Title:
WHEEL UNIT, AND OPERATION DEVICE COMPRISING SAME
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/024323
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A wheel unit (11) comprises: a wheel body part (12f); an MR fluid retaining part (11g); a coil (12d); a setting registration part (15g); and a coil control part (12c). The coil (12d) generates a magnetic field with respect to MR fluid (12e). The coil control part (12c) performs control on a current flowing to the coil (12d) so as to change rotational resistance to which the wheel body section (12f) is subjected, and this control includes energization control, in which the wheel body section (12f) is subjected to rotational resistance in accordance with a setting value if there is an operational input, and non-energization control, in which the wheel body part (12f) is not subjected to rotational resistance if there is no operational input for a prescribed length of time. If there is an operational input during the non-energization control and a transition is to be made to the energization control, the coil control part (12c) reads the most recent setting saved in the setting registration part (15g) and subjects the wheel body part (12f) to rotational resistance.
