This mechanical connection transmits the driver's force to the wheels through a series of components such as the steering column, steering gear, and steering tie rods, thereby achieving steering. However, this traditional method has many drawbacks, such as complex mechanical structure, large space occupation, high maintenance costs, and slow response speed in emergency situations, making it difficult to meet the demands of modern automobiles for intelligence and efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a rocker-type rotating structure to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a rocker-type rotating structure, including a handle and a base. A display screen with a turn indicator light is provided on one side of the handle, and hand grip grooves are evenly distributed on the handle outside the display screen. A connecting rod is provided at one end of the handle, and a spherical rotating body is provided at the top of the connecting rod. A spherical groove for accommodating the spherical rotating body is provided at the center of the base, and an electromagnetic Hall sensor is provided on the base on one side of the spherical groove. Arc-shaped grooves are evenly distributed on the outer side of the base. An inner hole is provided at the center of the bottom of the base, and a limiting post connected to the spherical rotating body is provided inside the inner hole. Fixing studs are evenly distributed on the bottom of the base outside the inner hole, and a helical spring is connected between each fixing stud and the limiting post.

[0005] Preferably, the connecting rod is threaded to the handle, and the outer side of the connecting rod is provided with a bottom guard plate for dust prevention and rotation angle limitation.

[0006] Preferably, a wireless transceiver module is provided on the base through mounting hole one, and a mounting hole two for mounting an electromagnetic Hall sensor is also provided on the base on one side of mounting hole one. A data processor is provided on the base, and wire holes for wiring of the wireless transceiver module, the display screen and the data processor are also provided on the base.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the fixing stud is installed to the base via an external thread, and the top of the fixing stud is provided with a through hole for fixing the helical spring.

[0009] Preferably, there is a gap between the inner hole and the limiting post, and the limiting post rotates with the spherical rotating body.

[0010] Preferably, the outer side of the spherical rotating body is uniformly provided with tooth grooves.

[0011] This utility model provides a rocker-type rotating structure, which has the following significant advantages compared with the prior art:

[0012] 1. Improved feel for the force required to operate the equipment:

[0013] This device uses three evenly distributed coil springs to achieve a tactile feedback when operating the handle. This design not only provides users with more realistic and nuanced feedback when operating the handle, but also reduces fatigue during prolonged use. Compared to traditional single-spring or springless designs, the evenly distributed three-spring structure better simulates changes in force during actual operation, enhancing the user experience.

[0014] 2. The intuitiveness of the turn indicators:

[0015] The display screen with turn indicators on the handlebars can show steering information in real time, allowing users to intuitively understand the current steering status during operation. This design not only improves the convenience and safety of operation but also reduces the possibility of misoperation. Compared with traditional mechanical indicators or no indicators, the display screen with turn indicators has significant advantages in complex operating environments.

[0016] 3. Lightweight base design:

[0017] The base of this invention features a lightweight design, reducing weight through three large arc-shaped grooves. This not only makes the entire device lighter and easier to carry and install, but also reduces production costs to some extent. The lightweight design improves portability without sacrificing structural strength and stability, achieving an optimized balance between performance and weight.

[0018] 4. Dual-angle limit protection:

[0019] The device employs a dual-angle limiting design, utilizing both a bottom guard plate and a limiting post, to effectively prevent excessive rotation of the spherical rotating body, ensuring the safety and stability of the device. The bottom guard plate not only provides dust protection but also limits the rotation angle to a certain extent, while the limiting post, connected to the spherical rotating body through its inner hole, further restricts the rotation range. This dual-limiting design offers more reliable safety assurance compared to a single limiting method.

[0020] 5. Implementation of wireless interconnection function:

[0021] With a wireless transceiver module mounted on the base, this device can wirelessly interconnect with the steering gear, enabling real-time data transmission and processing. This not only simplifies the connection method and improves the flexibility of use, but also reduces cable constraints in complex environments, improving operational efficiency and safety. The combination of the wireless transceiver module and the data processor gives the device significant advantages in terms of intelligence and information technology.

[0022] 6. Structural design optimization:

[0023] This utility model also features optimized details, such as the threaded connection between the connecting rod and the handle, the design of the bottom protective plate, and the external thread installation of the fixing studs. These designs not only improve the ease of assembly and maintenance of the device but also enhance the stability and durability of its overall structure. The mounting groove on the handle and the adhesive fixing connection to the display screen further enhance the aesthetics and practicality of the device.

[0024] 7. Environmental protection and energy-saving effects:

[0025] By optimizing the design and material selection, this invention can reduce the consumption of raw materials and the generation of waste during production and use, thus achieving certain environmental protection and energy-saving effects. The lightweight design and wireless connectivity also reduce energy consumption to some extent, aligning with the trend of green and environmentally friendly development.

[0026] In summary, this utility model has significant beneficial effects in terms of tactile feedback, intuitive steering indication, lightweight base, dual angle limit protection, and wireless interconnection function. It not only improves user experience and operational safety but also promotes the development of related technical fields, and has broad application prospects and market value.
