Benefits of technology

"The present invention is a seat-driving device for a simulation system that can increase the movement of the seat based on the user's manipulation. It is suitable for simulating various types of vehicles. The device includes a spherical surface, a moving second member, two rolling wheels, and two driving motors. The seat is installed on one of the first or second members. The technical effect of this invention is to provide a more realistic simulation experience for the user."

Problems solved by technology

However, this flight simulation system does not provide a realistic simulation because there are no physical motions of the simulation user.
However, the conventional system has difficulty providing a realistic simulation because a moving or rotating range of the seat is significantly restricted.

Embodiment Construction

[0014] Referring to FIG. 1, a seat-driving device of a simulation system 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a first member 10 and a second member 20.

[0015] The first member 10 has a global shape. In this embodiment, the first member 10 has a perfect global shape. The first member 10 may be manufactured of metal. The first member 10 is preferably formed of engineering plastic or other lightweight materials to reduce the weight of the first member 10 and the rotational inertia.

[0016] A seat 40, on which a user of the simulation system 1 can sit, is installed within the first member 10.

[0017] The first member 10 includes a manipulator 14, a display 11, and a gyro sensor 12.

[0018] As shown in FIG. 1, the manipulator 14 has a control lever shape and is combined with the seat 40 so that the user of the simulation system 1 can manipulate the simulation system 1 on the seat 40 using the manipulator 14. The manipulator 14 may be a manipulatable remote controll...

Abstract

A seat driving device of a simulation system for driving a seat on which a user of the simulation system sits is provided. The seat driving device includes a first member having a spherical surface, a second member making a relative motion with respect to the first member, two wheels rotatably coupled to the second member and rolling on and contacting the spherical surface of the first member, and two driving motors installed on the second member and connected to the wheels to rotate the wheels. The seat is installed on one of the first and second members.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0002] The present invention relates to a seat-driving device of a simulation system, and more particularly, to a seat-driving device of a simulation system which has an improved structure in which a moving or rotation range of a seat depending on a manipulation of a user greatly increases. [0003] 2. Description of the Related Art [0004] Simulation systems provide an indirect experience to a user by artificially creating circumstances that can actually occur using computers. Examples of the simulation systems include flight simulation systems, driving simulation systems, etc. It is important for a simulation system to precisely reproduce various circumstances so that a user can feel the sense of the reality and the feeling of movement as much closely to an actual circumstance as possible. To accomplish reproduction of circumstances close to actual circumstances by simulation systems, it is very important to develop softwar...
