Description

joystick mod

The invention relates to a joystick module, in particular to a joystick module which is applied in a game controller and can be quickly disassembled.

In order to increase the functions and operating feel of the game controller, today's game controllers generally adopt the design of integrating a push switch in the pointing rocker. And in order to make both the pointing rocker and the push switch operate simultaneously without interfering with each other, the structure integrating the pointing rocker and the push switch has become the key point in the design of the joystick module. A novel game rocker switch disclosed in Taiwan New Patent No. M561319 includes a rocker, the rocker is swingably accommodated in a housing, and the rocker is provided with a The external contact portion, and then presses a key switch through the contact portion when the user presses the rocker.

For example, Chinese Utility Model Patent No. 215084801 discloses a one-piece handle rocker with a Hall element, which also accommodates a rocker in a rod seat in a rockable manner, and makes a part of the rocker protrude. out of the rod seat to press a push switch.

However, although the above-mentioned various rocker modules can integrate the pointing rocker and the push switch, the pointing rocker and the push switch are integrally welded and fixed on the circuit board, and this structural design has the following advantages in application Missing: first of all, the lifespan of the pointing stick is often lower than that of the buttons Press the switch, but when the described pointing rocker fails, it needs to be replaced together with intact parts such as the press switch and the substrate, resulting in waste. In addition, when the user wants to replace the joystick module by himself, he needs to use the desoldering equipment to remove the entire joystick module from the game controller before installing a new joystick module. It may cause damage to the entire game controller, and discarded circuit boards and electronic components usually contain a large amount of toxic substances such as heavy metals. If they are discarded randomly, it will cause environmental pollution and catastrophe; moreover, a small amount of poisonous gas will be produced during the desoldering process.
