[0034] 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 clearly and completely in conjunction with the drawings in the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0035] The features of the terms "first" and "second" in the specification and claims of the utility model may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the utility model, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more.

[0036] Combine the following Figure 1-Figure 12 The present invention describes a VR training simulator.

[0037] like Figure 1As shown, in an embodiment of the utility model, the VR training simulator includes: a base unit 1, a bracket unit 2, a seat unit 3 and a VR helmet. The bracket unit 2 is arranged on the base unit 1 and is detachably connected to the base unit 1, the seat unit 3 is detachably connected to the bracket unit 2, and the VR helmet 4 is used to display the simulation image. Among them, the bracket unit 2 is provided with a driver, and when the driver rotates, it can drive the seat unit 3 to rotate.

[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, the base unit 1 is the bearing and installation basis of the entire system, the bracket unit 2 is used to support the seat unit 3 and drive the seat unit 3 to rotate to simulate flight, and the VR helmet 4 is used to display the simulation image. In this embodiment, the VR training simulator is split into multiple detachable units, which simplifies the structure of the VR training simulator and reduces the manufacturing cost. At the same time, when the VR training simulator fails, the faulty part can be disassembled separately for maintenance, which reduces the difficulty of maintenance.

[0039] The VR training simulator provided by the embodiment of the utility model simplifies the structure of the VR training simulator and reduces the manufacturing cost by arranging the base unit, the bracket unit and the seat unit to be detachably connected. When the VR training simulator fails, the faulty part can be disassembled separately for repair, which reduces the difficulty of maintenance.

[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, in an embodiment of the utility model, the base unit 1 includes: a frame 11, a plurality of second adjustment legs 12 and a plurality of moving wheels 13. The frame 11 is used to carry the bracket unit 2 and the seat unit 3, and the bracket unit 2 is connected to the top surface of the frame 11. The bottom surface of the frame 11 is provided with a plurality of second adjustment legs 12, and each second adjustment leg 12 is retractable to adjust the height of the frame 11. The bottom surface of the frame 11 is also provided with a plurality of moving wheels 13 to drive the entire VR training simulator to move.

[0041] like Figure 3 As shown, in the embodiment of the utility model, the bracket unit 2 further includes: a pair of brackets 201, a transmission assembly, a rotating shaft 204 and a first mounting plate 207. The pair of brackets 201 are relatively arranged on the base unit 1, the transmission assembly is connected to the driver, the rotating shaft 204 is connected to the transmission assembly, and the rotating shaft 204 is located above the pair of brackets 201. The first mounting plate 207 is arranged on the rotating shaft 204, and the first mounting plate 207 is detachably connected to the seat unit 3, and the rotating shaft 204 can drive the first mounting plate 207 to rotate when it rotates.

[0042] Specifically, the bottom surface of each bracket 201 is connected to the frame 11, and the top surface of each bracket 201 is provided with a bearing 206. Both ends of the rotating shaft 204 are inserted into a pair of bearings 206. When the driver rotates, the rotating shaft 204 is driven to rotate through the transmission assembly, and then the seat unit 3 is driven to rotate to simulate the flight state.

[0043] Further, in this embodiment, the transmission assembly includes: a first pulley 213, a second pulley 210 and a synchronous belt 211. In this embodiment, the driver is a motor 215. The motor 215 is connected to the first pulley 213 through a coupling 214, driving the first pulley 213 to rotate, the first pulley 213 is connected to the second pulley 210 through the synchronous belt 211, and then drives the second pulley 210 to rotate, and the second pulley 210 drives the rotating shaft 204 to rotate.

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, in the embodiment of the present utility model, the bracket unit 2 further includes: a paddle 205 and a limit switch 212. The paddle 205 is arranged on the rotating shaft 204, and the limit switch 212 is arranged on the bracket 201. The limit switch 212 is used to trigger the driver to stop the action when the paddle 205 is opposite to it.

[0045] Specifically, a paddle 205 is provided at each end of the rotating shaft 204, and when the rotating shaft 204 rotates, the paddle 205 can be driven to rotate together. A limit switch 212 is provided on each bracket 201. When the paddle 205 rotates to be opposite to the limit switch 212, the limit switch 212 sends a signal to the controller, and the controller controls the driver to stop the action, so that the seat unit 3 rotates to a preset angle. Optionally, in an embodiment of the utility model, the preset angle is 90°, that is, when the rotating shaft 204 rotates 90°, the paddle 205 is opposite to the limit switch 212, triggering the driver to stop the action.

[0046] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the paddle 205 includes a first sheet and a second sheet connected, and the first sheet is arranged vertically to the second sheet. When the rotating shaft 204 is in the initial state, the first sheet is opposite to the limit switch 212, and the driver does not act; when the rotating shaft 204 rotates 90°, the second sheet is opposite to the limit switch 212, triggering the driver to stop; correspondingly, when the rotating shaft 204 rotates 90° in the opposite direction, the first sheet returns to the initial position, and it is opposite to the limit switch 212, triggering the driver to stop again. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the rotating shaft 204 rotates 90° and rotates in the opposite direction to return to the initial position, the driver will be triggered to stop, so that the rotation angle of the VR training simulator is set to 90°.

[0047] It can be understood that: in the embodiment of the present utility model, the rotation angle of the shaft 204 can be determined according to the angle between the two sheets on the paddle 205. For example, if the angle between the two sheets is 120°, when the shaft rotates 60°, the second sheet is opposite to the limit switch 212, and when the paddle 205 rotates 60° in the opposite direction, the first sheet is opposite to the limit switch 212, so that the rotation angle of the VR training simulator is 60°. Therefore, by changing the angle between the two sheets on the paddle 205, the VR training simulator can be rotated to various angles, not limited to 90° in the present application.

[0048] like Figure 3 As shown, in the embodiment of the present utility model, the bracket unit 2 further includes: a limit block 209 and a limit plate 203. The limit block 209 is arranged on the rotating shaft 204, and the limit plate 203 is arranged on the bracket 201. When the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 204 reaches a preset angle, the limit block 209 abuts against the limit plate 203.

[0049] Specifically, the VR training simulator provided by the embodiment of the utility model is provided with a mechanical limit in addition to the signal-controlled limit structure. The limit block 209 is provided on the rotating shaft 204. The setting position of the limit block 209 determines the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 204. When the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 204 reaches a preset angle, the limit block 209 abuts against the limit plate 203, so that when the limit switch 212 fails, it can also play the role of mechanical limit.

[0050] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the bracket unit 2 further includes: a mounting frame 202 and an exterior decoration 208. The mounting frame 202 is used to install the driver, and the exterior decoration 208 is installed on the bracket 201 to decorate the bracket 201.

[0051] Furthermore, if Figure 4 As shown, the mounting frame 202 includes a first frame 2021 and a second frame 2022. The first frame 2021 has two opposite mounting arms, each of which is provided with a racetrack-shaped threaded hole, the second frame 2022 is threadedly connected to the driver, and both sides of the second frame 2022 are threadedly connected to the racetrack-shaped threaded holes. The advantage of this arrangement is that the driver can tighten the synchronous belt 211 by its own weight, thereby avoiding the need to set up a separate tensioning device and simplifying the structure of the VR training simulator.

The first support member 313 is connected to the slider 312, and the throttle platform 315 is arranged on the top surface of the first support member 313. When the slider 312 slides along the slideway 311, the throttle platform 315 can be driven to slide in the horizontal direction to adjust the distance between the trainee and the throttle platform 315.

[0056] Furthermore, the throttle platform assembly 31 further includes a supporting plate 314 . The supporting plate 314 is disposed on the top surface of the first supporting member 313 , and the throttle platform 315 is disposed on the supporting plate 314 .
