Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic equipment technology, and in particular to a foot pedal signal output device and a gaming device. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional game control devices primarily rely on handheld controllers or keyboards, a method with certain limitations. Especially in game scenarios requiring simultaneous multi-directional control, such as racing, shooting, or sports games, players often need to operate multiple buttons at the same time. This not only increases the difficulty of operation but also reduces the realism of the gaming experience. Although pedal controllers specifically designed for racing games exist, their functionality is limited, only allowing for accelerator and brake control, failing to meet the needs of diverse game scenarios. Furthermore, existing pedal controllers have fixed structures, preventing flexible configuration of button functions and restricting their application in other game genres.

[0003] Regarding the control methods for keyboard key signal output, related technologies are mainly limited to manual operation, lacking a control device that can achieve multi-key signal output through foot movements. Although theoretically, similar functions can be achieved by modifying existing equipment, such modifications often result in problems such as structural complexity and inconvenience in operation.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0024] Regarding the control methods for keyboard key signal output, related technologies are mainly limited to manual operation, lacking a control device that can achieve multi-key signal output through foot movements. Although theoretically, similar functions can be achieved by modifying existing equipment, such modifications often result in problems such as structural complexity and inconvenience in operation.

[0025] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a foot-operated signal output device and a gaming device that can simultaneously control multiple button modules via foot, enabling multi-signal output and improving operational flexibility.

[0026] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a foot-operated signal output device shown in an embodiment of this application.

[0028] See Figures 1-5 A foot-operated signal output device includes: a base 1, with a first button module 2 and a second button module 3 symmetrically arranged on one side inside the base 1; a through hole 101 at the top of the base 1, with a movable block 102 on the through hole 101; one end of the movable block 102 is inserted into the base 1, and the movable block 102 is used to move on the through hole 101 and abut against the first button module 2 or the second button module 3; a pedal 4, with a rotating part 5 at the middle of the bottom end of the pedal 4, the pedal 4 is inserted into the base 1 through the rotating part 5, and one side of the bottom end of the pedal 4 is connected to the movable block 102; the rotating part 5 is used to control the rotation of the pedal 4; a third button module 6, which is located at the rear end inside the pedal 4; and a fourth button module 7, which is located at the front end inside the pedal 4.

[0029] Specifically, the rotating part 5 refers to the rotating mechanism connecting the pedal 4 and the base 1. It can be implemented using a rotating shaft structure with a bearing 501, allowing the pedal 4 to tilt back and forth around this axis. The through hole 101 refers to the opening area on the top of the base 1 for the movable block 102 to move. Its width can be set slightly larger than the size of the insertion part of the movable block 102, for example, the width of the through hole 101 is 2-5 mm wider than the movable block 102, ensuring that the movable block 102 has space for left and right translation. The third button module 6 and the fourth button module 7 refer to the trigger units located inside the front and rear ends of the pedal 4, respectively. They can use microswitches in conjunction with a spring reset structure. A metal shaft can also be provided between the third button module 6 and the fourth button module 7, providing the pedal 4 with rebound pressure to reset it.

[0030] Specifically, when the user steps on the front end of pedal 4, the front end of pedal 4 can trigger the fourth button module 7, and when the user steps on the rear end of pedal 4, the rear end of pedal 4 can trigger the third button module 6. When the user's foot is placed on pedal 4, the foot moves left and right at the rear end of pedal 4, causing the moving block 102 to slide left and right within the through hole 101. The bottom of the moving block 102 can abut against the first button module 2 or the second button module 3 to trigger the first button module 2 or the second button module 3. The first button module 2, the second button module 3, the third button module 6, and the fourth button module 7 can generate electrical signals.

[0031] In related technologies, traditional racing pedals control continuous variable signals through a single axial downward stroke, while this device decomposes foot movements into four independent trigger directions, converting complex movements into multi-channel discrete signal outputs through a mechanical linkage structure. Existing technologies cannot achieve independent detection of left-right translation and forward-backward tilting movements, nor can they map movements in different directions to custom button commands.

[0032] In one possible implementation, the first button module 2 includes a first button bracket 201 and a first button 202, and the second button module 3 includes a second button bracket 301 and a second button 302. The first button bracket 201 and the second button bracket 202 are both fixedly disposed inside the base 1. The first button 202 is disposed on the left first button bracket 201, and the second button 302 is disposed on the second button bracket 301. The first button 202 and the second button 302 are respectively located on both sides of the movable block 102.

[0033] Specifically, the first button bracket 201 refers to a rigid structure used to fix and support the first button 202. For example, it can be implemented using an L-shaped buckle made of metal or engineering plastic, and its function is to provide a stable installation position for the first button 202. The second button bracket 301 refers to a support structure symmetrically arranged with the first button bracket 201. For example, it can be implemented using an injection molding process to make a frame with positioning grooves, and its function is to ensure that the second button 302 and the moving block 102 maintain precise alignment. The first button 202 and the second button 302 refer to electronic switching elements that can be triggered by the moving block 102. For example, they can be implemented using microswitches or thin-film contact sensors, and their function is to convert mechanical displacement into electrical signal output. This solution sets up separate button modules to form a symmetrical mechanical triggering structure inside the base 1, so that sliding movements in the left and right directions can independently trigger the corresponding electronic signals, realizing multi-directional control functions.

[0034] Specifically, when the movable block 102 moves laterally within the through hole 101, its end inserted into the base 1 shifts to the left or right, contacting the first button 202 or the second button 302 respectively. Since the first button bracket 201 and the second button bracket 301 are fixed to the left and right sides inside the base 1 respectively, the left and right movement range of the movable block 102 is limited to between the two buttons. For example, when the movable block 102 slides to the left, its bottom makes physical contact with the first button 202 on the first button bracket 201, triggering the button to generate an electrical signal; when the movable block 102 slides to the right, it triggers the second button 302 on the second button bracket 301. This symmetrical arrangement ensures that both left and right pedaling actions generate clear signal feedback.

[0035] In one possible implementation, the width of the through hole 101 is greater than the width of the insertion portion of the moving block 102.

[0036] Specifically, the insertion part of the movable block 102 and the through hole 101 form a clearance fit. When the pedal 4 is rotated under force, the movable block 102 can slide laterally along the width direction of the through hole 101. The difference in size between the through hole 101 and the insertion part provides a horizontal displacement margin for the movable block 102, ensuring that the stroke of the contact action is not limited by the structure.

[0037] In one possible implementation, the base 1 is further provided with a first spring 103 and a fixing block 104. The fixing block 104 is disposed on the bottom inside the base 1, and the first spring 103 is disposed on the fixing block 104. The fixing block 104 is used to fix the first spring 103. The first spring 103 is located between the first button bracket 201 and the second button bracket 301, and the middle part of the first spring 103 is connected to the bottom of the moving block 102.

[0038] Specifically, the first spring 103 refers to an elastic support component disposed inside the base 1, which can be implemented as a helical spring. Its two ends are respectively limited and constrained by the first button bracket 201 and the second button bracket 301, and its middle part is connected to the bottom of the moving block 102 to provide restoring force after the moving block 102 is offset. The fixed block 104 refers to a support structure fixed to the bottom of the base 1, which can be implemented as a metal block with a slot. Its function is to constrain the bottom end face of the first spring 103 in a fixed position to prevent the spring from lateral displacement when compressed.

[0039] Specifically, when the pedal 4 is not rotating, the moving block 102 is in the middle position supported by the first spring 103. At this time, neither the first button 202 nor the second button 302 is triggered. When the pedal 4 rotates, the moving block 102 drives the first spring 103 to compress towards the first button bracket 201 or the second button bracket 301 until it contacts and triggers the first button 202 or the second button 302. After the pedal 4 is released, the first spring 103 pushes the moving block 102 back to the middle position through its elastic restoring force. At this time, the spring deformation is zero, which can absorb the impact force through the elastic deformation of the spring during the rotation of the pedal 4, avoiding rigid collision between the moving block 102 and the button module. At the same time, it ensures that the moving block 102 automatically returns to the initial position after the triggering action is completed. The cooperation between the spring and the fixed block 104 makes the triggering stroke controllable, preventing damage to the button module due to excessive pressing. This structure improves the operational stability while ensuring bidirectional triggering function.

[0040] In one possible implementation, a bearing 501 is provided on the rotating part 5, and the rotating part 5 is inserted into the base 1 through the bearing 501.

[0041] Specifically, bearing 501 refers to a mechanical component used to reduce rotational friction. It can be implemented using a rolling bearing 501. The installation of bearing 501 reduces the resistance during pedal 4 rotation. Pressure plates can be provided on the upper and lower sides of bearing 501. "Inserted into the base 1" means that bearing 501 is embedded in the structure inside the base 1. This can be achieved through shaft hole fitting or snap-fit ​​fixing. For example, the outer ring of bearing 501 forms an interference fit with the shaft hole of base 1 to ensure a stable connection between the rotating part 5 and the base 1. Bearing 501 is fixedly installed on the shaft end of the rotating part 5. A corresponding shaft hole is provided in the base 1, and bearing 501, after being embedded in the shaft hole, forms a rotational support structure. When pedal 4 is subjected to external force, bearing 501 reduces the direct friction between the rotating part 5 and the base 1 through rolling or sliding, allowing pedal 4 to complete the rotational action with less resistance. The rolling elements or lubricating layer of bearing 501 transforms mechanical contact into low-friction motion, thereby improving the smoothness and response speed of operation.

[0042] In one possible implementation, the third button module 6 includes a third button bracket 601, a third button 602, and a second spring 603. The third button bracket 601 is fixedly disposed at the rear end inside the pedal 4, the third button 602 is disposed on the third button bracket 601, and the second spring 603 is disposed on the third button bracket 601. One side of the second spring 603 is connected to the third button bracket 601, and the other side of the second spring 603 is connected to the top inside the pedal 4.

[0043] Specifically, the third button bracket 601 refers to the support structure used to fix the third button 602, which can be made by stamping or injection molding of metal sheet, and its function is to provide a stable mounting position for the third button 602. The third button 602 refers to a trigger element that can generate an electrical signal output, which can be implemented by a micro switch or membrane switch, and its function is to convert the foot pedal action into an electrical signal. The second spring 603 refers to an elastic component that provides a return force, which can be implemented by a coil spring or leaf spring, and its function is to maintain the initial position of the third button 602 when the pedal 4 is not pressed.

[0044] Specifically, when the rear end of pedal 4 is pressed, the top of pedal 4 deforms downward and compresses the second spring 603. At this time, the third button bracket 601 drives the third button 602 to contact the top of pedal 4, triggering a signal output. After the pressure is released, the second spring 603 generates a reverse elastic force, causing pedal 4 to return to its initial position. The fixed setting of the third button bracket 601 prevents the button from shifting during repeated pressing, and the double-sided connection design of the second spring 603 ensures the stability of the pedal 4's rebound trajectory, making the trigger action's stroke controllable and the reset precise, avoiding signal mis-touch or response delay issues.

[0045] In one possible implementation, the fourth button module 7 includes a fourth button bracket 701, a fourth button 702, and a third spring 703. The fourth button bracket 701 is fixedly disposed at the front end inside the pedal 4, the fourth button 702 is disposed on the fourth button bracket 701, and the third spring 703 is disposed on the fourth button bracket 701. One side of the third spring 703 is connected to the fourth button bracket 701, and the other side of the third spring 703 is connected to the top inside the pedal 4.

[0046] Specifically, the fourth button bracket 701 refers to the support structure used to fix the fourth button 702, which can be implemented using a metal stamping part or an injection molded part, and is configured to form a rigid connection with the inner front end of the pedal 4. The fourth button 702 refers to a mechanical switching element that triggers an electrical signal, which can be implemented using a micro switch or a membrane switch, and is installed in a preset position on the fourth button bracket 701 to respond to the pressing action of the pedal 4. The third spring 703 refers to a mechanical element that provides elastic support, which can be implemented using a coil spring or a leaf spring, and forms a preload by connecting the fourth button bracket 701 and the top of the pedal 4, which is used to buffer the impact force when the front end of the pedal 4 is pressed and to assist in the reset after the pressure is released.

[0047] Specifically, when the user applies a pressing action to the front end of pedal 4, the front area inside pedal 4 displaces downward. At this time, the third spring 703 is compressed and pushes the fourth button bracket 701, causing the fourth button 702 to contact the contact point, thereby triggering the preset keyboard signal output. After the pressure is released, the elastic restoring force of the third spring 703 drives the fourth button bracket 701 back to its initial position, causing the fourth button 702 to separate from the contact point and stop the signal output. This structure, through the pre-compression and reset functions of the spring, ensures the sensitivity of the front-end triggering action and the automatic reset capability after operation.

[0048] In one possible implementation, anti-slip pads 8 are provided at both the front and rear ends of the surface of the pedal 4.

[0049] Specifically, the anti-slip pad 8 refers to a friction-enhancing structure covering the operating surface of the pedal 4. It can be made of rubber, silicone, or a polymer material with raised texture, and is fixed to the surface of the pedal 4 by adhesive bonding or embedded installation. This structure generates frictional resistance when pressure is applied by the foot, preventing the foot from slipping during operation.

[0050] In one possible implementation, a signal connection interface is provided on one side of the base 1, which can receive signals, output signals, and power the foot pedal signal output device.

[0051] This application discloses a foot-operated signal output device, comprising: a base 1, with a first button module 2 and a second button module 3 symmetrically arranged on one side inside the base 1; a through hole 101 at the top of the base 1, with a movable block 102 disposed on the through hole 101; one end of the movable block 102 being inserted into the base 1, and the movable block 102 being used to move on the through hole 101 and abut against the first button module 2 or the second button module 3; a pedal 4, with a rotating part 5 disposed in the middle of the bottom end of the pedal 4, the pedal 4 being inserted into the base 1 through the rotating part 5, one side of the bottom end of the pedal 4 being connected to the movable block 102, and the rotating part 5 being used to control the rotation of the pedal 4; a third button module 6, disposed at the rear end inside the pedal 4; and a fourth button module 7, disposed at the front end inside the pedal 4. This device allows for simultaneous control of multiple button modules by foot, enabling multi-signal output, thus achieving control in four directions (forward, backward, left, and right), and allowing for free configuration of button functions, improving operational flexibility and practicality.

[0052] Working principle: When the user presses pedal 4, pressing at the front triggers the fourth button module 7, and pressing at the rear triggers the third button module 6. Simultaneously, the user can rotate pedal 4, causing the rotating part 5 to rotate pedal 4 around its axis. The moving block 102 moves laterally along the through hole 101 and contacts the first button module 2 or the second button module 3. The electrical signals generated by each button module are mapped to keyboard key commands. For example, the first button module 2 can be defined as the left directional button, the second button module 3 as the right directional button, the third button module 6 as the jump button, and the fourth button 7 as the fire button. In racing games, moving pedal 4 left and right simulates steering, and tilting pedal 4 forward and backward triggers acceleration or braking functions respectively. In shooting games, changes in the tilt angle of pedal 4 can be linked to weapon switching or reloading actions.

[0053] This application also provides a gaming device that includes the foot pedal signal output device described above.

[0054] Specifically, gaming devices can refer to electronic devices that enable human-computer interaction through external input devices. These devices can be personal computers, game consoles, or mobile terminals. They receive action signals from foot pedal signal output devices through data interfaces and execute preset operations.

[0055] Specifically, the base 1 of the foot-operated signal output device contains a first button module 2 and a second button module 3, located on either side of the movable block 102. The movable block 102 rotates laterally with the pedal 4 via a connecting structure at the bottom of the pedal 4, triggering the corresponding button module to generate a signal. The pedal 4 is rotatably connected to the base 1 via a rotating part 5, and a third button module 6 and a fourth button module 7 are respectively located at its front and rear ends. When the pedal 4 tilts forward or backward, the corresponding button is triggered. The signal output device connects to the gaming device via a wired or wireless communication interface (e.g., a USB interface or a Bluetooth module), converting the button trigger signals into custom keyboard key commands. For example, rotating the pedal 4 to the left triggers the first button module 2 to generate a "left direction key" signal, and tilting it forward triggers the fourth button module 7 to generate a "spacebar" signal.

[0056] In related technologies, traditional racing game pedals 4 only support linear control in a single direction (such as accelerator and brake), and the button functions are fixed and cannot be customized. This solution, however, achieves four-axis control through a multi-directional mechanical linkage structure, supporting the mapping of pedal 4 movements in different directions to any keyboard key. For example, in shooting games, tilting pedal 4 to the left maps to a "dodge" action, and tilting it forward maps to a "reload" action. Furthermore, the combined structure of the rotating part 5 and the moving block 102 allows a single pedal 4 to trigger multiple independent signals simultaneously. For example, in sports games, left and right rotation controls the character's movement direction, while pressing the front of pedal 4 triggers a jump action.

[0057] This application achieves flexible binding between foot pedal operation and keyboard keys, adapting to the control needs of various game scenarios. The multi-directional triggering mechanism of the foot pedal signal output device improves the versatility and precision of operation, the combination design of the anti-slip plate 8 and the spring structure enhances the stability of use, and the bearing 501 structure of the rotating part 5 reduces fatigue during long-term operation.
