Abstract
The invention relates a haptic feedback touch-sensitive interface module (1) including a touch-sensitive surface (3), capable of detecting bearing by a user, and at least one actuator that is connected to the touch-sensitive surface (3), wherein said module is capable of generating haptic feedback on the basis of the bearing detected, and includes: a frame (11); a movable core (13) that engages with the frame (11) and is intended to be moved between extremal positions so as to generate the haptic feedback; and an electromagnetic actuation means (15, 17) for moving the movable core (13); wherein the actuator of said haptic feedback touch-sensitive interface module also comprises a first and second prestressed resilient means (19A and 19B), respectively arranged on either side of the movable core (13).
