DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer, the technical solution of the utility model will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work belong to the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0033] refer to Figure 1-2 The specific embodiment of the utility model provides an H-shift mechanism with adjustable force lever, comprising:

[0034] A gear lever shaft 2, the middle end of which is rotatably connected to the main bracket 9;

[0035] Steel ball 7, the steel ball 7 is slidably connected to the bottom end of the gear lever shaft 2 along the axial direction of the gear lever shaft 2, and is also abutted against the shift groove on the gear seat body 8 through the compression spring 12, and different shift grooves correspond to reverse or different forward gears;

[0036] The force adjusting screw 4 is threadedly connected to the bottom end of the shift rod shaft 2 , and the compression spring 12 abuts between the bottom of the force adjusting screw 4 and the steel ball 7 .

[0037] In the simulated vehicle driving game, the driving simulator control mechanism is the main operating component of the game player. The simulated gear shifting of the vehicle driving is realized through the control mechanism to achieve acceleration or deceleration; however, the traditional gear shift mechanism has the problem that the operating force cannot be adjusted. For different users, the fixed operating force cannot meet all user needs, which will cause the user's experience to be relatively simple. In this application, the steel ball 7 is abutted against the shift groove on the gear seat body 8 through the compression spring 12, and then the proximity switch is triggered to realize the transmission of the shift signal; the main function of the force adjustment screw 4 is to adjust the resilience of the compression spring 12, and then change the force of the gear lever shaft 2 to drive the steel ball 7 to transfer different shift grooves, thereby changing the shift force; specifically, by manually rotating the force adjustment screw 4, the compression spring 12 is extended or compressed for a distance, so as to realize the release or accumulation of elastic force of the compression spring 12, and the steel ball 7 is under the abutment of the compression spring 12. When transferring in different shift grooves, it feedbacks different shift forces and produces different hand feelings. On the whole, this application can achieve different shift feel by adjusting the shift force to meet more user needs.

[0038] Further optimization plans also include:

[0039] The force adjusting sleeve 6 is threadedly sleeved on the bottom end of the force adjusting screw 4 , the steel ball 7 is slidably connected in the force adjusting sleeve 6 along the axial direction of the shift rod shaft 2 , and the compression spring 12 is located in the force adjusting sleeve 6 .

[0040] The main function of the force adjustment sleeve 6 is to confine the steel ball 7 and the compression spring 12 so that the steel ball 7 is more stable during the sliding process or when transferring in different shift grooves.

[0041] Further optimization plans also include:

[0042] The guide sleeve 14 is slidably connected in the force regulating sleeve 6 along the axial direction of the gear lever shaft 2 , and the steel ball 7 is rollingly fitted on the bottom of the guide sleeve 14 , and the steel ball 7 is slidably connected in the force regulating sleeve 6 through the guide sleeve 14 .

[0043] The main function of the guide sleeve 14 is to limit the steel ball 7 so that the steel ball 7 is slidably connected in the force adjustment sleeve 6 through the guide sleeve 14, and when the steel ball 7 transfers in different shift grooves, it can rotate by friction with the shift grooves, making the entire shift process smoother.

[0044] Further optimization plans also include:

[0045] Flat washers, the first group of flat washers are rotatably connected to the bottom end surface of the force adjusting screw 4 and abut against the top end of the compression spring 12 , and the second group of flat washers abut between the bottom end of the compression spring 12 and the top end of the guide sleeve 14 .

[0046] When adjusting the shifting force, since the first group of flat washers is rotatably connected to the bottom end surface of the force adjusting screw 4, the state of the compression spring 12 will not be affected during the manual rotation of the force adjusting screw 4; the main functions of the first group of flat washers and the second group of flat washers are to ensure that the compression spring 12 is not deflected during the extension or compression process, and can achieve stable colinear extension or compression.

[0047] Further optimization plans also include:

[0048] The magnet 13 is installed between the second set of flat washers and the top end of the guide sleeve 14 , and is arranged corresponding to the shift groove on the gear seat body 8 , that is, it is arranged corresponding to the near start end in the gear seat body 8 .

[0049] The function of the magnet 13 is to trigger the proximity switch. When the steel ball 7 is driven by the gear lever shaft 2 to enter different gear shift grooves, different proximity switches are triggered, thereby realizing the transmission of forward, acceleration or reverse instructions.

[0050] Further optimization plans also include:

[0051] A first elastic force adjusting member, which is arranged at a threaded connection between the shift lever shaft 2 and the force adjusting screw 4;

[0052] The second elastic force adjusting component is arranged at the threaded connection between the force adjusting screw rod 4 and the force adjusting sleeve 6 .

[0053] The first elastic force adjusting member and the second elastic force adjusting member are both members for adjusting the compressed state of the compression spring 12 .

[0054] Further optimizing the solution, the first elastic force adjustment component includes:

[0055] A first quick-plug pin 3, the first quick-plug pin 3 passes through the first through hole on the gear lever shaft 2 and the threaded section of the force adjusting screw 4; the main function of the first quick-plug pin 3 is to limit the relative rotation of the force adjusting screw 4 and the gear lever shaft 2 during the gear shifting process after the force adjusting screw 4 is adjusted, so as to ensure a stable gear shifting force;

[0056] The first adjustment channel 10, the first adjustment channel 10 is radially opened in the threaded section at the top of the force adjusting screw 4, the first quick plug-in pin 3 passes through the first adjustment channel 10, and the size of the first adjustment channel 10 is larger than the inner diameter of the first through hole. This arrangement can achieve that when the force adjusting screw 4 and the gear lever shaft 2 are in different connection positions, the first quick plug-in pin 3 can still limit the relative rotation of the force adjusting screw 4 and the gear lever shaft 2 during the gear shifting process.

[0057] Further optimizing the solution, the second elastic force adjustment component includes:

[0058] The second quick-plug pin 5 passes through the threaded section of the force adjusting screw 4 and the second through hole on the force adjusting sleeve 6; the main function of the second quick-plug pin 5 is to limit the relative rotation of the force adjusting screw 4 and the force adjusting sleeve 6 during the gear shifting process after the force adjusting screw 4 is adjusted, so as to ensure a stable gear shifting force;

[0059] The second adjustment channel 11 is radially opened in the threaded section at the bottom end of the force adjusting screw 4, and the second quick plug-in pin 5 passes through the second adjustment channel 11. The size of the second adjustment channel 11 is larger than the inner diameter of the second through hole. This arrangement can achieve that when the force adjusting screw 4 and the force adjusting sleeve 6 are in different connection positions, the second quick plug-in pin 5 can still limit the relative rotation of the force adjusting screw 4 and the force adjusting sleeve 6 during the gear shifting process.

[0060] Further optimization plans also include:

[0061] The gear handle 1 is threadedly connected to the top end of the gear lever shaft 2.

[0062] The gear lever 1 is a hand-held part, which effectively improves the grip feeling.
