Abstract

An operating device includes a push operation mechanism to be push-operated by an operator, and a drive transmission mechanism to transmit a drive force for presenting the operator with a tactile stimuli-operational feeling via the push operation mechanism. The push operation mechanism is configured to be engageable with the drive transmission mechanism. The drive transmission mechanism is configured to switch between a non-engagement position to allow the push operation of the user without being engaged with the push operation mechanism and an engagement position to allow the transmission of the drive force by being engaged with the push operation mechanism.
