for generating a tactile force corresponding to the game information in the control pad (48).
