Publication number: 20130162419Abstract: A force feedback device is provided. Several spring-sleeved screw bolts respectively pass through the suppression holes around the top cover to fix the top cover on the base. Each spring in the ladder-shaped suppression hole is suppressed between the nut of the screw bolt and the top cover.
