Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electronic equipment technology, and in particular to a trigger button device and an electronic device. Background Technology

[0002] There are many types of electronic devices, but they are not limited to VR devices. Electronic devices allow users to experience virtual worlds. Users can control the actions of virtual characters by pressing the trigger buttons on the electronic devices. However, the force change of the trigger buttons in related technologies is relatively uniform during the pressing process, which reduces the user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The main objective of this invention is to provide a trigger button device that allows for greater variation in the force applied to the trigger button during pressing, thereby improving the user experience.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the trigger button device proposed in this invention includes:

[0005] Support components;

[0006] A trigger button includes a trigger button body rotatably disposed on the support member and a pressing structure disposed on the trigger button body. The trigger button has a pressing process in which the trigger button body sequentially passes through a first position, a second position, and a third position.

[0007] A first elastic element connects the support member and the trigger button, so that the trigger button body tends to remain in the first position;

[0008] A force-changing mechanism is provided on the support member. The force-changing mechanism includes a blocking member. During the process of the trigger button body rotating from the first position to the second position, the pressing structure gradually approaches the blocking member. During the process of the trigger button body rotating from the second position to the third position, the pressing structure presses against the blocking member.

[0009] Optionally, the blocking member is rotatably disposed on the support member, and the force-changing mechanism further includes a second elastic member that is pulsatorically connected to the blocking member. During the process of the trigger key body rotating from the second position to the third position, the pressing structure drives the blocking member to rotate so that the second elastic member has elastic potential energy. During the process of the trigger key body rotating from the third position to the fourth position, the second elastic member releases elastic potential energy to drive the blocking member to reset.

[0010] Optionally, the force-changing mechanism further includes a transmission member that is drivenly connected to the blocking member. In the length direction of the second elastic member, the two ends of the second elastic member are respectively drivenly connected to the transmission member and the support member. The transmission member is slidably disposed on the support member along the length direction of the second elastic member.

[0011] Optionally, the blocking member is provided with a driving helical surface, the driving helical surface being arranged around the rotation axis of the blocking member, and the transmission member is provided with a driven helical surface that is in transmission cooperation with the driving helical surface.

[0012] Optionally, the support member is provided with a first bushing, the first bushing including a bushing body with a bushing hole and a first limiting part provided in the bushing body, the transmission member including a shaft part provided in the bushing hole and a second limiting part provided in the shaft part, the bushing hole having a limiting wall surface opposite to the shaft part in the axial direction of the bushing hole, the two ends of the second elastic member respectively abutting the limiting wall surface and the shaft part, the second limiting part abutting against the first limiting part in the circumferential direction of the second elastic member, and sliding along the length direction of the second elastic member on the first limiting part.

[0013] Optionally, during the pressing process, after the trigger button body passes through the third position, it also passes through the fourth position. During the process of the trigger button body rotating from the third position to the fourth position, the pressing structure separates from the blocking member.

[0014] Optionally, the trigger button further includes a third elastic element connecting the trigger button body and the pressing structure. The pressing structure is rotatably disposed on the trigger button body. During the process of the trigger button body rotating from the third position to the second position, the pressing structure presses against the blocking member to give the third elastic element elastic potential energy. During the process of the trigger button body moving from the second position to the first position, the third elastic element releases elastic potential energy to drive the pressing structure to reset.

[0015] Optionally, the trigger button body is provided with a limiting surface. During the process of the trigger button body rotating from the third position to the fourth position, the direction of rotation of the pressing structure relative to the trigger button body is a first direction, and the pressing structure has a second direction opposite to the first direction. During the process of the trigger button body rotating from the second position to the fourth position, the pressing structure presses against the blocking member in the first direction and against the limiting surface in the second direction.

[0016] Optionally, the trigger key body has a weight reduction cavity on the side near the force-changing mechanism, the trigger key body has a connecting arm at the bottom of the weight reduction cavity, the connecting arm has the limiting surface, the pressing structure is rotatably disposed on the connecting arm, and the third elastic member connects the connecting arm and the pressing structure.

[0017] Optionally, the connecting arm is provided with a first rotating shaft, and the pressing structure is rotatably connected to the connecting arm through the first rotating shaft. The third elastic element includes a first spring body sleeved on the first rotating shaft and two first torsion arms provided at both ends of the first spring body. The two first torsion arms are respectively connected to the connecting arm and the pressing structure.

[0018] Optionally, the support member is provided with a second rotating shaft, and the trigger key body is rotatably connected to the support member through the second rotating shaft. The first elastic member includes two second spring bodies sleeved on the second rotating shaft, a second torsion arm connecting the two second spring bodies at their close ends, and two third torsion arms respectively located at the two second spring bodies at their far ends. The support member is provided with a limiting block, the second torsion arms are located on the limiting block, and the two third torsion arms are located on the trigger key body.

[0019] The present invention also proposes an electronic device, comprising:

[0020] Host;

[0021] A display device, communicatively connected to the host computer; and

[0022] The aforementioned trigger button device is communicatively connected to the host computer.

[0023] In the technical solution of this invention, the user can press the trigger button, causing the trigger button body to sequentially pass through a first position, a second position, and a third position. During the rotation of the trigger button body from the first position to the second position, the pressing structure of the trigger button gradually approaches the blocking member of the force-changing mechanism. At this time, the first elastic element connecting the support member and the trigger button possesses elastic potential energy. The user needs to overcome the force exerted by the first elastic element when pressing the trigger button. The force change trend of the trigger button during this process is defined as K1. During the rotation of the trigger button body from the second position to the third position, the pressing structure presses against the blocking member. Thus, the user also needs to overcome the forces exerted by the first elastic element and the blocking member when pressing the trigger button. The force change trend of the trigger button during this process is defined as K2. Thus, after completing one pressing process, the user can feel the force change trend sequentially from K1 to K2. The multiple force change trends of the trigger button improve the user experience and enhance the fun of the trigger button device. When the user releases the trigger, the first elastic element releases its elastic potential energy to drive the trigger button body back to the first position, ready for the user's next press.

[0042] Electronic devices come in many forms, but are not limited to VR devices. They allow users to experience virtual worlds, controlling the actions of virtual characters by pressing trigger buttons. However, in related technologies, the force applied to the trigger buttons varies somewhat uniformly during pressing, reducing the user experience. Therefore, this invention proposes a trigger button device designed to provide a more varied force application during pressing, thereby improving the user experience.

[0043] Reference Figures 1 to 5 In one embodiment of the present invention, the trigger button device 100 includes:

[0044] Support components;

[0045] The trigger button 300 includes a trigger button body 310 rotatably disposed on the support member and a pressing structure 320 disposed on the trigger button body 310. The trigger button 300 has a pressing process, during which the trigger button body 310 sequentially passes through a first position, a second position and a third position.

[0046] A first elastic element 400 connects the support member and the trigger button 300, so that the trigger button body 310 tends to remain in the first position;

[0047] A force-changing mechanism is provided on the support member. The force-changing mechanism includes a blocking member 510. During the process of the trigger button body 310 rotating from the first position to the second position, the pressing structure 320 gradually approaches the blocking member 510. During the process of the trigger button body 310 rotating from the second position to the third position, the pressing structure 320 presses against the blocking member 510.

[0048] In the technical solution of this invention, the user can press the trigger button 300, causing the trigger button body 310 to sequentially pass through a first position, a second position, and a third position. During the rotation of the trigger button body 310 from the first position to the second position, the pressing structure 320 of the trigger button 300 gradually approaches the blocking member 510 of the force-changing mechanism. At this time, the first elastic member 400 connecting the support member and the trigger button 300 possesses elastic potential energy. The user pressing the trigger button 300 needs to overcome the force exerted by the first elastic member 400. The change in force of the trigger button 300 during this process is defined as... As the trigger button body 310 rotates from the second position to the third position, the pressing structure 320 presses against the blocking member 510. Thus, when the user presses the trigger button 300, they also need to overcome the force exerted by the first elastic member 400 and the blocking member 510. The trend of force change of the trigger button 300 during this process is defined as K2. After completing one press, the user can feel the force changing sequentially from K1 to K2. The numerous force changes of the trigger button 300 enhance the user experience and the fun of the trigger button device 100. When the user releases the trigger, the first elastic member 400 releases its elastic potential energy to drive the trigger button body 310 back to the first position, ready for the next press.

[0049] It is worth mentioning that, in one embodiment, the trigger button device 100 can be configured as a handle, and the support member can be configured as a handle housing for easy gripping by the user. Of course, in other embodiments, the trigger button device 100 can also be part of the handle, and the support member is used to be fitted onto the handle housing.

[0050] Refer to together Figure 6 During the rotation of the trigger button 300 from the second position to the third position, the blocking member 510 provides resistance to the pressing structure 320 in many ways. In one embodiment, the blocking member 510 is rotatably disposed on the support member. The force-changing mechanism further includes a second elastic member 520 that is pultrusively connected to the blocking member 510. During the rotation of the trigger button body 310 from the second position to the third position, the pressing structure 320 drives the blocking member 510 to rotate, so that the second elastic member 520 has elastic potential energy, such as... Therefore, the blocking member 510 provides resistance to the pressing structure 320 through the second elastic member 520. Specifically, the pressing structure 320 pressing against the blocking member 510 will provide a force to drive the blocking member 510 to rotate. During the rotation of the blocking member 510 driven by the pressing structure 320, the elastic potential energy of the second elastic member 520 gradually increases. The blocking member 510 provides resistance to the pressing structure 320 through the second elastic member 520 until the pressing structure 320 separates from the blocking member 510. At this time, the second elastic member 520 releases its elastic potential energy to drive the blocking member 510 to reset. However, this design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the blocking member 510 is elastic. For example, the blocking member 510 may be configured as, but is not limited to, an elastic arm or an elastic plate. During the rotation of the trigger button 300 from the second position to the third position, the pressing structure 320 presses against the blocking member 510 to cause the blocking member 510 to undergo elastic deformation. The user needs to overcome the resistance provided by the blocking member 510 when pressing the trigger button 300. In another embodiment, the pressing structure 320 is elastic. In yet another embodiment, both the pressing structure 320 and the blocking member 510 are elastic. The form of the pressing structure 320 and the blocking member 510 is not limited here.

[0051] Optionally, in one embodiment, the force-changing mechanism further includes a transmission member 530 that is tractively connected to the blocking member 510. Along the length of the second elastic member 520, the two ends of the second elastic member 520 are respectively tractively connected to the transmission member 530 and the support member. The blocking member 510 can drive the transmission member 530 to move along the length of the second elastic member 520. It can be understood that the transmission member 530 plays a role in motion conversion. The rotating blocking member 510 drives the second elastic member 520 to deform along its length through the transmission member 530, for example, driving the second elastic member 520 to compress or stretch. Thus, the force change of the second elastic member 520 is relatively linear, facilitating the design of K2. Of course, in other embodiments, one end of the second elastic member 520 is connected to the support member, and the other end is connected to the blocking member 510. The rotation axis of the blocking member 510 is perpendicular to the second elastic member 520.

[0052] Refer to together Figure 8 and Figure 9 Optionally, in one embodiment, the blocking member 510 is provided with a driving helical surface 511, which is arranged around the rotation axis of the blocking member 510. The transmission member 530 is provided with a driven helical surface 533 that drives and cooperates with the driving helical surface 511. It can be understood that the extension direction of the rotation axis of the blocking member 510 is parallel to the extension direction of the second elastic member 520. When the blocking member 510 rotates, it drives the driven helical surface 533 through the driving helical surface 511. The driven helical surface 533 slides around the rotation axis of the blocking member 510 on the driving helical surface 511, so that the transmission member 530 slides along the length direction of the second elastic member 520 on the support member, thereby compressing or stretching the second elastic member 520. Of course, in other embodiments, the blocking member 510 is provided with teeth arranged around the rotation axis of the blocking member 510, the transmission member 530 has a rack portion that cooperates with the teeth, and the support member is provided with a first guide groove for the rack portion to slide.

[0053] Refer to together Figure 7It is understandable that when the driving helical surface 511 drives the driven helical surface 533, if the rotation of the transmission member 530 is not restricted, the driven helical surface 533 may continuously rotate with the driving helical surface 511 without sliding relative to the driving helical surface 511 in the direction of rotation around the axis of rotation of the blocking member 510. This would make it difficult for the second elastic member 520 to obtain elastic potential energy. Therefore, various methods are provided to restrict the continuous rotation of the transmission member 530 around the first axis. Specifically, in one embodiment, the support member is provided with a first bushing 210. The first bushing 210 includes a bushing body 211 with a bushing hole 212 and a first limiting part 217 provided in the bushing body 211. The transmission member 530 includes a shaft part 531 provided in the bushing hole 212 and a second limiting part 535 provided in the shaft part 531. In the axial direction of the bushing hole 212, the bushing hole 212 has a connection with the shaft. The limiting wall 214 opposite to the part 531, the two ends of the second elastic member 520 respectively abut against the limiting wall 214 and the shaft part 531, the second limiting part 535 can abut against the first limiting part 217 in the circumferential direction of the second elastic member 520, and can slide along the length direction of the second elastic member 520 on the first limiting part 217. In this way, when the driving spiral surface 511 drives the driven spiral surface 533, since the first limiting surface 314 and the second limiting surface 314 of the transmission member 530 abut against the second elastic member 520 in the circumferential direction, the rotation of the transmission member 530 is restricted, that is, the rotation of the driven spiral surface 533 is restricted. In this way, the driven spiral surface 533 can slide relative to the blocking member 510 in the direction of rotation axis, so that the shaft part 531 of the transmission member 530 can approach the limiting wall 214 to compress the second elastic member 520, so that the second elastic member 520 has elastic potential energy. It is worth mentioning that at least part of the shaft portion 531 is located inside the shaft hole 212. The second limiting portion 535 can be located inside or outside the shaft hole 212, without any limitation. Furthermore, the transmission member 530 is allowed to rotate during the process of the driving helical surface 511 driving the driven helical surface 533, as long as the transmission member 530 does not rotate continuously. For example, the second limiting portion 535 can abut against the first limiting portion 217 during rotation. After the two abut against each other, the second limiting portion 535 can slide on the first limiting portion 217. Alternatively, the second limiting portion 535 can directly abut against the first limiting portion 217. In this way, under the drive of the driving helical surface 511, the second limiting portion 535 can not rotate, but directly slide on the first limiting portion 217.

[0054] However, this design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the support member may be provided with a second guide groove extending along the length direction of the second elastic member 520, and the shaft portion 531 of the transmission member 530 is in the shape of a cuboid and is mounted in the second guide groove.

[0055] Specifically, in one embodiment, the shaft hole 212 includes a first hole segment 213 and a second hole segment 216 that are connected, wherein the radius of the first hole segment 213 is larger than the radius of the second hole segment 216, the limiting wall surface 214 is the bottom wall of the first hole segment 213, and the limiting wall surface 214 is circumferentially disposed in the second hole segment 216, the shaft portion 531 includes a first shaft segment 532 installed in the first hole segment 213 and a second shaft segment 534 passing through the first hole segment 213 and the second hole segment 216, the driven helical surface 533 is disposed at the first end of the first shaft segment 532 near the blocking member 510, and the second elastic member 520 is disposed in... The first hole segment 213 is sleeved on the second shaft segment 534. One end of the second elastic member 520 abuts against the limiting wall surface 214, and the other end abuts against the first shaft segment 532. The second shaft segment 534 extends out of the second hole segment 216. The part of the second shaft segment 534 extending out of the second hole segment 216 is connected to the second limiting part 535. Correspondingly, the first limiting part 217 partially surrounds the axis of the shaft hole 212 so that the first limiting part 217 has two opposing surfaces in the circumferential direction of the shaft hole 212. The second limiting part 535 is disposed between the two surfaces. The second limiting part 535 can abut against one of the surfaces and slide on that surface.

[0056] Alternatively, in one embodiment, the second elastic element 520 may be configured as a tension spring or a compression spring.

[0057] Optionally, in one embodiment, the support member is further provided with a second bushing 220 for the blocking member 510 to pass through.

[0058] Users can control the actions of virtual characters by pressing the trigger button 300 of the trigger button device 100 of the electronic device, such as controlling the character to pull the trigger to complete a shot. However, the force change trend of the trigger button 300 in the related technology is relatively simple, making it difficult to simulate the feel of some actions, such as the action of pulling the trigger during shooting, resulting in a poor user experience. Therefore, in one embodiment, during the pressing process, the trigger button body 310 passes through the third position and then the fourth position. During the rotation of the trigger button body 310 from the third position to the fourth position, the pressing structure 320 separates from the blocking member 510. Thus, during this rotation, the pressing structure 320 is not subjected to force from the blocking member 510. The user needs to overcome the force given by the first elastic member 400 when pressing the trigger button 300. At this time, the force change trend of the trigger button 300 returns to K1, so that the user can feel the force change trend changing sequentially from K1 to K2 and then back to K1 after completing one pressing process. It should be noted that during shooting, the force change trend of the trigger during the pulling of the trigger is also from K1 to K2 and then back to K1. In this way, during the user pressing the trigger button 300 of the trigger button device 100, the force change trend of the trigger button 300 is more frequent, making the feel of performing some actions in the virtual world closer to reality, such as the action of pulling the trigger during shooting, thus improving the user experience.

[0059] Alternatively, in one embodiment, during the rotation of the trigger button body 310 from the third position to the fourth position, the second elastic member 520 releases its elastic potential to drive the blocking member 510 to reset.

[0060] Optionally, in one embodiment, the trigger button 300 further includes a third elastic member 330 connecting the trigger button body 310 and the pressing structure 320. The pressing structure 320 is rotatably disposed on the trigger button body 310. During the process of the trigger button body 310 rotating from the third position to the second position, the pressing structure 320 presses against the blocking member 510, so that the third elastic member 330 has elastic potential energy. During the process of the trigger button body 310 moving from the second position to the first position, the third elastic member 330 releases... The elastic potential energy is released to drive the pressing structure 320 to reset. By rotatably providing the pressing structure 320 to the trigger button body 310, during the process of the trigger button body 310 rotating from the third position to the second position, when the pressing structure 320 is pressing against the blocking member 510, the pressing structure 320 can reduce the difficulty of the trigger button body 310 resetting to the first position by rotating. In addition, during the process of the trigger button body 310 rotating from the second position to the first position, the pressing structure 320 can be reset by the third elastic member 330, ready for the user to press the trigger button 300 again. However, this design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the pressing structure 320 can be integrally formed with the trigger button body 310 without the third elastic member 330, thereby saving the production cost of the trigger button device 100.

[0061] Optionally, in one embodiment, the trigger button body 310 is provided with a limiting surface 314. During the process of the trigger button body 310 rotating from the third position to the fourth position, the direction of rotation of the pressing structure 320 relative to the trigger button body 310 is a first direction, and the pressing structure 320 has a second direction opposite to the first direction. During the process of the trigger button body 310 rotating from the second position to the fourth position, the pressing structure 320 presses against the blocking member 510 in the first direction and against the limiting surface 314 in the second direction. The limiting surface 314 can ensure that the pressing structure 320 can provide pressure to the blocking member 510 during this process, avoiding the weakening of the elasticity of the first elastic member 400 after long-term use of the trigger button device 100, thereby avoiding the weakening of the force that the user needs to overcome due to the rotation of the pressing structure 320 in the second direction during this process, and thus avoiding the fact that K2 and K1 are not much different.

[0062] Optionally, in one embodiment, the trigger button body 310 is provided with a weight-reducing cavity 311 on the side near the force-changing mechanism. The trigger button body 310 is provided with a connecting arm 312 at the bottom of the weight-reducing cavity 311. The connecting arm 312 is provided with the limiting surface 314. The pressing structure 320 is rotatably disposed on the connecting arm 312. The third elastic member 330 connects the connecting arm 312 and the pressing structure 320. This helps to make the trigger button device 100 lighter, and also reduces the burden on the first elastic member 400 when resetting the button body, thus extending the service life of the first elastic member 400.

[0063] Optionally, in one embodiment, the pressing structure 320 is rotatably connected to the connecting arm 312 via a first rotating shaft 313. The third elastic element 330 includes a first spring body 331 sleeved on the first rotating shaft 313 and two first torsion arms 332 disposed at both ends of the first spring body 331. The two first torsion arms 332 are respectively connected to the connecting arm 312 and the pressing structure 320, so that the pressing structure 320 can be reset by the torque of the third elastic element 330. However, this design is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the third elastic element 330 may be configured as a tension spring or a compression spring, with one end of the third elastic element 330 connected to the connecting arm 312 and the other end connected to the pressing structure 320.

[0064] Optionally, in one embodiment, the trigger button body 310 is rotatably connected to the support member via a second rotating shaft 230. The first elastic member 400 includes two second spring bodies 410 sleeved on the second rotating shaft 230, a second torsion arm 420 connecting the two adjacent ends of the two second spring bodies 410, and two third torsion arms 430 respectively disposed at the opposite ends of the two second spring bodies 410. The support member is provided with a limiting block 240, the second torsion arm 420 is disposed on the limiting block 240, and the two third torsion arms 430 are disposed on the trigger button body 310.
