Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of rockers, and in particular to an adjustable rocker structure and a non-contact rocker thereof. Background Art

[0002] A non-contact joystick is a type of joystick that is often used in conjunction with a Hall effect sensor. When the joystick moves, the position of the internal magnet changes, causing changes in the surrounding magnetic field. The Hall sensor can sense this magnetic field change and convert it into an electrical signal. Since this method is based on non-contact detection of the magnetic field, it has higher reliability and longer service life than traditional mechanical contact sensors. For example, in a frequently operated game joystick, the signal will not be inaccurate due to wear of mechanical parts.

If not otherwise stated, the above words have no special meaning, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the meaning of "multiple" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0021] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this specification have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0022] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0023] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 As shown, an adjustable rocker structure includes a base 100, a base 200 is suspended on the base 100, a rocker 300 is fixed outside the base 200, the rocker 300 is hollow and sleeved on the outer wall of the base 200, a sliding block 400 is arranged in the rocker 300, and an elastic member 500 and an adjusting member are arranged between the sliding block 400 and the base 200. By rotating the adjusting member, the distance between the sliding block 400 and the base 200 can be adjusted so that the elastic member 500 is in a compressed state in the axial direction.

[0024] When the present application is implemented, the base 200 is first installed on the base 100, and then the sliding block 400, the elastic member 500 and the adjusting member are installed in the rocker 300, and then the rocker 300 is sleeved and fixed on the outer wall of the base 200, so that the elastic member 500 and the adjusting member are located between the sliding block 400 and the base 200. When the adjusting member is rotated, the distance between the sliding block 400 and the base 200 is shortened, thereby causing the elastic member 500 to be compressed. Therefore, when operating the rocker 300, the whole rocker 300 has a harder feel. When the adjusting member is rotated in the opposite direction, the distance between the sliding block 400 and the base 200 becomes longer, causing the elastic member 500 to rebound. Therefore, when operating the rocker 300, the whole rocker 300 has a softer feel.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present application provides a sliding block 400, an elastic member 500 and an adjusting member in the joystick 300, and controls the distance between the sliding block 400 and the base 200 by rotating the adjusting member, so that the elastic member 500 is compressed or restored, thereby achieving different hand feelings of the joystick 300 when operating, realizing one machine with multiple hand feelings, which can bring different experiences to users and better meet the psychological needs of game players.

[0026] On the basis of the above embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the adjusting member is a screw rod 600 with a thread on the circumferential surface, one end of the screw rod 600 abuts against the base 200, and the other end abuts against the inside of the rocker 300, and the sliding block 400 is sleeved on the screw rod 600 and forms a threaded connection with the screw rod 600. Since both ends of the screw rod 600 are abutted, when the screw rod 600 is rotated, the sliding block 400 will move along the screw rod 600, so that the distance between the sliding block 400 and the base 200 can be adjusted, so that the elastic member 500 is in a compressed state in the axial direction.

[0027] On the basis of the above embodiments, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the elastic member 500 is a spring, the base 200 and the sliding block 400 are coaxially arranged, and a limit step 210 is formed on the outer wall of the base 200. The spring is sleeved on the outside of the base 200 and is arranged in the limit step 210, so as to facilitate guiding the compression direction of the spring. The sliding block 400 includes a first through hole 410 and a ring portion 420, and the screw rod 600 passes through the first through hole 410 to form a threaded connection with the sliding block 400. The spring is arranged between the limit step 210 and the ring portion 420. When the screw rod 600 is rotated, the sliding block 400 will move along the screw rod 600, one end of the spring abuts against the limit step 210, and the other end is compressed by the ring portion 420.

[0028] In some implementations, such as Figure 3 As shown, the screw rod 600 is provided with a limit ring 610 protruding along the circumferential direction, and the limit ring 610 abuts against the inner wall of the rocker 300, so that one end of the screw rod 600 abuts against the inside of the rocker 300, thereby ensuring that when the screw rod 600 is rotated, the sliding block 400 will move along the screw rod 600.

[0029] In some implementations, in combination Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, one end of the screw rod 600 away from the base 200 extends out from the rocker 300, and a mushroom head 620 is sleeved on the end of the screw rod 600 away from the base 200, which makes it easier for the user to operate and rotate the screw rod 600 and the rocker 300.

[0030] The present application also provides a non-contact rocker using the rocker structure, such as Figure 4 As shown, it includes a circuit board 10, on which a base 100 is arranged, a first magnetic component 700 and a second magnetic component 800 are arranged on the circuit board 10, the first magnetic component 700 and the second magnetic component 800 are both sleeved on the rocker 300 and are perpendicular to each other in the horizontal direction, the rocker 300 can drive the first magnetic component 700 and the second magnetic component 800 to deflect, and a Hall sensor 11 is arranged on the circuit board 10, and the Hall sensor 11 is respectively located below the first magnetic component 700 and the second magnetic component 800, when the rocker 300 is operated to swing, the first magnetic component 700 and the second magnetic component 800 will be driven to deflect, thereby causing a change in the surrounding magnetic field. The Hall sensor 11 can sense this magnetic field change and convert it into an electrical signal, thereby forming a non-contact operation based on the magnetic field.

[0031] Further speaking on the basis of the above embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the first magnetic group includes a first limit seat 710, which is sleeved on the outside of the rocker 300, and first support rods 720 are arranged at both ends of the first limit seat 710, and a first bracket 730 is arranged below the first support rod 720. The first support rod 720 is placed on the first bracket 730 to form a support for the first limit seat 710. When the rocker 300 contacts the first limit seat 710 during the swinging process, the first support rod 720 is caused to deflect axially in the first bracket 730. A first accommodating cavity 711 is arranged on one side of the first limit seat 710, and a first magnet 712 is arranged in the first accommodating cavity 711. The first magnet 712 is located above the Hall sensor 11. When the first support rod 720 deflects axially in the first bracket 730, it will drive the first magnet 712 to deflect, thereby causing a change in the surrounding magnetic field.

[0032] Further speaking on the basis of the above embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, positioning grooves 713 are provided on both sides of the first limiting seat 710, and a positioning block 310 is protruded on the side wall of the rocker 300. When the first limiting seat 710 is sleeved on the outside of the rocker 300, the positioning block 310 is embedded in the positioning groove 713, thereby suspending the rocker 300 and the base 200 above the base 100.

[0033] Further speaking on the basis of the above embodiment, Figure 6 As shown, the second magnetic group includes a second limit seat 810, which is sleeved on the outside of the rocker 300. Second support rods 820 are arranged at both ends of the second limit seat 810. The second support rod 820 is arranged vertically with the first support. A second bracket 830 is arranged below the second support rod 820. The second support rod 820 is placed on the second bracket 830 to form a support for the second limit seat 810. When the rocker 300 contacts the second limit seat 810 during the swinging process, the second support rod 820 is caused to deflect axially in the second bracket 830. A second accommodating cavity 811 is arranged on one side of the second limit seat 810. A second magnet 812 is arranged in the second accommodating cavity 811. The second magnet 812 is located above the Hall sensor 11. When the second support rod 820 deflects axially in the second bracket 830, it will drive the second magnet 812 to deflect, thereby causing a change in the surrounding magnetic field.

[0034] In some embodiments, in combination Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, a support plate 20 is also provided between the circuit board 10 and the base 100, and the support plate 20 plays a supporting and insulating role between the circuit board 10 and the base 100. A shell 30 is also provided on the base 100, and the shell 30 covers the top of the first magnetic component 700 and the second magnetic component 800. The rocker 300 extends from the top of the shell 30, and a dust cover 40 is provided between the rocker 300 and the shell 30. The dust cover 40 is used to prevent dust from being accumulated in the shell 30 and then on the base 100, thereby affecting the deflection of the first magnetic component 700 and the second magnetic component 800.

[0035] The details of the exemplary embodiments described above are not limited to the embodiments described above, and the invention may be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the invention.
