Abstract
A reaction force output device includes: a motor that is a drive source that creates a reaction force; a reaction force output shaft that interlocks with an output shaft of the motor to rotate; and an interlocking arm that transmits output torque of the motor which is input to the reaction force output shaft to an operation pedal. A torque limiting mechanism, which limits the transmission of torque that is equal to or greater than a specified value between the reaction force output shaft and the interlocking arm, is interposed between the reaction force output shaft and the interlocking arm.
