Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of potentiometer technology, and in particular to an adjustable rocker potentiometer. Background Technology
[0002] A joystick potentiometer is a variable potentiometer suitable for joystick control handles in drones, game consoles, etc. By shaking the joystick of the joystick potentiometer, and then adjusting the resistance value through the brush mechanism of the potentiometer, the state changes of related internal components of drones, game consoles, etc. can be controlled.
[0003] Referring to another patent ZL202122591184.1 filed by the present utility model applicant on 2021 / 10 / 27, it discloses a rocker potentiometer, including a face cover, a large rocker arm, a first locking member, a second locking member, a first spring arm, a first spring, a first potentiometer assembly, a bottom cover, a small rocker arm, a second spring arm, a second spring, a second potentiometer assembly, and a rocker arm; wherein, the first locking member is provided with a first spring hook, the first spring arm is installed in the left-right direction, the right end of the first spring arm is movably hinged to the front end of the face cover, and the first spring arm... The left end of the large rocker arm is provided with a second spring hook, and a first spring is connected between the first spring hook and the second spring hook. The front end of the large rocker arm is provided with a first top block for lifting the left end of the first spring arm upwards. The lower end of the bottom cover is provided with a third spring hook. The second spring arm is installed in the front-rear direction, and the front end of the second spring arm is movably hinged to the left end of the large rocker arm cavity. The rear end of the second spring arm is provided with a fourth spring hook, and a second spring is connected between the third spring hook and the fourth spring hook. The left end of the small rocker arm is provided with a second top block for lifting the rear end of the second spring arm upwards. This patent, through the cooperation of the first spring arm, the first spring, the second spring arm, and the second spring, makes the rocker potentiometer feel good during rocker arm rocking, the large and small rocker arms have good centering effect, and the changes in the rocker arm deflection amplitude and the changes in the rocker arm rocking force can be increased or decreased synchronously.
[0004] Furthermore, the cover of patent ZL202122591184.1 is equipped with a spring plate. The left end of the spring plate is connected to the left side of the lower end of the cover, and the right end of the spring plate is connected to the right side of the lower end of the cover. The middle part of the spring plate has an upwardly arched protrusion. The lower end of the bottom cover has an arc-shaped sliding surface. The protrusion elastically abuts against the lower side of the arc-shaped sliding surface. By setting the spring plate, when the rocker arm is pushed to rotate to a certain position based on the front and rear rotating axes, the spring plate can lock the bottom cover and thus lock the rocker arm and the rocker arm, solving the problem of human hand and improving the feel.
[0005] However, patent ZL202122591184.1 also has the following problems:
[0006] (1) Since the position of the first spring hook of the first locking component remains unchanged, the change process of the spring force between the first spring hook and the second spring hook is constant, so the change process of the feel force of the rocker arm rotating when the rocker arm is rocked is constant and cannot be adjusted according to the user's needs; Since the position of the third spring hook of the bottom cover remains unchanged, the change process of the spring force between the third spring hook and the fourth spring hook is constant, so the change process of the feel force of the rocker arm rotating when the rocker arm is rocked is constant and cannot be adjusted according to the user's needs.
[0007] (2) When the rocker potentiometer needs to use the spring and the arc-shaped sliding surface to cooperate so that the rocker can keep the rocker and the large rocker arm stationary when the rocker pushes the large rocker arm to a certain position based on the front and rear rotating shafts, there is a prerequisite: the first spring arm and the first spring must be removed to eliminate the centering effect of the first spring arm on the large rocker arm. Only by eliminating the centering effect on the large rocker arm can the large rocker arm be kept stationary in a certain position. However, it is very cumbersome to remove the first spring arm and the first spring from the rocker potentiometer, and it is also very cumbersome to reinstall the first spring arm and the first spring on the rocker potentiometer. Therefore, in the current technology, rocker potentiometers with and without centering effect are two different types of rocker potentiometers, which are manufactured separately. Users cannot directly switch the functions of the two types of rocker potentiometers.
[0008] (3) When the rocker potentiometer is a rocker potentiometer without a return function, the damping friction between the spring and the arc-shaped sliding surface is constant. The user cannot adjust the damping friction between the spring and the arc-shaped sliding surface, so the damping friction of the rocker arm cannot be adjusted when rocking. Utility Model Content

[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0020] (1) In this utility model, the first locking member is installed at one end of the cover, one end of the large rocker arm is rotatably inserted into the first locking member, one end of the first spring arm is rotatably connected to the first locking member, the other end of the first spring arm is connected to the upper end of the first spring, and one end of the large rocker arm is provided with a first transmission part. The first transmission part and the first spring arm are in abutting cooperation. Therefore, when the rocker arm drives the large rocker arm to rotate forward or backward, the first transmission part can force the other end of the first spring arm to swing downward and compress the first spring, so that the user can feel the large rocker arm rotating by rocking the rocker arm. When the user releases the rocker arm, the first spring releases its elastic force, causing the other end of the first spring arm to swing upward and push the first transmission part in the opposite direction, so that the large rocker arm automatically resets and rotates to the initial position, and the rocker arm automatically returns to the center, thus forming a good centering effect.
[0021] (2) In this utility model, since the second locking member is installed on the large rocker arm, one end of the small rocker arm is rotatably inserted into the second locking member, one end of the second spring arm is rotatably connected to the second locking member, and the other end of the second spring arm is connected to the upper end of the second spring. One end of the small rocker arm is provided with a second transmission part, and the second transmission part abuts and cooperates with the second spring arm. Therefore, when the rocker arm drives the small rocker arm to rotate forward or backward, the second transmission part can force the other end of the second spring arm to swing downward and compress the second spring, so that the user can feel the small rocker arm rotating by rocking the rocker arm. When the user releases the rocker arm, the second spring releases its elastic force, causing the other end of the second spring arm to swing upward and push the second transmission part in the opposite direction, so that the small rocker arm automatically resets and rotates to the initial position, and the rocker arm automatically returns to the center, thus forming a good centering effect.
[0022] (3) In this utility model, the first adjusting arm is located below the first spring arm. One end of the first adjusting arm is rotatably connected to the first locking member, and the other end of the first adjusting arm is connected to the lower end of the first spring. A first adjusting member is provided between the first adjusting arm and the first locking member. The first adjusting member is used to adjust the other end of the first adjusting arm to swing upward or downward by a set angle to increase or decrease the elastic force of the first spring. Therefore, when the other end of the first adjusting arm is adjusted to swing upward, the length of the first spring is shortened and the degree of compression is increased, and the elastic force of the first spring will increase. This will increase the force exerted by the first spring arm on the first transmission part in the opposite direction, and increase the feel force of the user shaking the large rocker arm by the rocker arm. When the other end of the first adjusting arm is adjusted to swing downward, the length of the first spring is extended and the degree of compression is reduced, and the elastic force of the first spring will decrease. This will decrease the force exerted by the first spring arm on the first transmission part in the opposite direction, and decrease the feel force of the user shaking the large rocker arm by the rocker arm. Thus, this utility model can adjust the feel force of the rocker arm to rotate by the rocker arm, and meet the different user requirements for the feel force of the rocker arm to rotate by the rocker arm.
[0023] (4) In this utility model, the second adjusting arm is located below the second spring arm. One end of the second adjusting arm is rotatably connected to the second locking member, and the other end of the second adjusting arm is connected to the lower end of the second spring. A second adjusting member is provided between the second adjusting arm and the second locking member. The second adjusting member is used to adjust the other end of the second adjusting arm to swing upward or downward by a set angle to increase or decrease the elastic force of the second spring. Therefore, when the other end of the second adjusting arm is adjusted to swing upward, the length of the second spring is shortened and the degree of compression is increased, and the elastic force of the second spring will increase. This increases the force exerted by the second spring arm on the second transmission part in the opposite direction, and the user's hand strength when shaking the small rocker arm with the rocker arm is increased. When the other end of the second adjusting arm is adjusted to swing downward, the length of the second spring is extended and the degree of compression is reduced, and the elastic force of the second spring will decrease. This reduces the force exerted by the second spring arm on the second transmission part in the opposite direction, and the user's hand strength when shaking the small rocker arm with the rocker arm is reduced. Thus, this utility model can adjust the hand strength when shaking the small rocker arm with the rocker arm to meet the different user's hand strength requirements for shaking the small rocker arm with the rocker arm.

[0030] The structural and working principles of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0031] like Figures 1-6As shown, this utility model is an adjustable rocker potentiometer, including a face cover 1, a large rocker arm 2, a first locking member 3, a first spring arm 4, a first adjusting arm 5, a first spring 6, a small rocker arm 7, a second locking member 8, a second spring arm 9, a second adjusting arm 10, a second spring 11, and a rocker arm 12; the face cover 1 has a face cover cavity 28, the large rocker arm 2 is rotatably installed in the face cover cavity 28 of the face cover 1, the first locking member 3 is installed at one end of the face cover 1, and one end of the large rocker arm 2 is rotatably inserted into the first locking member 3; the first spring arm 12... One end of the spring arm 4 is rotatably connected to the first locking member 3, and the other end of the first spring arm 4 is connected to the upper end of the first spring 6. One end of the large rocker arm 2 is provided with a first transmission part 21, which abuts against the first spring arm 4. The first adjusting arm 5 is located below the first spring arm 4. One end of the first adjusting arm 5 is rotatably connected to the first locking member 3, and the other end of the first adjusting arm 5 is connected to the lower end of the first spring 6. A first adjusting member 13 is provided between the first adjusting arm 5 and the first locking member 3, and the first adjusting member 13 is used to adjust the first adjusting arm. The other end of 5 swings upward or downward at a set angle to increase or decrease the elastic force of the first spring 6; the large rocker arm 2 is provided with a large rocker arm cavity 29, the small rocker arm 7 is rotatably installed in the large rocker arm cavity 29, the second locking member 8 is installed on the large rocker arm 2, and one end of the small rocker arm 7 is rotatably inserted into the second locking member 8; one end of the second spring arm 9 is rotatably connected to the second locking member 8, and the other end of the second spring arm 9 is connected to the upper end of the second spring 11; one end of the small rocker arm 7 is provided with a second transmission part 71, the second The transmission part 71 abuts against the second spring arm 9; the second adjusting arm 10 is located below the second spring arm 9, one end of the second adjusting arm 10 is rotatably connected to the second locking member 8, and the other end of the second adjusting arm 10 is connected to the lower end of the second spring 11. A second adjusting member 14 is provided between the second adjusting arm 10 and the second locking member 8. The second adjusting member 14 is used to adjust the other end of the second adjusting arm 10 to swing upward or downward by a set angle, so as to increase or decrease the elastic force of the second spring 11; the rocker arm 12 is connected to the middle part of the small rocker arm 7.
[0032] When the rocker arm 2 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, the first transmission part 21 forces the other end of the first spring arm 4 to swing downward and compress the first spring 6, providing a good feel for the user to rotate the large rocker arm 2 by rocking the rocker arm 2 with the rocker arm 12. When the user releases the rocker arm 12, the first spring 6 releases its elastic force, causing the other end of the first spring arm 4 to swing upward and push the first transmission part 21 in the opposite direction, so that the large rocker arm 2 automatically resets and rotates to the initial position, and the rocker arm 12 automatically returns to the center, thus forming a good centering effect. In this operation, clockwise rotation means that the rocker arm 12 tilts clockwise and drives the large rocker arm 2 to rotate clockwise, and counterclockwise rotation means that the rocker arm 12 tilts counterclockwise and drives the large rocker arm 2 to rotate counterclockwise.
[0033] When the rocker arm 7 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, the second transmission part 71 forces the other end of the second spring arm 9 to swing downward and compress the second spring 11, providing a good feel for the user to rotate the small rocker arm 7 by rocking the rocker arm 12. When the user releases the rocker arm 12, the second spring 11 releases its elasticity, causing the other end of the second spring arm 9 to swing upward and push the second transmission part 71 in the opposite direction, so that the small rocker arm 7 automatically returns to its initial position and the rocker arm 12 automatically returns to center, thus forming a good centering effect. In this operation, clockwise rotation means that the rocker arm 12 tilts clockwise and drives the small rocker arm 7 to rotate clockwise, and counterclockwise rotation means that the rocker arm 12 tilts counterclockwise and drives the small rocker arm 7 to rotate counterclockwise.
[0034] When the first adjusting member 13 of this invention adjusts the other end of the first adjusting arm 5 to swing upward by a set angle, the length of the first spring 6 shortens, the degree of compression increases, and the elastic force of the first spring 6 increases. This increases the force exerted by the first spring arm 4 on the first transmission part 21 in the opposite direction, thus increasing the feel of the user rotating the large rocker arm 2 by shaking the rocker arm 2 with the rocker arm 12. When the first adjusting member 13 of this invention adjusts the other end of the first adjusting arm 5 to swing downward by a set angle, the length of the first spring 6 lengthens, the degree of compression decreases, and the elastic force of the first spring 6 decreases. This decreases the force exerted by the first spring arm 4 on the first transmission part 21 in the opposite direction, thus reducing the feel of the user rotating the large rocker arm 2 by shaking the rocker arm 2 with the rocker arm 12. Therefore, this invention can adjust the feel of the rocker arm 2 rotating by shaking the rocker arm 12, satisfying the different user needs for the feel of the rocker arm 2 rotating by shaking the rocker arm 12.
[0035] When the second adjusting member 14 of this invention adjusts the other end of the second adjusting arm 10 to swing upward by a set angle, the length of the second spring 11 shortens, the degree of compression increases, and the elastic force of the second spring 11 increases. This increases the force exerted by the second spring arm 9 on the second transmission part 71, thus increasing the feel of the user rotating the small rocker arm 7 by shaking the rocker arm 12. When the second adjusting member 14 of this invention adjusts the other end of the second adjusting arm 10 to swing downward by a set angle, the length of the second spring 11 lengthens, the degree of compression decreases, and the elastic force of the second spring 11 decreases. This decreases the force exerted by the second spring arm 9 on the second transmission part 71, thus reducing the feel of the user rotating the small rocker arm 7 by shaking the rocker arm 12. Therefore, this invention can adjust the feel of the rocker arm 12 rotating the small rocker arm 7 to meet the different user requirements for the feel of the rocker arm 12 rotating the small rocker arm 7.
[0036] like Figures 2-5As shown, one end of the first locking member 3 is provided with a first shaft hole 31 and a second shaft hole 32, with the second shaft hole 32 located below the first shaft hole 31.

This structure enables the first adjusting arm 5 to swing up and down with a guiding function, making it more stable and reliable. The first guide waist-shaped hole 54 of this utility model has a waist-shaped hole structure and a gap between it and the first guide rod 34, which can prevent the first adjusting arm 5 from getting stuck on the first guide rod 34 when swinging up and down. Figures 2-4 , Figure 6As shown, the second locking member 8 is provided with a second guide rod 84 on the lower side of the middle part, and the second adjusting arm 10 is provided with a second guide waist-shaped hole 104 in the middle part. The second guide rod 84 is movably inserted into the second guide waist-shaped hole 104. This structure enables the second adjusting arm 10 to swing up and down with a guiding function, making it more stable and reliable. The second guide waist-shaped hole 104 of this utility model is a waist-shaped hole structure with a gap between it and the second guide rod 84, which can prevent the second adjusting arm 10 from getting stuck on the second guide rod 84 when swinging up and down.
[0040] like Figures 2-6 As shown, one end of the large rocker arm 2 is provided with a first large rocker arm pivot 22, and the upper end of the first locking member 3 is provided with a first bearing 35, with the first large rocker arm pivot 22 inserted into the first bearing 35; one end of the small rocker arm 7 is provided with a first small rocker arm pivot 72, and the upper end of the second locking member 8 is provided with a second bearing 85, with the first small rocker arm pivot 72 inserted into the second bearing 85; the first transmission part 21 is provided on both sides of the first large rocker arm pivot 22, and the first transmission part 21 includes a first top block 211 and a second top block 212. When the rocker arm 12 drives the large rocker arm 2 to rotate in the forward direction, the first top block 211 can force the other side of the first spring arm 4 to rotate. One end swings downward and compresses the first spring 6. When the rocker arm 12 drives the large rocker arm 2 to rotate in the opposite direction, the second top block 212 can force the other end of the first spring arm 4 to swing downward and compress the first spring 6. The second transmission part 71 is provided on both sides of the first small rocker arm shaft 72. The second transmission part 71 includes a third top block 711 and a fourth top block 712. When the rocker arm 12 drives the small rocker arm 7 to rotate in the forward direction, the third top block 711 can force the other end of the second spring arm 9 to swing downward and compress the second spring 11. When the rocker arm 12 drives the small rocker arm 7 to rotate in the opposite direction, the fourth top block 712 can force the other end of the second spring arm 9 to swing downward and compress the second spring 11.
[0041] like Figures 3-5 As shown, the first locking member 3 has a first limiting part 36 on one side for limiting one side of the first spring arm 4, and the first adjusting arm 5 has a second limiting part 55 for limiting the other side of the first spring arm 4. The first spring arm 4 can swing downward or upward between the first limiting part 36 and the second limiting part 55. This structure enables the first spring arm 4 to swing up and down stably and reliably. Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, the second locking member 8 has a third limiting part 86 on one side for limiting one side of the second spring arm 9, and the second adjusting arm 10 has a fourth limiting part 105 for limiting the other side of the second spring arm 9. The second spring arm 9 can swing down or up between the third limiting part 86 and the fourth limiting part 105. This structure enables the second spring arm 9 to swing up and down stably and reliably.
[0042] like Figures 2-6 As shown, the adjustable rocker potentiometer further includes a first potentiometer assembly 15 and a second potentiometer assembly 16. The first potentiometer assembly 15 is installed at the other end of the faceplate 1. The other end of the large rocker arm 2 is provided with a second large rocker arm pivot 27, which is rotatably inserted into the first potentiometer assembly 15. The second potentiometer assembly 16 is installed on the large rocker arm 2. The other end of the small rocker arm 7 is provided with a second small rocker arm pivot 73, which is rotatably inserted into the second potentiometer assembly 16. The upper end of the rocker arm 12 moves upward through the large rocker arm 2 and the faceplate 1 and is connected to an aluminum cap 121.
[0043] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the adjustable rocker potentiometer also includes a metal spring 17, a third adjusting bolt 18, and a fourth adjusting bolt 19. A damping part 23 is connected to the lower end of the large rocker arm 2. An arc-shaped sliding surface 231 is provided on the lower side of the damping part 23. The metal spring 17 is located on the lower side of the arc-shaped sliding surface 231. One end of the metal spring 17 is connected to one side of the cover 1. The third adjusting bolt 18 is installed between the other end of the metal spring 17 and the other side of the cover 1. The third adjusting bolt 18 is used to adjust whether the metal spring 17 and the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 are in contact or separated, and to increase or decrease the damping friction force between the metal spring 17 and the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 when they are in contact. Figure 2As shown, the cover 1 is provided with a screw seat 20 connected to the third adjusting bolt 18. When the third adjusting bolt 18 is in its initial state, the distance between the nut of the third adjusting bolt 18 and the screw seat 20 of the cover is the largest. At this time, the metal spring 17 and the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 are separated from each other. When the third adjusting bolt 18 rotates clockwise, the distance between the nut of the third adjusting bolt 18 and the screw seat 20 of the cover gradually decreases. At this time, the metal spring 17 and the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 gradually come into contact with each other, generating damping friction. When the third adjusting bolt 18 continues to rotate clockwise, the distance between the nut of the third adjusting bolt 18 and the screw seat 20 of the cover continues to decrease. At this time, the damping friction between the metal spring 17 and the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 increases. When the third adjusting bolt 18 rotates counterclockwise, the damping friction between the metal spring 17 and the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 gradually decreases until the third adjusting bolt 18 returns to its initial state, and the metal spring 17 and the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 separate from each other. Figures 1-5 As shown, the fourth adjusting bolt 19 is installed on the cover 1. The fourth adjusting bolt 19 cooperates with the other end of the first spring arm 4. The fourth adjusting bolt 19 is used to adjust the separation or contact of the first spring arm 4 and the first transmission part 21. When the fourth adjusting bolt 19 rotates clockwise, the fourth adjusting bolt 19 moves downward and presses against the first spring arm 4 to compress the first spring 6 and swing downward, so that the first spring arm 4 and the first transmission part 21 are separated. When the fourth adjusting bolt 19 rotates counterclockwise, the fourth adjusting bolt 19 moves upward, and the first spring 6 pushes the first spring arm 4 to swing upward, so that the first spring arm 4 and the first transmission part 21 are in contact and in transmission.
[0044] This invention allows the first spring arm 4 to separate from or engage with the first transmission part 21 by adjusting the fourth adjusting bolt 19. When the first spring arm 4 is separated from the first transmission part 21, the first spring arm 4 does not have a centering effect on the large rocker arm 2. At this time, when the user releases the rocker arm, the large rocker arm will stop moving. When the first spring arm 4 is engaged with the first transmission part 21, the first spring arm 4 has a centering effect on the large rocker arm. At this time, when the user releases the rocker arm, the large rocker arm will automatically rotate to its initial position. Thus, by adjusting the fourth adjusting bolt 19, the user can switch the rocker potentiometer with the centering effect on the large rocker arm to one without, or vice versa.
[0045] When this utility model is adjusted to a rocker potentiometer without a return-to-center function by the fourth adjusting bolt 19, the metal spring 17 and the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 can be separated or brought into contact by adjusting the third adjusting bolt 18. When the metal spring 17 and the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 are in contact, the damping friction between the metal spring 17 and the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 can be increased or decreased. Therefore, by adjusting the third adjusting bolt 18, the user can adjust the damping friction between the spring and the arc-shaped sliding surface, thereby adjusting the damping friction of the rocker when rocking the large rocker arm.
[0046] like Figures 2-5 As shown, the metal spring 17 has an arc-shaped contact surface 171 in the middle that matches the shape of the arc-shaped sliding surface 231. The other end of the metal spring 17 has a third adjusting waist-shaped hole 172. The cover 1 has a third adjusting screw hole 106, which is located on the screw seat 20 of the cover. The third adjusting bolt 18 moves from bottom to top through the third adjusting waist-shaped hole 172 and can be loosely or loosely screwed into the third adjusting screw hole 106. The third adjusting waist-shaped hole 172 of this utility model has a waist-shaped hole structure and a gap between it and the third adjusting bolt 18, which can prevent the metal spring 17 from getting stuck on the third adjusting bolt 18 when moving up and down. The cover 1 has a fourth adjusting screw hole 107. The fourth adjusting bolt 19 is screwed into the fourth adjusting screw hole 107 from top to bottom. The lower end of the fourth adjusting bolt 19 extends downward out of the fourth adjusting screw hole 107 and abuts against the upper side of the other end of the first spring arm 4.
[0047] The adjustment method of the adjustable rocker potentiometer of this utility model includes the following steps:
[0048] I. Steps for adjusting the feel and force of the joystick when rotating the large and small rocker arms:
[0049] i. Adjust the third adjusting bolt 18 downwards to separate the metal spring 17 from the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 of the damping part 23 of the large rocker arm 2; at the same time, adjust the fourth adjusting bolt 19 upwards to separate the fourth adjusting bolt 19 from the other end of the first spring arm 4, thereby making the first spring arm 4 and the first transmission part 21 contact and engage in transmission.
[0050] ii. When it is necessary to increase the feel of the rocker arm, adjust the first adjustment member 13 upward, and the other end of the first adjustment arm 5 swings upward by a set angle. The length of the first spring 6 shortens, the degree of compression increases, and the elastic force of the first spring 6 increases. This, in turn, increases the force exerted by the first spring arm 4 on the first transmission part 21, and the feel of the rocker arm 2 rotating by the user through the rocker arm 12 increases. When it is necessary to decrease the feel of the rocker arm, adjust the first adjustment member 13 downward, and the other end of the first adjustment arm 5 swings downward by a set angle. The length of the first spring 6 lengthens, the degree of compression decreases, and the elastic force of the first spring 6 decreases. This, in turn, decreases the force exerted by the first spring arm 4 on the first transmission part 21, and the feel of the rocker arm 2 rotating by the user through the rocker arm 12 decreases.
[0051] iii. When it is necessary to increase the force required to rotate the small rocker arm with the joystick, adjust the second adjustment member 14 upwards, and swing the other end of the second adjustment arm 10 upwards by a set angle. The length of the second spring 11 shortens, the degree of compression increases, and the elastic force of the second spring 11 increases. This, in turn, increases the force exerted by the second adjustment arm 10 on the second transmission part 71, thus increasing the force required for the user to rotate the small rocker arm 7 by the joystick 12. When it is necessary to decrease the force required to rotate the small rocker arm with the joystick, adjust the second adjustment member 14 downwards, and swing the other end of the second adjustment arm 10 downwards by a set angle. The length of the second spring 11 lengthens, the degree of compression decreases, and the elastic force of the second spring 11 decreases. This, in turn, decreases the force exerted by the second adjustment arm 10 on the second transmission part 71, thus decreasing the force required for the user to rotate the small rocker arm 7 by the joystick 12.
[0052] II. Steps for adjusting the damping friction of the rocker arm:
[0053] i. Adjust the fourth adjusting bolt 19 to move it downward, so that the fourth adjusting bolt 19 presses against the first spring arm 4 to compress the first spring 6 downward and make the first spring arm swing downward, thereby separating the first spring arm 4 from the first transmission part 21.
[0054] ii. Adjust the third adjusting bolt 18 upwards so that the metal spring 17 comes into contact with the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 of the damping part 23 of the large rocker arm 2 and generates damping friction.
[0055] iii. When it is necessary to increase the damping friction force of the rocker arm, adjust the third adjusting bolt 18 to move it upward, so that the damping friction force between the metal spring 17 and the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 of the damping part 23 of the rocker arm 2 gradually increases; when it is necessary to decrease the damping friction force of the rocker arm, adjust the third adjusting bolt 18 to move it downward, so that the damping friction force between the metal spring 17 and the arc-shaped sliding surface 231 of the damping part 23 of the rocker arm 2 gradually decreases.
[0056] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. Any minor modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical solution of this utility model shall fall within the scope of the technical solution of this utility model.
