Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of game equipment, and more particularly to an anti-wear rocker structure. Background Art

[0002] The joystick part of the game controller has always been the part that players use most frequently. The traditional joystick angle limiting structure is mainly achieved through contact with the face shell. The limiting method of contact with the face shell will cause the face shell to wear out after long-term use, thereby affecting the smoothness and service life of the joystick. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the deficiency of the prior art that the rocker contacts the surface shell and causes powder grinding, and to provide an anti-wear rocker structure that can prevent the rocker from contacting the surface shell and avoid powder grinding.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0005] Provided is a wear-resistant rocker structure, comprising a rocker cap, a rod body, a rocker seat and a face shell, wherein one end of the rod body is movably connected to the rocker seat, and the other end is connected to the rocker cap, the rocker seat is installed in the face shell, the top of the face shell is provided with an opening, and the rocker cap passes through the opening of the face shell, and is characterized in that it also includes a first limiting portion provided on the rocker cap and a second limiting portion provided on the rocker seat, when the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion cooperate to limit, the angle between the rod body and the top surface of the rocker seat is minimized, and there is a gap between the rocker cap and the face shell.

[0006] The wear-resistant rocker structure of the present invention limits the range of movement of the rocker cap by the cooperation of the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion in the process of tossing the rocker cap to toggle the rod body; the rocker cap is continuously toggled in any direction until the first limiting portion contacts the second limiting portion, and the angle between the rod body and the top surface of the rocker seat reaches a minimum value, that is, the swing angle of the rocker cap is maximum, and the distance between the rocker cap and the face shell reaches a minimum value. At this time, there is a gap between the rocker cap and the face shell, and there is no contact with the face shell, thereby avoiding wear on the face shell and preventing the face shell from being ground into powder, which affects the smoothness and service life of the rocker structure.

[0007] Furthermore, the first limiting portion is located at the bottom edge of the rocker cap. During use, the rocker cap is moved to move the rod body, and the first limiting portion moves with the rocker cap. When the first limiting portion contacts the second limiting portion, the first limiting portion is blocked by the second limiting portion, and the rocker cap and the rod body cannot continue to move in the same direction, thereby limiting the rocker cap. The rocker cap is limited by the contact between the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion respectively provided on the rocker cap and the rocker base. This simplifies assembly, requires fewer parts to realize the function, and has a high degree of device integration, which is conducive to production convenience.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer periphery of the rocker base is provided with a boss extending toward the face shell, and the second limiting portion is the upper surface of the boss. When the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion abut, the angle between the rod body and the rocker base is minimized. Positioning is achieved by contact between the bottom edge of the rocker cap and the upper surface of the boss, resulting in a simple structure, convenient production, and minimal material waste.

[0009] Furthermore, a first limiting edge is provided on the upper surface of the boss, and the abutting position between the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion is located within the first limiting edge. The first limiting edge serves as an auxiliary limiting function for the first limiting portion, further preventing the rocker cap from deflecting.

[0010] Furthermore, a second limiting edge is provided on the upper surface of the boss. The second limiting edge is located within the first limiting edge, and the abutment between the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion is located between the first limiting edge and the second limiting edge. The first limiting edge and the second limiting edge cooperate to limit the position of the first limiting portion from both the inside and outside of the first limiting portion.

[0011] Furthermore, the second limiting portion is a protrusion extending upward from the top of the rocker base, and the first limiting portion is a limiting rib extending downward from the lower surface of the rocker cap. When the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion abut, the angle between the rod body and the rocker base is minimized. The abutment between the limiting rib and the protrusion on the top of the rocker base achieves limiting, resulting in a simple structure, convenient production, and minimal material waste.

[0012] Furthermore, the first limiting portion is symmetrical with respect to the axis of the rod body, so that the swing strokes of the rocker cap in all directions are similar.

[0013] Furthermore, the first limiting portion is an annular rib, so as to prevent the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion from being unable to contact each other due to the position offset of the rocker cap.

[0014] Furthermore, the second limiting portion is an annular protrusion, so that when the first limiting portion contacts the second limiting portion from all directions, the swing stroke of the rocker cap is equal, that is, the limit swing stroke in all directions is equal.

[0015] Furthermore, both the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion are wear-resistant structures, which can prevent the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion from being worn.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0017] The anti-wear rocker structure of the utility model: 1. It can prevent the rocker cap from contacting the face shell to avoid grinding; 2. The limitation is achieved through the contact between the first limiting part and the second limiting part, and the assembly is simple; 3. Fewer parts are required to realize the function, and the device has a high degree of integration, which is conducive to production convenience. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] Example 1

[0028] like Figures 1 to 2 The figure shows a first embodiment of the wear-resistant rocker structure of the present invention, comprising a rocker cap 1, a rod body 2, a rocker seat 3 and a face shell 4. One end of the rod body 2 is movably connected to the rocker seat 3, and the other end is connected to the rocker cap 1. The rocker seat 3 is installed in the face shell 4. An opening is provided at the top of the face shell 4, and the rocker cap 1 passes through the opening of the face shell 4. It is characterized in that it also includes a first limiting portion 11 provided on the rocker cap 1 and a second limiting portion 311 provided on the rocker seat 3. When the first limiting portion 11 and the second limiting portion 311 cooperate to limit, the angle between the rod body 2 and the top surface of the rocker seat 3 is minimized, and there is a gap between the rocker cap 1 and the face shell 4.

[0029] The wear-resistant rocker structure of the present invention limits the range of movement of the rocker cap 1 by the cooperation of the first limiting portion 11 and the second limiting portion 311 during the process of tossing the rocker cap 1 to toss the rod body 2; the rocker cap 1 is continuously tossed in any direction until the first limiting portion 11 contacts the second limiting portion 311, and the angle between the rod body 2 and the top surface of the rocker seat 3 reaches a minimum value, that is, the rocker cap 1 swings at a maximum angle, and the distance between the rocker cap 1 and the face shell 4 reaches a minimum value. At this time, there is a gap between the rocker cap 1 and the face shell 4, and there is no contact with the face shell 4, thereby avoiding wear on the face shell 4 and preventing the face shell 4 from grinding into powder, which affects the smoothness and service life of the rocker. Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown.

[0030] The first limiting portion 11 is located at the bottom edge of the rocker cap 1. During use, the rocker cap 1 is moved to move the rod body 2, and the first limiting portion 11 moves with the rocker cap 1. When the first limiting portion 11 contacts the second limiting portion 311, the first limiting portion 11 is blocked by the second limiting portion 311, and the rocker cap 1 and the rod body 2 cannot continue to move in the same direction, thereby limiting the position of the rocker cap 1. The contact between the first limiting portion 11 and the second limiting portion 311 respectively provided on the rocker cap 1 and the rocker base 3 realizes the limiting of the rocker, which is simple to assemble, requires fewer parts to realize the function, and has a high degree of integration, which is conducive to production convenience.

[0031] The rocker cap 1 is a circular cover-shaped structure with an opening facing downward. The area of ​​the bottom opening of the rocker cap 1 is larger than the opening area of ​​the surface shell 4, which can reduce the dust entering the rocker structure, avoid affecting smooth use, and extend the service life.

[0032] Both the first and second stoppers 11 and 311 are wear-resistant structures, preventing wear and tear. In this embodiment, the first and second stoppers 11 and 311 are made of POM, which exhibits excellent physical, mechanical, and chemical properties, particularly excellent friction resistance. The front shell 4 is made of ABS, which offers excellent dimensional stability and surface gloss during processing, making it easy to paint and color.

[0033] The working principle of the anti-wear rocker structure of this embodiment is as follows:

[0034] When in use, the rocker cap 1 is continuously pushed in any direction to make the rod body 2 swing continuously in any direction until the first limiting portion 11 at the bottom edge of the rocker cap 1 contacts the second limiting portion 311 on the rocker seat 3. The first limiting portion 11 is blocked by the second limiting portion 311, and the rocker cap 1 and the rod body 2 cannot continue to move in the same direction. The angle between the rod body 2 and the top surface of the rocker seat 3 reaches the minimum value, that is, the swing angle of the rocker cap 1 is the maximum, and the distance between the rocker cap 1 and the face shell 4 reaches the minimum value. At this time, there is a gap between the rocker cap 1 and the face shell 4, and there is no contact with the face shell 4, thereby avoiding wear on the face shell 4 and preventing the face shell 4 from grinding, which affects the smoothness and service life of the rocker structure.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] This embodiment is the second embodiment of the wear-resistant rocker structure of the present invention. This embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, except that the outer periphery of the rocker seat 3 is provided with a boss 31 extending toward the face shell 4, and the second limiting portion 311 is the upper surface of the boss 31. When the first limiting portion 11 abuts against the second limiting portion 311, the angle between the rod body 2 and the rocker seat 3 is the smallest. Figures 3 to 4 The limiting is achieved by the abutment between the bottom edge of the rocker cap 1 and the upper surface of the boss 31, which has a simple structure, is easy to produce, and has little material waste.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, the boss 31 is an annular boss, and the second limiting portion 311 is a continuous plane, so that when the rocker cap 1 contacts the second limiting portion 311 from all directions, the swing stroke is equal, that is, the limit swing stroke in all directions is equal.

[0038] In addition, multiple bosses 31 can also be evenly arranged along the circumference of the rocker seat 3, so that when the rocker cap 1 swings in all directions, the first limiting portion 11 will abut against at least one boss 31, and multiple bosses 31 together play a role in limiting the first limiting portion 11.

[0039] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a first limiting edge 312 is provided on the upper surface of the boss 31, and the abutment position between the first limiting portion 11 and the second limiting portion 311 is located within the first limiting edge 312. The first limiting edge 312 serves as an auxiliary limiting function for the first limiting portion 11, further preventing the rocker cap 1 from deviating.

[0040] The upper surface of the boss 31 is further provided with a second limiting edge 313, which is located within the first limiting edge 312. The abutment between the first limiting portion 11 and the second limiting portion 311 is located between the first limiting edge 312 and the second limiting edge 313. The first limiting edge 312 and the second limiting edge 313 cooperate to restrict the position of the first limiting portion 11 from both the inside and outside of the first limiting portion 11.

[0041] like Figure 5 As shown, the first limiting edge 312 and the second limiting edge 313 are both annular rib structures extending upward from the upper surface of the boss 31 .

[0042] The working principle of the anti-wear rocker structure of this embodiment is as follows:

[0043] When the rocker cap 1 is continuously pushed in any direction, the rod body 2 swings with the rocker cap 1, and the first limiting portion 11 located at the bottom edge of the rocker cap 1 moves with the rocker cap 1, and the bottom edge of the rocker cap 1 will move to abut against the upper surface of the boss 31, and the first limiting portion 11 is blocked by the second limiting portion 311. The abutting position of the first limiting portion 11 and the second limiting portion 311 is located between the first limiting edge 312 and the second limiting edge 313, and the rod body 2 cannot continue to move in the same direction. At this time, the angle between the rod body 2 and the rocker seat 3 reaches the minimum, and the distance between the rocker cap 2 and the face shell 4 reaches the minimum, and the rocker cap 1 does not contact the face shell 4 and will not wear the face shell 4. Even if there is a slight offset between the rocker cap 1 and the rod body 2, it will be blocked by the first limiting edge 312 or the second limiting edge 313 and will not contact the face shell 4.

[0044] Example 3

[0045] This embodiment is the third embodiment of the wear-resistant rocker structure of the present invention. This embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, except that the second limiting portion 311 is a protrusion extending upward from the top of the rocker seat 3, and the first limiting portion 11 is a limiting rib extending downward from the lower surface of the rocker cap 1. When the first limiting portion 11 abuts the second limiting portion 311, the angle between the rod body 2 and the rocker seat 3 is the smallest. Figure 5 and Figure 6 The limiting is achieved by the contact between the limiting rib and the top protrusion of the rocker seat 3, which has a simple structure, is easy to produce, and has little material waste.

[0046] The first limiting portion 11 is symmetrical with respect to the axis of the rod body 2, so that the swing strokes of the rocker cap 1 in all directions are similar.

[0047] like Figure 6 As shown, the first limiting portion 11 is an annular rib. To prevent the first limiting portion 11 and the second limiting portion 311 from not being able to contact each other due to the position offset of the rocker cap 1; Figure 6 As shown, the second limiting portion 311 is an annular protrusion. When the first limiting portion 11 contacts the second limiting portion 311 from all directions, the swing stroke of the rocker cap 1 is equal, that is, the limit swing stroke in all directions is equal.

[0048] In addition, a plurality of circularly arranged limiting ribs can be evenly arranged on the lower surface of the rocker cap 1, and a plurality of protrusions aligned one by one with the limiting ribs can be set on the rocker seat 3, so that when the rocker cap 1 swings in all directions, the corresponding groups of limiting ribs and protrusions abut against each other, and together play a role in limiting the rocker cap 1.

[0049] The working principle of the anti-wear rocker structure of this embodiment is as follows:

[0050] When the rocker cap 1 is continuously pushed in any direction, the rod body 2 swings with the rocker cap 1, and the first limiting part 11 moves with the rocker cap 12. The limiting rib extending downward from the lower surface of the rocker cap 1 will move to abut against the protrusion on the top of the rocker seat 3, so that the first limiting part 11 cannot continue to move, and the rod body 2 cannot continue to move in the same direction. At this time, the angle between the rod body 2 and the rocker seat 3 reaches the minimum value, and the distance between the rocker cap 1 and the face shell 4 reaches the minimum value, and the rocker cap 1 and the first limiting part 11 do not contact the face shell 4, and will not wear the face shell 4.

[0051] In the specific contents of the above-mentioned specific implementation methods, the various technical features can be combined in any non-contradictory manner. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the above-mentioned technical features are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0052] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for the purpose of clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods of the present invention. A person skilled in the art will be able to make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation methods here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
