[0038] Regarding the position information corresponding to the output, taking a game controller as an example, the position information refers to the position information output by the player through the tilting operation of the joystick body 210, which can be the instruction information for completing the interaction with the game software.

[0039] The rocker assembly 200 mainly includes a rocker body 210 and two rocker arms 220, and the number of capacitive sensing components 100 is adapted to the number of rocker arms 220. A swinging member 230 is also provided on the rocker arm 220. When the user moves the rocker body 210, the rocker arm 220 is driven to operate. The swinging member 230 swings at the first facing interval 104 and the second facing interval 105 as the rocker arm 220 operates.

The swinging member 230 can be integrally formed with the rocker arm 220, or the swinging member 230 can be installed on the rocker arm 220. A rocker device 10 usually includes two sets of capacitive sensing components 100.

[0040] The capacitance detection chip 320 is used to detect the capacitance value of the first capacitor and the capacitance value of the second capacitor, and the electric control board 310 is used to output corresponding position information according to the change in the ratio of the capacitance value of the first capacitor to the capacitance value of the second capacitor.

[0041] Regarding the electric control board 310, the electric control board 310 is a circuit board with intelligent automation characteristics, which plays the role of the main control center in the equipment. The electric control board 310 usually includes a power input terminal and a power output terminal, a mounting plate, a control module, etc. The power input terminal and the power output terminal are used to connect an external power supply and supply power to other components.

[0042] Regarding the capacitance detection chip 320, the capacitance detection chip 320 is a chip that can convert capacitance into voltage or other quantities, and is commonly used in capacitance detection circuits. The basic measurement principle of the capacitance detection chip 320 is to charge and discharge the measured capacitance and the reference capacitance simultaneously in opposite timing, and convert the difference between the measured capacitance and the reference capacitance into a voltage output through current integration, low-pass filtering, amplification, etc. In this embodiment, the capacitance detection chip 320 is used to detect the capacitance value of the first capacitor and the capacitance value of the second capacitor.

[0043] The utility model determines the position information input by the user through the rocker assembly 200 by detecting the change in the ratio of the capacitance values ​​of the two capacitors, thereby avoiding the influence of environmental factors (temperature and humidity, etc.) on the capacitance value, thereby improving the control accuracy of the rocker device 10.

[0044] Preferably, the first electrode sheet 110 is in a plane, the second electrode sheet 120 and the third electrode sheet 130 are usually in the same plane, and the plane where the first electrode sheet 110 is located is usually parallel to the plane where the second electrode sheet 120 and the third electrode sheet 130 are located. Of course, it is also possible that the second electrode sheet 120 and the third electrode sheet 130 are not in the same plane, and it is also possible that the plane where the first electrode sheet 110 is located is usually not parallel to the plane where the second electrode sheet 120 and the third electrode sheet 130 are located, which can also eliminate the influence of environmental factors (temperature, humidity, etc.) on the capacitance value, thereby improving the control accuracy of the rocker device 10.

[0045] In one embodiment, see Figure 6The first electrode sheet 110 / the second electrode sheet 120 / the third electrode sheet 130 comprises an electrode sheet body 101 and a connecting portion 102 provided on the electrode sheet body 101; the connecting portion 102 has a first end and a second end arranged opposite to each other, the first end is connected to the electrode sheet body 101, an arcuate arch portion 102a is formed between the first end and the second end, the arcuate arch portion 102a abuts against the electric control board and is electrically connected. Preferably, in order to improve the stability of the connection between the arcuate arch portion 102a and the electric control board, the arcuate arch portion 102a is provided with a raised sub-portion 102b, and the raised sub-portion 102b abuts against the electric control board. In this way, in this embodiment, through the setting of the connecting part 102, the first electrode sheet 110 / the second electrode sheet 120 / the third electrode sheet 130 itself can be directly connected to the circuit board, without the need for additional connecting parts 102 such as wires, thereby simplifying the connection structure between the first electrode sheet 110 / the second electrode sheet 120 / the third electrode sheet 130 and the circuit board, and further simplifying the structure of the joystick device 10, which is more conducive to the miniaturization of the joystick device 10.

[0046] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 and Figure 5 The capacitive sensor assembly 100 further includes an electrode sheet mounting seat 140, which is provided with mounting grooves 141 for mounting the first electrode sheet 110, the second electrode sheet 120 and the third electrode sheet 130. The mounting grooves 141 are through grooves, and are generally configured to match the shape of the electrode sheets.

[0047] On the basis of the previous embodiment, the electrode sheet body 101 and the connecting portion 102 are arranged at an angle; the connecting portion 102 is snap-fitted with the mounting seat. Thus, this embodiment optimizes the structure between the mounting seat and the electrode sheet, so that the components of the capacitive sensor assembly 100 are directly connected through their own structure without the need for an additional connecting structure, further simplifying the structure of the rocker device 10.

[0048] In an exemplary embodiment, see Figure 6 , the first electrode sheet 110 / the second electrode sheet 120 / the third electrode sheet 130 further include a folding portion 103, and the connecting portion 102 and the folding portion 103 are arranged on the same side of the electrode sheet body 101.

Preferably, the folding portion 103 includes two folding sub-portions, and the folding angle of the two folding sub-portions is preferably within the range of 30 degrees to 150 degrees.

[0049] In one embodiment, the connecting portion 102 and the folding portion 103 are arranged on a side of the electrode sheet body 101 away from the first facing spacing 104 / the second facing spacing 105. By arranging the connecting portion 102 and the folding portion 103 on a side away from the first facing spacing 104 / the second facing spacing 105, the swinging of the swinging member 230 can be facilitated, and the spacing between the first electrode sheet 110 and the third electrode sheet 130 and the spacing between the second electrode sheet 120 and the third electrode sheet 130 can be reduced, thereby miniaturizing the capacitive sensing component 100.

[0050] In one embodiment, the electrode sheet body 101 , the connecting portion 102 and the folding portion 103 are integrally formed.

[0051] In one embodiment, the rocker assembly 200 includes a rocker body 210, a rocker arm 220 and a swinging member 230 disposed on the rocker arm 220, wherein the rocker arm 220 is sleeved on the rocker arm, and the rocker arm pushes the rocker arm 220 to generate swings in a first direction and a second direction perpendicular to each other; the swinging member 230 is swingably disposed within the first facing spacing 104 and the second facing spacing 105.

[0052] The rocker device 10 mainly includes a rocker body 210 and two rocker arms 220, and the number of capacitive sensing components 100 is adapted to the number of rocker arms 220. A swinging member 230 is also provided on the rocker arm 220. When the user moves the rocker body 210, the rocker arm 220 is driven to operate. The swinging member 230 swings at the first facing interval 104 and the second facing interval 105 as the rocker arm 220 operates. The capacitance value of the first capacitor and the capacitance value of the second capacitor can change as the position of the rocker body 210 changes. The swinging member 230 can be integrally formed with the rocker arm 220, or the swinging member 230 can be installed on the rocker arm 220. A rocker device 10 usually includes two sets of capacitive sensing components 100.

[0053] In one embodiment, in order to reduce the swing space required for the swing member 230 between the first facing spacing 104 / the second facing spacing 105, the end surface of the swing member 230 inserted into one end of the first facing spacing 104 and the second facing spacing 105 is set in a convex arc shape.
