[0030] Please refer to Figures 1-7This utility model provides a portable detachable game controller grip 100, including a handheld game console 110, a grip body 120, a buckle part 130, and a flange 140. The handheld game console 110 includes a display 111 and an input device 112. The input device 112 is magnetically and detachably connected to both sides of the display 111, and a gap 1111 is formed between the display 111 and the input device 112. The grip body 120 is detachably connected to the input device 112. The latching part 130 is integrally formed with the grip body 120, and the latching part 130 extends outward from one end of the grip body 120. The input device 112 is provided with a spring button 1121, and the latching part 130 is fastened to the spring button 1121. The flange 140 is integrally formed with the grip body 120, and the flange 140 protrudes from the other end of the grip body 120 toward the latching part 130. The flange 140 is engaged in the gap 1111 so that the grip body 120 is fastened to the input device 112. In specific applications, there is a problem of uncomfortable grip during gameplay in handheld game console 110 mode (such as Nintendo's Switch 2 game console). Existing grips are either top and bottom closed, affecting the operation travel of the buttons, or the left and right grips are adjacent, affecting the heat dissipation of the display 111. In particular, the input device 112 in the Switch 2 game console can be separated from the display 111 and used as a mouse, which makes it difficult for the grips currently on the market to meet the actual needs. This solution improves the grip body by... The two ends of the grip 120 form a snap-fit ​​portion 130 and a flange 140, respectively. When the snap-fit ​​portion 130 is engaged with the elastic button 1121, and the flange 140 is engaged in the gap 1111, the grip 120 is engaged with the input device 112. This allows the input device 112 to be attached to the grip 120 even when it is removed from the display 111, providing a separate grip for the gamepad 110. This makes the operation of the input device 112 more convenient, especially when playing motion-sensing games. The grip 120 provides a good user experience. The grip 120 provides a comfortable grip while protecting the input device 112 from accidental drops. It also allows the game controller 110 with the grip attached to it to be removed from the main body of the game console without disassembling the grip. Alternatively, the grip 120 can typically be removed from the input device 112 by pressing the spring-loaded button 1121, allowing it to be detached from one side of the input device 112. It can also be removed directly by manually utilizing the shared elasticity of the latches and the grip 120. During installation... The grip 120 is securely mounted on the input device 112 by snapping the snap-fit ​​part 130 onto the elastic button 1121 and the flange 140. Since the grip 120 is only mounted on one side of the input device 112, it can effectively avoid affecting the heat dissipation of the display 111 and avoid obstructing the travel of the buttons on the input device 112. It is worth noting that the flange 140 is designed to use the gap 1111 formed between the display 111 and the input device 112 on the Switch 2 game console itself for engagement.

[0031] In one possible implementation, the height h of the flange 140 is 0.3-7 mm, and the thickness d of the flange 140 is 0.2-3 mm. In specific applications, to avoid the flange 140 being ineffective and causing one end of the grip 120 to become loose relative to the input device 112, the height and thickness parameters of the flange 140 cannot be too small. However, it is also necessary to avoid the height and thickness parameters of the flange 140 being too large, which could cause interference with the gap 1111 or the input device 112. Therefore, the height h of the flange 140 is chosen to be 0.3-7 mm, and the thickness d of the flange 140 is chosen to be 0.2-3 mm.

[0032] In one possible implementation, the height h of the flange 140 is 1-3.5 mm, and the thickness d of the flange 140 is 0.5-1.6 mm. In specific applications, preferably, the height h of the flange 140 is 1-3.5 mm, and the thickness d of the flange 140 is 0.5-1.6 mm.

[0033] In one possible implementation, the latching part 130 includes an extension post 131 and a latching body 132 connected to one end of the extension post 131. The other end of the extension post 131 is connected to the grip body 120. The latching body 132 is fastened to one side of the elastic button 1121, and the contact length l between the latching body 132 and the elastic button 1121 exceeds 0.5 mm. In specific applications, since the latching part 130 includes an extension post 131 and a latching body 132 connected to one end of the extension post 131, when the latching body 132 is fastened to one side of the elastic button 1121, the extension post 131 undergoes elastic deformation relative to the grip body 120, preventing the extension post 131 from breaking and thus extending the service life of the latching part 130. At the same time, the contact length l between the latching body 132 and the elastic button 1121 must exceed 0.5 mm to ensure that the latching part 130 is fastened to the elastic button 1121.

[0034] In one possible implementation, the length l of contact between the card body 132 and the elastic button 1121 exceeds 1.5 mm. In specific applications, to improve the reliability of the latch 130 engaging with the elastic button 1121, it is preferable that the length l of contact between the card body 132 and the elastic button 1121 exceeds 1.5 mm.

[0035] In one possible implementation, a slot 1311 is formed at the connection between the extension post 131 and the gripping body 120. In specific applications, in order to improve the elastic deformation capability of the extension post 131, a slot 1311 is provided at the connection between the extension post 131 and the gripping body 120. The slot 1311 can be used to buffer the stress concentration at the end of the extension post 131.

[0036] In one possible implementation, the latching part 130 includes an extension post 131 and a latch (not shown) connected to one end of the extension post 131. The other end of the extension post 131 is connected to the grip body 120, and the latch engages with at least three sides of the resilient button 1121. In specific applications, in addition to the elastic contact of the latching body 132, the latching part 130 can also be locked by providing a latch at one end of the extension post 131, with the latch engaging with at least three sides of the resilient button 1121, thereby firmly fixing the latching part 130 to the resilient button 1121.

[0037] In one possible implementation, the latch is movably connected to one end of the extension post 131. In specific applications, to improve the convenience of the latch 130, the latch can be movably connected to one end of the extension post 131. The movable connection can be a damped rotary connection or a joint connection, making it easier for the latch 130 to lock onto the elastic button 1121.

[0038] In one possible implementation, the latching part 130 includes an extension post 131 and a ring (not shown) connected to one end of the extension post 131. The other end of the extension post 131 is connected to the grip body 120, and the ring is elastically fastened to the top edge of the input device 112. In specific applications, to enrich the variety of ways the latching part 130 is fastened to the input device 112, a ring can also be provided at one end of the extension post 131, with the ring elastically fastened to the top edge of the input device 112, thereby making the latching part 130 firmly fixed to the input device 112.

[0039] In one possible implementation, the grip body 120 includes a connecting frame 121 and a grip portion 122. The connecting frame 121 is detachably connected to the input device 112, and the grip portion 122 is detachably connected to the connecting frame 121. In specific applications, to facilitate the replacement of the grip portion 122 for different users and improve the user's grip experience, the grip body 120 includes a connecting frame 121 and a grip portion 122. The connecting frame 121 is detachably connected to the input device 112, and the grip portion 122 is detachably connected to the connecting frame 121, thereby allowing for quick replacement of the grip portion 122 with different ergonomic features according to user preferences.

[0040] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
