摘要： A ROM provided in a computer stores tables showing the relationships between the direction and amount of operation of a manual operating section, and external force to be applied from electric motors. A CPU determines the direction and amount of external force to be applied to the manual operating section based on positional information output from encoders and the tables, and drives the electric motors via a motor driver. The operator can feel the resistance produced thereby at the manual operating section. Therefore, it is possible to finely operate the manual operating section, and to thereby control the functions of car-mounted electrical devices. By applying external force to the manual operating section when the manual operating section is operated to the moving limit, the operator can sense the moving limit of the manual operating section, and can select a car-mounted electrical device.

摘要： A vehicle mounted input unit excellent in versatility and functional performance, which allows a manual operation section to be used as a mouse for a navigation system or a personal computer. The vehicle mounted input unit is composed of a body of equipment, a panel installed on an operating side of the body of equipment, an X-Y table, an engaging pin, a guide plate, a solenoid, a stick controller and a manual operation section. The guide plate is fitted to the X-Y table to be movable up and down and driven up and down through the solenoid. When the guide plate is lifted, the engaging pin and a guide groove are engaged with each other SO that the vehicle mounted input unit can be used as an operating unit for electronic equipment mounted in the motor vehicle. On the other hand, when the guide plate is lowered, the engaging pin and the guide groove are released form their engagement, at which time the manual operation section can be used as a mouse.
