Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of grip technology, and in particular to a grip adapted for playing games with a Switch 2 controller. Background Technology

[0002] To enable multiple game modes, facilitate repair and replacement, meet personalized needs, increase accessory expandability, improve portability, and optimize ergonomic design, the controllers of the existing Switch 2 game console (a home video game console launched by Nintendo in 2017) have been changed from a non-detachable structure to a detachable structure. The controllers also have built-in batteries and can be used independently after being removed.

[0003] However, while the detachable controllers can be adapted to various game modes, many game modes require both controllers to be in a relatively fixed state. To meet this requirement, existing technologies have developed some controller grip structures for the Switch 2 game controller, such as the grip shown in the appearance patent with publication number CN306274174S. This grip is a dedicated charging grip for the Switch 2 controller, which can simultaneously fix two Switch 2 controllers together and charge both controllers. However, the inventors found that most of these existing Switch 2 controller grips are magnetically fixed, which is easy to disassemble but prone to falling off during use. If a more stable structure is used to reinforce the connection, the disassembly and assembly of the controllers becomes more cumbersome. The lack of a structural design that facilitates quick disassembly and assembly of the controllers makes it difficult to meet the user's need for convenient use, which to some extent affects the user's gaming experience and efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to propose an improved technical solution to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings mentioned above, this utility model aims to provide a technical solution that can solve the above problems.

[0005] A grip adapted for playing games with Switch 2 controllers, used to fix two controllers together, includes a main body and grip parts disposed on both sides of the main body, the grip parts being used to press the controllers against the sides of the main body.

[0006] Slots for engaging the gripping parts are provided on both sides of the main body. The gripping parts are formed with insert plates that slide in the slots. A slot is formed on the insert plate. Inside the main body, a torsion spring that elastically abuts against the insert plate and an elastic latch for locking the slot are also provided. The torsion spring and the elastic latch are configured with the following mating structure:

[0007] Firstly, the insert plate is inserted into the slot by overcoming the elastic force of the torsion spring. After the insert plate is inserted, the elastic latch is engaged with the slot to fix it, so that the gripping part drives the handle to press against the side of the main body.

[0008] Secondly, by pressing the elastic lock to disengage it from the slot, the insert plate is released from the restriction of the elastic lock and is driven by the torsion spring, causing the grip to spring open from both sides of the main body to release the constraint on the handle.

[0009] Preferably, a connection port for electrically connecting the handle is provided on both sides of the main body, and a power supply unit is provided inside the main body, which charges the handle through the connection port.

[0011] Preferably, a limiting post is provided inside the main body, and a flat elongated hole is provided on the insert plate to engage with the limiting post. The insert plate is slidably connected to the main body through the sliding engagement of the flat elongated hole and the limiting post.

[0012] Preferably, the torsion spring is fixed inside the main body, and at least two torsion springs are provided, with each torsion spring having its two ends abutting against two insert plates respectively.

[0013] Preferably, the elastic latch includes a pressing part protruding from the surface of the main body and a snap-fit ​​part formed on both sides of the pressing part. A guide part for assembling the elastic latch is provided inside the main body. A spring is provided between the elastic latch and the guide part. The snap-fit ​​part is locked in the slot by the force of the spring.

[0014] Preferably, both sides of the main body are provided with positioning grooves that match the handle, and the connection port is located in the positioning groove.

[0015] Preferably, the slots on both sides of the main body are through structures, and at least one set of stabilizing structures is provided on the opposite surfaces of the two insert plates. The stabilizing structures include insert strips and sockets that guide and cooperate with each other, and the two insert plates are mutually constrained by the guiding cooperation of the insert strips and sockets.

[0016] Preferably, the grip is configured to allow the handle to enter from the front or above, and the grip has an arc-shaped bend structure to abut against the edge of the upper surface of the handle.

[0017] Preferably, a palm fitter is installed on the outer side of the grip portion.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] Through the ingenious combination of torsion springs and elastic latches, the grip and main body can be fixedly engaged and flexibly moved together. Users can easily position the handle on the grip and then further secure it by retracting the two grips inward, greatly simplifying the installation and removal process. Furthermore, the mechanism that requires pressing the elastic latch to unlock prevents accidental loosening of the grip during use, ensuring that the two handles are always firmly fixed to both sides of the main body, providing players with a stable and reliable gaming grip experience. In addition, the structure is simple; the core structure of the grip consists of a slot, insert plate, torsion spring, and elastic latch, with a clean and straightforward overall design, and each component is easy to manufacture.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0032] Please see Figure 1-7 In this embodiment of the invention, a grip adapted for playing games with a Switch 2 controller is provided for fixing two controllers together. It includes a main body 10 and grip portions 20 disposed on both sides of the main body 10. The grip portions 20 are used to press the controllers against the sides of the main body 10.

[0033] Both sides of the main body 10 are provided with slots 11 for engaging with the gripping part 20. The gripping part 20 is formed with an insert plate 21 that is slidably connected to the slot 11. A slot 22 is provided on the insert plate 21. Inside the main body 10, a torsion spring 30 that elastically abuts against the insert plate 21 and an elastic latch 40 that locks the slot 22 are also provided. The torsion spring 30 and the elastic latch 40 are configured with the following mating structure:

[0034] Firstly, the insert plate 21 is inserted into the slot 11 by overcoming the elastic force of the torsion spring 30. After insertion, the insert plate 21 drives the elastic latch 40 to cooperate with the slot 22 for fixation, so that the grip 20 drives the handle to press against the side of the main body 10. When it is necessary to fix the two handles to the handle, first place the two handles on both sides of the main body 10, then hold the grip 20 and slide the insert plate 21 of the grip 20 into the slot 11. At this time, the insert plate 21 will overcome the elastic force of the torsion spring 30. The spring force of the torsion spring 30 moves into the slot 11. As the insert plate 21 goes deeper, the slot 22 on the insert plate 21 will gradually approach the elastic buckle 40. When the insert plate 21 is fully inserted into the slot 11, the elastic buckle 40 will be engaged in the slot 22 under its own elastic force, thus fixing the insert plate 21 to the main body 10. At the same time, the grip 20 will drive the handle to press against the side of the main body 10, so that the two handles are firmly fixed on the grip, and the player can hold the grip to play the game.

[0035] Secondly, by pressing the elastic latch 40 to disengage it from the slot 22, the insert plate 21, after being released from the restriction of the elastic latch 40, is driven by the torsion spring 30, causing the grip part 20 to spring open from both sides of the main body 10 to release the constraint on the handle. When it is necessary to remove the two handles from the grip, simply press the elastic latch 40 with your finger to make it overcome its own elasticity and disengage from the slot 22. After losing the restriction of the elastic latch 40, the insert plate 21 will pop out from the slot 11 under the elastic force of the torsion spring 30, causing the grip part 20 to spring open from both sides of the main body 10, thereby quickly releasing the constraint on the two handles and making it convenient for the player to remove the handles from the grip.

[0036] Therefore, in the above technical solution, the ingenious cooperation between the torsion spring 30 and the elastic lock 40 achieves both a fixed and flexible fit between the grip 20 and the main body 10. Users can easily position the handle on the grip 20 and further secure it by retracting the two grips 20 towards the center, greatly simplifying the installation and removal of the handle. Furthermore, the structure that requires pressing the elastic lock 40 to unlock prevents the grip 20 from accidentally loosening during use, ensuring that the two handles are always firmly fixed to both sides of the main body 10, providing players with a stable and reliable gaming grip experience. In addition, this structure is simple; the core structure of the grip consists of the slot 11, the insert plate 21, the torsion spring 30, and the elastic lock 40. The overall design is concise and clear, and the structure of each component is easy to manufacture.

[0037] Please see Figure 1-5 Based on the above technical solution, in order to enable the grip to charge the gamepad, it is further proposed that connection ports 12 for electrically connecting the gamepad are provided on both sides of the main body 10. The main body 10 also contains a power supply unit 13, which charges the gamepad through the connection ports 12. Players do not need to worry about insufficient gamepad power during the game, avoiding interruption of the game experience due to sudden power failure. Moreover, the centralized charging method reduces the cumbersome process of charging multiple devices individually and improves charging efficiency. The surface of the main body 10 is also provided with a charging port 14 for charging the power supply unit 13 and a charging indicator light 15 for indicating the power level. The charging indicator light 15 allows players to keep track of the power level at any time and make reasonable arrangements for game time and charging plans, thus upgrading the grip from a simple fixing device to a comprehensive gaming accessory with charging function.

[0038] Please see Figure 6-7Based on the above technical solution, a limiting post 16 is further proposed to be set inside the main body 10, and a flat elongated hole 23 is opened on the insertion plate 21 to engage with the limiting post 16. The insertion plate 21 is slidably connected to the main body 10 through the sliding engagement of the flat elongated hole 23 and the limiting post 16. With this setting, the grip 20 can be restricted to both sides of the main body 10, and this structure effectively restricts the sliding trajectory of the insertion plate 21, preventing it from shifting or shaking during insertion or ejection. This makes the grip 20 more stable and precise when it drives the handle to press against the side of the main body 10, further improving the stability of the handle fixation and ensuring that the handle will not loosen or become misaligned during intense game operation. In addition, the tight engagement of the flat elongated hole 23 and the limiting post 16 reduces the wear of the insertion plate 21 during sliding, extends the overall service life of the grip, and reduces the frequency of maintenance or replacement due to component wear.

[0039] Please see Figure 6 Based on the above technical solution, it is further proposed that torsion springs 30 be fixed inside the main body 10. At least two torsion springs 30 are provided, and the two ends of each torsion spring 30 abut against two insert plates 21 respectively. As shown in the figure, two torsion springs 30 are provided. When the elastic lock 40 is pressed to release the lock, the two torsion springs 30 release the elastic force simultaneously, which can make the insert plate 21 pop out quickly, realizing the quick disassembly of the handle. The symmetrical arrangement of the two torsion springs 30 can also make the insert plate 21 more evenly stressed during the sliding process, effectively avoiding the jamming or displacement problem caused by uneven force on one side, and ensuring that the grip part 20 can smoothly and steadily connect and separate from the main body 10.

[0040] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7Based on the above technical solution, the elastic latch 40 is further proposed to include a pressing part 41 protruding from the surface of the main body 10 and a latching part 42 formed on both sides of the pressing part 41. A guide part 17 for assembling the elastic latch 40 is provided inside the main body 10. A spring 43 is provided between the elastic latch 40 and the guide part 17. The latching part 42 is locked in the slot 22 by the force of the spring 43. The latching part 42 has an inclined surface. When the insert plate 21 is inserted, the elastic latch 40 is lifted upward by resisting the inclined surface of the latching part 42, thus overcoming the elastic force of the spring 43. When the insert plate 21 is fully inserted, the latching part 42 will... Moved to slot 22, it will spring back and engage with slot 22, thus securing the insert plate 21. In this structure, guide part 17 ensures linear movement of elastic latch 40, preventing latch part 42 from shifting and causing locking failure. Combined with the stable elastic force provided by spring 43, latch part 42 and slot 22 are tightly engaged, effectively resisting vibration and external impact during gameplay and ensuring the stability of the controller. This press-type design is ergonomic, allowing users to quickly complete the unlocking operation with one hand. Combined with the elastic assistance of multi-torsion spring 30, it enables convenient disassembly and assembly of the controller.

[0041] Please see Figure 1-4 and Figure 6-7Based on the above technical solution, it is further proposed that both sides of the main body 10 are provided with positioning grooves 18 that match the handle, and the connection port 12 is set in the positioning groove 18. The positioning groove 18 is used to frame one side of the handle. The user can use this structure to initially connect the handle to the connection port 12, and then use the grip part 20 to press the handle against both sides of the main body 10, so that the handle can be more firmly and reliably fixed on the grip. The slots 11 on both sides of the main body 10 are through structures. At least one set of stabilizing structures is provided on the opposite surfaces of the two insert plates 21. The stabilizing structures include insert strips 24 and sockets 25 that guide and cooperate with each other. The two insert plates 21 are mutually constrained by the guiding cooperation of the insert strips 24 and sockets 25. Each insert plate 21 has two insert strips 24 and two sockets 25. The insert strips 24 and sockets 25 of the two insert plates 21 are distributed at the front and rear positions of the opposite surfaces of the two insert plates 21. The two insert strips 24 of one insert plate 21 and the two insert strips 24 of the other insert plate 21 are distributed in a front-to-back constraining manner, which can improve the overall stability. The grip 20 is designed to allow the handle to enter from the front or top, and the grip 20 has an arc-shaped bend 27 that abuts against the edge of the upper surface of the handle, which can further improve the stability of the handle after it is fixed. In addition, a palm fitter 26 is installed on the outside of the grip 20 to fit the palm. The palm fitter 26 optimizes the grip feel according to ergonomic principles, distributes hand pressure, and reduces fatigue during long-term gaming. The palm fitter 26 is a structure installed on the grip 20, which can be customized according to the user's needs, thereby improving grip comfort and meeting individual needs.

[0042] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
