Abstract

The invention relates to a haptic feedback system. The haptic feedback system includes a mounting frame configured to interface with an assembly chassis, and a mounting plate configured to support a user input device that provides a haptic feedback to a user. The mounting plate is slidably mounted on the mounting frame. The haptic feedback system further includes a guide disposed on the mounting plate, two opposing lever arms that are pivotably mounted on the mounting frame, and an actuator configured to pivot the two opposing lever arms in opposing directions. The two opposing lever arms are pivoted to cause movement of the mounting plate via the guide.
