Abstract

See full text

An operating device includes a handle, a sensor system and an actuator. The handle is configured to be: manually deflectable from an inoperative position relative to an axis, and rotatable about the axis, and/or displaceable axially with respect to the axis, and/or tiltable in relation to the axis, and/or displaceable transversely with respect to the axis. The sensor system is configured to detect the deflection of the handle and has a haptics device by which the handle can be subjected to the action of a haptically detectable effect in correspondence with the deflection of the handle. The actuator, to which the handle is fixedly connected, is configured to drive the handle such that the actuator can be moved alternately in one degree of freedom by a movement distance of <1 mm depending on the deflection of the handle.
