[0001] This invention relates to the field of VR device technology, and in particular to a quick-release mechanism for a controller and a VR device. Background Technology
[0002] In addition to VR glasses, VR devices typically include controllers and other control devices that work with the glasses. As virtual reality technology advances, the number of functions it can perform is increasing. Therefore, different controllers with different functionalities are needed for different functions. Developing a separate controller for each function would not only increase development costs but also increase the user's operating costs.
[0003] To save costs, the connectors on the handle can be replaced when using different functions. However, in the current technology, the connectors are usually installed inside the handle, requiring the cover of the outer shell to be removed before the internal connectors can be replaced. The disassembly and assembly process is cumbersome and affects the user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0049] This invention proposes a quick-release and detachable handle structure, which includes a base 10, a sleeve 20, an elastic snap-fit component 30, and a connector. The sleeve 20 has an inner cavity, one end of which is disposed on the base 10, and the other end is an opening 23. The side wall of the sleeve 20 has a first snap-fit hole 21 and a second snap-fit hole 22, and the opening 23, the first snap-fit hole 21, and the second snap-fit hole 22 are all in communication with the cavity. The elastic snap-fit component 30 is disposed on the sleeve 20, and has a first buckle 33 corresponding to the first snap-fit hole 21 and a second buckle 36 corresponding to the second snap-fit hole 22. The connector includes a pressure-sensitive pen 42 and a knob wrist strap 41. One of the first buckle 33 and the second buckle 36 is used to snap the pressure-sensitive pen 42, and the other is used to snap the knob wrist strap 41, so as to replace the pressure-sensitive pen 42 and the knob wrist strap 41.
[0050] Both the pressure-sensitive pen 42 and the wrist strap 41 have a slot 43. When the connector extends into the receiving cavity through the opening 23, the slot 43 engages with the first buckle 33 or the second buckle 36.
[0051] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 The connector can be a knob wrist strap 41; please refer to Figure 2 The connector can also be a pressure-sensitive pen 42, etc.
[0052] It is understandable that the positions and sizes of the slots on the pressure-sensitive pen 42 and the knob wrist strap 41 differ depending on the usage scenario. Furthermore, the buckles corresponding to the pressure-sensitive pen 42 and the knob wrist strap 41 are different.
[0053] For example, when a user is playing a motion-sensing game, they wear the knob wrist strap 41 on their wrist to prevent the controller from being thrown off. In this case, the user's hand movements are relatively large during exercise, so it is necessary to ensure the stability of the knob wrist strap 41 during connection. Therefore, for the use of the knob wrist strap 41, the second buckle 36 is used to secure the knob wrist strap 41. The second buckle 36 can be used in a way that provides more connection points and more limiting directions to prevent the controller from slipping off.
[0054] When using drawing software or tools, the user replaces the connector with the pressure-sensitive pen 42. In this case, the user's hand movement is relatively small. Therefore, for the use of the pressure-sensitive pen 42, the first buckle 33 is used to secure the pen 42. The first buckle 33 can adopt a relatively simple fixing structure and method, thereby realizing quick switching between the knob wrist strap 41 and the pressure-sensitive pen 42.
[0055] In this embodiment, the first buckle 33 and the second buckle 36 are designed to meet the connector wearing requirements of different application scenarios, enabling users to quickly replace the connector. At the same time, the connection method of the first buckle 33 and the second buckle 36 is adjusted according to the connection strength requirements of the connector in different application scenarios to ensure that different user needs are met.
[0056] During assembly, the connector is installed into the receiving cavity inside the sleeve 20 through one side of the opening 23 of the sleeve 20.
[0057] Please refer to Figure 3 The base 10 includes a base 10 body and a pressure-sensitive pad 11 disposed on the base 10 body. The pressure-sensitive pad 11 enables the detection and acquisition of pressure signals. When the user uses the pressure-sensitive pen 42 type connector, the pressure signal generated is acquired through the pressure-sensitive pad 11 and transmitted to other devices of the VR device, such as VR glasses, host, etc.
[0058] In addition, a buffer pad 12 can be provided on the pressure-sensitive sheet 11. The buffer pad 12 can be made of silicone material to buffer the pressure of the connector and prevent the pressure-sensitive sheet 11 from being damaged by sudden excessive pressure.
[0059] The sleeve 20 can be cylindrical to facilitate user gripping. The sleeve 20 can also be polygonal or other shapes.
[0060] One end of the sleeve 20 is mounted on the base 10, and the other end face has an opening 23 structure to facilitate the installation of the connector.
[0061] The first snap-fit hole 21 and the second snap-fit hole 22 are provided at different positions on the side wall of the sleeve 20. It can be understood that, in order to be compatible with more different types of connectors, third snap-fit holes, fourth snap-fit holes, etc., can also be provided at other positions on the side wall of the sleeve 20 to adapt to more different types of connectors.
[0062] Please refer to Figures 5-6 The side of the sleeve 20 facing the cavity is defined as the inner side, and the side away from the cavity is defined as the outer side.
[0063] The elastic snap-fit assembly 30 is disposed on the outside of the sleeve 20. After the elastic snap-fit assembly 30 is installed, the position of the first snap-fit 33 corresponds exactly to the position of the first snap-fit hole 21, and the first snap-fit 33 extends into the receiving cavity through the first snap-fit hole 21; the position of the second snap-fit 36 corresponds exactly to the position of the second snap-fit hole 22, and the second snap-fit 36 extends into the receiving cavity through the second snap-fit hole 22.
[0064] When the connector is a knob wrist strap 41 type connector, inserting the connector into the sleeve 20 will cause the slot 43 of the knob wrist strap 41 to mate with the second buckle 36, thereby securing the knob wrist strap 41 within the sleeve 20 via the second buckle 36; please refer to Figure 4 When the connector is a pressure-sensitive pen 42 type connector, similarly, the slot 43 of the pressure-sensitive pen 42 will be adapted to the first buckle 33, thereby clamping the pressure-sensitive pen 42 into the sleeve 20 through the first buckle 33.
[0065] When using the pressure-sensitive pen 42, in order for the pressure-sensitive pad 11 on the base 10 to successfully collect pressure signals, the pressure-sensitive pen 42 needs to be installed as close as possible to the base 10 and in contact with the base 10.
[0066] Therefore, the first snap-fit hole 21 is located on the side closer to the base 10, so that the pressure-sensitive pen 42 is closer to the base 10 after installation and abuts against the pressure-sensitive sheet 11 on the base 10. The second snap-fit hole 22 is located on the side of the sleeve 20 away from the base 10, thereby making reasonable use of the installation space of the sleeve 20, improving the space utilization rate of the overall structure, and improving the rationality of the structural design.
[0067] The present invention provides first snap-fit holes 21 and second snap-fit holes 22 at different positions on the sleeve 20, and correspondingly provides first buckles 33 and second buckles 36 on the elastic snap-fit assembly 30. Through the mutual cooperation of the first snap-fit holes 21 and the first buckles 33, and the mutual cooperation of the second snap-fit holes 22 and the second buckles 36, different types of connectors can be snapped together. The overall structure is simple and compact, greatly improving the utilization of structural space, and allowing for quick disassembly and interchange of connectors.
[0068] For details, please refer to Figure 7 The elastic snap-fit assembly 30 includes a connecting ring 31 and a snap-fit plate 32. The connecting ring 31 is disposed between the sleeve 20 and the base 10. One end of the snap-fit plate 32 is connected to the outer ring edge of the connecting ring 31. The snap-fit plate 32 is located outside the sleeve 20 and abuts against the side wall of the sleeve 20. The first buckle 33 is disposed on the other end of the snap-fit plate 32. The other end of the snap-fit plate 32 extends toward the first snap-fit hole 21 so that the first buckle 33 corresponds to the first snap-fit hole 21.
[0069] The connecting ring 31 can be installed between the base 10 and the sleeve 20.
[0070] The connecting ring 31 and the snap-fit plate 32 are integrally formed to improve the overall structural strength of the elastic snap-fit assembly 30.
[0071] When assembling the elastic snap-fit assembly 30, the snap-fit plate 32 is positioned on the outside of the sleeve 20. It should be noted that, to ensure the sleeve 20 and the base 10 are properly installed, the end of the sleeve 20 connected to the base 10 has a larger volume, thereby improving installation stability. Therefore, a through hole can be made in the sleeve 20 so that the snap-fit plate 32 can pass through the through hole, ultimately allowing the snap-fit plate 32 to adhere to the outer side wall of the sleeve 20, i.e., the outer wall of the sleeve 20.
[0072] The snap-fit plate 32 is elongated, with one end fixed to the outer ring of the connecting ring 31 and the other end being a free end that extends to the first snap-fit hole 21.
[0073] The first buckle 33 can be formed by bending the snap plate 32. For example, the free end of the first buckle 33 can be bent once towards the sleeve 20 and then bent once in the opposite direction to form a protruding first buckle 33.
[0074] By adjusting the bending position, the first buckle 33 is aligned with the first snap-fit hole 21, and the first buckle 33 extends into the receiving cavity through the first snap-fit hole 21. When the connector is installed in the receiving cavity, the first buckle 33 engages with the slot 43 on the connector.
[0075] In this embodiment, the number of the snap-fit plates 32 can be set to two. The two snap-fit plates 32 are arranged opposite to each other on both sides of the connecting ring 31. Correspondingly, each side of the connector is provided with a slot 43. The two first buckles 33 simultaneously snap the two sides of the connector, thereby improving the stability of the connector snap-fit.
[0076] Furthermore, the elastic snap-fit assembly 30 also includes two limiting plates 34, which are disposed on opposite sides of the inner ring of the connecting ring 31 and located inside the sleeve 20; wherein, there is a gap between the two limiting plates 34, and the width of the gap is adapted to the width of the connector to limit the connector.
[0077] The limiting plate 34 is shorter than the snap-fit plate 32.
[0078] The limiting plate 34 is mounted on the inner ring of the connecting ring 31, and the inner ring of the connecting ring 31 is located within the accommodating cavity. When the connecting ring 31 is assembled, the limiting plate 34 is located inside the sleeve 20. When the connector is inserted into the sleeve 20, the end of the connector is inserted between the two limiting plates 34, thereby limiting the position of the connector.
[0079] The distance between the two limiting plates 34 is the same as the width of the connector, and the slot 43 is provided on the wide side of the connector.
[0080] When the connector is inserted into the sleeve 20, the long side of the connector abuts against the limiting plate 34, and the slot 43 engages with the first buckle 33.
[0081] Furthermore, the limiting plate 34 and the snap-fit plate 32 are staggered relative to each other. For example, the line connecting the two snap-fit plates 32 and the line connecting the two limiting plates 34 are perpendicular to each other. Thus, by limiting the connector in two directions respectively through the two snap-fit plates 32 and the two limiting plates 34, the stability of the connector during installation is further improved.
[0082] Further, please refer to Figure 8The elastic snap-fit assembly 30 further includes a snap-fit piece 35, which is disposed on the outer side of the sleeve 20. The snap-fit piece 35 has a limiting hole 37, and the side wall of the sleeve 20 has a limiting post 24 protruding outward. The limiting hole 37 passes through the limiting post 24. The second buckle 36 is disposed at the end of the snap-fit piece 35, and the end of the snap-fit piece 35 extends toward the second snap-fit hole 22 so that the second buckle 36 corresponds to the second snap-fit hole 22.
[0083] The snap-fit piece 35 can be an integral structure, that is, the snap-fit piece 35 can be directly set as a ring and thus sleeved on the sleeve 20.
[0084] The snap-fit piece 35 can also be a split structure, with one snap-fit piece 35 installed on each side of the sleeve 20. The two snap-fit pieces 35 are combined to form a ring structure, thereby improving the ease of installation of the snap-fit piece 35.
[0085] To improve the connection stability of the snap-fit piece 35, a limiting post 24 protruding outward is provided on the side wall of the sleeve 20, and a corresponding limiting hole 37 is opened on the snap-fit piece 35. The limiting hole 37 is aligned and installed on the limiting post 24.
[0086] Similarly, the end of the snap-fit piece 35 can be bent to form the second snap 36 protruding toward the sleeve 20.
[0087] The second buckle 36 extends into the receiving cavity through the second snap-fit hole 22. When the connector head extends into the sleeve 20, it is locked in place by the second buckle 36 and the slot 43 on the connector head.
[0088] The snap-fit piece 35 is in the shape of a semi-circular arc. There are two snap-fit pieces 35, which are connected to form a ring and sleeved on the outside of the sleeve 20.
[0089] When a split structure is adopted, the number of the snap-fit pieces 35 is set to two, and a snap-fit groove 43 is provided on each side of the connector, so that both sides of the connector can be snapped together at the same time during snap-fit, thereby improving the stability of the connector.
[0090] Further, please refer to Figure 9The quick-release mechanism for the handle further includes a rotating snap-fit assembly 50, which is disposed on the inner wall of the sleeve 20 and at the position of the second snap-fit hole 22. The rotating snap-fit assembly 50 is used to limit the connector in a first direction and a second direction when the connector is snapped with the second buckle 36. The first direction is consistent with the axial direction of the sleeve 20, and the second direction is consistent with the circumferential direction of the sleeve 20.
[0091] Specifically, the rotating snap-fit assembly 50 includes a first connecting plate 51 and a second connecting plate 52. The first connecting plate 51 is disposed on the inner wall of the sleeve 20 and is located on the side of the second snap-fit hole 22 near the opening 23, for limiting the connector head in the first direction. The second connecting plate 52 is disposed on one side of the second snap-fit hole 22 and is connected to the edge of the first connecting plate 51, for limiting the connector head in the second direction.
[0092] The side of the sleeve 20 with the opening 23 is defined as the top, and the side connected to the base 10 is defined as the bottom.
[0093] The first connecting plate 51 is disposed on the top of the second snap-fit hole 22, and the second connecting plate 52 is disposed on the side of the second snap-fit hole 22.
[0094] In this embodiment, there are two first connecting plates 51, which are arranged opposite to each other on opposite sides of the inner wall of the sleeve 20. There is a gap between the two first connecting plates 51, the width of which is adapted to the width of the connector, and the distance between opposite sides of the inner wall of the sleeve 20 is adapted to the length of the connector.
[0095] A gap exists between the two first connecting plates 51, the width of which is adapted to the width of the connector, and the slot 43 is provided on the wide side of the connector.
[0096] Therefore, after inserting the connector, rotate the connector 90 degrees until it abuts against the second connecting plate 52. This limits the position of the connector in the second direction B.
[0097] At the same time, the card slot 43 is aligned with the second card hole 22, and the second buckle 36 is engaged in the card slot 43.
[0098] The first connecting plate 51 abuts against the side wall of the slot 43, thereby limiting the connector in the first direction A.
[0099] In addition, to solve the above problems, the present invention also provides a VR device, which applies the quick-release and detachable controller structure as described above.
[0100] In this embodiment, the connector can be a knob wrist strap 41 or a pressure-sensitive pen 42, etc.
[0101] For example, when playing motion-sensing games, users can replace the connector on the controller with a knob wrist strap 41 type connector, and put the knob wrist strap 41 on their wrist to prevent the controller from slipping off; when using drawing software or tools, users can replace the connector on the controller with a pressure-sensitive pen 42 type connector.
[0102] During assembly, the connector is installed into the receiving cavity inside the sleeve 20 through one side of the opening 23 of the sleeve 20.
[0103] The base 10 includes a base 10 body and a pressure-sensitive pad 11 disposed on the base 10 body. The pressure-sensitive pad 11 enables the detection and acquisition of pressure signals. When the user uses a pressure-sensitive pen 42 type connector, the pressure signal generated is acquired through the pressure-sensitive pad 11 and transmitted to other devices in the VR device, such as VR glasses, the host, etc.
[0104] In addition, a buffer pad 12 can be provided on the pressure-sensitive sheet 11. The buffer pad 12 can be made of silicone material to buffer the pressure of the connector and prevent the pressure-sensitive sheet 11 from being damaged by sudden excessive pressure.
[0105] The sleeve 20 can be cylindrical to facilitate user gripping. The sleeve 20 can also be polygonal or other shapes.
[0106] One end of the sleeve 20 is mounted on the base 10, and the other end face has an opening 23 structure to facilitate the installation of the connector.
[0107] The first snap-fit hole 21 and the second snap-fit hole 22 are provided at different positions on the side wall of the sleeve 20. It can be understood that, in order to be compatible with more different types of connectors, third snap-fit holes, fourth snap-fit holes, etc., can also be provided at other positions on the side wall of the sleeve 20 to adapt to more different types of connectors.
[0108] The side of the sleeve 20 facing the cavity is defined as the inner side, and the side away from the cavity is defined as the outer side.
[0109] The elastic snap-fit assembly 30 is disposed on the outside of the sleeve 20. After the elastic snap-fit assembly 30 is installed, the position of the first snap-fit 33 corresponds exactly to the position of the first snap-fit hole 21, and the first snap-fit 33 extends into the receiving cavity through the first snap-fit hole 21; the position of the second snap-fit 36 corresponds exactly to the position of the second snap-fit hole 22, and the second snap-fit 36 extends into the receiving cavity through the second snap-fit hole 22.
[0110] When the connector is a knob wrist strap 41 type connector, inserting the connector into the sleeve 20 will cause the slot 43 of the knob wrist strap 41 to mate with the second buckle 36, thereby securing the knob wrist strap 41 within the sleeve 20 via the second buckle 36; similarly, when the connector is a pressure-sensitive pen 42 type connector, the slot 43 of the pressure-sensitive pen 42 will mate with the first buckle 33, thereby securing the pressure-sensitive pen 42 within the sleeve 20 via the first buckle 33.
[0111] When using the pressure-sensitive pen 42, in order for the pressure-sensitive pad 11 on the base 10 to successfully collect pressure signals, the pressure-sensitive pen 42 needs to be installed as close as possible to the base 10 and in contact with the base 10.
[0112] Therefore, the first snap-fit hole 21 is located on the side closer to the base 10, so that the pressure-sensitive pen 42 is closer to the base 10 after installation and abuts against the pressure-sensitive sheet 11 on the base 10. The second snap-fit hole 22 is located on the side of the sleeve 20 away from the base 10, thereby making reasonable use of the installation space of the sleeve 20, improving the space utilization rate of the overall structure, and improving the rationality of the structural design.
[0113] The present invention provides first snap-fit holes 21 and second snap-fit holes 22 at different positions on the sleeve 20, and correspondingly provides first buckles 33 and second buckles 36 on the elastic snap-fit assembly 30. Through the mutual cooperation of the first snap-fit holes 21 and the first buckles 33, and the mutual cooperation of the second snap-fit holes 22 and the second buckles 36, different types of connectors can be snapped together. The overall structure is simple and compact, greatly improving the utilization of structural space, and allowing for quick disassembly and interchange of connectors.
[0114] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present invention's specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
