[0021] The present invention proposes a joystick device 100.
[0022] Referring to Figures 1-5, in one embodiment of the present invention, the joystick device 100 includes a housing 1, a joystick mechanism 2, and an adjustment mechanism 3. Specifically, the joystick mechanism 2 includes a joystick body 21 and an elastic return assembly 22, the joystick body 21 being movably mounted in the housing 1, and the elastic return assembly 22 being connected to the joystick body 21 and the housing 1 and used to provide a return force to the joystick body 21. The adjustment mechanism 3 includes a joystick holder 31, a joystick head 32, and a position limiting member 33, the joystick holder 31 being mounted on the joystick body 21, and the joystick The joystick head 32 is rotatably mounted on the joystick holder 31 and contacts the elastic return assembly 22. The joystick head 32 rotates relative to the joystick holder 31 under the action of an external force, causing the joystick head 32 to displace on the joystick holder 31 and be used to adjust the return force of the elastic return assembly 22. A position limiting member 33 is provided on one of the joystick head 32 and the joystick holder 31, and a position limiting section 311 is provided on the other. The position limiting member 33 is used to limit the range of movement of the joystick head 32 by cooperating with the position limiting section 311 to restrict its position.
[0023] By installing it in this manner, the magnitude of the restoring force biased by the elastic return assembly 22 to the joystick body 21 can be quickly adjusted by rotating the joystick head 32. The position limiting member 33 cooperates with the position limiting section 311 to limit the range of movement of the joystick head 32 in the joystick holder 31, thereby controlling the restoring force to be adjusted within a preset range and avoiding excessive or insufficient restoring force of the joystick body 21. Furthermore, the position limiting section 311 contacts the position limiting member 33, preventing continuous rotation and displacement of the joystick head 32 relative to the joystick holder 31 and preventing the joystick head 32 from detaching from the joystick holder 31, which is advantageous for improving the stability of connection and operation control.
[0024] The restoring force provided by the elastic restoring assembly 22 is used to hold the joystick body 21 in a centered position. The elastic restoring assembly 22 is composed of a force transmission member and an elastic member such as a spring or elastic piece. When the joystick head 32 rotates on the joystick holder 31 and causes displacement, the force transmission member changes the amount of compression of the elastic member and further changes the magnitude of the restoring force, thereby giving the joystick device 100 a force adjustment function. Of course, the joystick head 32 may also be in direct contact with the elastic member, and it is sufficient that the restoring force that the joystick body 21 receives can be changed, and the specific configuration of the elastic restoring assembly 22 is not limited here.
[0025] In the adjustment mechanism 3, the joystick head 32 is rotatably connected to the joystick holder 31 so as to be able to generate displacement, and as long as displacement is generated when the joystick head 32 rotates on the joystick holder 31, the two can be connected using a screw connection structure or using a cooperative structure of a spiral rail and slider, and the specific configuration of the two is not limited here. Furthermore, the position limiting member 33 may be provided as a stopper pin, a locking block, etc., and the position limiting part 311 may be provided as a projection, a locking groove 21a, etc., and the specific configuration of the position limiting member 33 and the position limiting part 311 is not limited here.
[0026] As shown in Figures 2 to 4, in one embodiment, the adjustment mechanism 3 includes a first elastic member 34, the first elastic member 34 and the position limiting member 33 are provided on one of the joystick head 32 and the joystick holder 31, the position limiting member 33 is movably provided and connected to the first elastic member 34, and the first elastic member 34 is used to bias the position limiting member 33 so that the position limiting member 33 abuts against the other. The first elastic member 34 and the position limiting member 33 may be provided on the joystick head 32 or the joystick holder 31. In this embodiment, the first elastic member 34 and the position limiting member 33 are provided on the joystick head 32 as an example. The position limiting member 33 is movably provided on the joystick head 32 and connected to the first elastic member 34. The first elastic member 34 is in a compressed state and biases the position limiting member 33. This ensures that when the joystick head 32 rotates, the position limiting member 33 contacts the joystick holder 31 and continues to slide on the joystick holder 31, and that when the position limiting member 33 rotates to a preset position, it cooperates with the position limiting portion 311 on the joystick holder 31 to limit its position.
[0027] Furthermore, because the first elastic member 34 is in a compressed state, its reaction force enables the connection structure between the joystick head 32 and the joystick holder 31 to self-lock. This increases the external force required for the rotation of the joystick head 32 relative to the joystick head 31, reduces the risk of slippage of the joystick head 32, and is advantageous in maintaining the stability of the operation control and return force of the joystick mechanism 2. The first elastic member 34 can be an elastic material such as a spring or an elastic piece, and can be selected according to actual needs; it is not limited to this.
[0028] As shown in Figures 2 and 5, in one embodiment, guide surfaces 311a and stopper surfaces 311b are provided on opposite sides of the position limiting portion 311. The guide surface 311a is configured to guide the position limiting member 33 so that it slides beyond the position limiting portion 311 when the joystick head 32 rotates along the locking direction, and the stopper surface 311b is configured to prevent the position limiting member 33 from rotating along the unlocking direction. The position limiting portion 311 is a protruding block provided on the joystick holder 31, and guide surfaces 311a and stopper surfaces 311b are provided on both opposing sides of the protruding block. Specifically, the guide surface 311a is set as an inclined surface, and as the joystick head 32 rotates along the locking direction, it moves the joystick holder 31 and compresses the elastic return assembly 22, increasing the return force. The position limiting member 33 can slide on the guide surface 311a while rotating in accordance with the joystick head 32, and as the position limiting member 33 slides on the guide surface 311a, it compresses the first elastic member 34 until it slides beyond the position limiting portion 311, thereby allowing the joystick head 32 to continue rotating, and when the joystick head 32 has rotated multiple times and reached the limit position, the elastic return assembly 22 reaches its maximum return force.
[0029] Furthermore, if it is necessary to adjust the return force after the joystick head 32 has rotated to its limit position along the locking direction, the joystick head 32 can be rotated in the reverse direction along the unlocking direction to gradually reduce the return force of the elastic return assembly 22. When the joystick device 100 is actually used, the return force can be controlled within a reasonable range without requiring excessive adjustment, ensuring a comfortable operating feel. Based on this, the joystick head 32 continues to rotate along the unlocking direction to reduce the return force until the stopper surface 311b prevents the position limiting member 33 from continuing to rotate in the reverse direction, thereby adjusting the elastic return assembly 22 to its minimum return force. By providing the position limiting member 33, the first elastic member 34, and the position limiting section 311, the maximum and minimum return forces of the elastic return assembly 22 can be limited, thereby restricting the joystick head 32 from detaching from the joystick holder 31.
[0030] By installing the components in this manner, during assembly, the first elastic member 34 and the position limiting member 33 can be attached to the joystick head 32 first, and then the joystick head 32 can be attached to the joystick holder 31. The guide surface 311a can then guide the position limiting member 33 so that it slides beyond the position limiting portion 311, further improving the convenience of product assembly. Furthermore, the guide surface 311a may be set as an inclined surface or a smoothly changing curved surface so that the position limiting member 33 can move beyond the position limiting portion 311 when the joystick head 32 rotates along the locking direction. Correspondingly, the stopper surface 311b only needs to be able to prevent the joystick head 32 from rotating in the opposite direction, and is not specifically limited here.
[0031] As shown in Figures 2 to 5, in one embodiment, a position limiting member 33 and a first elastic member 34 are provided on the joystick head 32, an annular groove 31a is provided on the side of the joystick holder 31 away from the housing 1, a position limiting portion 311 is provided in the annular groove 31a, and one end of the position limiting member 33 away from the first elastic member 34 slidably abuts against the bottom wall of the annular groove 31a. As can be understood, after the joystick head 32 is mounted in a predetermined position on the joystick holder 31, at least a portion of the joystick head 32 is fitted into the annular groove 31a to conceal the position limiting member 33 and the position limiting portion 311, which is advantageous for improving the appearance of the joystick device 100, and also improves the stability of the connection structure because the shape of the annular groove 31a matches the shape of the joystick head 32.
[0032] As shown in Figure 4, in one embodiment, the joystick head 32 is provided with a mounting groove 322a, a first elastic member 34 is provided in the mounting groove 322a, a position limiting member 33 is provided so as to be movable along the longitudinal direction of the mounting groove 322a and abuts against the first elastic member 34, and at least a part of the position limiting member 33 is provided outside the mounting groove 322a and abuts against the bottom wall of the annular groove 31a. In this embodiment, the first elastic member 34 is provided as a spring, the position limiting member 33 is provided as a cylindrical retaining pin, the shape of the mounting groove 322a matches the shape of the position limiting member 33, the position limiting member 33 is provided inside the mounting groove 322a and is provided so as to be movable along its longitudinal direction, one end of the position limiting member 33 abuts against the joystick head 32 via the first elastic member 34, and the other end of the position limiting member 33 protrudes from the mounting groove 322a so as to abut against the bottom wall of the annular groove 31a. The simple structure of the retaining pin and spring reduces the risk of the position limiting member 33 becoming stuck, and facilitates the production and installation of the joystick device 100.
[0033] As shown in Figures 2 and 3, in one embodiment, the adjustment mechanism 3 further includes a sleeve 35, and the joystick head 32 includes an operating part 321 and a connecting part 322, the connecting part 322 being rotatably connected to the joystick holder 31, a mounting groove 322a provided on the outer wall of the connecting part 322, and the sleeve 35 being fitted onto the connecting part 322. The operating part 321 is used by the user to move the joystick body 21, the connecting part 322 is used to connect the joystick holder 31, and the mounting groove 322a is provided on the outer wall of the connecting part 322, allowing the position limiting member 33 and the first elastic member 34 to be inserted into the mounting groove 322a along the radial direction of the connecting part 322, thereby facilitating assembly, and furthermore, the sleeve 35 being fitted onto the connecting part 322 restricts the position of the position limiting member 33 and the first elastic member 34, preventing them from detaching from the joystick head 32.
[0034] As shown in Figures 2 and 6, in one embodiment, the elastic return assembly 22 includes an adjustment member 221 and a second elastic member 222. The adjustment member 221 is movably mounted on the joystick body 21, and the second elastic member 222 is connected between the adjustment member 221 and the housing 1. One end of the adjustment member 221, away from the second elastic member 222, abuts against the joystick head 32. In this embodiment, the joystick body 21 is provided with a through hole 21b, and the adjustment member 221 is mounted within the through hole 21b. One end of the adjustment member 221 abuts against the bottom wall of the housing 1 via the second elastic member 222, and the other end of the adjustment member 221 penetrates the upper end of the joystick body 21 and abuts against the joystick head 32. The joystick head 32 can change the amount of compression of the second elastic member 222 by moving the adjustment member 221, and thereby adjust the return force.
[0035] Furthermore, the second elastic member 222 may be provided as an elastic member such as a spring or elastic piece, and the adjustment member 221 may be provided as a rod-shaped member as long as it can adjust the amount of compression of the second elastic member 222. In some other embodiments, the elastic return assembly 22 further includes a contact member 223, and one end of the second elastic member 222 away from the adjustment member 221 contacts the housing 1 via the contact member 223, and at least a portion of the contact member 223 is provided in the through hole 21b, thereby increasing the stability of the elastic return assembly 22.

As can be understood, the direction of movement of both the adjustment member 221 and the joystick head 32 is set along the axial direction of the joystick body 21, so that all pushing and pulling forces are transmitted linearly and no bending moment or lateral force component is generated, resulting in small energy loss and high efficiency in the transmission process, the entire transmission mechanism is designed to be very compact and can be positioned along the axis of the joystick body 21, which is advantageous for miniaturizing the product.
[0037] As shown in Figures 2 to 6, in one embodiment, the joystick holder 31 is provided with a screw portion 312, the screw portion 312 is provided with a via hole 312b, and a male screw 312a is provided on the outer wall, and the joystick head 32 is provided with a female screw 322b that matches the male screw 312a, and the adjustment member 221 contacts the joystick head 32 via the via hole 312b. The joystick head 32 and the joystick holder 31 are connected by a screw, and its standardized structure is easy to manufacture, the joystick head 32 is displaced relative to the joystick holder 31 when rotated, and thereby the return force of the elastic return assembly 22 can be adjusted, the screw structure has good self-locking performance, and in some embodiments, the first elastic member 34 can cooperate with the position limiting member 33 to further improve the self-locking effect, the joystick head 32 can remain in a predetermined position even under different return forces and the stability of the return force can be ensured.
[0038] Furthermore, the joystick holder 31 is provided with a via hole 312b passing through it, the joystick body 21 is provided with a locking groove 21a, and the joystick holder 31 is provided with a snap-fit portion 313 that matches the locking groove 21a.
