Detailed Description

The technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the present invention.

Referring to fig. 2-6, the utility model discloses a game paddle with multi-functional control knob, including casing 7, circuit board 1, rocker 4, be provided with the shell opening on the casing 7, be equipped with little the control unit on the circuit board 1, still include hollow control knob 6, the casing 7 opening is passed at control knob 6's top, control knob 6 can rotate around rocker 4, is provided with sensing element 2 in the casing, this sensing element 2 with circuit board 1 is connected. In the process of operating the game handle, the control knob 6 rotates to trigger the sensing element 2, the sensing element 2 generates an electric signal and transmits the electric signal to the circuit board 1, and the micro control unit on the circuit board 1 outputs a signal for controlling a game by processing the received electric signal from the sensing element, so that the game adjusting function is started. The control knob 6 cooperates with the sensor element 2 for a variety of functions. By programming the micro control unit on the circuit board 1 differently, functions including but not limited to the following can be achieved: the device comprises a vector steering wheel function, a rocker precision adjusting function, a rocker dead zone adjusting function, a rocker sensitivity adjusting function, a trigger precision adjusting function, a trigger sensitivity adjusting function, a light intensity adjusting function, a light color adjusting function, a screen mouse moving function, various gear adjusting functions and the like.

Preferably, the gamepad also comprises a positioning part 3 fixed to the circuit board 1, the control knob 6 being rotatable about the rocker 4 by arranging the bottom of the control knob 6 on the positioning part 3 and being rotatable with respect to the positioning part 3.

Preferably, the sensing element 2 is disposed on the circuit board 1, the sensing element 2 generates an electrical signal by sensing the rotation direction or the rotation path of the control knob 6, that is, the rotation direction or the rotation path of the control knob 6 is transmitted to the sensing element 2, and the electrical signal is converted by the sensing element 2 and transmitted to the circuit board 1, and then the micro control unit on the circuit board 1 processes the received electrical signal from the sensing element 2 to output a signal for controlling the game, so as to start the game adjusting function.

In a first embodiment, referring to fig. 3-4, the sensing element 2 is a grating sensor, and the control knob 6 can be rotated in two directions to activate the sensing element 2. The lower part of the opening of the shell 7 is provided with a vertical type, a horizontal type, an inclined type or other grating induction sensors. The grating induction sensor can sense the rotating direction or distance of the control knob 6 and generate an electric signal to be transmitted to the circuit board 1 through the movement of the grating when the control knob 6 rotates, and then the micro control unit on the circuit 1 processes the received electric signal from the induction element 2 to output a signal for controlling the game, so as to start the game adjusting function.

Second embodiment, referring to fig. 4-5, the inductive element 2 is a potentiometer or encoder. When the sensing element 2 is a potentiometer, the control knob 6 drives the potentiometer to rotate by different angles through the transmission piece 61, so that the potentiometer outputs different voltages, the micro control unit sets the voltage output by the potentiometer to be a plurality of gears, and then the micro control unit outputs a game control signal according to the gear of the potentiometer, so as to start a game adjusting function. When the sensing element 2 is an encoder, the encoder generates an electric signal by sensing the rotation direction or the rotation distance of the control knob 6 and transmits the electric signal to the circuit board 1, and then the micro control unit on the circuit board 1 outputs a signal for controlling the game by processing the received electric signal from the sensing element 2, thereby starting the game adjusting function.
