Description

  The present invention relates to a controller.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there has been known a cable device that remotely controls an operated object by transmitting the operation on the operation side to the operated object such as an air conditioner of a remotely located vehicle. In this regard, for example, Patent Literatures 1 and 2 disclose a cable device in which the end of a cable is fixed to a pulley and then the cable is wound and the rotational movement of the pulley is transmitted by pushing and pulling the cable.

Unexamined-Japanese-Patent No. 2002-221216 JP, 2015-230096, A

  However, in the inventions described in Patent Literatures 1 and 2, since the number of rotations that can be transmitted is determined by the number of turns in which the cable is wound around the pulley, the rotational motion can not be transmitted infinitely.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a controller capable of infinitely transmitting a rotational motion.

  In order to solve the above problems, a controller according to the present invention includes, for example, a first operation stick, a first pivoting member that pivots according to a pivoting movement of the first operation stick in the first direction, and A first operation unit having a second rotation member that rotates in response to a swinging movement of a first operation stick in a second direction different from the first direction; a second operation stick; a second operation stick; A third pivoting member that pivots in response to a pivoting motion in three directions, and a fourth pivoting member that pivots in response to a pivoting motion in a fourth direction different from the third direction of the second operation stick A second operation unit having the first rotation member connected to one end, the third rotation member connected to the other end, and the rotation of the first rotation member to the third rotation member The first cable device for transmission and the second rotating member are connected at one end , The fourth rotating member is connected to the other end, characterized by and a second cable device for transmitting to said fourth rotating member rotation of said second pivot member.

  According to the controller of the present invention, the first pivoting member rotates in response to the movement of the first operation stick in one direction, and the second rotation member rotates in response to the movement in the other direction of the first operation stick. Since the third rotation member that rotates in response to the movement of the second operation stick in one direction and the fourth rotation member that rotates in response to the movement in the other direction of the second operation stick, the rotation movement of the operation stick Can be divided into components of one direction and components of the other direction for transmission. As a result, the rotation range of the first rotation member and the second rotation member is narrowed, and even if the rotation range of the first cable device and the second cable device is about ± 45 degrees to ± 90 degrees, The rotational motion of the first operation stick can be transmitted to the second operation stick infinitely.

  Further, the first operation unit is viewed from above the first operation unit while the first operation stick is inclined when the operation of the first operation stick is viewed from the side of the first operation unit. The first operation stick has a first restricting portion for restricting to a rotational movement in which the tip of the first operation stick draws a circle, and the second operation unit operates the second operation stick from the side of the second operation unit. The second operation stick has a second restricting portion that restricts the rotational operation in which the tip of the second operation stick draws a circle when the second operation unit is viewed from above while the second operation stick is inclined when viewed It is also good. Thereby, the motions of the first operation stick and the second operation stick can be made into a rotational motion of drawing a circle.

  Further, the first operation unit is rotatable with respect to the first base member containing the first operation stick, the first pivoting member, and the second pivoting member, and the first base member. And a second base member containing the second operation stick, the third pivoting member, and the fourth pivoting member. And a second cover member rotatably provided relative to the second base member, wherein the first restricting portion is provided on the first cover member and connected to a tip end of the first operation stick. The second restricting portion may be provided on the second cover member and connected to the tip of the second operation stick. Thereby, the movement of the first operation stick and the second operation stick can be reliably made to be a rotational movement as compared with the case where only the first operation stick and the second operation stick are operated, and the rotational movement of the cover member It can be transmitted to the operation stick.

  Further, the first cable device has a first cable, a first pulley provided with one end of the first cable, and a second pulley provided with the other end of the first cable, The second cable device has a second cable, a third pulley provided with one end of the second cable, and a fourth pulley provided with the other end of the second cable, and the first pulley Is connected to the first rotating member, and the first pulley and the first rotating member rotate within a range of about -45 degrees to about 45 degrees, and the second pulley is connected to the third rotating member. The second pulley and the third rotating member are connected and rotated in a range of about -45 degrees to about 45 degrees, and the third pulley is connected to the second rotating member, and the third pulley The second pivoting member pivots in a range of about -45 degrees to about 45 degrees, and the fourth pulley is in the front direction. Fourth is connected to the rotating member, the fourth pulley and the fourth rotating member may be rotated in a range of approximately 45 degrees from substantially -45 degrees. As a result, the number of turns around the first cable and the number of turns around the second pulley and the number of turns around the second cable and the number of turns around the second cable are reduced, and the first pulley, the second pulley, the third pulley and the The four pulleys can be miniaturized.

  According to the present invention, the rotational motion can be transmitted to the operated object infinitely.

It is a figure which shows the application example of the controller 10 which concerns on this embodiment.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention (hereinafter, referred to as "the present embodiment") will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the overall configuration of a controller 10 according to the present embodiment. The controller 10 according to the present embodiment is for remotely operating an unshown operated body. The object to be operated is not particularly limited, and is, for example, an air conditioner or a generator that performs a rotational operation.

  The controller 10 mainly includes a pair of operation units 12A and 12B and a pair of cable devices 14A and 14B.

  The pair of operation units 12A and 12B are disposed apart from each other via the pair of cable devices 14A and 14B. One of the pair of operation units 12A and 12B is connected to, for example, a drive source (not shown), and performs a rotation operation (rotation operation) by the drive source. The other of the pair of operation units 12A and 12B is connected to the operated body, and has a function of transmitting the rotation operation to the operated body.

  In the present embodiment, a drive source is connected to the operation unit 12A, an operated body is connected to the operation unit 12B, and rotation of the operation unit 12A is transmitted to the operation unit 12B via the cable devices 14A and 14B. Do. The operation units 12A and 12B have the same configuration.

  The pair of cable devices 14A and 14B has a central portion gathered and both ends branched. The operation unit 12A is connected to one end of the cable devices 14A and 14B, and the operation unit 12B is connected to the other end of the cable devices 14A and 14B.

  The cable devices 14A and 14B have the same configuration. The cable devices 14A and 14B will be described below using the cable device 14A.

  The cable device 14A is extended around a pair of pulleys 20A and 20B and a pair of pulleys 20A and 20B, and cables 22 and 24 whose ends are fixed to the pair of pulleys 20A and 20B, and an outer cable 26 Have. The cables 22, 24 are provided inside the outer cable 26. Two holes are formed in the outer cable 26, and the cables 22 and 24 are respectively inserted into the two holes. The cables 22, 24 move inside the hole of the outer cable 26.

  One end of each of the cables 22 and 24 is fixed to the pulley 20A, and the other end is fixed to the pulley 20B. In the pulleys 20A and 20B, the cable 22 is wound around the pulley 20A (nearly wound on the pulley 20B) and the cable 24 is wound around the pulley 20B (nearly wound on the pulley 20A). The cable 24 is wound around the pulley 20A (it is hardly wound around the pulley 20B), and the cable 22 is rotated between the state where it is wound around the pulley 20B (which is hardly wound around the pulley 20A). That is, when the pulley 20A rotates, the pulley 20B rotates by the same angle as the pulley 20A.

  Thus, the cable device 14A has a function of transmitting the rotation of one pulley (for example, the pulley 20A) to the other pulley (for example, the pulley 20B). The cables 22 and 24 and the outer cable 26 preferably have flexibility and flexibility from the viewpoint of being able to be routed freely.

  In the present embodiment, the cable device 14A has the two cables 22 and 24. However, the cable device 14A has one substantially ring-shaped cable such as a transmission belt, which is used for the pulleys 20A and 20B. It may be wound. The cables 22 and 24 may be cords, and may be wires or ropes.

  FIG. 2 is a partial exploded perspective view of the operation unit 12A shown in FIG. FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the base member 32 shown in FIG. In addition, since the structure of the operation unit 12B is the same structure as the operation unit 12A, the description is abbreviate | omitted.

  The operation unit 12A mainly includes a cover member 30, a base member 32, an operation stick 50, a first rotation member 52, and a second rotation member 54.

  The cover member 30 is rotatably provided relative to the base member 32 so as to cover the opening of the base member 32. The shape of the cover member 30 is, for example, a substantially cylindrical shape with one end (upper end in FIG. 2) closed. An uneven portion 34 is formed on the outer periphery of the cover member 30 along the circumferential direction, and the outer periphery is shaped like a gear. Inside the cover member 30, a substantially cylindrical projecting portion 36 projecting toward the base member 32 is provided. A hollow portion 38 is formed at the tip of the projecting portion 36.

  The shape of the base member 32 is, for example, a substantially cylindrical shape with one end closed (the lower end in FIG. 2). The base member 32 accommodates the operation stick 50, the first rotation member 52, and the second rotation member 54. On the other end (upper end in FIG. 2) side of the base member 32, a flange portion 40 as a guide member protruding outward in the radial direction is provided.

  FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional perspective view of the operation unit 12A. FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the operation unit 12A with the cover member 30 and the base member 32 removed. The vertical direction in FIG. 4 is referred to as the vertical direction in the present invention. Further, the direction substantially orthogonal to the vertical direction in FIG. 4 is taken as the lateral direction in the present invention.

  The operation stick 50 is a substantially rod-like member linearly extended upward from below in FIG. A substantially U-shaped fixing portion 60 is provided at one end of the operation stick 50, and a ball 62 is provided at the other end. In other words, the sphere 62 is provided at the tip of the operation stick 50.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the spherical body 62 is inserted into the hollow portion 38, and the tip of the operation stick 50 is connected to the projecting portion 36. Thereby, the cover member 30 and the operation stick 50 are connected, and the rotational movement of the cover member 30 is transmitted to the operation stick 50.

  The center of the projecting portion 36 and the hollow portion 38 is offset from the center of the cover member 30 and rotates in a circle as the cover member 30 rotates. As a result, as the cover member 30 rotates, the sphere 62 rotates in a circle. That is, the protrusion 36 functions as a restricting portion that restricts the movement of the tip (the ball 62) of the operation stick 50 to the rotational movement. Here, in the rotational operation, when the operation units 12A and 12B are viewed from the side (when the cover member 30 and the base member 32 are viewed from the side), the operation stick 50 is inclined from above the operation units 12A and 12B. When it sees (when it sees from the cover member 30 side), the tip of operation stick 50 says the operation which draws a circle.

  The fixing portion 60 is rotatably provided on the second rotation member 54. In the present embodiment, the fixing portion 60 is pivotally supported by a shaft 81 provided on the second rotating member 54, and the fixing portion 60 can rotate with respect to the shaft 81.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the first pivoting member 52 has a function of transmitting a swinging motion in a predetermined direction, for example, an X direction in the figure, to the cable device 14B in the operation stick 50. The first rotation member 52 is formed, for example, in an arch shape in which a central portion protrudes toward the cover member 30 side. A through hole 70 passing through the first pivoting member 52 along the longitudinal direction of the first pivoting member 52 is formed in the central portion in the width direction of the first pivoting member 52. The operation stick 50 is rockably inserted into the through hole 70 along the direction in which the through hole 70 is formed. In the present embodiment, the formation direction of the through holes 70 is a Y direction which intersects, particularly, is orthogonal to the X direction.

  As shown in FIG. 5, first rotating shafts 72 a and 72 b are fixed to both ends of the first rotating member 52. The first rotation shafts 72a and 72b are provided on a straight line so that the central axes overlap. The first rotation shaft 72a is connected and fixed to the pulley 20A of the cable device 14B, and the first rotation shaft 72a and the central axis of the pulley 20A are provided on a straight line. That is, the pulley 20A of the cable device 14B rotates together with the first rotation member 52.

  The first rotation shafts 72 a and 72 b are provided rotatably with respect to the base member 32. For example, by inserting the first rotary shafts 72a and 72b into the holes (not shown) formed in the base member 32, the first rotary shafts 72a and 72b, that is, the first rotary member 52 can be inserted into the base member 32. It is rotatable relative to it.

  The second pivoting member 54 has a function of transmitting a swinging motion in a predetermined direction, for example, a Y direction in the drawing, to the cable device 14A in the operation stick 50. The second pivoting member 54 mainly has a substantially U-shaped connecting portion 80 and second rotating shafts 82a and 82b. The connecting portion 80 is provided so as to sandwich the fixing portion 60 of the operation stick 50, and rotates in the Y direction together with the fixing portion 60.

  A pair of second rotation shafts 82 a and 82 b are connected and fixed to the connection portion 80. The second rotation shafts 82a and 82b are provided on a straight line such that the central axes overlap. The second rotation shaft 82a is connected and fixed to the pulley 20A of the cable device 14A, and the second rotation shaft 82a and the central axis of the pulley 20A are provided on a straight line. That is, the pulley 20A of the cable device 14A rotates together with the second rotation member 54.

  The second rotation shafts 82 a and 82 b are rotatably connected to the base member 32. For example, by inserting the second rotation shafts 82a and 82b into the holes 32a and 32b (see FIG. 4) formed in the base member 32, the second rotation shafts 82a and 82b, that is, the second rotation member 54, It is pivotable with respect to the member 32.

  With the above configuration, the first pivoting member 52 pivots in the X direction along with the pivoting movement of the operation stick 50 in the X direction, and pivots the pulley 20A of the cable device 14B. The second pivoting member 54 pivots in the Y direction along with the pivoting movement of the operation stick 50 in the Y direction, and pivots the pulley 20A of the cable device 14A. As described above, the swinging motion of the operation stick 50 in the X direction is transmitted to the cable device 14B via the first pivoting member 52, and the swinging motion of the operation stick 50 in the Y direction is the second pivoting member 54. The power is transmitted to the cable device 14A.

  6A to 6D are perspective views of the operation unit 12A from which the cover member 30 and the base member 32 are removed, and the operation stick 50, the first rotation member 52, and the second rotation member 54. It is a figure which shows the mode of each rotation. FIG. 7 is a view showing the relationship between the rotation angle of the cover member 30 (the tip of the operation stick 50) and the rotation angles of the first rotation member 52 and the second rotation member 54. As shown in FIG. In other words, FIG. 7 is a view showing the relationship between the rotation angle of the cover member 30 (the tip of the operation stick 50) and the rotation angle of the pulley 20A in the cable devices 14A and 14B. Here, the horizontal axis in FIG. 7 indicates the rotation angle of the cover member 30, and the vertical axis in FIG. 7 indicates the pulleys 20A in the first rotation member 52, the second rotation member 54, and the cable devices 14A and 14B. Indicates the rotation angle of

  Here, when the first pivoting member 52 is erected with respect to the bottom surface of the base member 32, it is assumed that the pivoting angle of the pulley 20A in the first pivoting member 52, that is, the cable device 14B is 0 degree. When the rotation member 54 becomes horizontal, it is assumed that the rotation angle of the pulley 20A in the second rotation member 54, that is, the cable device 14A is 0 degree.

  FIG. 6A shows a state where the rotation angle of the cover member 30 in FIG. 7 is 0 degree and 360 degrees, and the rotation angle of the pulley 20A of the second rotation member 54 and the cable device 14A is 0 degree. The rotation angle of the first rotation member 52 and the pulley 20A of the cable device 14B is 45 degrees. FIG. 6B shows a state where the rotation angle of the cover member 30 in FIG. 7 is 90 degrees, and the rotation angle of the pulley 20A of the second rotation member 54 and the cable device 14A is -45 degrees. The rotation angle of one rotation member 52 and the pulley 20A of the cable device 14B is 0 degree. FIG. 6C shows a state where the rotation angle of the cover member 30 in FIG. 7 is 180 degrees, and the rotation angle of the pulley 20A of the second rotation member 54 and the cable device 14A is 0 degree. The rotation angle of the rotation member 52 and the pulley 20A of the cable device 14B is -45 degrees. FIG. 6D shows a state where the rotation angle of the cover member 30 in FIG. 7 is 270 degrees, and the rotation angle of the pulley 20A of the second rotation member 54 and the cable device 14A is 45 degrees. The rotation angle of the rotation member 52 and the pulley 20A of the cable device 14B is 0 degree.

  Thus, even if the cover member 30 is rotated 360 degrees, the first rotating member 52 and the second rotating member 54, that is, the pulleys 20A in the cable devices 14A and 14B are within the range of 45 degrees to -45 degrees. It only pivots.

  In the cable devices 14A and 14B, the rotation angle of the pulley 20A and the rotation angle of the pulley 20B are the same. Therefore, when the pulley 20A provided in the operation unit 12A rotates within the range of 45 degrees to -45 degrees, the pulley 20B of the operation unit 12B also rotates within the range of 45 degrees to -45 degrees. Then, the first rotation member 52 and the second rotation member 54 of the operation unit 12B are in the range of 45 degrees to -45 degrees, similarly to the first rotation member 52 and the second rotation member 54 of the operation unit 12A. It rotates inside. As a result, the operation stick 50 of the operation unit 12B moves in the same manner as the operation stick 50 of the operation unit 12A, and the position of the operation stick 50 of the operation unit 12A and the swing angle are transmitted to the operation stick 50 of the operation unit 12B.

  Then, the operation stick 50 of the operation unit 12B rotates the cover member 30 of the operation unit 12B. The rotation of the cover member 30 of the operation unit 12B is the same as the rotation of the cover member 30 of the operation unit 12A.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, the first pivoting member 52 pivots along with the swinging motion of the operation stick 50 in one direction, and the second pivots along with the motion in the other direction of the operation stick 50 By providing the rotation member 54, it is possible to divide and transmit the rotational movement of the operation stick 50 into the component in one direction and the component in the other direction. As a result, the range of the rotation angle of the first rotation member 52 and the second rotation member 54 can be set to the range of 45 degrees to -45 degrees, and the range of the rotation angles transmitted by the cable devices 14A and 14B. It can also range from 45 degrees to -45 degrees.

  Therefore, for example, by connecting the operated body to the cover member 30 of the operation unit 12B and rotating the cover member 30 of the operation unit 12A, temporarily the number of turns of the cables 22 and 24 of the cable devices 14A and 14B is about half rotation. Even if the rotational speed of the pulleys 20A and 20B is limited, the rotational operation of the cover member 30 (the ball 62 of the operation stick 50) of the operation unit 12A is the cover of the operation unit 12B. It can be transmitted infinitely to the member 30 (i.e., the manipulated object) (without limitation of the rotational speed).

  Further, according to the present embodiment, the rotation angles transmitted by the cable devices 14A and 14B, that is, the range of the pulleys 20A and 20B can be in the range of 45 degrees to -45 degrees. , 20B can be reduced, and the pulleys 20A, 20B can be miniaturized. For example, if it is intended to transmit rotational motions of multiple revolutions using only the cable devices 14A, 14B, it must be wound around the pulleys 20A, 20B of the cables 22, 24 multiple times. In the case where the cables 22 and 24 are wound around the pulleys 20A and 20B a plurality of times, the cables 22 and 24 must be spirally wound so as not to overlap, and the pulleys 20A and 20B become large. In addition, when it is attempted to transmit the rotational motion of a plurality of rotations using only the cable devices 14A and 14B, the transmittable number of rotations is limited by the number of windings of the cables 22 and 24 around the pulleys 20A and 20B. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the number of rotations that can be transmitted by the controller 10 is not limited. Moreover, since the same controller 10 can be used regardless of the rotation speed to transmit, manufacture of the apparatus using the controller 10 or the controller 10 becomes easy, and cost reduction is also possible.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, since the cable devices 14A and 14B have the two cables 22 and 24, there is no difference in torque when the pulleys 20A and 20B rotate in the forward and reverse directions. Therefore, the movement of the operation stick 50 in the operation unit 12A can be smoothly transmitted to the operation stick 50 in the operation unit 12B.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, since the operation units 12A and 12B have the projecting portion 36 and the hollow portion 38 for restricting the operation of the operation stick 50 to the rotational operation, the distal end (the ball 62) of the operation stick 50 is rotated. It can be done. And since the protrusion part 36 and the hollow part 38 are formed in the cover member 30, the spherical body 62 can be rotated as the cover member 30 rotates.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, since the pair of operation units 12A and 12B is provided, one of them can be freely selected as the operation side, and the other can be selected as the transmission side, and versatility can be enhanced. Since the operation units 12A and 12B have the same configuration, it is possible to suppress parts management and manufacturing costs.

  FIG. 8 is a view showing an application example of the controller 10 according to the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 8, one end of a plurality of controllers 10 is connected to a motor as the drive source 100, and a fan as the operated object 102 is connected to the other end of each controller. As described above, since the controller 10 is capable of infinite rotation, one drive source 100 can rotate the plurality of controllers 10 infinitely, and the plurality of operated objects 102 can be remotely operated, that is, the blades of the plurality of fans can be operated. It can be rotated at the same time. Further, since the transmission mechanism using the cable devices 14A and 14B, the position of the wing can be freely laid out.

  The embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the drawings, but the specific configuration is not limited to this embodiment, and design changes and the like within the scope of the present invention are also included. .

  For example, when the cover member 30 is rotated 360 degrees, the case where the first rotation member 52 and the second rotation member 54 rotate within the range of 45 degrees to -45 degrees (± 45 degrees) has been described. The rotation range of the first rotation member 52 and the second rotation member 54 is not limited to this. For example, even if the first pivoting member and the second pivoting member are configured such that the first pivoting member 52 and the second pivoting member 54 pivot within a range of ± 30 degrees smaller than ± 45 degrees Good. Further, for example, the first rotation member and the second rotation member are configured such that the first rotation member 52 and the second rotation member 54 rotate within a range of ± 60 degrees larger than ± 45 degrees. May be Even in this case, when the spherical body 62 (cover member 30) of the operation stick 50 is rotated, even if the number of turns of the cables 22 and 24 of the cable devices 14A and 14B is about half rotation, one operation stick 50 Can be transmitted to the swinging motion of the other operation stick 50 infinitely.

  Moreover, although the case where the operation stick 50 was the rod member extended linearly was demonstrated, you may curve. In this case, the height of the operation stick 50 can be shortened, and the thickness of the operation units 12A and 12B can be reduced.

  Further, the tip of the operation stick 50 does not necessarily have to be provided with the ball 62, and may be provided with, for example, a substantially cylindrical or substantially cylindrical tip. In this case, the tip end may be connected to the protrusion 36. When the end of the operation stick 50 is provided with a substantially cylindrical tip, the inside of the cover member 30 has a substantially cylindrical protrusion that projects toward the base member 32 instead of the protrusion 36. It may be formed. The substantially cylindrical or substantially cylindrical tip portion is superior in that it is easier to manufacture than the spherical body 62.

  Further, the shapes and configurations of the first rotation member 52 and the second rotation member 54 are not particularly limited to the above-described configuration, and for example, the shape of the first rotation member 52 is not arched but plate-shaped. It may be.

  Further, the first rotation member 52 and the second rotation member 54 are substantially orthogonal, and the axes of the pulleys 20A, 20B of the cable device 14A and the axes of the pulleys 20A, 20B of the cable device 14B are approximately orthogonal. Although the cases have been described, they may not be substantially orthogonal.

  Moreover, although the protrusion part 36 and the hollow part 38 which control the movement of the operation stick 50 were provided in the cover member 30, the form which controls the movement of the operation stick 50 is not restricted to this. For example, instead of the cover member 30, a member having a substantially annular groove may be provided on the base member 32 and the movement of the operation stick 50 may be restricted by inserting the operation stick 50 into the hole.

  In the present invention, “abbreviation” is a concept including not only strictly identical but also errors and deformations to the extent that identity is not lost. For example, substantially parallel and approximately orthogonal are not limited to strictly parallel and orthogonal cases. Further, for example, when expressing simply as parallel, orthogonal, etc., not only strictly parallel, orthogonal, etc., but also substantially parallel, substantially orthogonal, etc. shall be included.
