Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gaming equipment technology, specifically to a game joystick device that can automatically reset. Background Technology

[0002] A game controller is a common component used in video game consoles. Users control virtual characters in games by manipulating its buttons. Early game controllers used a D-pad for directional control and function buttons for action commands. With advancements in gaming hardware, modern consoles often use joysticks to control virtual characters. Joysticks input control signals through the movement of the joystick itself; because they can rotate 360°, their input signals are also controllable in 360°. Furthermore, joysticks offer excellent performance in terms of control precision, ease of use, and control logic.

[0003] In commonly used game joysticks, the reset mechanism relies on the elastic trigger point and the spring structure at the bottom of the joystick. However, while these two structures can reset the joystick, the elastic trigger point and the spring often weaken when the joystick is used for a long time or under heavy force. This weakens the joystick's reset capability, resulting in control lag and affecting the user's gaming experience. Therefore, it still has certain shortcomings in its use.

[0004] In conclusion, it is necessary to invent a game joystick device that can automatically reset. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address this issue, this invention provides an automatic reset game joystick device to solve the problem that when the joystick is used for a long time or is used with great force, the elastic end of the trigger and the spring often become weak, resulting in a weaker joystick reset and causing control play during use, which affects the user's gaming experience.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an automatically reset game joystick device, comprising a housing, a top cover plate fixed to the top of the outer wall of the housing, a joystick body disposed at the center of the housing, a bottom trigger sensor for triggering disposed at the bottom of the outer wall of the housing and located outside the joystick body, and a reset component for automatically resetting the joystick body disposed inside the housing.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom trigger sensor is fixed to the bottom of the outer wall of the housing, and multiple bottom trigger sensors are arranged in an array on the outside of the rocker body, with the trigger endpoints of the bottom trigger sensors all abutting against the side of the outer wall of the rocker body.

[0008] Preferably, the top cover plate has rotation grooves at the upper and lower ends of its outer wall for the rocker arm body to rotate, and a rocker arm sealing plate is provided at the top of the outer wall of the top cover plate and on the outside of the rocker arm body to seal the rotation grooves.

[0009] Preferably, the reset component includes an upper limit seat, which is fixed to the top of the inner wall of the top cover plate and located on the outside of the rocker body. A first elastic block for reset is sleeved on the outer wall of the rocker body and inside the upper limit seat. The first elastic block is arranged in a frustum shape that is narrower at the top and wider at the bottom.

[0010] Preferably, the reset component further includes a bottom limit seat, which is fixed to the bottom of the inner wall of the housing and located on the outer side of the rocker body. The inner wall of the bottom limit seat is provided with a set of elastic interlayers, which abut against the outer wall of the rocker body.

[0011] Preferably, a lower limit mechanism is provided inside the outer shell and above the bottom limit seat. The lower limit mechanism includes a lower limit block, which is disposed at the top of the outer wall of the bottom limit seat. The bottom end of the outer wall of the lower limit block is fixed at a position corresponding to the bottom end of the inner wall of the outer shell. An inner connecting block is provided on the inner wall of the bottom limit seat and outside the rocker body.

[0012] Preferably, a second elastic block is provided on the inner wall of the inner connecting block and on the outer side of the rocker body, and multiple second elastic blocks are evenly arranged in a ring array.

[0013] Preferably, each of the second elastic blocks has multiple sets of clamping springs fixed to its outer wall side end, and the ends of the multiple clamping springs away from the second elastic block abut against the corresponding positions of the inner wall side end of the inner connecting block.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] In this invention, when a person shakes the rocker arm, the first elastic block at the upper end presses against the inner wall of the upper limit seat in the corresponding direction, while the second elastic block at the bottom end presses against the moving direction, causing the top spring to contract. When the person reduces the force applied to the rocker arm, the first elastic block and the top spring work together through elastic reaction force to allow the rocker arm to return to the center position. Combined with the elastic contact on the bottom trigger sensor, the return-to-center effect of the rocker arm is enhanced, thereby improving the service life of the rocker arm, avoiding control play during use, and improving the user experience.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0022] See attached document Figures 1-4 This utility model provides an automatically resetting game joystick device, including a housing 100, a top cover plate 110 fixed to the top of the outer wall of the housing 100, a joystick body 200 disposed at the center of the housing 100, and a bottom trigger sensor 600 disposed at the bottom of the outer wall of the housing 100 and outside the joystick body 200. The bottom trigger sensor 600 is fixed to the bottom of the outer wall of the housing 100. Multiple bottom trigger sensors 600 are arranged in an array on the outside of the joystick body 200. When a person shakes the joystick body 200, the bottom of the joystick body 200 will shift, thereby pressing against the bottom trigger. The trigger endpoint of sensor 600 triggers the bottom trigger sensor 600. The trigger endpoints of the bottom trigger sensor 600 abut against the outer wall side of the joystick body 200. The upper and lower ends of the outer wall of the top cover plate 110 are provided with rotation grooves for the joystick body 200 to rotate. The top of the outer wall of the top cover plate 110 and the outer side of the joystick body 200 are provided with a joystick sealing plate 120 to seal the rotation grooves. The rotation grooves are provided so that the user can hold the joystick body 200 and move the joystick body 200 for use. The top cover plate 110 can prevent external impurities from entering the game machine through the rotation grooves.

[0023] The housing 100 contains a reset component for automatically resetting the rocker arm body 200. The reset component includes an upper limit seat 300, which is fixed to the top of the inner wall of the top cover plate 110 and located on the outer side of the rocker arm body 200. A first elastic block 310 for resetting is fitted inside the upper limit seat 300 and on the outer wall of the rocker arm body 200. The first elastic block 310 is shaped like a frustum, narrower at the top and wider at the bottom. The upper limit seat 300 primarily restricts the position of the first elastic block 310. When the user rotates the rocker arm, the side wall of the first elastic block 310 engages with the upper limit seat 300. The inner wall of the rocker arm is abutted, and the first elastic block 310 can be made of elastic rubber. Therefore, the first elastic block 310 will generate an elastic reaction force after abutting. When the person releases the rocker arm body 200, the first elastic block 310 can elastically reset, so that the rocker arm body 200 returns to the center position. The upper limit seat 300 and the first elastic block 310 need to be set so as not to affect the rotation of the rocker arm body 200, so that the person can shake the rocker arm body 200 normally for use. The size of the upper limit seat 300 and the first elastic block 310 needs to be selected according to the size of the rocker arm.

[0024] The reset component also includes a bottom limit seat 500, which is fixed to the bottom of the inner wall of the housing 100 and located on the outside of the rocker body 200. The inner wall of the bottom limit seat 500 is provided with an elastic interlayer that abuts against the outer wall of the rocker body 200. The bottom limit seat 500 is designed to protect the bottom of the rocker body 200. The bottom of the housing 100 has a clearance groove at a position corresponding to the bottom limit seat 500, and the size of the clearance groove is larger than the size of the bottom limit seat 500 to ensure that the rocker body 200 can be rocked normally. A lower limit mechanism 400 is provided inside the shell 100 and above the bottom limit seat 500. The lower limit mechanism 400 includes a lower limit block 410, which is located at the top of the outer wall of the bottom limit seat 500. The bottom end of the outer wall of the lower limit block 410 is fixed at a position corresponding to the bottom end of the inner wall of the shell 100. A groove is provided between the lower limit block 410 and the bottom limit seat 500 to allow the rocker arm body 200 to rock, preventing the rocker arm body 200 from being unable to rotate due to obstruction between the lower limit block 410 and the bottom limit seat 500. The upper end of the outer wall of the bottom limit seat 500 is connected to the lower limit mechanism. The inner wall of the structure 400 can be made of flexible rubber, which can deform to ensure the stability of the rotation of the rocker body 200. An inner connecting block 420 is provided on the inner wall of the bottom limit seat 500 and on the outer side of the rocker body 200. The inner connecting block 420 is used to support and fix the other end of the second elastic block 430. Multiple second elastic blocks 430 are evenly arranged in a ring array, and each second elastic block 430 has multiple sets of top... The tension spring 431, and the ends of the multiple tension springs 431 away from the second elastic block 430, all abut against the corresponding positions on the inner wall side of the inner connecting block 420. The multiple second elastic blocks 430 are separated from each other. When a person shakes the rocker arm, it will only move by abutting against the second elastic block 430 at the corresponding position, while the other positions remain stationary. The tension springs 431 can reset the rocker arm body 200 through elastic force. The elastic coefficient of the tension springs 431 should not be too large to avoid requiring a strong force from the person to shake the rocker arm body 200.

[0025] The usage process of this utility model is as follows: First, the user can assemble the device according to the above instructions. After completion, when the joystick body 200 is shaken, the joystick body 200 can abut against the elastic contact of the bottom trigger sensor 600 at the corresponding position, so that the bottom trigger sensor 600 receives the signal and sends it out to make the game character move. When the user shakes the joystick body 200, the first elastic block 310 at the upper end will press against the inner wall of the upper limit seat 300 in the corresponding direction, and the second elastic block 430 at the bottom end will press against the moving direction, causing the top spring 431 to contract. When the user reduces the force applied to the joystick body 200, the first elastic block 310 and the top spring 431 will cooperate through the elastic reaction force to make the joystick body 200 return to the center position. The bottom trigger sensor 600 can also make the joystick body 200 return through the elastic contact. The cooperation of the three can enhance the return effect of the joystick body 200 and reduce the occurrence of play in the joystick body 200.

[0026] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art may modify this utility model or modify it into an equivalent technical solution using the technical solutions described above. Therefore, any simple modifications or equivalent substitutions made based on the technical solutions of this utility model are within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
