Rotational load device

Abstract

To provide a rotational load device capable of generating a rotational reaction force solely through mechanical components.SOLUTION: This rotational load device comprises a slide tube 16 which is fitted around the outer perimeter of a rotary shaft 15 so as to be slidable in the axial direction, and an elastic member 17 which biases the slide tube 16 in the axial direction. A cam groove 30, the axial position of which changes along the circumferential direction, is formed in the slide tube 16. A cam pin 31, which slides inside the cam groove 30 when the rotary shaft 15 rotates, is provided on the outer periphery of the rotary shaft 15. The rotational load device generates rotational reaction force utilizing the elastic force transmitted from the elastic member 17 to the rotary shaft 15 via the slide tube 16 and the cam pin 31.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
