Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of campervan technology, and more particularly to a control device and a campervan. Background Technology

[0002] Campervans are gaining increasing attention due to their portability, high load-bearing capacity, large capacity, and adaptability to various terrains. Campervans are typically equipped with foldable handles or levers for easy towing or pushing. Some campervans also feature electric drive mechanisms with multiple buttons and paddle shifters on the levers for control. However, controlling the campervan's direction, speed, and braking requires operating multiple buttons, making the operation complex and requiring both hands, which is inconvenient for users. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application provides a control device and a campervan, which can position the control device in a suitable control posture relative to the target device, thereby improving the convenience of controlling the target device.

[0004] On one hand, this application provides a control device, which includes: a connecting component, a control component, and a limiting component; wherein, the connecting component is used to connect to a target device; the control component is rotatably connected to the connecting component; the limiting component is disposed on one of the connecting component and the control component, and the other of the connecting component and the control component has a limiting structure corresponding to the limiting component, the limiting component and the limiting structure cooperate to limit the swing position of the control component relative to the connecting component; when the control component is in different swing positions relative to the connecting component, different controls can be performed on the target device.

[0005] The control device provided in this application, by rotatably connecting the control component and the connecting component, allows the control component to swing relative to the connecting component to different angles. Furthermore, matching limiting components and limiting structures are provided between the connecting component and the control component, allowing the control component to be restricted to different swing angles relative to the connecting component through the cooperation of the limiting components and limiting structures. Thus, when the control device provided in this application is applied to a target device, if driving the target device is required, the control component can be positioned vertically relative to the target device, facilitating control; if towing the target device is required, the control component can be tilted relative to the target device (e.g., tilted forward of the target device), making it easier for the user to apply dragging force and reducing the vertical force between the connecting component and the target device. This facilitates placing the control device in a suitable control posture relative to the target device, improving the convenience of controlling the target device.

[0006] In one possible implementation of this application, a limiting component is disposed on a connecting component, a limiting structure is disposed on a control component, and the limiting component is movable relative to the connecting component to extend into or exit from the limiting structure.

[0007] In one possible implementation of this application, the limiting component includes a locking member and an elastic member. The locking member is movably disposed on the connecting component, and the elastic member is disposed between the locking member and the connecting component. The elastic member is used to apply a force toward the limiting structure to the locking member.

[0008] In one possible implementation of this application, the limiting component further includes an unlocking member, which is rotatably disposed on the connecting component and connected to the locking member. During the rotation of the unlocking member relative to the connecting component, the unlocking member can drive the locking member to move away from the limiting structure.

[0009] In one possible implementation of this application, the limiting component further includes a connecting rod, one end of which is connected to an unlocking member and the other end of which is connected to a locking member; and / or, the connecting component has a first receiving cavity that matches the locking member, the locking member being disposed within the first receiving cavity and the unlocking member being located outside the first receiving cavity.

[0010] In one possible implementation of this application, one of the locking member and the limiting structure includes a limiting protrusion, and the other of the locking member and the limiting structure includes a limiting groove that matches the limiting protrusion. There are at least two limiting protrusions or limiting grooves, and the at least two limiting protrusions or limiting grooves are distributed along the swing direction of the control component relative to the connecting component.

[0011] In one possible implementation of this application, along the swing direction, the width of the first limiting groove is greater than the width of the first limiting protrusion; the first limiting groove is one of at least two limiting grooves that restricts the control component relative to the connecting component to the second swing position, and the first limiting protrusion is one of at least two limiting protrusions that restricts the control component relative to the connecting component to the second swing position, the second swing position being the position where the control component is in a forward tilting posture relative to the target device.

[0012] In one possible implementation of this application, the control device further includes a detection component disposed on the connection component and / or the control component. The detection component is configured to generate a detection signal in response to the swing of the control component relative to the connection component. The detection signal is used to control the motion mode of the target device.

[0013] In one possible implementation of this application, the control component has a second receiving cavity that matches the detection component, the detection component being disposed in the second receiving cavity and corresponding to the connection component.

[0014] In one possible implementation of this application, the connecting assembly includes a clamping member and a fastener. The clamping member has a clamping cavity that matches a fixed post on the target device. The fastener is disposed on the clamping member circumferentially, and the radial dimension of the clamping cavity can be changed by adjusting the fastener. The clamping member also has a pivot portion, and the control assembly is rotatably connected to the clamping member through the pivot portion.

[0015] In one possible implementation of this application, the control component includes a limiting seat and a control member. The limiting seat is rotatably connected to the connecting component, and a limiting structure is disposed on the limiting seat. The control device also includes a reset component, which is connected to the limiting seat. The control member is rotatably connected to the limiting seat and also connected to the reset component. During the process of the control member driving the reset component to swing relative to the limiting seat, the reset component generates a restoring force. The restoring force can keep the control member in the initial position relative to the limiting seat, or can make the control member have a tendency to move towards the initial position. The initial position is the position of the control member before it swings relative to the limiting seat.

[0016] In one possible implementation of this application, the reset assembly includes an actuating member and a reset member. The actuating member is rotatably disposed on a limiting seat, and one end of the actuating member extends to connect with a control member. The reset member is connected to the actuating member and is used to apply a restoring force to the actuating member so that the actuating member applies a force to the control member to keep the control member in the initial position, or to cause the actuating member to drive the control member to move towards the initial position.

[0017] In one possible implementation of this application, the reset assembly includes two toggle members, a driving part is provided on the control member, and a limiting part is provided on the limiting seat. The rotation axes of the two toggle members are both located between the driving part and the limiting part. Along the swing direction of the control member relative to the connecting assembly, the first ends of each of the two toggle members are located on both sides of the driving part, and the second ends of each of the two toggle members are located on both sides of the limiting part. The first end and the second end of the same toggle member are located on different sides of the driving part and the limiting part, respectively. The reset member is connected to the two toggle members respectively, and the restoring force makes both toggle members tend to move closer to the limiting part.

[0018] In one possible implementation of this application, the control component further includes an adapter, which is rotatably connected to the connecting component, and a driving part extends from the adapter. The control component is detachably disposed on the adapter.

[0019] In one possible implementation of this application, the control device further includes a control component, a portion of which is disposed on the control member and another portion of which is disposed on the limit seat. The control component is configured to generate a control signal in response to the swing angle of the control member relative to the limit seat. The control signal is used to control at least one of the travel direction and travel speed of the target device.

[0020] In one possible implementation of this application, the control member can swing relative to the limiting seat in a first direction or a second direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction are two opposite directions; wherein, during the swing of the control member in the first direction, the control component can generate a first control signal for controlling the target device to move in the first direction; during the swing of the control member in the second direction, the control component can generate a second control signal for controlling the target device to move in the second direction.

[0021] In one possible implementation of this application, the control component is configured such that the strength of the generated control signal is positively or negatively correlated with the magnitude of the swing angle.

[0022] In one possible implementation of this application, the control component includes a Hall element and a magnetic element. The Hall element is disposed on one of the control element and the limit seat, and the magnetic element is disposed on the other of the control element and the limit seat at a position corresponding to the Hall element.

[0023] On the other hand, this application provides a campervan, which includes: a vehicle body, a running gear, and a control device provided in any of the above embodiments; wherein the running gear is disposed on the vehicle body; and the connecting component is disposed on the vehicle body.

[0024] The campervan provided in this application includes any of the control devices mentioned above, which facilitates the control device to be in a suitable control posture relative to the vehicle body, thereby improving the convenience of controlling the campervan. Attached Figure Description

[0048] This application provides a control device that can be used in any low-speed vehicle, transport vehicle, etc. For example, it can be used in electric scooters, electric children's toy cars, electric camping vehicles, electric flatbed trucks, etc. This application does not limit the specific application scenarios of the control device.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of the campervan provided in this application. Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the control device provided in this application Figure 1 , Figure 3 Provided for this application Figure 2 Enlarged structural diagram of section A. Figure 4 Provided for this application Figure 2 A partial enlarged cross-sectional view of section A.

[0050] The control device 1 provided in this application includes: a connecting component 11, a control component 12, and a limiting component 13; wherein, the connecting component 11 is used to connect to a target device; the control component 12 is rotatably connected to the connecting component 11; the limiting component 13 is disposed on one of the connecting component 11 and the control component 12, and the other of the connecting component 11 and the control component 12 has a limiting structure 1211 corresponding to the limiting component 13, the limiting component 13 cooperates with the limiting structure 1211 to limit the swing position of the control component 12 relative to the connecting component 11; when the control component 12 is in different swing positions relative to the connecting component 11, different controls can be performed on the target device.

[0051] In this embodiment, the connecting component 11 can be connected to the target device to mount the control device 1 onto the target device. The connecting component 11 can also provide a mounting base for other components in the control device 1, allowing other components to be mounted on or assembled using the connecting component 11. For example, the connecting component 11 can be provided with structures that facilitate connection to the target device, such as threaded holes or through holes, to fix the connecting component 11 to the target device using bolts or bolt sets, thus mounting the control device 1 onto the target device.

[0052] In this embodiment, the user can operate the control component 12 to perform operations such as dragging, pushing, or driving the target device. The control component 12 can be rotatably connected to the connecting component 11 so that the control component 12 can swing relative to the connecting component 11. For example, one end of the control component 12 can be rotatably connected to the connecting component 11 via a pin or shaft.

[0053] In this embodiment of the application, during the swinging process of the control component 12 relative to the connecting component 11, it is necessary to limit the swing angle of the control component 12 relative to the connecting component 11 so that the control component 12 is in different control postures relative to the target device, so as to perform different operations on the target device.

[0054] For example, a matching limiting component 13 and a limiting structure 1211 can be provided between the connecting component 11 and the control component 12, and the limiting component 13 can be configured to generate motion. For instance, the limiting component 13 can be provided on the connecting component 11, and the limiting structure 1211 can be provided on the control component 12. Alternatively, the limiting component 13 can be provided on the control component 12, and the limiting structure 1211 can be provided on the connecting component 11. In this way, when the control component 12 swings relative to the connecting component 11 to the desired swing position, the limiting component 13 and the limiting structure 1211 can cooperate to restrict the control component 12 relative to the connecting component 11 to that swing position, preventing the control component 12 from swinging arbitrarily relative to the connecting component 11.

[0055] The control device 1 provided in this application embodiment allows the control component 12 to swing relative to the connecting component 11 to different angles by rotating the control component 12 to the connecting component 11. Furthermore, a matching limiting component 13 and a limiting structure 1211 are provided between the connecting component 11 and the control component 12. Through the cooperation of the limiting component 13 and the limiting structure 1211, the control component 12 can be restricted to different swing angles relative to the connecting component 11. Thus, when the control device 1 provided in this application embodiment is applied to a target device, if driving the target device is required, the control component 12 can be positioned vertically relative to the target device, facilitating control of the control component 12. If dragging the target device is required, the control component 12 can be tilted relative to the target device (e.g., tilted forward of the target device), making it easier for the user to apply dragging force to the control component 12. This also reduces the vertical force between the connecting component 11 and the target device, thereby facilitating the control device 1 to be in a suitable control posture relative to the target device and improving the convenience of controlling the target device.

[0056] In some possible embodiments of this application, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the limiting component 13 is disposed on the connecting component 11, and the limiting structure 1211 is disposed on the control component 12. The limiting component 13 can move relative to the connecting component 11 to extend into the limiting structure 1211 or exit from the limiting structure 1211.

[0057] In this embodiment, the limiting component 13 can be disposed on the connecting component 11, while the limiting structure 1211 can be disposed on the control component 12. For example, the limiting component 13 can be disposed on the connecting component 11 at the end away from the control component 12, and the limiting structure 1211 can be disposed on the control component 12 at a position corresponding to the limiting component 13.

[0058] For example, at least a portion of the limiting component 13 can be configured to move relative to the connecting component 11. For instance, a portion of the limiting component 13 can be slidably connected to the connecting component 11. This allows this portion of the limiting component 13 to move toward or away from the limiting structure 1211, thereby allowing a portion of the limiting component 13 to move into the limiting structure 1211 to limit the swing of the control component 12; or, a portion of the limiting component 13 can be withdrawn from the limiting structure 1211 and separated from the limiting structure 1211 to unlock the control component 12 and the connecting component 11.

[0059] In the above embodiments, since the limiting component 13 is disposed on the connecting component 11 and the limiting structure 1211 is disposed on the control component 12, the larger volume of the connecting component 11 can provide a suitable installation position for the limiting component 13, and the other parts of the limiting component 13 (the parts of the limiting component 13 that do not contact the limiting structure 1211) can be located on the connecting component 11 in an area away from the control component 12, thereby reducing the risk of interference between the other parts of the limiting component 13 and the control component 12.

[0060] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 , Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the control device provided in this application in its first control posture. Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the control device provided in this application in the second control posture Figure 1 , Figure 7 Schematic diagram of the control device provided in this application in the second control posture Figure 2 The limiting component 13 includes a locking member 131 and an elastic member 132. The locking member 131 is movably disposed on the connecting component 11, and the elastic member 132 is disposed between the locking member 131 and the connecting component 11. The elastic member 132 is used to apply a force toward the limiting structure 1211 to the locking member 131.

[0061] In this embodiment, the limiting component 13 can be configured to include a locking member 131 and an elastic member 132, so that the swing of the control component 12 relative to the connecting component 11 can be limited by the cooperation of the locking member 131 and the limiting structure 1211, while the elastic member 132 keeps the locking member 131 in the position of locking the control component 12.

[0062] For example, the locking member 131 can be configured as a block, plate, rod, or other structure, and can be slidably connected to the connecting assembly 11. For instance, a guide groove matching the locking member 131 can be provided on the connecting assembly 11. The locking member 131 is inserted into the guide groove, so that the locking member 131 can slide relative to the connecting assembly 11 within the guide groove, allowing the locking member 131 to move closer to or away from the limiting structure 1211.

[0063] In another example, the elastic element 132 can be a compression spring, a tension spring, a leaf spring, rubber, etc. One end of the elastic element 132 can be connected to the locking element 131, and the other end of the elastic element 132 can be connected to the connecting assembly 11, so that the elastic element 132 applies a force to the locking element 131 toward the limiting structure 1211.

[0064] In the above embodiments, since the locking member 131 is movably disposed on the connecting assembly 11, the locking member 131 can move relative to the limiting structure 1211, thereby enabling the locking member 131 to engage or disengage from the limiting structure 1211. Furthermore, an elastic member 132 is provided between the locking member 131 and the connecting assembly 11. The elastic member 132 can stably maintain the locking member 131 in the position engaged with the limiting structure 1211, or give the locking member 131 a tendency to move towards the limiting structure 1211, thereby improving the reliability of the engagement between the locking member 131 and the limiting structure 1211, and consequently improving the reliability of the control device 1.

[0065] In some possible embodiments of this application, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the limiting component 13 also includes an unlocking component 133, which is rotatably disposed on the connecting component 11 and connected to the locking component 131. During the process of the unlocking component 133 rotating relative to the connecting component 11, the unlocking component 133 can drive the locking component 131 to move away from the limiting structure 1211.

[0066] In this embodiment of the application, an unlocking member 133 can be provided for the locking member 131 so that the locking member 131 can move relative to the limiting structure 1211 and separate from the limiting structure 1211 through the unlocking member 133.

[0067] For example, the unlocking member 133 can be configured as a plate-like or elongated strip structure. One end of the unlocking member 133 can be rotatably connected to the connecting assembly 11. For instance, a shaft hole can be provided at one end of the unlocking member 133, and a threaded hole can be provided on the connecting assembly 11. A bolt that matches both the shaft hole and the threaded hole can be used, with the bolt acting as a pivot to rotatably mount the unlocking member 133 onto the connecting assembly 11. In this case, the unlocking member 133 extends past the end of the locking member 131 away from the limiting structure 1211, allowing the locking member 131 and the unlocking member 133 to be movably connected. For example, a rope can be used, with one end fixed to the locking member 131 and the other end fixed to the middle portion of the unlocking member 133.

[0068] Thus, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, when the operating component is in the first operating posture relative to the connecting component 11, pressing or stepping on the free end of the unlocking member 133 can cause the unlocking member 133 to move the locking member 131 away from the limiting structure 1211, thus separating it from the limiting structure 1211. At this time, the operating component can rotate relative to the connecting component 11 in the first direction Y. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, by applying a force in the first direction Y to the control component 12, the control component 12 can tilt relative to the connecting component 11 in the first direction Y until the locking member 131 corresponds to the limiting structure 1211 again, which can release the unlocking member 133. The locking member 131 then moves towards the limiting structure 1211 under the action of the elastic member 132 until the locking member 131 and the limiting structure 1211 are combined, so that the control component is in the second control posture relative to the connecting component 11, and the control component is restricted to the second control posture by the locking member 131.

[0069] In the above embodiments, since the locking member 131 is provided with an unlocking member 133 and the unlocking member 133 is rotatably connected to the connecting component 11, when it is necessary to release the restriction of the locking member 131 on the control component 12, the locking member 131 can be moved relative to the limiting structure 1211 by applying a force to the unlocking member 133, thereby facilitating the unlocking operation of the locking member 131.

[0070] In some possible embodiments of this application, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the limiting assembly 13 also includes a connecting rod 134, one end of which is connected to the unlocking member 133, and the other end of which is connected to the locking member 131; and / or, the connecting assembly 11 has a first receiving cavity 1111 that matches the locking member 131, the locking member 131 is disposed in the first receiving cavity 1111, and the unlocking member 133 is located outside the first receiving cavity 1111.

[0071] In this embodiment, the locking member 131 and the unlocking member 133 can be connected by a connecting rod 134. For example, the connecting rod 134 can be a bolt. A thread matching the bolt can be provided on the locking member 131, and a through hole matching the bolt can be provided on the unlocking member 133. The diameter of the through hole is larger than the diameter of the bolt's threaded portion and smaller than the diameter of the bolt's head. The bolt can be passed through the through hole on the unlocking member 133 and connected to the threaded hole on the locking member 131 to fix the bolt, which serves as the connecting rod 134, to the locking member 131.

[0072] For example, a first receiving cavity 1111 matching the locking member 131 can be provided on the connecting component 11. The first receiving cavity 1111 can be a structure with openings at both ends. The locking member 131 can be slidably disposed in the first receiving cavity 1111, and the connecting rod 134 can pass through the end of the first receiving cavity 1111 away from the limiting structure 1211, so that the unlocking member 133 is located outside the first receiving cavity 1111 on the side away from the limiting structure 1211.

[0073] In the above embodiments, since the locking member 131 and the unlocking member 133 are connected by the connecting rod 134, the relative position between the locking member 131 and the unlocking member 133 can be highly flexible, making it easy to design the relative position of the unlocking member 133 and the locking member 131. Furthermore, by placing the locking member 131 within the first receiving cavity 1111 on the connecting assembly 11, the movement path of the locking member 131 can be restricted by the portion of the first receiving cavity 1111 enclosed by the connecting assembly 11. This allows the locking member 131 to move accurately into the limiting structure 1211, and the connecting assembly 11 also provides protection for the locking member 131.

[0074] In some possible embodiments of this application, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, one of the locking member 131 and the limiting structure 1211 includes a limiting protrusion 1311, and the other of the locking member 131 and the limiting structure 1211 includes a limiting groove that matches the limiting protrusion 1311. There are at least two limiting protrusions 1311 or limiting grooves, and the at least two limiting protrusions 1311 or limiting grooves are distributed along the swing direction S of the control assembly 12 relative to the connecting assembly 11.

[0075] In this embodiment, the swing angle of the control component 12 relative to the connecting component 11 can be limited by protrusions and grooves.

[0076] For example, a limiting protrusion 1311 can be provided at the end of the locking member 131 near the control component 12. Correspondingly, a limiting groove matching the limiting protrusion 1311 can be provided on the control component 12. Along the swing direction S of the control component 12 relative to the connecting component 11, two or three equal numbers of limiting grooves can be provided on the control component 12. Multiple limiting grooves can be distributed on the same virtual arc, and the included angle between two adjacent limiting grooves can be less than or equal to 60°. For example, the included angle between two adjacent limiting grooves can be set to 15°, 30°, 45°, or 60°. This allows the control component 12 to swing relative to the connecting component 11 by an angle of 15°, 30°, 45°, or 60° each time, which also allows the control component 12 to tilt relative to the vertical direction by 15°, 30°, 45°, or 60°, thereby making the control component 12 suitable for users of different heights.

[0077] Alternatively, two or three equal number of limiting protrusions 1311 can be provided on the locking member 131, and a limiting groove can be provided on the control component 12. The included angle between two adjacent limiting protrusions 1311 on the locking member 131 can be set to 15°, 30°, 45° or 60°, etc.

[0078] In another example, a limiting groove can be provided at one end of the locking member 131 near the control component 12. Correspondingly, a limiting protrusion 1311 matching the limiting groove can be provided on the control component 12. Along the swing direction S of the control component 12 relative to the connecting component 11, two or three equal numbers of limiting grooves can be provided on the locking member 131. Multiple limiting grooves can be distributed on the same virtual arc, and the included angle between two adjacent limiting grooves can be less than or equal to 60°. For example, the included angle between two adjacent limiting grooves can be set to 15°, 30°, 45°, or 60°, etc.

[0079] Alternatively, two or three equal number of limiting grooves can be provided on the locking member 131, and a limiting protrusion 1311 can be provided on the control component 12. The included angle between two adjacent limiting grooves on the locking member 131 can be set to 15°, 30°, 45° or 60°, etc.

[0080] In the above embodiments, since the locking member 131 and the limiting structure 1211 include matching limiting protrusions 1311 and limiting grooves, the movement of the control component 12 relative to the connecting component 11 can be restricted or released through the cooperation of the limiting protrusions 1311 and the limiting grooves. Moreover, the structure of the limiting protrusions 1311 and the limiting grooves is simple and reliable, which is conducive to improving the reliability of the limiting component 13.

[0081] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 8 , Figure 8This is a schematic diagram of the detection component in the control device provided in this application. Along the swing direction S, the width of the first limiting groove is greater than the width of the first limiting protrusion; the first limiting groove is one of at least two limiting grooves that restricts the control component 12 relative to the connecting component 11 to the second swing position 5, and the first limiting protrusion is one of at least two limiting protrusions 1311 that restricts the control component 12 relative to the connecting component 11 to the second swing position 5, where the second swing position 5 is the position where the control component 12 is in a forward tilting posture relative to the target device.

[0082] In the embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the control component 12 can be maintained in a first swing position 4 relative to the connecting component 11 (target device), that is, the control component 12 and the target device (such as the vehicle body 2) maintain a perpendicular relative posture. The control component 12 can also be maintained in a second swing position 5 relative to the connecting component 11, that is, the control component 12 is in a forward tilting posture relative to the vehicle body 2.

[0083] For example, such as Figure 8 As shown, two limiting grooves can be provided on the control component 12. These two limiting grooves are distributed on the same virtual arc along the swing direction S. Correspondingly, a limiting protrusion 1311 can be provided on the locking member 131. Specifically, along the swing direction S of the control component 12 relative to the connecting component 11, the width of the first limiting groove restricting the control component 12 to the second swing position 5 relative to the connecting component 11 can be set to be greater than the width of the limiting protrusion 1311. The width of the second limiting groove restricting the control component 12 to the first swing position 4 relative to the connecting component 11 can be set to be equal to or close to the width of the limiting protrusion 1311.

[0084] In another example, a limiting groove can be provided on the control component 12, and correspondingly, two limiting protrusions 1311 can be provided on the locking member 131. These two limiting protrusions 1311 are distributed on the same virtual arc along the swing direction S. Specifically, along the swing direction S of the control component 12 relative to the connecting component 11, the width of the first limiting protrusion restricting the control component 12 to the second swing position 5 relative to the connecting component 11 can be set to be less than the width of the limiting groove, and the width of the second limiting protrusion 1311 restricting the control component 12 to the first swing position 4 relative to the connecting component 11 can be set to be equal to or close to the width of the limiting groove.

[0085] Thus, as Figure 1As shown, when the control component 12 is in the first swing position 4 relative to the connecting component 11, the width of the limiting groove and the width of the limiting protrusion 1311 are approximately the same. The limiting protrusion 1311 engages in the limiting groove, thereby completely restricting the control component 12 relative to the target device in the first vertical control posture. At this time, the control component 12 can no longer move relative to the target device along the swing direction S. When the control component 12 is in the second swing position 5 relative to the connecting component 11, the width of the first limiting groove is greater than the width of the limiting protrusion 1311, or the width of the limiting groove is greater than the width of the first limiting protrusion. When the first limiting protrusion engages in the limiting groove, or when the limiting protrusion 1311 engages in the first limiting groove, the limiting protrusion 1311 and the limiting groove can still generate relative movement along the swing direction S, thereby allowing the control component 12 to still move relative to the target device along the swing direction S in the second swing position 5.

[0086] In the above embodiment, since the width of the first limiting groove is greater than the width of the first limiting protrusion along the swing direction S, when the control component 12 is in the second swing position 5 relative to the connecting component 11, the control component 12 can also rotate relative to the target device within a certain angle range along the swing direction S. This allows the tilt direction of the control component 12 to be on the same straight line as the direction of the user's force application, thereby making the control device 1 suitable for users of different heights and improving the comfort of the user when dragging the target device through the control device 1.

[0087] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 9 , Figure 9 A bottom-view structural diagram of the control device provided in this application in its first control posture. (See diagram below.) Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the control device 1 also includes a detection component 14, which is disposed on the connection component 11 and / or the control component 12. The detection component 14 is configured to generate a detection signal in response to the swing of the control component 12 relative to the connection component 11. The detection signal is used to control the motion mode of the target device.

[0088] In this embodiment of the application, a detection component 14 can be provided in the control device 1 to detect and sense the position of the control component 12 relative to the connection component 11.

[0089] For example, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, when the detection component 14 comprises a complete unit, the detection component 14 can be mounted on the connecting component 11 and correspond to the control component 12. Alternatively, the detection component 14 can be mounted on the control component 12 and correspond to the connecting component 11. For example, the detection component 14 can be a contact-type detection element, such as a contact switch, pressure sensor, etc.

[0090] Thus, as Figure 5 As shown, when the control component 12 is in a first control posture relative to the connecting component 11, the portion of the connecting component 11 corresponding to the detection component 14 is positioned close to or in contact with the detection component 14. The connecting component 11 can apply pressure to a contact switch or pressure sensor to trigger the contact switch or pressure sensor, thereby causing the contact switch or pressure sensor to generate a detection signal. Figure 6 As shown, when the control component 12 is in the second control posture relative to the connecting component 11, the portion of the connecting component 11 corresponding to the detection component 14 is positioned away from the detection component 14. This eliminates the pressure applied by the connecting component 11 to the contact switch or pressure sensor, thus triggering the contact switch or pressure sensor and causing it to generate a detection signal. Therefore, when the control component 12 switches between the first and second control postures, it can trigger the detection component 14, which in turn generates a corresponding detection signal.

[0091] Another example, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, when the detection component 14 comprises two independent parts, that is, when the detection component 14 includes a signal generator 141 and a trigger 142, the signal generator 141 can be disposed on the connection component 11, and the trigger 142 can be disposed on the control component 12. Alternatively, the signal generator 141 can be disposed on the connection component 11 of the control component 12, and the trigger 142 can be disposed on the connection component 11. For example, the signal generator 141 can be a laser generator, an ultrasonic generator, a Hall element, etc., and correspondingly, the trigger 142 can be a laser reflector, an ultrasonic reflector, a magnet, etc.

[0092] Thus, as Figure 8 As shown, when the control component 12 is in a second control posture relative to the connecting component 11, the signal generator 141 can be separated from the trigger 142, thereby enabling the signal generator 141 to generate a detection signal. Figure 9As shown, when the control component 12 is in the first control posture relative to the connection component 11, the trigger 142 can be moved to the transmission path of the light wave or sound wave generated by the signal generator 141, thereby enabling the signal generator 141 to generate a detection signal. At this time, the trigger 142 may not be in contact with the signal generator.

[0093] In another example, when the target device uses the control device 1 provided in the embodiments of this application, the detection component 14 can be electrically connected to the controller of the target device (the controller is electrically connected to the walking mechanism 3 of the target device). Thus, when the detection component 14 generates a detection signal, the detection signal can be uploaded to the controller. The controller can determine the control posture of the control component 12 based on the received detection signal, and can then issue control commands corresponding to the control posture to the walking mechanism 3. For example, when the control component 12 is in a vertical first control posture, the user can ride the target device, meaning the controller of the target device can control the walking mechanism 3 to move at a relatively fast speed. When the control component 12 is in a tilted second control posture, the user can drag the target device, meaning the controller of the target device can control the walking mechanism 3 to move at a suitable following speed.

[0094] In the above embodiments, since a detection component 14 is provided on the connection component 11 and / or the control component 12, the position of the control component 12 relative to the connection component 11 can be detected by the detection component 14. In other words, the way the user uses the target device can be determined based on the detection signal generated by the detection component 14, and the target device can be controlled to move in the corresponding motion mode by the detection signal.

[0095] In some possible embodiments of this application, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the control component 12 has a second receiving cavity 1212 that matches the detection component 14. The detection component 14 is disposed in the second receiving cavity 1212 and corresponds to the connection component 11.

[0096] In this embodiment, a second receiving cavity 1212 matching the detection component 14 can be provided on the control component 12. For example, a through hole matching the detection component 14 can be provided on the control component 12, extending from the control component 12 to a position corresponding to the connecting component 11. This through hole can serve as the second receiving cavity 1212 for housing the detection component 14. Thus, after the detection component 14 is fixed in the second receiving cavity 1212 by means of bonding, snap-fitting, or other methods, the detection component 14 can be positioned in the position corresponding to the connecting component 11.

[0097] In the above embodiments, since the control component 12 is provided with a second receiving cavity 1212 that matches the detection component 14, it is convenient to place the detection component 14 on the control component 12 through the second receiving cavity 1212, and the cavity wall of the second receiving cavity 1212 can provide good protection for the detection component 14.

[0098] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 10 and Figure 11 , Figure 10 This is a top view of the clamping component in the control device provided in this application. Figure 11 Provided for this application Figure 10 A cross-sectional view of the clamping member along the CC direction. The connecting assembly 11 includes a clamping member 111 and a fastener 112. The clamping member 111 has a clamping cavity 1114 that matches the fixing post on the target device. The fastener 112 is disposed on the clamping member 111 circumferentially. The radial dimension of the clamping cavity 1114 can be changed by adjusting the fastener 112. The clamping member 111 also has a rotating shaft 1113. The control assembly 12 is rotatably connected to the clamping member 111 through the rotating shaft 1113.

[0099] In this embodiment, the connecting component 11 can be configured as a clamping member 111 and a fastener 112. The clamping member 111 can be configured as a structure including a fixing part 1112 and a rotating shaft part 1113. The clamping member 111 is connected to the fixing post of the target device through the fixing part 1112, and the control component 12 is rotatably connected to the clamping member 111 through the rotating shaft part 1113.

[0100] For example, the clamping member 111 can be configured as an annular structure with an opening, so that the clamping member 111 has a clamping notch 1115, which penetrates the wall of the clamping member 111 along the axial direction of the clamping member 111, and the space enclosed by the clamping member 111 can be used as a clamping cavity 1114. One end of the clamping member 111 can be used as a fixing part 1112, and the other end of the clamping member 111 can be used as a rotating shaft part 1113. The shape of the clamping cavity 1114 of the fixing part 1112 on the clamping member 111 can be set according to the shape of the fixing post on the target device, and a clearance fit is formed between the clamping cavity 1114 of the fixing part 1112 and the fixing post.

[0101] In another example, fixing lugs 1117 can be provided on both sides of the clamping notch 1115 of the fixing part 1112 of the clamping member 111. Countersunk holes and threaded holes matching the bolts used as fasteners 112 can be provided on the two fixing lugs 1117 respectively. In this way, by turning the bolts, the size of the clamping notch 1115 of the clamping member 111 can be adjusted, and the radial dimension of the clamping cavity 1114 can also be adjusted, so that the clamping member 111 can clamp and fix the fixing post.

[0102] In another example, the shape of the rotating shaft portion 1113 can be configured to match the structure of the control component 12. For example, a first shaft hole can be provided on the rotating shaft portion 1113, and a second shaft hole corresponding to the first shaft hole can be provided on the control component 12. The control component 12 and the rotating shaft portion 1113 of the clamping member 111 can be rotatably connected by a rotating shaft that is compatible with both the first and second shaft holes.

[0103] In another example, the fixing part 1112 and the rotating shaft part 1113 can be manufactured as a single piece. For example, the clamping member 111, including the fixing part 1112 and the rotating shaft part 1113, can be formed by casting. Alternatively, the fixing part 1112 and the rotating shaft part 1113 of the clamping member 111 can be manufactured separately, and then welded together into a single integral structure by welding or other methods.

[0104] In another example, a limiting ring 1116 for mounting the locking member 131 can be provided on the outer wall of the fixing part 1112, so that the limiting ring 1116 and the fixing part 1112 enclose and form a first receiving cavity 1111.

[0105] In the above embodiments, since the clamping member 111 has a clamping cavity 1114, the radial dimension of the clamping cavity 1114 can be adjusted by the fastener 112, thereby facilitating the clamping member 111 to be clamped and fixed on the fixing post. Furthermore, the clamping member 111 is provided with a rotating shaft 1113 that matches the control component 12, allowing the control component 12 and the clamping member 111 to be rotatably connected via the rotating shaft 1113. Thus, the portion of the clamping member 111 that connects to the target device, and the rotating shaft 1113 that connects the clamping member 111 to the control component 12, are integrated into a single structure, which helps improve the structural stability of the clamping member 111. Moreover, other components of the control device 1 can be mounted on the clamping member 111, facilitating the assembly and disassembly of the control device 1 onto the target device.

[0106] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 12 and Figure 13 , Figure 12 Schematic diagram of the control device provided in this application Figure 2 , Figure 13 Provided for this application Figure 12 Enlarged structural diagram of part B. The control component 12 includes a limiting seat 121 and a control member 122. The limiting seat 121 is rotatably connected to the connecting component 11, and the limiting structure 1211 is disposed on the limiting seat 121. The control device 1 also includes a reset component 15, which is connected to the limiting seat 121. The control member 122 is rotatably connected to the limiting seat 121 and also connected to the reset component 15. During the process of the control member 122 driving the reset component 15 to swing relative to the limiting seat 121, the reset component 15 generates a restoring force. The restoring force can keep the control member 122 in the initial position relative to the limiting seat 121, or can make the control member 122 have a tendency to move towards the initial position. The initial position is the position of the control member 122 before it swings relative to the limiting seat 121.

[0107] In this embodiment, the control component 12 can be configured to include a control member 122 and a limiting seat 121. For example, the limiting seat 121 can be configured as an approximately square annular structure, and the annular limiting seat 121 can be sleeved on the rotating shaft portion 1113 of the clamping member 111, and the limiting seat 121 and the rotating shaft portion 1113 can be rotatably connected by the rotating shaft. Alternatively, a limiting groove or a limiting protrusion 1311, which serves as the limiting structure 1211, can be provided on the limiting seat 121, thereby limiting the rotation of the limiting seat 121 relative to the clamping member 111.

[0108] For example, the control member 122 can be configured as a rod-shaped structure, and the control member 122 can be rotatably connected to the limiting seat 121. For instance, one end of the control member 122 can be rotatably connected to the rotating shaft portion 1113 of the clamping member 111, such as by connecting both the control member 122 and the limiting seat 121 to the rotating shaft portion 1113 via the same rotating shaft, or by directly connecting the control member 122 and the limiting seat 121 to another rotating shaft, so that the control member 122 can rotate relative to the limiting seat 121. The swing angle of the control member 122 relative to the limiting seat 121 can be set to an angle less than or equal to 30°. For example, the swing angles of the control member 122 relative to the limiting seat 121 in two opposite directions can be set to 15°, 12°, 10°, or 8°, etc. In this way, the control member 122 can swing within a range of 15°, 12°, 10°, or 8° relative to the limiting seat 121 in one direction.

[0109] In this embodiment of the application, a reset component 15 can be provided in the control device 1. After the control member 122 swings relative to the limit seat 121, the reset component 15 can drive the control member 122 to return to the starting position before the swing relative to the limit seat 121.

[0110] For example, the reset assembly 15 can be a compression spring, a rubber block with elastic deformation properties, etc. Along the placement direction of the control member 122 relative to the limit seat 121, two compression springs or two rubber blocks can be provided between the control member 122 and the limit seat 121, and the two compression springs or two rubber blocks are respectively located on both sides of the control member 122 along the swing direction S of the control member 122 relative to the limit seat 121.

[0111] Thus, when the user applies a force along the first direction Y or the second direction Z to the control member 122 (at which time the limiting seat 121 is restricted by the limiting component 13 and cannot rotate relative to the clamping member 111), the control member 122 can swing a certain angle in the first direction Y or the second direction Z. At this time, a compression spring or a rubber block will be compressed by the control member 122 to generate a restoring force. After the user releases the control member 122, the control member 122 can move back to the initial position before swinging relative to the limiting seat 121 under the action of the restoring force, until the control member 122 is held in the initial position by the action of the two compression springs or the two rubber blocks.

[0112] Alternatively, after the user operates the unlocking member 133, causing the locking member 131 to move away from the limiting seat 121, and then the user applies a force to the control member 122 along the first direction Y or the second direction Z, the force applied by the control member 122 to the reset assembly 15 is transmitted to the limiting seat 121, which can cause the control member 122 and the limiting seat 121 to swing together along the first direction Y or the second direction Z relative to the clamping member 111.

[0113] In the above embodiments, the structure of the control component 12 as a limit seat 121 and a control member 122 facilitates the setting of the limit structure 1211 or the limit component 13. Furthermore, both the limit seat 121 and the control member 122 are rotatably connected to the connecting component 11. When the control component 12 is in different control postures relative to the connecting component 11, the control member 122 can also swing relative to the limit seat 121 within a certain angle range. This swinging motion of the control member 122 relative to the limit seat 121 can be used as a control action to control the target device. Simultaneously, a reset component 15 is provided between the limit seat 121 and the control member 122. After the user ends the swinging operation of the control member 122 relative to the limit seat 121, the reset component 15 can automatically move the control member 122 back to the starting position, thus automatically releasing the control action on the target device, which simplifies the operation of controlling the target device.

[0114] In some possible embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 14 and Figure 15 , Figure 14 A schematic diagram of the control device provided in this application in its first swing posture. Figure 15 This is a schematic diagram of the control device provided in this application in a second swing posture. The reset assembly 15 includes a toggle member and a reset member 153. The toggle member is rotatably disposed on the limit seat 121, and one end of the toggle member extends to connect with the control member 122. The reset member 153 is connected to the toggle member and is used to apply a restoring force to the toggle member, so that the toggle member applies a force to the control member 122 to keep the control member 122 in the initial position, or to make the toggle member drive the control member 122 to move towards the initial position.

[0115] In this embodiment, the reset component 15 can be configured to include a toggle member and a reset member 153. The toggle member can be rotatably connected to the limit seat 121, and the control member 122 can be connected to a part of the toggle member. The reset member 153 can be used to apply a restoring force to the toggle member, and the toggle member can be used to drive the control member 122 to move to the starting position.

[0116] For example, the actuating element can be configured as a sheet-like structure, and the resetting element 153 can be a leaf spring. For instance, the sheet-like actuating element, the limiting seat 121, and the control element 122 can all be rotatably connected to the rotating shaft portion 1113 via the same rotating shaft. A protrusion can be provided on the control element 122, extending radially from the outer wall of the control element 122. A through hole matching the protrusion on the control element 122 can be provided at the end of the actuating element near the control element 122, and the protrusion can be inserted into the through hole on the actuating element. One end of the leaf spring can be fixed to the end of the limiting seat 121 away from the control element 122, and the other end of the leaf spring can be slidably connected to the end of the actuating element away from the control element 122. If a notch matching the leaf spring is provided on the actuating element, the leaf spring can be inserted into the notch on the actuating element.

[0117] Thus, when the user applies a force along the first direction Y or the second direction Z to the control member 122, the control member 122 can drive the actuating member to rotate relative to the limiting seat 121 via the protrusion. At this time, the leaf spring slides relative to the actuating member and undergoes bending deformation. After the user releases the control member 122, the restoring force applied by the leaf spring to the actuating member causes the actuating member to rotate back to its previous position. The actuating member then drives the control member 122 to move back to its initial position before swinging relative to the limiting seat 121, until the control member 122 is held in the initial position under the action of the leaf spring.

[0118] In the above embodiments, since the reset assembly 15 includes a toggle member and a reset member 153, a restoring force can be applied to the toggle member through the reset member 153, and the toggle member can drive the control member 122 to move to the starting position. This structural arrangement allows the reset assembly 15 to be set in a larger space area between the limiting member and the control member 122, which helps to reduce the design difficulty of the reset assembly 15 and improve the reliability of the reset assembly 15.

[0119] In some possible embodiments of this application, such as Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the reset assembly 15 includes two toggle members. A driving part 124 is provided on the control member 122, and a limiting part 125 is provided on the limiting seat 121. The rotation axes of the two toggle members are both located between the driving part 124 and the limiting part 125. Along the swing direction S of the control member 122 relative to the connecting assembly 11, the first ends of each of the two toggle members are located on both sides of the driving part 124, and the second ends of each of the two toggle members are located on both sides of the limiting part 125. The first end and the second end of the same toggle member are located on different sides of the driving part 124 and the limiting part 125, respectively. The reset member 153 is connected to the two toggle members respectively, and the restoring force makes both toggle members tend to move closer to the limiting part 125.

[0120] In this embodiment, the reset assembly 15 can be configured to include two toggle members and a reset member 153. For example, both toggle members can be configured as approximately S-shaped curved structures, and both toggle members can be sheet-like structures. The limiting seat 121, the control member 122, and the two stacked toggle members can all be rotatably connected to the rotating shaft portion 1113 via the same rotating shaft. In this way, the approximately S-shaped first toggle member 151 and the second toggle member 152 are symmetrical structures relative to the rotating shaft, that is, the first toggle member 151 and the second toggle member 152 are intersecting relative to the rotating shaft.

[0121] For example, such as Figure 10 As shown, a protrusion extending radially on the control member 122 can be used as a driving part 124. The protrusion is located between the first end of the first actuating member 151 (the end of the actuating member close to the control member 122) and the first end of the second actuating member 152, so that the two sides of the protrusion can respectively abut against the first end of the first actuating member 151 or the first end of the second actuating member 152.

[0122] In another example, a limiting portion 125 can be provided on the limiting seat 121 to limit the range of motion of the first actuating member 151 and the second actuating member 152. For example, the limiting portion 125 can be a cylinder that extends from the surface of the limiting seat 121, or a single cylinder can be fixed to the limiting seat 121 by welding, bonding, threaded connection, or other means. The cylinder is positioned between the second end of the first actuating member 151 (the end of the actuating member away from the operating member 122) and the second end of the second actuating member 152.

[0123] In another example, the reset member 153 can be a tension spring. The two ends of the tension spring can be fixed to the second end of the first actuating member 151 and the second end of the second actuating member 152, respectively. Alternatively, the two ends of the tension spring can be fixed to the first end of the first actuating member 151 and the first end of the second actuating member 152, respectively. This application embodiment does not limit the specific location of the tension spring.

[0124] Thus, as Figure 11 As shown, during the swinging of the control member 122 in the first direction Y, the protrusion can abut against the first end of the first actuating member 151, causing the first actuating member 151 to rotate in the first direction Y. During this process, the protrusion separates from the first end of the second swinging member, the second end of the first actuating member 151 applies a tension force to the tension spring, while the second end of the second actuating member 152 is blocked by the limiting part 125, causing the tension spring to be stretched and generate a restoring force on the first actuating member 151. Figure 12 As shown, during the swing of the control member 122 in the second direction Z, the protrusion can abut against the first end of the second actuating member 152, causing the second actuating member 152 to rotate in the second direction Z. During this process, the protrusion separates from the first end of the first swing member, and the second end of the second actuating member 152 applies a tension force to the tension spring. Meanwhile, the second end of the first actuating member 151 is blocked by the limiting part 125, causing the tension spring to be stretched and generate a restoring force on the second actuating member 152. When the external force on the control member 122 disappears, the tension spring can pull the second end of the first actuating member 151 or the second end of the second actuating member 152 towards the limiting part 125, so that the first end of the first actuating member 151 or the first end of the second actuating member 152 drives the protrusion (control member 122) to move towards the starting position.

[0125] In the above embodiment, since the reset assembly 15 includes a reset member 153 and two toggle members, the two toggle members can apply a force toward the starting position to the control member 122 in two opposite directions. Furthermore, the limiting portion 125 restricts the movement range of each of the two toggle members, and the same reset member 153 applies a restoring force to both toggle members, ensuring that both toggle members always abut against the limiting portion 125. This reduces the risk of the control member 122 deviating from the starting position without being subjected to a force applied by the user.

[0126] In some possible embodiments of this application, such as Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the control assembly 12 also includes an adapter 123, which is rotatably connected to the connection assembly 11. A driving part 124 extends from the adapter 123, and the control member 122 is detachably disposed on the adapter 123.

[0127] In this embodiment, the control member 122 and the limiting seat 121 can be rotatably connected by the adapter 123. For example, one end of the adapter 123, the limiting seat 121, and the two actuating members can be rotatably connected to the rotating shaft portion 1113 of the clamping member 111 via the same rotating shaft, and then the control member 122 and the end of the adapter 123 away from the clamping member 111 can be fixedly connected.

[0128] For example, the control component 122 can be cylindrical as a whole, or a circular blind hole can be provided at the end where the control component 122 is connected to the adapter 123. Correspondingly, a cylinder matching the circular hole of the control component 122 can be provided on the adapter 123. The control component 122 can be sleeved on the cylinder of the adapter 123, and the control component 122 and the adapter 123 can be fixedly connected by bolts so that the control component 122 and the adapter 123 can be separated and disassembled by removing the bolts.

[0129] In another example, the driving part 124 can be provided on the adapter 123, that is, a protrusion can be formed from the surface of the adapter 123, and the protrusion on the adapter 123 can be used as the limiting part 125.

[0130] In the above embodiments, since the control component 122 is rotatably mounted on the connecting assembly 11 via the adapter 123 and the control component 122 is detachably connected to the adapter 123, it is convenient to disassemble and install the control component 122. During the transportation of the control device 1, the control component 122 can be disassembled, which helps to reduce the packaging volume.

[0131] In some possible embodiments of this application, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the control device 1 also includes a control component 16, a portion of which is disposed on the control member 122 and another portion of which is disposed on the limit seat 121. The control component 16 is configured to generate a control signal in response to the swing angle of the control member 122 relative to the limit seat 121. The control signal is used to control at least one of the travel direction and travel speed of the target device.

[0132] In this embodiment of the application, a control component 16 can be provided on the control device 1 to control the movement of the target device through the control signal generated by the control component 16.

[0133] For example, one part of the control component 16 can be disposed on the control member 122, and the other part of the control component 16 can be disposed on the limiting seat 121, with the two parts of the control component 16 corresponding to each other. In this way, when the user applies a force to the control member 122, causing the control member 122 to swing relative to the limiting seat 121 in the first direction Y or the second direction Z, the two parts of the control component 16 can generate relative movement, thereby enabling the control component 16 to generate a control signal corresponding to the swing of the control member 122.

[0134] In another example, the control component 16 can employ a device capable of detecting changes in angle or distance. Thus, during the swinging of the control member 122 relative to the limiting seat 121, when the swinging direction S and swing angle of the control member 122 are different, the control component 16 can generate control signals corresponding to the different swinging directions S and swing angles. The direction of travel of the target device can be controlled based on the control signals generated by the control component 16, and the travel speed of the target device can also be controlled based on the control signals generated by the control component 16. For example, when the control member 122 swings relative to the limiting seat 121 in the first direction Y, the target device can be controlled to move in the first direction Y at a preset speed. When the control member 122 swings relative to the limiting seat 121 in the second direction Z, the target device can be controlled to move in the second direction Z at a preset speed.

[0135] In the above embodiments, since a control component 16 is provided between the control member 122 and the limiting seat 121, during the swinging process of the control member 122 relative to the limiting seat 121, the control component 16 can generate a control signal corresponding to the swing angle of the control member 122. Thus, the control signal generated by the control component 16 can be used to control the direction and speed of the target device, which helps to simplify the operation of controlling the movement mode of the target device and makes the operation of the movement mode of the target device simpler and more convenient.

[0136] In some possible embodiments of this application, such as Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the control member 122 can swing relative to the limiting seat 121 in a first direction Y or a second direction Z, where the first direction Y and the second direction Z are two opposite directions; wherein, during the swing of the control member 122 in the first direction Y, the control component 16 can generate a first control signal, which is used to control the target device to move in the first direction Y; during the swing of the control member 122 in the second direction Z, the control component 16 can generate a second control signal, which is used to control the target device to move in the second direction Z.

[0137] In this embodiment, the reset component 15 can keep the control member 122 in the middle position relative to the limiting seat 121. That is, when the user does not apply force to the control member 122, the axis of the control member 122 is on the bisector of the angle of the swing angle between the control member 122 and the limiting seat 121. The control member 122 can swing a certain angle in the first direction Y or the second direction Z from the middle position, and can return to the middle position after swinging from the middle position in either direction.

[0138] For example, two detection components 14 can be provided on the control member 122. The first detection component 14 generates a first control signal when the control member 122 moves relative to the limiting seat 121 in the first direction Y, while the second detection component 14 does not generate a control signal. The second detection component 14 generates a second control signal when the control member 122 moves relative to the limiting seat 121 in the second direction Z, while the first detection component 14 does not generate a control signal. Thus, the target device can be controlled to move in two different directions using the first and second control signals respectively. For example, the first control signal can control the target device to move at a constant speed from rest in the first direction Y, and the second control signal can control the target device to move at a constant speed from rest in the second direction Z.

[0139] In the above embodiments, when the control member 122 moves relative to the limiting seat 121 in the first direction Y or the second direction Z, the control component 16 can generate corresponding first control signal and second control signal respectively. The target device can be controlled to move in the first direction Y or the second direction Z by the first control signal and the second control signal respectively. This makes the movement direction of the target device correspond to the swing direction S of the control member 122 relative to the limiting seat 121, which helps to simplify the operation logic of controlling the movement direction of the target device.

[0140] In some possible embodiments of this application, the control component 16 is configured to generate a control signal whose strength is positively or negatively correlated with the magnitude of the swing angle.

[0141] In this embodiment, the strengths of the first and second control signals generated by the control component 16 can be correlated with the swing angle of the control member 122 relative to the limiting seat 121 by selecting the control component 16. For example, the control component 16 can be a capacitive angle sensor, a resistive angle sensor, a magnetoelectric angle sensor, etc. Therefore, the larger the swing angle of the control member 122 relative to the limiting seat 121, the larger the current or voltage generated by the control component 16 as a control signal, and vice versa.

[0142] For example, the speed of the target device can be controlled according to the strength of the control signal. For instance, the greater the swing angle of the control member 122 relative to the limit seat 121, the greater the signal strength of the control signal, and the target device can be controlled to move at a faster speed; the smaller the swing angle of the control member 122 relative to the limit seat 121, the smaller the signal strength of the control signal, and the target device can be controlled to move at a slower speed.

[0143] In the above embodiments, since the strength of the control signal generated by the control component 16 is related to the swing angle of the control member 122 relative to the limit seat 121, the movement of the target device can be controlled according to the swing angle of the control member 122. For example, the movement speed of the target device can be controlled according to the swing angle of the control member 122, which helps to simplify the operation logic for controlling the movement speed of the target device.

[0144] In some possible embodiments of this application, such as Figure 3 As shown, the control component 16 includes a Hall element 161 and a magnetic element 162. The Hall element 161 is disposed on one of the control member 122 and the limit seat 121, and the magnetic element 162 is disposed on the other of the control member 122 and the limit seat 121 at a position corresponding to the Hall element 161.

[0145] In this embodiment, the control component 16 can employ a magnetoelectric sensor. For example, the control component 16 can have a structure including a Hall element 161 and a magnetic element 162, where the magnetic element 162 can be a permanent magnet such as a magnet. The Hall element 161 can be fixed to the adapter 123 or the control element 122, and correspondingly, the magnetic element 162 can be fixed to the limiting seat 121. Alternatively, the Hall element 161 can be fixed to the limiting seat 121, and correspondingly, the magnetic element 162 can be fixed to the adapter 123 or the control element 122. In this way, during the swinging of the control element 122 relative to the limiting seat 121, the Hall element 161 can be moved relative to the magnetic element 162, or the magnetic element 162 can be moved relative to the Hall element 161.

[0146] In the above embodiments, since the control component 16 includes a Hall element 161 and a magnetic element 162, the distance between the Hall element 161 and the magnetic element 162 can be changed by the swinging of the control element 122 relative to the limiting seat 121, thereby changing the magnitude of the magnetic field around the Hall element 161. This allows the Hall element 161 to generate a voltage corresponding to the magnetic field strength, which can then be used as a control signal for the target device. Furthermore, the measurement between the Hall element 161 and the magnetic element 162 is non-contact, which helps reduce wear on the control component 16 and improves the accuracy of the control component 16 in detecting the swing angle of the control element 122, thus improving the accuracy of controlling the speed of the target device.

[0147] In addition, this application also provides a campervan, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the campervan includes: a vehicle body 2, a walking mechanism 3, and a control device 1 provided in any of the above embodiments; wherein the walking mechanism 3 is disposed on the vehicle body 2; and the connecting component 11 is disposed on the vehicle body 2.

[0148] In this embodiment, the vehicle body 2 can accommodate and carry the target object to be transported. For example, the vehicle body 2 can be set as a flat plate, a foldable frame structure, or a fixed frame structure. A fabric cover can be provided on the frame of the vehicle body 2 to form a box structure with side walls and a bottom wall.

[0149] For example, a walking mechanism 3 can be provided on the vehicle body 2. The walking mechanism 3 can be a structure including multiple rollers, for example, one roller can be provided at each of the four corners of the bottom of the vehicle body 2. A driving component can also be provided in the walking mechanism 3, for example, a motor can be provided in the walking mechanism 3, and the motor can be connected to at least one roller to drive the roller to rotate, so that the campervan can move on its own.

[0150] In another example, a fixing post matching the connection assembly 11 of the control device 1 can be installed on the vehicle body 2. The connection assembly 11 can be fixedly connected to the fixing post to install the control device 1 on the vehicle body 2. The detection assembly 14 and the control assembly 16 of the control device 1 can be electrically connected to the controller of the campervan to control the movement of the walking mechanism 3 through the detection signal generated by the detection assembly 14 and the control signal generated by the control assembly 16, thereby controlling the movement of the campervan.

[0151] The campervan provided in this application includes the control device 1 provided in any of the above embodiments, which makes it easier to position the control device 1 in a suitable control posture relative to the vehicle body 2, thereby improving the convenience of controlling the campervan.
