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, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the stated features. In the description of this application, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0031] The following detailed description of some embodiments of this application is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, this application provides a flip adjustment mechanism for a game controller. The controller body 100 includes a controller face shell 10, a controller bottom shell 20, a cross-shaped directional pad module 30, a flip tray 40, and a flip adjustment mechanism 50. The cross-shaped directional pad module 30 is disposed in the middle of the flip tray 40, and the flip tray 40 is connected to the controller face shell 10. The cross-shaped directional pad module 30 and the flip tray 40 are connected through the flip adjustment mechanism 50. A support member 42 and a mounting post 44 are connected to the outer side of the flip tray 40, and a rotating hole 43 is provided in the middle of the support member 42. The flip adjustment mechanism 50 includes latching buttons 51 provided on both sides of the flip tray 40, and the latching... A latching block 52 and a trigger block 55 are integrally connected to the outer side of the key 51. An iron shaft 53 is provided in the middle of the latching key 51, and a spring 54 is wrapped around the outer side of the iron shaft 53. A rotating part 57 is provided at the bottom of the flip tray 40, and a cam block 59 is connected to the outer side of the rotating part 57. A rotating shaft 31 is connected to the outer side of the cross direction key module 30, and a compression cavity 33 is opened inside the rotating shaft 31. A positioning pin 34 is adapted to be connected inside the compression cavity 33. Two sets of rotating grooves 41 are opened at the upper end of the flip tray 40, and an auxiliary groove 45 adapted to the positioning pin 34 is opened on the inner side of one set of rotating grooves 41. A positioning groove 46 is opened inside the auxiliary groove 45.

[0033] After adopting the above technical solution, since the cross-shaped key module 30 is located inside the flip holder 40 and connected to the flip adjustment mechanism 50, when flipping the cross-shaped key module 30, the rotating part 57 can be rotated counterclockwise to drive the cam block 59 to squeeze and rotate along the inner side of the two sets of trigger blocks 55, so that the groove 510 disengages from the inside of the protrusion 56. Under the support of the iron shaft 53 and the spring 54, the two sets of latching keys 51 are rebounded, driving the two sets of latching blocks 52 to disengage from the two sets of positioning grooves 32 on both sides of the cross-shaped key module 30. At the same time, the iron shaft 53 rotates along the inside of the rotating hole 43, so that the cross-shaped key module... Release the clamping limit of 5 on 30, then the cross key module 30 can be rotated 90 degrees. Rotate along the inside of the rotating groove 41 via the rotating shaft 31, and at the same time drive the positioning pin 34 to rotate and squeeze along the inside of the positioning groove 46, so that it is separated from the inside of the positioning groove 46. Then, squeeze the positioning pin 34 along the inside of the compression chamber 33, and squeeze the end of the positioning pin 34 into the inside of the compression chamber 33. Then rotate along the auxiliary groove 45 until it rotates into the inside of another set of positioning grooves 46, and lock the positioning pin 34 into the inside, thereby positioning the cross key module 30, so as to facilitate the flipping and adjustment of the cross key module 30.

[0034] After the cross-shaped key module 30 is flipped and switched, the rotating part 57 is rotated clockwise, which drives the cam block 59 to press the trigger block 55, and the groove 510 on the outside of one set of cam blocks 59 is inserted into the inside of the protrusion 56. At this time, the latching key 51 drives the latching block 52 to be inserted into the inside of the positioning groove 32, and the spring 54 is compressed, so as to facilitate the flipping and adjustment operation of the cross-shaped key module 30.

[0035] It should be noted that the trigger block 55 is irregularly shaped and can be divided into two sections, one section close to the rotating part 57 and the other section away from the rotating part 57. The two sections are integrally formed. The edges of the trigger block 55 are rounded to facilitate the smooth operation of the cam block 59 after contact.

[0036] It should be noted that, according to the appendix Figure 7 As can be seen in the figure, E is the ABXY button module. During the operation of the game controller, the D-pad module 30 can be replaced with the ABXY button module for flip adjustment, which has high applicability. The component set in the middle of the flip tray 40 can be replaced with the D-pad module 30, the ABXY function button module (E) or other function button modules, and the flip adjustment component 50 maintains the same adjustment and fixing functions for different function button modules.

[0037] In an optional embodiment, the number of latching keys 51, latching blocks 52 and trigger blocks 55 are all in two sets and symmetrically distributed. One side of one set of trigger blocks 55 is integrally connected with a protrusion 56. The rotating part 57 and the cam block 59 are an integral structure, and the number of cam blocks 59 is in two sets and symmetrically distributed. The end of one set of cam blocks 59 is provided with a groove 510 that matches the protrusion 56, which facilitates the adjustment and rotation of the two sets of latching keys 51.

[0038] It should be noted that when the rotating part 57 drives the cam block 59 to rotate, it can squeeze the trigger block 55. When the trigger block 55 drives the latch key 51 and the latch block 52 to rotate to the end point, they can be positioned between the groove 510 and the protrusion 56 to avoid the elastic potential energy of the spring 54 from driving the trigger block 55 and the latch key 51 to reset. The latch block 52 can be firmly clamped on the outside of the positioning groove 32, which facilitates the subsequent operation of the cross direction key module 30.

[0039] In an optional embodiment, the rotating member 57 has an adapter hole 512 in the middle that is adapted to the mounting post 44. A screw 511 is adapted to the inside of the adapter hole 512, which facilitates the rotation of the rotating member 57 along the outside of the mounting post 44 through the adapter hole 512, thus ensuring the stability of the rotating member 57 during the rotation process.

[0040] In one optional embodiment, an adjustment switch post 58 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating member 57. The adjustment switch post 58 is an arc-shaped column structure, and the edges of the adjustment switch post 58 are all rounded. It can apply force during the rotation of the rotating member 57, and can drive the rotating member 57 to rotate counterclockwise and clockwise.

[0041] It should be noted that, since the adjustment switch post 58 is an arc-shaped column structure with rounded corners at the edges, wear and tear on the fingers after prolonged adjustment can be avoided, and the force-bearing area can be increased.

[0042] In one optional embodiment, cross-shaped key module 30 is equipped with cross-shaped key one and cross-shaped key two at its two ends respectively. A rotating shaft 31 is connected to the outside of cross-shaped key module 30. Positioning grooves 32 are provided on both sides of cross-shaped key module 30, and the positioning grooves 32 are rectangular structures. The two sets of cross-shaped keys can be combined together through cross-shaped key one and cross-shaped key two on the outside of cross-shaped key module 30 for convenient switching use.

[0043] In an optional embodiment, the top of the flip tray 40 is provided with two sets of rotating grooves 41 that are adapted to the rotating shaft 31. These grooves can support the rotating shaft 31 to rotate during the flip switching of the cross-shaped key module 30. The support member 42 and the flip tray 40 are an integral structure, which facilitates the positioning of the latch key 51. The latch key 51 can be clamped in the middle of the two sets of support members 42 to ensure its stability during adjustment. The rotating hole 43 passes through the middle of the support member 42 and is adapted to the iron shaft 53, which facilitates the angle adjustment operation of the latch key 51.

[0044] In one optional embodiment, the mounting post 44 and the flip tray 40 are an integral structure, and a reinforcing rib is installed at the connection between the outer side of the mounting post 44 and the rotating groove 41, and the bottom of the reinforcing rib is a horizontal structure.

[0045] It should be noted that, since the mounting post 44 is an integral structure and is provided with reinforcing ribs, the rotating part 57 can be fixed to the bottom of the mounting post 44 by screws 511. The bottom of the reinforcing rib is a horizontal structure, which makes it easy for the rotating part 57 to rotate along the outside of the mounting post 44 without shaking.
