Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of gaming peripheral technology, specifically relating to a trigger triggering mode switching structure and controller device. Background Technology
[0002] As the gaming experience becomes more refined, mainstream games now require gamepad triggers to have two modes: short-travel and long-travel. Short-travel mode requires the trigger to respond quickly, actuate faster over its travel distance, and provide clear and distinct feedback upon successful triggering. Currently, a mechanical tactile feel is preferred. Short-travel mode is most commonly used in shooting and fighting games. Long-travel mode requires the trigger to simulate pressure sensitivity to produce a stable and linear signal output when pulled. Long-travel mode is most commonly used in racing games where players use accelerator pedals.
[0003] In existing technologies, when switching between analog pressure-sensitive and quick-trigger operation modes, the structure used for short-stroke quick-trigger is complex, requiring several intermediate moving parts or micro-switches for movement, resulting in higher costs and shorter lifespans. The complex structure also leads to loosening over time, deteriorating button feel and shortening lifespan. Utility Model Content

[0061] Example 1:
[0062] Reference Figures 1 to 4B This embodiment provides a trigger triggering mode switching structure, which includes a switching key bracket 1, a trigger assembly 2, a switching component 3, and a trigger switch 4. The trigger assembly 2 has a trigger rib 21, and the switching component 3 includes a switching key 31 and a pressing element 32.
[0063] The switch key bracket 1 is a fixed bracket relative to the trigger assembly 2 and the switch assembly 3. It can be fixed to a fixture of the controller device, such as inside the controller bottom cover, controller top cover, or PCB board. The trigger assembly 2 is rotatably mounted on the switch key bracket 1.
[0064] The switching key 31 in the switching assembly 3 is rotatable, and the pressing member 32 is movably set on the switching key 31. The rotation of the switching key 31 drives the pressing member 32 to switch between the first position and the second position. When the pressing member 32 is in the first position, the pressing member 32 is located between the trigger bone 21 and the trigger switch 4. By rotating the trigger assembly 2, the trigger bone 21 contacts the trigger switch 4 through the pressing member 32 to realize the short-stroke trigger mode. When the pressing member 32 is in the second position, the pressing member 32 is away from the trigger bone 21. By rotating the trigger assembly 2, the long-stroke trigger mode is realized. At this time, the trigger assembly 2 can rotate more towards the switching key bracket 1 and is closer to the switching key bracket 1 than in the short-stroke trigger mode.
[0065] In this embodiment, the pressing member 32 adopts a cantilever structure, and includes a pressing block 321 and an elastic arm 322. One end of the elastic arm 322 is fixed to the switching key 31, and the other end of the elastic arm 322 is fixed to the pressing block 321. When the pressing member 32 is in the first position, the pressing block 321 is located between the trigger rib 21 and the trigger switch 4. By rotating the trigger assembly 2, the trigger rib 21 contacts the trigger switch 4 through the pressing block 321, realizing the short-stroke trigger mode.
[0066] In some embodiments, the switch key 31, the pressure block 321, and the elastic arm 322 are all integrally formed.
[0067] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 The flexible arm 322 adopts an arc-shaped structure.
[0068] In some embodiments, the elastic arm 322 is an elastic arm 322 made of plastic.
[0069] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3B and Figure 4B The trigger assembly 2 rotates around a first direction A, and the switch key 31 rotates around a second direction B. The first direction A and the second direction B intersect at a certain angle, meaning that the first direction A and the second direction B are not parallel directions. The pressing member 32 is movable in a direction parallel to the second direction B.
[0070] Preferably, the first direction A is perpendicular to the second direction B.
[0071] In some embodiments, the switch key 31 is rotatably disposed inside the bottom cover 5 of the controller.
[0072] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 The switching component 3 also includes a switching reset spring 33 and a T-pin 34.
[0073] The switch key 31 is provided with a first mounting groove, and a connecting through groove 311 is provided in the first mounting groove. A switch reset spring 33 is installed in the first mounting groove. A T-pin 34 passes through the connecting through groove 311 and is threaded into the bottom cover 5 of the controller. One end of the switch reset spring 33 contacts the groove wall of the first mounting groove and the other end contacts the T-pin 34. The T-pin 34 restricts the switch reset spring 33 in the first mounting groove. That is to say, when the switch reset spring 33 is compressed, it can give a restoring force in the direction of the T-pin 34.
[0074] When it is necessary to assemble the switching component 3, the switching key 31 is fitted with the switching reset spring 33, and the T-pin 34 is pressed in. The switching component 3 is then fixed to the bottom cover 5 of the controller by the T-pin 34.
[0075] With the above design, this embodiment ensures that the rotation of the switching component 3 requires overcoming the restoring force of the switching reset spring 33, thus avoiding the problem of switching between short-stroke and long-stroke trigger modes due to accidental rotation of the switching component 3.
[0076] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3A The switch key 31 is provided with a lever 312 for driving the switch key 31 to rotate, and the lever 312 extends out of the bottom cover 5 of the controller.
[0077] The user can rotate the switch key 31 by using the lever 312 extending from the bottom cover 5 of the controller, which in turn drives the pressure block 321 on the pressing member 32 to switch between the first position and the second position.
[0078] In practice, an inner and outer clearance opening can be made on the bottom cover 5 of the controller, and the lever 312 extends out of the clearance opening. The clearance opening is preferably arc-shaped.
[0079] In some embodiments, one of the switch key 31 and the controller bottom cover 5 is provided with a positioning bone and the other is provided with a positioning groove. The positioning of the switch key 31 and the controller bottom cover 5 is achieved by aligning the positioning bone and the positioning groove.
[0080] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3B and Figure 3C The trigger assembly 2 includes a trigger button 22 and a trigger button bracket 23. The trigger button bracket 23 is connected to the trigger button 22 and is rotatably mounted on the switch button bracket 1. The trigger button bracket 23 has a trigger bone position 21.
[0081] In practice, the connection between the trigger button bracket 23 and the trigger button 22 can be a fixed connection, preferably a detachable connection, and the two can be detachably connected by screws.
[0082] In some embodiments, the trigger bone position 21 is integrally formed with the trigger button bracket 23.
[0083] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 The switch key bracket 1 has two bracket connection holes 11.
[0084] The trigger assembly 2 also includes a rotating shaft 24 and a return torsion spring 25. The rotating shaft 24 is mounted on the trigger key bracket 23, with both ends passing through the bracket connection holes 11. The rotating shaft 24 allows the trigger key bracket 23 to be rotatably mounted on the toggle key bracket 1. The return torsion spring 25 contacts both the trigger key bracket 23 and the toggle key bracket 1, respectively, and provides a restoring force to the trigger key bracket 23 towards the outside of the toggle key bracket 1. The return torsion spring 25 ensures the trigger key bracket 23 returns to its original position after rotation.
[0085] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3B and Figure 4B The trigger assembly 2 is provided with a Hall magnet 61, and the trigger switch 4 has a Hall element 62 on its side.
[0086] When the trigger assembly 2 has a trigger key bracket 23, the Hall magnet 61 is disposed on the trigger key bracket 23. In this case, the Hall magnet 61 is preferably located on the side of the trigger bone position 21. Of course, the Hall magnet 61 can also be disposed directly on the side wall of the trigger bone position 21 without affecting the position of the contact pressing member 32.
[0087] When the pressing element 32 is in the second position, the long-stroke trigger mode is achieved by rotating the trigger assembly 2, which is sensed by the Hall element 62 and the Hall magnet 61.
[0088] Of course, the long-stroke triggering mode of this utility model can also adopt other existing linear triggering modes.
[0089] In some embodiments, the trigger switch 4 is a micro switch.
[0090] This embodiment enables switching between short-stroke trigger mode and long-stroke trigger mode. The principle behind this function is as follows:
[0091] (1) Short-stroke trigger mode
[0092] Move the lever 312, which extends outside the controller bottom cover 5, to the position as follows: Figure 3A When the location is specified, switch to short-stroke trigger mode. At this time, such as... Figure 3B As shown, the pressure block 321 follows the switch key 31 around the axis of the T-pin 34, that is, the second direction B, to be located between the trigger bone position 21 and the trigger switch 4. Figure 3CAs shown, when the trigger button 22 is pulled, the trigger button bracket 23 connected to the trigger button 22 and the trigger rib 21 on it will rotate around the axial direction of the rotating shaft 24, that is, the first direction A. The trigger rib 21 will push against the pressure block 321 and be displaced. The pressure block 321 will trigger the trigger switch 4 to complete the triggering. When the trigger button 22 is released, under the action of the elastic force of the pressure block 321 itself and the return force of the return torsion spring 25, the pressure block 321 and the trigger button 22 will return to the starting position.
[0093] (2) Long-stroke trigger mode
[0094] Move the lever 312, which extends outside the controller bottom cover 5, to the position as follows: Figure 4A When the position is specified, switch to long-stroke trigger mode. At this time, such as... Figure 4B As shown, the pressure block 321 follows the switch key 31 around the axis of the T-pin 34, i.e., the second direction B, to rotate outside the travel trajectory of the trigger bone position 21. When the trigger key 22 is pulled, the trigger key bracket 23 connected to the trigger key 22 and the trigger bone position 21 on it will rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 24, i.e., the first direction A. The trigger bone position 21 rotates without obstruction and can rotate to its maximum position. The distance between the Hall magnet 61 on the trigger key bracket 23 and the Hall element 62 (electronic component) on the side of the trigger switch 4 changes. The magnetic flux of the Hall element 62 sensing the magnetic field of the Hall magnet 61 also changes. By changing the angle of the trigger key 22, pressure sensitivity can be simulated to generate a stable and linear signal output. When the trigger key 22 is released, under the action of the elastic force of the pressure block 321 itself and the return force of the return torsion spring 25, the trigger key 22 and the pressure block 321 will return to the starting position.
[0095] Example 2:
[0096] This embodiment provides a switching structure for trigger triggering mode. Compared with Embodiment 1, the switching structure for trigger triggering mode is different in the structure of the pressing member, the positional relationship and connection relationship between the pressing member and the switching key 31 are different, but the rest is the same as Embodiment 1, and will not be described again here.
[0097] In this embodiment, the pressing member 35 adopts a sliding assembly. The pressing member 35 includes a pressing rod 351, which is confined within the receiving cavity 313 of the switching key 31. The pressing rod 351 can reciprocate within the receiving cavity 313 and can extend out of the receiving cavity 313. That is, the pressing rod 351 can reciprocate within the receiving cavity 313 in a direction parallel to the second direction B, and when it moves towards the side closer to the trigger switch 4, it contacts the trigger switch 4.
[0098] When the pressing member 25 is in the first position, the pressing rod 351 is located between the trigger bone 21 and the trigger switch 4. By rotating the trigger assembly 2, the trigger bone 21 contacts the trigger switch 4 through the pressing rod 351 to realize the short-stroke trigger mode.
[0099] In Example 1, the pressing component 32, due to its cantilever structure, is prone to deformation of its elastic arm 322 during injection molding, requiring strict control during production. To improve the yield rate, this example further improves the structure of the pressing component. Specifically, this example uses a pressing component 35 with a reciprocating sliding design, which, compared to Example 1, provides more accurate switching positioning and a better feel.
[0100] In some embodiments, the reciprocating motion connection between the pressure rod 351 and the receiving cavity 313 of the switching key 31 can be achieved using existing structures. (Refer to...) Figure 8A and Figure 8D The preferred implementation is the following structure:
[0101] The cavity 313 has an open structure at both ends along the reciprocating direction of the pressure rod 351, which is parallel to the second direction B. One or more sliding through holes 314 are provided on the cavity wall of the cavity 313 along the reciprocating direction. The inner side of the sliding through hole 314 is connected to the cavity 313. One or more limiting blind holes 315 are provided on the side of the switch key 31 near the trigger switch 4. The inner side of the limiting blind hole 315 is connected to the cavity 313.
[0102] A second mounting groove 316 is provided on the side of the switch key 31 away from the trigger switch 4. The second mounting groove 316 surrounds the outside of the receiving cavity 313. A pressure rod return spring 36 is installed in the second mounting groove 316. The pressure rod return spring 36 gives the pressure rod 351 a restoring force toward the side away from the trigger switch 4.
[0103] The outer surface of the pressure rod 351 is provided with one or more limiting protrusions 352. The limiting protrusions 352 can slide through the sliding through hole 314. When the pressure rod 351 is located in the receiving cavity 313, the limiting protrusions 352 are inserted into the limiting blind hole 315. Due to the setting of the pressure rod return spring 36, in order to avoid the pressure rod 351 getting too close to the trigger switch 4.
[0104] The pressing component 35 of the above-mentioned design structure, refer to Figures 8A to 8D The assembly process before use is as follows:
[0105] like Figure 8A As shown, the pressure rod 351, fitted with the pressure rod return spring 36, is installed into the receiving cavity 313 of the switching key 31 along the sliding through hole 314 on the switching key 31. Figure 8BAs shown, the limiting protrusion 352 of the pressure rod 351 passes through the sliding through hole 314. The pressure rod 351 is rotated until the limiting protrusion 352 aligns with the limiting blind hole 315, i.e., as shown... Figure 8C Position shown. Release the pressure rod 351; under the force of the pressure rod return spring 36, the pressure rod 351 slides down into the limiting blind hole 315, as indicated. Figure 8D As shown, assembly is complete.
[0106] After the pressing component 35 is assembled, when the switching key 31 is rotatably mounted inside the controller bottom cover 5 using the switching reset spring 33 and T-pin 34, refer to Figure 8E Place the switching component 3 on the bottom cover 5 of the controller, put on the switching reset spring 33, press in the T-pin 34, and fix the switching component 3 to the bottom cover 5 of the controller through the T-pin 34.
[0107] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 8A The second mounting groove 316 has a limiting cut 317 that connects the inside and outside. A limiting block 353 is provided at the end of the pressure rod 351 away from the trigger switch 4, and the limiting block 353 extends out of the limiting cut 317.
[0108] With the above design, the distance that the pressure rod 351 moves toward the trigger switch 4 can be limited, and its maximum movement distance is no greater than the distance between the limit block 353 and the limit cut 317.
[0109] In some embodiments, the pressure rod 351 preferably adopts a T-shaped structure, with a pressure rod return spring 36 sleeved on the vertical section of the pressure rod 351, and the outer diameter of the horizontal section of the pressure rod 351 being larger than that of the pressure rod return spring 36, so that the pressure rod return spring 36 is restricted between the horizontal section of the pressure rod 351 and the second mounting groove 316.
[0110] The limiting protrusion 352 is preferably disposed on the outer surface of the vertical section of the pressure rod 351.
[0111] The limiting block 353 is preferably located on the edge side of the horizontal section of the pressure bar 351.
[0112] In some embodiments, there are two symmetrical sliding through holes 314 and two symmetrical limiting blind holes 315, and the line connecting the center points of the two sliding through holes 314 intersects the line connecting the center points of the two limiting blind holes 315.
[0113] Preferably, the line connecting the center points of the two sliding through holes 314 and the line connecting the center points of the two limiting blind holes 315 are perpendicular. That is, a cross-shaped hole is drilled outward on the cavity wall inside the receiving cavity 313, of which two opposite holes are through holes and the other two opposite holes are blind holes. When assembling the pressing part 35, the limiting protrusion 352 is aligned with the limiting blind hole 315 by rotating 90 degrees.
[0114] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 8E A positioning bone 318 is provided on the switch key 31, and a positioning groove 51 is provided on the bottom cover 5 of the controller. The positioning of the switch key 31 and the bottom cover 5 of the controller is achieved by aligning the positioning bone 318 and the positioning groove 51.
[0115] When assembling the switching component 3, the positioning function can be achieved by aligning the positioning bone 318 and the positioning groove 51.
[0116] This embodiment enables switching between short-stroke trigger mode and long-stroke trigger mode. The principle behind this function is as follows:
[0117] (1) Short-stroke trigger mode
[0118] Move the lever 312, which extends outside the controller bottom cover 5, to the position as follows: Figure 6A When the location is specified, switch to short-stroke trigger mode. At this time, such as... Figure 6B As shown, the pressure lever 351 follows the switch key 31 around the axis of the T-pin 34, that is, in the second direction B, to be located between the trigger bone position 21 and the trigger switch 4, with one end of the pressure lever 351 positioned directly above the trigger switch 4. Figure 6C As shown, when the trigger button 22 is pulled, the trigger button bracket 23 connected to the trigger button 22 and the trigger rib 21 on it will rotate along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 24, that is, the first direction A. The trigger rib 21 will press against the pressure rod 351, causing the pressure rod 351 to slide along the limit blind hole 315 and be displaced. One end of the pressure rod 351 will trigger the trigger switch 4 to complete the triggering. When the trigger button 22 is released, under the action of the reverse force of the pressure rod return spring 36, the pressure rod 351 returns to the assembly position. Under the action of the rebound force of the return torsion spring 25, the trigger button 22 and the trigger button bracket 23 return to the starting position.
[0119] (2) Long-stroke trigger mode
[0120] Move the lever 312, which extends outside the controller bottom cover 5, to the position as follows: Figure 7A When the position is specified, switch to long-stroke trigger mode. At this time, such as... Figure 7BAs shown, the lever 351 follows the switch key 31 around the axis of the T-pin 34, i.e., the second direction B, to rotate outside the travel trajectory of the trigger rib 21. When the trigger key 22 is pulled, the trigger key bracket 23 connected to the trigger key 22 and the trigger rib 21 on it will rotate along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 24, i.e., the first direction A. The trigger rib 21 rotates without obstruction and can rotate to its maximum position. The distance between the Hall magnet 61 on the trigger key bracket 23 and the Hall element 62 (electronic component) on the side of the trigger switch 4 changes. The magnetic flux of the Hall element 62 sensing the magnetic field of the Hall magnet 61 also changes. By changing the angle of the trigger key 22, a stable and linear signal output can be generated by simulating pressure sensitivity. When the trigger key 22 is released, the lever 351 returns to the assembled position under the reverse force of the lever return spring 36, and the trigger key 22 and the trigger key bracket 23 return to the starting position under the return force of the return torsion spring 25.
