- a vertical on the plane spanned by the coil unit (essentially) is aligned transversely and in particular perpendicular to a winding plane spanned by the coil windings is.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un dispositif de freinage (1) et un contrôleur de jeu (100) doté d'un dispositif de freinage (1), en particulier destiné à freiner le déplacement d'éléments de commande (101), tels que par exemple des touches de commande, des leviers de commande, des boutons-poussoirs. Le dispositif de freinage (1) comprend un premier composant de freinage (8) s'étendant le long d'une direction longitudinale axiale (19) et un second composant de freinage (3) consistant en un matériau magnétiquement conducteur et un dispositif générateur de champ magnétique (24), lequel comprend un ensemble bobine (24a) électrique et un noyau (26) magnétiquement conducteur. Le premier composant de freinage (8) est logé sur le second composant de freinage (3), de manière à se déplacer dans la direction axiale (19). L'ensemble bobine (24) électrique est enroulé dans la direction longitudinale (19) autour du premier composant de freinage (8), de telle sorte qu'une perpendiculaire (24c) sur le plan défini par l'ensemble bobine (24a) est orientée transversalement à un plan d'enroulement (25) défini par les enroulements de bobine. Un entrefer (5), rempli d'un milieu magnétorhéologique (13) et rendu étanche aux extrémités axiales, dans chaque cas par un dispositif d'étanchéité (12), est réalisé entre le premier composant de freinage (8) et le second composant de freinage (3)
