Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of game controller technology, and in particular to a gun-shaped game controller. Background Technology

[0002] A game controller is an important control device for video games. It is usually made of materials such as plastic and has an ergonomic design that makes it easy for players to hold and operate. Game controllers are equipped with multiple control elements such as buttons, joysticks, and triggers, which can realize different game operation commands. By connecting to devices such as game consoles or computers, game controllers can provide players with a more precise and sensitive control experience, enabling players to better control the character's movements, perform attacks and defenses in the game.

[0003] Existing technologies, such as the utility model patent with publication number CN216497426U, disclose a modular multi-functional game control device. This patent uses a handle and a gun handle. The handle's function buttons and directional control buttons / joysticks are connected to a main control board and used to transmit hand motion signals to the main control board. The main control board processes and analyzes these motion signals and sends them to the corresponding receiving device through a first communication module. The front end of the gun handle and the rear end of the handle can be detachably and fixedly connected and electrically connected. The front end of the handle is equipped with an infrared image acquisition sensor. When the gun handle and the handle are connected, the signal from pulling the trigger can... This invention analyzes and outputs data via a gamepad; it can be used as a two-handed grip gamepad, or combined with a gun handle to form a gun-shaped game controller for shooting games. It offers flexible and convenient use, eliminating the need for a separate gun-shaped game controller, thus reducing costs. This addresses the issue that some shooting games require a gun-shaped game controller, leading to game operators or users needing to equip themselves with various types of game controllers, resulting in high costs, management difficulties, and wasted resources when only one type is in use.

[0004] When playing FPS games using a gun-shaped gamepad, there is a problem: the control buttons of existing gun-shaped gamepads, such as the one mentioned above, are all located on the side of the gun. When the operator is using the gamepad, they hold the gun to improve accuracy. However, because the control buttons are located on the side of the gun, the operator is prone to accidentally pressing the control buttons while holding the gun, which can cause the game to pause suddenly or the game items to be used inadvertently, resulting in a poor gaming experience. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies where operators may accidentally touch control buttons while holding the gun, leading to sudden game pauses or misuse of game items, resulting in a poor gaming experience. Therefore, this invention proposes a gun-shaped game controller.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a gun-shaped game controller, comprising a grip, a gun body, and a trigger, wherein the gun body is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the grip, a trigger is mounted on the side surface of the grip, the trigger is electrically connected to the gun body, a control button is mounted on the side surface of the gun body, the control button is electrically connected to the gun body, and auxiliary components are provided on the surface of the gun body.

[0007] The auxiliary component includes an assisting unit, which includes an assembly guide rail. The assembly guide rail is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the gun body. A connecting slider is slidably connected to the surface of the assembly guide rail. A bracket is fixedly connected to the side surface of the connecting slider. A baffle is fixedly connected to the side of the bracket closest to the gun body. A handle is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the connecting slider.

[0008] The auxiliary component also includes a limiting unit, which includes a linkage block. A storage cavity is formed on the surface of the handle. The linkage block is slidably connected to the inner wall of the storage cavity. A positioning pin is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the linkage block. A limit spring is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the linkage block. The side of the limit spring away from the linkage block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage cavity. A guide hole is formed at the connection between the linkage block and the positioning pin. A pressing block is slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide hole between the linkage block and the positioning pin. A slot is formed on the lower surface of the assembly guide rail. The positioning pin is inserted into the inner wall of the slot.

[0009] Preferably, a reinforcing rib is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the bracket, and the reinforcing rib is fixedly connected to the side surface of the connecting slider. The reinforcing rib can increase the structural strength of the connection between the bracket and the connecting slider, thereby improving the stability of the bracket.

[0010] Preferably, the shield is in contact with the surface of the control button. The shield can block the control button when it is on the surface of the control button, thereby reducing the probability of the operator accidentally touching the control button.

[0011] Preferably, the positioning pin passes through the upper surface of the connecting slider and is slidably connected to the inner wall of the storage cavity. The position of the handle can be locked when it is inside the slot.

[0012] Preferably, the squeezing block is slidably connected to the inner wall of the storage cavity, and the squeezing block penetrates the side surface of the handle. The squeezing block allows the operator to adjust the state of the linkage block, thereby facilitating the operator to unlock the handle.

[0013] Preferably, there are two slots, which are horizontally distributed about the assembly guide rail. The slots can restrict the position of the positioning pin to ensure that the positioning pin can lock the position of the handle.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] In this invention, by setting an auxiliary component, when playing FPS games with a gun-shaped game controller, the gun-shaped game controller is connected to a game console or other terminal device. After the connection is completed, the operator can control the game using the motion sensing function of the gun-shaped game controller. When the operator needs to use the control button to perform a specific operation, pressing the squeezing block, guided by the guide hole and the storage cavity, pushes the linkage block downward. The linkage block squeezes the limit spring, which is deformed and loses its constraint on the linkage block. The linkage block, now free of constraint, pulls down the positioning pin, which is pulled out of the slot and loses its lock on the handle. Pulling the handle towards the trigger, the handle pulls the connecting slider, which, guided by the assembly guide rail, pulls in conjunction with the bracket. The shield gradually moves away from the control button. When the connecting slider moves to its maximum distance, the control button is fully exposed. Then the squeezing block can be released, and the squeezing block loses its force on the linkage block. The linkage block loses the pressure on the limit spring, and the limit spring rebounds without pressure. It also pushes the positioning pin to reset in conjunction with the linkage block. The positioning pin resets and inserts into another slot, relocking the handle's position. When the handle is relocked, the operator can operate the control button to perform specific operations. By setting up auxiliary components, the buttons on the handle can be shielded and protected, thereby reducing the problem of operators accidentally touching buttons and causing improper operation, which leads to a poor gaming experience. It also further improves the operation accuracy of the game controller. Attached Figure Description

[0023] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a gun-shaped game controller, including a grip 1, a gun body 2 and a trigger 3. The gun body 2 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the grip 1. The trigger 3 is installed on the side surface of the grip 1 and is electrically connected to the gun body 2. A control button 4 is installed on the side surface of the gun body 2 and is electrically connected to the gun body 2. An auxiliary component 5 is provided on the surface of the gun body 2.

[0024] In this embodiment: the auxiliary component 5 includes an assisting unit 51, the assisting unit 51 includes an assembly guide rail 511, the assembly guide rail 511 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the gun body 2, the surface of the assembly guide rail 511 is slidably connected to a connecting slider 512, the side surface of the connecting slider 512 is fixedly connected to a bracket 513, the side of the bracket 513 near the gun body 2 is fixedly connected to a baffle plate 514, and the lower surface of the connecting slider 512 is fixedly connected to a handle 515.

[0025] The auxiliary component 5 also includes a limiting unit 52, which includes a linkage block 522. A storage cavity 521 is formed on the surface of the handle 515. The linkage block 522 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the storage cavity 521. A positioning pin 523 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the linkage block 522. A limit spring 524 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the linkage block 522. The side of the limit spring 524 away from the linkage block 522 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage cavity 521. A guide hole is formed at the connection between the linkage block 522 and the positioning pin 523. A pressing block 525 is slidably connected between the linkage block 522 and the positioning pin 523 on the inner wall of the guide hole. A slot 526 is formed on the lower surface of the assembly guide rail 511. The positioning pin 523 is inserted into the inner wall of the slot 526.

[0026] Specifically, a reinforcing rib 516 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the bracket 513. The reinforcing rib 516 is fixedly connected to the side surface of the connecting slider 512. The reinforcing rib 516 can increase the structural strength of the connection between the bracket 513 and the connecting slider 512, thereby improving the stability of the bracket 513.

[0027] Specifically, the shield 514 is in contact with the surface of the control button 4.

[0028] In this embodiment, the shield 514 can shield the control button 4 when it is on the surface of the control button 4, thereby reducing the probability of the operator accidentally touching the control button 4.

[0029] Specifically, the positioning pin 523 penetrates the upper surface of the connecting slider 512 and slides with the inner wall of the storage cavity 521. The positioning pin 523 can lock the position of the handle 515 when it is inside the slot 526.

[0030] In this embodiment: the extrusion block 525 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the storage cavity 521, and the extrusion block 525 penetrates the side surface of the handle 515.

[0031] In this embodiment, the squeezing block 525 allows the operator to adjust the state of the linkage block 522, thereby facilitating the operator to unlock the handle 515.

[0032] Specifically, there are two slots 526, which are horizontally distributed about the assembly guide rail 511. The slots 526 can restrict the position of the positioning pin 523 to ensure that the positioning pin 523 can lock the position of the handle 515.

[0033] Working Principle: When playing FPS games using a gun-shaped game controller, the controller is connected to a game console or other terminal device. After connection, the operator can control the game using the motion sensing function of the controller. When the operator needs to perform a specific operation using control button 4, pressing the compression block 525 causes it to push the linkage block 522 downwards under the guidance of the guide hole and the receiving cavity 521. The linkage block 522 compresses the limit spring 524, causing it to deform and lose its constraint on the linkage block 522. This release of constraint causes the linkage block 522 to pull down the positioning pin 523, disengaging it from the slot 526 and releasing it from locking the handle 515. The handle 515 then pulls towards the trigger 3, causing it to pull the connecting slider 512. Guided by the assembly rail 511, the connecting slider 512, in conjunction with the bracket 513, pulls... The cover plate 514 gradually moves away from the control button 4. When the connecting slider 512 moves to the maximum distance, the control button 4 is fully exposed. Then the pressing block 525 can be released, and the pressing block 525 loses its force on the linkage block 522. The linkage block 522 loses the pressure applied to the limit spring 524. The limit spring 524 rebounds without pressure and, together with the linkage block 522, pushes the positioning pin 523 to reset. The positioning pin 523 resets and inserts into another slot 526, relocking the position of the handle 515. When the handle 515 is relocked, the operator can operate the control button 4 to perform specific operations. By setting the auxiliary component 5, the buttons of the handle can be covered and protected, thereby reducing the problem of operators accidentally touching the buttons and causing improper operation, which leads to a poor gaming experience, and further improving the operation accuracy of the game controller.
