Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of game console accessories technology, specifically a magnetic grip adjustment mechanism for a game console protective case, which is used to achieve magnetic positioning and multi-position adjustment of the grip on the protective case to adapt to the grip needs of different users. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the game console market, game console protective cases and grip accessories have emerged, but existing products have obvious shortcomings in terms of grip position adjustment.

[0003] For example, the design patents CN304319157S ("Game Console Controller Cover (Switch Controller Cover)"), CN307042651S ("Game Console Grip Shell (Switch Controller Shell)"), CN307208012S ("Game Console Grip Protective Cover (Switch OLED Grip Shell)"), CN219462480U ("A Handheld Game Controller"), and CN220968052U ("A Multifunctional Extended Handle for Handheld Game Consoles"), and the corresponding products, all feature grips that, whether integrated or separate, have largely fixed positions. Integrated grips cannot be adjusted, and separate grips are simply disassembled and reassembled; they cannot flexibly change the grip's position relative to the protective shell according to different users' hand sizes, grip habits, or other individual needs. For example, users with smaller hands prefer the grip to be closer to the center of the casing for a more comfortable hold; users with larger hands prefer the grip to be further out. The existing fixed grip design makes it difficult to meet diverse and personalized grip needs, thus reducing the user experience.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention develops a magnetic grip adjustment mechanism for a game console protective case. Through innovative structural design, it enables multi-level grip adjustment to meet the needs of different users, enhancing grip comfort and personalized experience. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a magnetic grip adjustment mechanism for a game console protective case, which solves the problem that the grip position of existing game console protective cases is fixed and cannot adapt to the individual needs of different users, and realizes multi-level sliding adjustment of the grip, thereby improving the user's grip comfort and user experience.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a magnetic grip adjustment mechanism for a game console protective case, comprising a housing and a detachable grip, wherein the housing is provided with a first magnet, and the grip is provided with a second magnet attracted to the first magnet; the first magnet is a bar magnet or a row of spaced block magnets; when the first magnet is a bar magnet, the second magnet can slide along the length of the bar magnet and be attracted and fixed; when the first magnet is a row of block magnets, the second magnet can selectively attract and fix with block magnets at different positions, thereby achieving the switching of grip position.

[0007] Furthermore, when the first magnet is a bar magnet, one of the housing and the grip is provided with a row of gear slot grooves, and the other is provided with a gear slot protrusion that cooperates with the gear slot grooves. The grip is positioned by cooperating with the gear slot protrusion and the gear slot groove.

[0008] Furthermore, the housing is provided with a scale, and the grip is provided with an indicator mark. The indicator mark and the scale are used to mark the position of the grip, which facilitates the alignment and adjustment of the left and right grips.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:

[0010] 1. Convenient adjustment and simple operation: The grip is fixed and adjusted by magnetic attraction, without the need for complicated mechanical structure. Users can simply slide the grip to switch positions, which is labor-saving and responsive.

[0011] 2. Multi-position adaptation and strong compatibility: The bar magnet can achieve stepless sliding adjustment, and the row of block magnets can achieve precise positioning at multiple levels. Both forms can adapt to different palm sizes and grip habits, improving the user experience.

[0012] 3. Stable positioning and reliable structure: The magnetic attraction provides a stable adsorption force, and the combination of the gear groove and gear protrusion can further enhance the positioning effect, prevent the handle from accidentally slipping during use, and balance the flexibility of adjustment and the stability of use.
