[0027] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0028] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0029] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0030] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise explicitly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0031] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can mean that the first feature is in direct contact with the second feature, or that the first feature is in indirect contact with the second feature through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0032] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a game control component, including an electronic device bracket 1 and a game button controller 2. The game button controller 2 is provided with a plug interface 22. The electronic device bracket 1 includes a plug-in part, which is interference-connected to the plug interface 22, so that the electronic device bracket 1 and the game button controller 2 are combined into one unit.

[0034] The size and shape of the connector 22 need to be precisely designed to match the size and shape of the plug portion, thereby achieving an interference fit. Generally, the connector 22 is rectangular in shape.

[0035] The interference fit ensures a secure connection between the electronic device bracket 1 and the game button controller 2. Even during intense gameplay, such as frequent button pressing or rapid device shaking in action games, the connection remains strong and secure. This guarantees smooth gameplay, preventing interruptions due to connection issues and significantly enhancing the gaming experience. Furthermore, the interference fit requires no additional tools; players simply align the connector of the electronic device bracket 1 with the connector 22 of the game button controller 2 and apply slight pressure to complete the installation. Compared to traditional methods requiring screws or complex clips, this significantly reduces installation time and effort, improving user convenience.

[0036] In one embodiment, the connector 22 is located on the front side of the game button controller 2.

[0037] Specifically, the front side of the game button controller 2 is usually the area directly faced by the player when operating the buttons. The connector 22 can be designed near the bottom edge and centered, which ensures the stability of the overall structure after connecting to the electronic device bracket 1, without affecting the player's operation of the buttons.

[0038] Positioning the connector 22 near the bottom edge of the front side lowers and more evenly distributes the center of gravity of the connected electronic device holder 1. For example, when the electronic device 3 is placed on the electronic device holder 1 and connected to the game button controller 2, the lower position of the connector 22 creates a stable trapezoidal structure. Compared to positions where the connector 22 would be, this reduces the likelihood of the device wobbling or falling due to instability when the player holds and operates the game button controller 2, ensuring stability during gameplay.

[0039] Of course, in some embodiments, the interface 22 is located on the left or right side of the game button controller 2.

[0040] In one embodiment, the plug-in interface 22 is provided with a first locking block 25, a second locking block 26 and a third locking block 27. The first locking block 25 and the second locking block 26 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the plug-in interface 22, and the third locking block 27 is located on the rear side of the plug-in interface 22.

[0041] The first locking block 25 is installed on the left inner wall of the connector 22, and the second locking block 26 is symmetrically installed on the right inner wall of the connector 22. The third locking block 27 is installed at the center of the rear inner wall of the connector 22. This size and shape design ensures that the locking blocks have sufficient clamping force on the connector of the electronic device bracket 1 without taking up too much space in the connector 22 and affecting the insertion operation. The first locking block 25, the second locking block 26, and the third locking block 27 can all be fixed to the corresponding positions of the connector 22 with screws.

[0042] The connector of the electronic device bracket 1 is secured from three directions by the first locking block 25, the second locking block 26, and the third locking block 27, enhancing the stability of the connection. Even during intense gameplay, such as rapid shaking of the game control components, the connector will not easily detach from the connector 22. Furthermore, during the connection process, the player does not need to manually adjust the angle of the connector; simply aligning it roughly with the connector 22 will guide the connector to the correct position. This makes the assembly of the electronic device bracket 1 and the game button controller 2 more convenient and efficient, improving the user experience.

[0043] In one embodiment, the game button controller 2 includes a base plate 21, a first locking block 25, a second locking block 26 and a third locking block 27 fixed to the upper surface of the base plate 21. The first locking block 25 has a first notch 251, which forms a first latch with the upper surface of the base plate 21. The second locking block 26 has a second notch 261, which forms a second latch with the upper surface of the base plate 21. The third locking block 27 has a third notch 271, which forms a third latch with the upper surface of the base plate 21.

[0044] When the connector of the electronic device bracket 1 is inserted into the connector 22 of the game button controller 2, the left side of the connector aligns with the first latch. As the insertion proceeds, the left side of the connector slides into the first latch. Similarly, the right side of the connector slides into the second latch, and the rear side of the connector slides into the third latch.

[0045] It should be noted that, in terms of size design, the first latch is smaller than the corresponding part on the left side of the connector. When the connector is inserted, the corresponding part of the connector needs to be forced into the first latch. Due to the elasticity of the material (e.g., plastic), the first latch 25 and the base plate 21 will undergo slight elastic deformation when compressed, thus tightly holding the connector. Similar to the first latch, the second latch is smaller than the corresponding part on the right side of the connector. The third latch is also designed to be smaller than the corresponding part on the rear side of the connector.

[0046] In one embodiment, the electronic device bracket 1 includes a base 11, support columns 12, and a frame 13, with a portion of the base 11 forming a connector. The base 11 supports and stabilizes the entire bracket, providing a surface for placement and ensuring its balance. Two support columns 12 connect the base 11 to the upper structure, raising and supporting the upper components and determining the bracket's height. The frame 13, located at the top, is a square frame used to place or fix the electronic device 3 and is a crucial component supporting the electronic device 3.

[0047] The portion of the base 11 closest to the game button controller 2 constitutes the connector. Assuming the connector is defined as one-third of the length of the base 11 closest to one end, its shape must precisely match the connector interface 22 of the game button controller 2. If the connector interface 22 is rectangular, the connector should also be designed as rectangular.

[0048] In one embodiment, the base 11 is a plate-like structure. During installation, the base 11 is horizontally inserted into the insertion interface 22, and then the base 11 is pushed horizontally. Because the base 11 is a plate-like structure, its horizontal surface and regular shape make it easy to control the direction during insertion. When the base 11 is fully inserted, the first, second, and third latches form an interference fit with the insertion part of the base 11, thereby firmly fixing the base 11 in the insertion interface 22.

[0049] The plate-like structure of the base 11 and its horizontal plug-in design make the installation process very simple and intuitive. Ordinary users can quickly connect the electronic device bracket 1 to the game button controller 2 by simply pushing it horizontally without any tools.

[0050] In one embodiment, the bottom of the base 11 is provided with an anti-slip pad.

[0051] The material of the anti-slip mat needs to have good anti-slip performance and durability. Common materials include rubber, because its surface friction and elasticity can effectively increase the friction between the base 11 and the surface on which it is placed.

[0052] The anti-slip pad significantly increases the friction between the base 11 and the surface it rests on, preventing the game control components from sliding during use. Even when the player vigorously operates the game button controller 2, the components will remain in place despite strong shaking or pushing. For example, when playing racing games, where players frequently and rapidly press buttons to simulate acceleration and steering, the game control components with the anti-slip pad base 11 can be stably placed on the table without shifting due to vibrations, ensuring smooth gameplay.

[0053] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model embodiment also provides a game control device, including the above-mentioned game control components and electronic device 3. The electronic device 3 is placed on the electronic device bracket 1 and is communicatively connected to the game button controller 2.

[0054] The first data interface 23 on the game button controller 2 can use a common Type-C interface, which has the advantages of fast transmission speed and support for reversible insertion. The first data interface 23 is located on the side of the controller, such as the front side, for easy connection of data cables.

[0055] Electronic device 3 can be a mobile phone, tablet computer, etc. When using it, players only need to correctly insert the data cable into the corresponding interface of the game button controller 2 and electronic device 3 to achieve wired communication connection.

[0056] The second data interface 24 can also use a Type-C interface, and should be distinguished from the first data interface 23 to avoid confusion. The second data interface 24 is located on the front side of the game button controller 2, and the connector 22 is located between the first data interface 23 and the second data interface 24.

[0057] The game foot controller 4 is shaped like a car accelerator pedal, making it convenient for players to operate with their feet. Its casing is made of sturdy plastic, and it houses control components such as pressure sensors. For connection, a data cable is used, with one end having a Type-C plug (matching the second data interface 24 of the game button controller 2) and the other end an adapter for the game foot controller 4's interface. When the player presses the game foot controller 4, the pressure sensor converts the pressure signal into an electrical signal, which is transmitted to the game button controller 2 via the data cable. The game button controller 2 then integrates the signals and transmits them to the electronic device 3.

[0058] The overall workflow is as follows: When the player presses the buttons on the game button controller 2, the electrical signals generated by the button presses are captured by the controller's internal circuitry. After processing, the signals are transmitted to the electronic device 3 via the first data interface 23 and a data cable. The electronic device 3 executes corresponding game operations based on the received signals, such as controlling the game character's movement or attacks. Simultaneously, when the player presses the game foot controller 4, the signal generated by the foot press is transmitted to the game button controller 2 via the second data interface 24. The game button controller 2 integrates this signal with the button signals and sends them together to the electronic device 3, enabling richer game operations. For example, in a racing game, buttons control direction, while the foot controller controls acceleration or braking.

[0059] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various equivalent modifications or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, and these modifications or substitutions should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
