Abstract
A haptic solenoid comprises a base member, a fixed pole which is fixed in place on the base member and which has a coil. A mobile pole is arranged facing the fixed pole with a gap therebetween and which moves by way of being attracted to the fixed pole when power is supplied to the coil. Elastic members which are made from a metallic material and which bias the mobile pole in a direction that distances the mobile pole from the fixed pole when power is not supplied to the coil and guide mechanisms, which guide the movement of the mobile pole. The guide mechanisms are configured so as to guide the movement of the mobile pole so that the mobile pole can only move in a direction facing the fixed pole.
