Referring to fig. 1 to 3, a remote control 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a body 10 and an operating element 20. The remote controller 100 may be configured to manipulate a controlled object to respond to an operation instruction, the remote controller 100 may be connected to the controlled object in a wired or wireless manner, and the controlled object may be a movable platform, a game machine, an intelligent wearable device, or the like. The movable platform may be an unmanned aerial vehicle, an unmanned ship, etc., and the remote controller 100 may control the unmanned aerial vehicle to perform tasks such as flight, shooting, plant protection, detection, etc., or may control the unmanned vehicle to perform operations such as evasion, acceleration, shooting, etc. It is understood that the remote control 100 can also be used to operate any device communicatively coupled to the remote control 100, and is not limited thereto. The remote control 100 may also be a model, a toy, a gamepad, a cell phone gamepad.

The body 10 includes a first housing 11 and a second housing 12 movably connected to each other. The first housing 11 and the second housing 12 can be switched between an open state (fig. 2 and 3) and a closed state (fig. 1). The body 10 is formed with a receiving space 13. The operating member 20 is detachably mounted on the body 10. When the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are in the separated state, the housing space 13 is exposed from the body 10, and the operating element 20 can be detached from the body 10 and housed in the housing space 13 (see fig. 3). When the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are switched to the combined state, the operation element 20 is hidden in the body 10.

Specifically, with continued reference to fig. 1 to 3, the main body 10 may be used as a housing of the remote control 100. The circuit board, the processor, the power module, the communication module, the operation element 20, and other components of the remote control 100 can be mounted on the body 10, and the body 10 can also provide protection for the above components, for example, can be used for dust prevention, water prevention, and falling prevention. The user can hold the body 10 to hold the remote control 100, and the user can also hold the body 10 with the holding device to hold the remote control 100.

The body 10 includes a first housing 11 and a second housing 12. The first housing 11 is movably connected with the second housing 12. Specifically, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 may be movably connected in a manner that the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 can slide or rotate relatively. In the embodiment of the present application, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are slidable relative to each other. Specifically, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 may be switched between an extended state (as shown in fig. 2 to 4) and a collapsed state (as shown in fig. 1). In the combined state, the user can pull the first casing 11 or the second casing 12 to slide the two relatively far away and switch to the pulled-apart state; in the pulled-apart state, the user may push the first housing 11 or the second housing 12 to slide them relatively close to each other and switch to the incorporated state. In the embodiment of the present application, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 can slide left and right, and in other examples, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 can also slide up and down. The body 10 is formed with a receiving space 13, and the receiving space 13 can receive the operating element 20.

Referring to fig. 1 and 3, the operating element 20 is detachably mounted on the body 10. When the operating element 20 is disposed on the body 10, the operating element 20 may be at least partially exposed from the body 10, so that a user can input an operation command on the operating element 20 and control a controlled object. The operation element 20 may be a rocker, a button, a wheel, a lever, a touch device, and the like, and the number of the operation elements 20 may be single or multiple. The operating element 20 may be mounted on the first housing 11 or on the second housing 12, or on both the first housing 11 and the second housing 12. The embodiment of the present application is exemplified by taking the operating member 20 as a rocker. Taking the case that the user operates the unmanned aerial vehicle through the remote controller 100, the user can control the flight direction, the acceleration magnitude, the acceleration direction, and the like of the unmanned aerial vehicle by operating the joystick.

When the user does not need to use the operation element 20, for example, when the user does not need to use the operation element 20 for performing a certain operation or needs to carry the remote control 100, it is often desirable to detach the operation element 20 from the body 10 to reduce the overall size of the remote control 100 and to prevent the operation element 20 from being exposed and damaged. At this time, the user can pull the first housing 11 or the second housing 12 to open them, expose the accommodating space 13 from the body 10, and detach the operating element 20 from the body 10 to accommodate in the accommodating space 13; the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are then combined, and the main body 10 shields the accommodating space 13 again, so that the operating element 20 is hidden in the main body 10.

In summary, when the user does not need to use the operation element 20, the user can detach the operation element 20 from the body 10, so that the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are in the separated state and expose the accommodating space 13, the detached operation element 20 can be accommodated in the accommodating space 13, and then the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are in the combined state, so that the operation element 20 is hidden in the body 10, the outer size of the remote controller 100 is not increased, the remote controller 100 is easy to carry, and the operation element 20 is not easy to lose or be damaged.

Referring to fig. 1 and 5, in some embodiments, the first housing 11 includes a first sidewall 111, and the second housing 12 includes a second sidewall 121. In the pulled-apart state, the first sidewall 111 is separated from the second sidewall 121; in the merged state, the first sidewall 111 is combined with the second sidewall 121. The receiving space 13 includes a first space 131 and a second space 132. The first space 131 is formed on the first sidewall 111, and the second space 132 is formed on the second sidewall 121. The operating element 20 is partially housed in the first space 131, and the other part is housed in the second space 132.

The first space 131 may penetrate the first sidewall 111, the second space 132 may penetrate the second sidewall 121, the first space 131 is aligned with the second space 132, and the first space 131 and the second space 132 are communicated and form the receiving space 13 together in the combined state. After the operating element 20 is detached from the body 10 in the pulled-out state, a part of the operating element 20 can be accommodated in the first space 131, and the other part of the operating element extends out of the first space 131; after the switch to the merging state, the other portion extends into the second space 132, and the first sidewall 111 and the second sidewall 121 are combined, so that the user can not see the operating element 20 from the appearance. When it is necessary to remount the operating member 20 on the body 10, the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 can be switched to the pulled-apart state, in which the first space 131 is separated from the second space 132. When the user can grasp a part of the operating element 20 exposed from the receiving space 13 and take out the remaining part of the operating element 20 received in the first space 131 or the second space 132 while a part of the operating element 20 is still received in the second space 132 and another part of the operating element 20 is exposed from the receiving space 13, the user can take out the remaining part of the operating element 20 received in the first space 131 or the second space 132, and the user can take out the operating element 20.

Of course, in other embodiments, the storage space 13 may be formed entirely on the first side wall 111, or the storage space 13 may be formed entirely on the second side wall 121.

Referring to fig. 6 and 7, in some embodiments, the remote control 100 further includes a fixing member 30. The fixing member 30 is provided in the housing space 13, and when the operating element 20 is housed in the housing space 13, the operating element 20 is fixed to the fixing member 30. Specifically, the fixing member 30 may be disposed in the first space 131 or the second space 132. The operating element 20 is fixed on the fixing element 30, and the fixing element 30 can provide clamping force to the operating element 20, so that the operating element 20 is prevented from shaking in the accommodating space 13 to be damaged or generate abnormal noise when the operating element 20 is accommodated in the accommodating space 13.

In the embodiment shown in fig. 6 and 7, the first housing 11 includes a first upper shell 112 and a first lower shell 113. The first upper case 112 and the first lower case 113 are combined to form the receiving space 13, and the fixing member 30 is sandwiched between the first upper case 112 and the first lower case 113. Specifically, after the fixing member 30 is clamped between the first upper shell 112 and the first lower shell 113, the fixing member 30 is fixed relative to the first housing 11, and an additional positioning device is not required to be provided to fix the fixing member 30.

Referring to fig. 6 and 7, in some embodiments, the fixing member 30 is formed with a fixing hole 31. When the operating member 20 is fixed to the fixing member 30, the operating member 20 is at least partially inserted into the fixing hole 31, and the fixing member 30 is elastically deformed and applies an elastic force to the operating member 20 to hold the operating member 20. The fixing hole 31 may be exposed from the first sidewall 111, and the fixing member 30 may be made of a material having a good elasticity, such as silicon rubber or rubber. The size of one end of the operating member 20 can be slightly larger than the size of the fixing hole 31, and in the process that a user plugs the operating member 20 into the fixing hole 31, the fixing member 30 is elastically deformed, that is, the size of the fixing hole 31 is increased to adapt to the size of the end, the fixing member 30 clamps the operating member 20, the operating member 20 is not easy to shake, and when the operating member 20 needs to be taken out, the operating member 20 can be pulled out.

Referring to fig. 1 and 3, in some embodiments, the remote control 100 further includes a mounting base 40. The mount 40 is provided on the first housing 11 and/or the second housing 12, and the operating element 20 is detachably mounted on the mount 40. The mounting seat 40 may serve as an adapter for the operating element 20 and the body 10, the mounting seat 40 may be provided on one or both of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, and the operating element 20 may be detachably mounted on any one of the mounting seats 40. In one example, as shown in fig. 3, the mount 40 is completely housed within the body 10 so that the operating element 20 does not protrude from the body 10 after the operating element 20 is removed from the mount 40; in another example, as shown in fig. 4, the mounting seat 40 includes an operation protrusion 42, and the operation protrusion 42 protrudes from the body 10, so that a user can operate the operation protrusion 42 even without mounting the operation member 20.

The operation element 20 is detachably connected to the mounting seat 40, and specifically, as shown in fig. 1 and 3, the operation element 20 and the mounting seat 40 may be connected by a screw, an external thread is formed on an outer wall of one end of the operation element 20, and an internal thread is formed on the mounting seat 40, or the operation element 20 is screwed into or out of the mounting seat 40 to realize the detachable connection.

The cross-sectional shape of the mounting hole 41 may be cross-shaped, and the shape of a part of the operating element 20 may also be cross-shaped. The size of one end of the operating member 20 can be slightly larger than the size of the mounting hole 41, and in the process that a user plugs the operating member 20 into the mounting hole 41, the mounting seat 40 is elastically deformed, that is, the size of the mounting hole 41 is increased to adapt to the size of one end of the operating member 20, the mounting seat 40 clamps the operating member 20, the operating member 20 is not easy to slide relative to the mounting seat 40, and when the operating member 20 needs to be detached, the operating member 20 can be pulled out.

The following description will focus on the movable connection of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 and the related structure thereof:

referring to fig. 5 and 8, the remote control 100 includes a body 10 and a damping member 50. The body 10 includes a first housing 11 and a second housing 12 movably connected to each other, and the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 can slide relative to each other to switch between an open state and a closed state. The damping assembly 50 includes a first damping member 51 and a second damping member 52 which are engaged with each other, the first damping member 51 is connected to the first housing 11, and the second damping member 52 is connected to the second housing 12. When the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 slide relative to each other, the first damping member 51 and the second damping member 52 move relative to each other and generate a damping force acting on the first housing 11 and/or the second housing 12.

In the remote control 100 of the present embodiment, when the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 slide relatively, the first damping member 51 and the second damping member 52 move relatively and generate a damping force acting on the first housing 11 and/or the second housing 12, so that the speed of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 is easily controlled and the hand feeling of the user is good in the process of the relative movement.

Specifically, the description of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 can refer to the above description, and is not repeated herein.

Referring to fig. 7 and 8, in the embodiment of the present application, the first damping member 51 is a rack 51, the second damping member 52 is a damping gear 52, and when the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 slide relatively, the damping gear 52 rotates and generates a damping force. The rack 51 may be fixedly connected to the first housing 11, for example, the rack 51 may be integrally formed with the first housing 11, or the rack 51 may be fixedly clamped between the first upper case 112 and the first lower case 113 on the first housing 11. The rack 51 extends along the direction in which the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 slide relative to each other, in the embodiment of the present application, the track along which the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 slide relative to each other is a straight line, and the rack 51 extends along the direction of the straight line, but in other embodiments, the track along which the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 slide relative to each other may also be an arc line, and the rack 51 may extend along the direction of the arc line. Further, since the contact area between the rack 51 and the damper gear 52 is large, the reliability of the engagement between the rack 51 and the damper gear 52 is high, and the misalignment is not likely to occur.

Damping gear 52 can rotate to be connected on second casing 12, and specifically, damping gear 52 includes fixed part and the rotation portion that can relatively rotate, can be provided with the labyrinth groove between fixed part and the rotation portion, and the labyrinth groove intussuseption is filled with thick damping grease, and the fixed part can be with second casing 12 fixed connection, rotation portion and rack 51 cooperation. When the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 slide relatively, the second housing 12 drives the fixing portion to move, because the rotating portion is matched with the rack 51, the acting force of the rack 51 enables the rotating portion to rotate relative to the fixing portion, damping grease between the fixing portion and the rotating portion is rubbed and generates damping force, and the damping force finally provides a user with a blocked hand feeling when the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 slide relatively.

Of course, the specific forms of the first damping member 51 and the second damping member 52 are not limited to the above discussion, and other options are also possible, for example, the first damping member 51 may be configured as a damping gear, and the second damping member 52 may be configured as a rack. The damping gear is rotatably connected to the first housing 11, and the rack is fixed to the second housing 12. The rack extends along the direction of relative sliding between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, when the second housing 12 is pulled, the second housing 12 drives the rack to move, and the rack drives the damping gear to rotate so as to generate damping force.

Referring to fig. 7 and 8, in some embodiments, the second housing 12 includes a connecting portion 122, a guiding portion 123 and a holding portion 124 connected in sequence. The connecting portion 122 is located in the first housing 11 and connected to the second damping member 52. The guide portion 123 is used for guiding the relative sliding of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12. The grip portion 124 is located outside the first housing 11.

When the second housing 12 slides relative to the first housing 11, the depth of the second housing 12 extending into the first housing 11 changes, specifically, when the second housing 12 is in a fully opened state, the depth of the second housing 12 extending into the first housing 11 is the smallest, and when the second housing 12 is in a closed state, the depth of the second housing 12 extending into the first housing 11 is the largest. The connecting portion 122 may be located in the first housing 11 at all times, the connecting portion 122 may be used to connect with the second damping member 52, and in the embodiment of the present application, the second damping member 52 may also be located in the first housing 11 at all times. When the second housing 12 slides relative to the first housing 11, the depth of the guiding portion 123 extending into the first housing 11 is mainly changed, and the guiding portion 123 is used for guiding the relative sliding of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, that is, guiding the direction of the relative sliding of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12. The grip 124 is located outside the first housing 11, and the user may grasp the grip when operating the remote control 100, or may grasp the grip 124 and pull the second housing 12.

Referring to fig. 8 to 10, in combination with the above-mentioned first housing 11 including the first upper housing 112 and the first lower housing 113, the first upper housing 112 and the first lower housing 113 may form an accommodating space 117, and the damping element 50 and at least a portion of the second housing 12 may be accommodated in the accommodating space 117. Specifically, the first damper 51, the second damper 52, and the connecting portion 122 may be accommodated in the accommodating space 117, and the depth of the guide portion 123 accommodated in the accommodating space 117 may be changed by relatively sliding the first housing 11 and the second housing 12.

Referring to fig. 7, in some embodiments, the first housing 11 includes a first sidewall 111, the holding portion 124 includes a second sidewall 121, and the second sidewall 121 is opposite to the first sidewall 111. In the pulled-apart state, the first sidewall 111 is separated from the second sidewall 121, and in the merged state, the first sidewall 111 is combined with the second sidewall 121. The first sidewall 111 is formed with a through hole 114, and the guiding portion 123 penetrates through the through hole 114 and can slide relative to the first sidewall 111.

The through hole 114 can communicate with the accommodating space 117, the guide part 123 slides in the through hole 114, and the cross-sectional shape of the guide part 123 can be substantially the same as that of the through hole 114, so that the inner wall of the through hole 114 can well limit the guide part 123 and prevent the guide part 123 from shaking.

Referring to fig. 7 to 9, in some embodiments, the second housing 12 further includes a limiting portion 126. The stopper 126 is located in the first housing 11. The limiting portion 126 is disposed at an end of the guiding portion 123 away from the holding portion 124. When the limiting portion 126 abuts against the first sidewall 111, the holding portion 124 is pulled to a state farthest from the first housing 11.

Specifically, the guide portion 123 may pass through the through hole 114 and slide in the through hole 114, the limiting portion 126 may be a protrusion extending outward from the guide portion 123, the limiting portion 126 may be a plurality of spaced protrusions, or an annular protrusion surrounding the guide portion 123, and the limiting portion 126 may be disposed at a position where the guide portion 123 meets the connection portion 122. The limiting portion 126 is located in the first housing 11, the limiting portion 126 cannot pass through the through hole 114, and when the second housing 12 is pulled to the limiting position, the limiting portion 126 abuts against the first sidewall 111, so as to prevent the connecting portion 122 and other components from being pulled out of the first housing 11.

Referring to fig. 8-10, in some embodiments, first housing 11 includes a first guide 116. The second housing 12 includes a second guide 127, and the second guide 127 may be formed on the connection portion 122 and the guide portion 123. The first guide 116 and the second guide 127 extend in a direction in which the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 slide relative to each other. The first guide 116 and the second guide 127 cooperate with each other to guide the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 to slide relative to each other.

Specifically, the first guide 116 may be formed on the first upper case 112, and the second guide 127 is correspondingly formed on a side of the second housing 12 close to the first upper case 112; or the first guide 116 may be formed on the first lower case 113, and the second guide 127 may be correspondingly formed on the side of the second case 12 close to the first lower case 113; or the first guide 116 may be formed on the first upper case 112 and the first lower case 113 at the same time. The first guide 116 and the second guide 127 cooperate to guide the sliding direction of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, so as to prevent the positions of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 from being dislocated.

In the example shown in fig. 9 and 10, the first guide 116 is a guide rail 116, and the second guide 127 is a guide groove 127 engaged with the guide rail. The guide rails 116 may be formed on the first lower case 113, and the number of the guide rails 116 may be single or plural, for example, two. Correspondingly, the guide groove 127 is formed at a side of the connection part 122 and the guide part 123 close to the first lower case 113. The guide rail 116 extends into the guide groove 127, and in the process that the guide rail 116 slides relative to the guide groove 127, the guide rail 116 does not fall out of the guide groove 127, and the guide rail 116 is always limited by the guide groove 127 to slide along the extending direction of the guide groove 127, so that the relative sliding direction of the second housing 12 and the first housing 11 can be limited in the extending direction of the guide groove 127.

Of course, in other examples, the first guide 116 and the second guide 127 may be in other specific forms. For example, the first guide member 116 is a guide groove, and the second guide member 127 is a guide rail engaged with the first guide member 116, which is not limited herein.

Referring to fig. 11 and 12, in some embodiments, the body 10 is formed with a front surface 14 and a back surface 15 opposite to each other.

In the incorporated state, the spring 61 is elongated to provide a preload force for the coupling between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12; as the second housing 12 and the first housing 11 are gradually pulled apart, the first connecting member 11a and the second connecting member 12c are gradually separated, the spring 61 is further gradually extended, and the elastic force is gradually increased. In other embodiments, the purpose of applying elastic force to the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 can be achieved by compressing springs, and in the combined state, the springs are compressed and apply pre-tightening force to the first housing 11 and the second housing 12; as the second housing 12 and the first housing 11 are gradually pulled apart, the spring is further gradually compressed, and the elastic force is gradually increased.

Of course, the specific form of the elastic member 30 may be other, and is not limited herein. For example, the elastic member 60 may be a coil spring, a fixed end of which is connected to the first housing 11 and a movable end of which is connected to the second housing 12, and which is stretched to provide elastic force in the pulled-apart state. In the combined state, the movable end is partially pulled out to provide a pre-tightening force for the combination between the first shell 11 and the second shell 12; as the second housing 12 and the first housing 11 are gradually pulled apart, the movable end is gradually separated from the fixed end, the coil spring is gradually extended, and the elastic force is gradually increased.
