Abstract:
An actuator and a tactile device are provided. In the actuator, a gel member is disposed in a portion where a support body and a movable body face each other. The gel member is attached to the movable body and the support body by a first adhesive layer and a second adhesive layer. The gel member includes a first portion and a second portion having a higher hardness than an intermediate portion on a first adhesive layer side and a second adhesive layer side from the intermediate portion. If the thicknesses of the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer are changed, a spring constant of the gel member is changed. The first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer are made to appropriate thicknesses. The gel member, the first adhesive layer and the second adhesive layer are addition reaction types, and the base polymers thereof are the same.
