Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a signal input device, in particular to a signal input device for electronic equipment. Background Art
[0002] At present, the existing game controller signal input devices mainly include rocker potentiometers, shaft potentiometers and buttons. The reset of these signal input devices relies on springs. For example, the game controller rocker reset structure disclosed in the Chinese patent announcement number CN 220176018 U, entitled "A game controller rocker device and game controller" is implemented by a reset spring. Springs are a common mechanical element and are widely used in various fields. However, long-term or frequent use often leads to spring fatigue, resulting in a decrease in the performance of the spring and a shortened lifespan, affecting the use effect of the spring device, and even causing the spring to fail.
[0003] At the same time, most of the existing game controller signal input devices are still unable to achieve the feel resistance adjustment of the control parts (rocker, shaft or button lifting slider), resulting in poor feel. Although there are some prior technologies for improving the feel resistance, either springs that are prone to mechanical fatigue are still used, or the structural design is too complicated. For example, the utility model patent with the Chinese patent announcement number of CN 114470740 A and the name of "a game controller and its rocker feedback device" discloses a rocker feedback device based on improving the feel. Not only is the structural design complex and difficult to assemble, but it also still uses spring parts that are prone to mechanical fatigue. For example, the utility model patent with the Chinese patent announcement number of CN 111318011 B and the name of "a game controller and its rocker feedback force device" discloses a rocker feedback force device for improving the feel. The structural design is extremely complex, there are many accessories, the cost is high, it is difficult to maintain, and the service life is short. Therefore, the development of an electronic device signal input device that does not rely on the reset of the spring part and can realize the feel resistance adjustment function has become a problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art.
