[0044] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, this application relates to the technical field of game controller 12, specifically disclosing a game controller 12 grip 2, including a controller body 1 and a grip 2, with a connector 6 between the controller body 1 and the grip 2. The controller body 1 is movably connected to the grip 2 through the connector 6, for contacting or separating the controller body 1 and the grip 2 under external force. One of the grip 2 and the controller body 1 is provided with a locking member 3, and the other has a mating part 5. The locking member 3 moves relative to the mating part 5, for locking or unlocking the controller body 1 and the grip 2 when the grip 2 contacts the controller body 1. An elastic member 4 is provided between the controller body 1 and the grip 2, and the elastic member 4 is connected to the controller body 1 and the grip 2 respectively, for releasing elastic force when the controller body 1 and the grip 2 are unlocked, so as to separate the controller body 1 and the grip 2 under external force. This application achieves the locking and unlocking functions of the handle body 1 and the grip 2 through the cooperation of the locking part 3 and the mating part 5. Furthermore, the elastic part 4 is provided between the handle body 1 and the grip 2 so that when the handle body 1 and the grip 2 are locked, the handle body 1 and the grip 2 are close together and fit together, thereby improving the stability of the product. When the handle body 1 and the grip 2 are unlocked, the handle body 1 and the grip 2 are separated with a gap, so that the user can install protective covers or decorative covers on the handle body 1 or the grip 2 as needed, simplifying the operation and improving the flexibility of the product.

[0045] In this embodiment, as Figure 11 As shown, when the handle body 1 and the grip 2 are separated, the maximum separation distance between them is d.

[0046] like Figure 3-11As shown, the mating part 5 is located on the outer wall of the handle body 1. When the grip 2 contacts the handle body 1, the mating part 5 penetrates into the interior of the grip 2. The locking member 3 is disposed inside the grip 2. The locking member 3 has a latching part 31 on the side near the handle body 1, with the latching part 31 facing the mating part 5. It is used to latch with the mating part 5 to lock the handle body 1 and the grip 2, and to separate from the mating part 5 to unlock the handle body 1 and the grip 2. By placing the mating part 5 on the outer wall of the handle body 1, and having the mating part 5 penetrate into the interior of the grip 2 when it contacts the handle body 1, this application makes the overall structure more compact without increasing the volume of the handle 12, making it easier for players to hold and carry. At the same time, the locking member 3 is disposed inside the grip 2, with the latching part 31 facing the mating part 5. Players only need to operate the locking member 3 inside the grip 2 to latch or separate the latching part 31 from the mating part 5, realizing the locking and unlocking of the handle body 1 and the grip 2. The operation process is simple and intuitive.

[0047] like Figure 3-6 As shown, there are multiple latching portions 31, which are spaced apart along the edge of the locking member 3; there are also multiple mating portions 5, which correspond one-to-one with the multiple latching portions 31, for engaging and locking the handle body 1 and the grip 2. By providing multiple latching portions 31 and multiple mating portions 5, and by having multiple latching portions 31 and multiple mating portions 5 engage one-to-one, this application greatly enhances the locking strength between the handle body 1 and the grip 2, and improves the stability of the device.

[0048] In this application, as Figure 6 As shown, the multiple latching parts 31 include a first latching part, a second latching part, a third latching part, and a fourth latching part. The first latching part and the second latching part are located on both sides of the locking member 3, and the third latching part and the fourth latching part are located at the bottom edge of the locking member. The first latching part and the second latching part have the same structure and both include protrusions. The third latching part and the fourth latching part have the same structure and both include barbs.

[0049] like Figure 3-6 As shown, the handle 2 has a guide 21 inside, which cooperates with the locking member 3 to guide the movement of the locking member 3. This application uses the guide 21 to accurately guide the locking member 3, ensuring that the locking member 3 always moves along a predetermined direction and path, avoiding problems such as inaccurate or non-functional engagement caused by the movement or deviation of the locking member 3, and improving the reliability of the device.

[0050] like Figure 3-6As shown, the locking member 3 has a push protrusion 32 on the side away from the handle body 1. The push protrusion 32 exposes the outer shell of the grip 2. The design of the push protrusion 32 allows the player to easily operate the locking member 3 to move by simply pushing the protrusion with their fingers, without having to put their hand inside the grip 2 or use other tools, thus locking and unlocking the handle body 1 and the grip 2.

[0051] like Figure 8-11 As shown, a connector 6 is provided between the handle body 1 and the grip 2. The first end 61 of the connector is connected to the handle body 1, and the second end 62 of the connector passes through the interior of the grip 2. When the grip 2 is in contact with the handle body 1, there is a preset gap d between the second end 62 of the connector and the inner wall of the grip 2; when the grip 2 is separated from the handle body 1, the second end 62 of the connector abuts against the inner wall of the grip 2. Through the design of the connector 6, this application makes the connection between the grip 2 and the handle body 1 more stable, and when the grip 2 is separated from the handle body 1, the second end 62 of the connector abuts against the inner wall of the grip 2 to limit the separation distance between the grip 2 and the handle body 1, so that the separation distance is not too large, which reduces stability, nor too small, which makes it impossible to put on a protective cover.

[0052] This application discloses a game controller 12 grip 2, which also includes a protective cover (not shown in the figure). The protective cover is detachably connected to the grip 2, allowing players to easily install the protective cover on the grip 2. In daily use, the game controller 12 grip 2 will frequently come into contact with the player's hands, easily accumulating sweat and dirt, and may also experience wear and paint chipping due to accidental collisions and friction. The protective cover can effectively prevent sweat corrosion, reduce dirt adhesion, and cushion external impacts, preventing damage to the surface of the grip 2, greatly extending the service life of the grip 2, and reducing the cost for players to replace the game controller 12 due to grip 2 damage.

[0053] The thickness of the protective cover is no greater than the distance between the handle body 1 and the grip 2. This design keeps the thickness of the protective cover within a reasonable range. When installing and removing the protective cover, players do not need to spend too much effort or worry that the protective cover will be too thick and get stuck on the grip 2, which improves the portability of installation and removal.

[0054] In this embodiment, the thickness of the protective cover is the maximum thickness of the protective cover, and the distance between the handle body 1 and the grip 2 is the maximum distance d between the handle body 1 and the grip 2.

[0055] like Figure 8-11As shown, the grip 2 includes a first grip portion 21 and a second grip portion 22. The first grip portion 21 and the second grip portion 22 are located at both ends of the grip 2, and both the first grip portion 21 and the second grip portion 22 include arc-shaped surfaces. By designing the first grip portion 21 and the second grip portion 22 to be located at both ends of the grip 2 and to have arc-shaped surfaces, this application allows the palm to naturally conform to the arc-shaped surfaces, reducing hand muscle tension and fatigue.

[0056] like Figure 7 As shown, the main body of the game controller 12 includes a charging base 11 and two controllers 12. The two controllers 12 are detachably connected to both ends of the charging base 11. A charging connection structure 13 is provided at the connection point between the controllers 12 and the charging base 11, and the controllers 12 are electrically connected to the charging base 11 through the charging connection structure 13. This application greatly improves the overall battery life of the game controller 12 by setting up the charging base 11. Furthermore, the detachable connection between the controllers 12 and the charging base 11, and the provision of the charging connection structure 13 at the connection point, allows the controllers 12 to be used independently and can also be quickly connected to the charging base 11 for charging when needed, improving the flexibility of use.

[0057] In this embodiment, the charging connection structure 13 includes a charging connector and a charging interface. One of the charging connector and the charging interface is disposed on the handle 12, and the other is disposed on the charging base 11. When the charging connector and the charging interface are connected, an electrical connection is achieved to charge the handle.
