Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fictitious control and hand manoeuvre device according to the introduction to claim 1.
  • the objective of the present invention is thus to achieve a fictitious control and hand manoeuvre device that makes this wish possible.
  • This objective is realised by the fictitious control and hand manoeuvre device according to the invention having the features and characteristics stated in claim 1.
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a fictitious control and hand manoeuvre device according to the invention with partially separated parts and to which a conventional type of control and guidance device equipped with a gyro is arranged
  • Fig. 2 shows a side view of a section of the fictitious control and hand manoeuvre device according to the invention as shown in Fig. 1 fitted with the conventional type of control and guidance device.
  • the fictitious control and hand manoeuvre device according to the invention shown in Fig. 1 includes a first section generally designated with the reference number 1 that is supported in a multiple-axial moveable manner by a second section generally designated with the reference number 2.
  • the sections are joined by a spring device 3 of the coiled spring type. It should be realised that by an appropriate choice of the design of the coiled spring 3 and its chosen spring constant, the first section 1 will, without external influence, seek to attain the position shown in Fig. 1 , i.e. a normal and constant initial starting position.
  • the first section 1 includes a holding device generally designated by 4 and designed to support and hold in position a conventional control and guidance device 5 equipped with a gyro.
  • holding device 4 includes a support 6 that is formed from an essentially rectangular-shaped sheet metal plate whose one short side is, at 7, firmly attached at the area of transition between the first section 1 and the spring device 3 so that the main section of the metal plate projects out as a cantilever from the said area in a console-like manner. More specifically, it should be realised that the console-like shelf formed by the support 6 is located in front of the user and facing away from them.
  • holes 8 are made in the support 6 formed by the metal plate through which screws 9 extend for screwing fast and thereby joining the control and guidance device equipped with a gyro to the support.
  • the control and guidance device 5 equipped with a gyro can easily be brought to attach to the support 6 without having to tamper with the casing.
  • a so-called expander plug 10 that has been accommodated in the dead holes located in the underside of the casing is used to interact with the screws 9 for firmly attaching the control and guidance device 5 at the upper side of the support 6.
  • the guarantee pledges of the manufacturer of the control and guidance device 5 can be made to apply without any unnecessary discussions about the user causing damage having to be brought up.
  • the task of the adjusting device 11 arranged at the holding device 4 is to allow adjustment or calibration of the control and guidance device 5 supported by the first section 1 to an initial starting position essentially coinciding with the horizontal plane.
  • Adjusting device 11 includes an adjusting screw 12 that acts against the rear section of the control and guidance device 5 and that is accommodated in a threaded hole 13 in support 6.
  • the control and guidance device 5 can be brought to move in the manner illustrated by the curved double arrow 14 in Fig. 2.
  • Fig. 2 As is evident from Fig.
  • the second section 2 of the fictitious control and hand manoeuvre device includes a rod 16 projecting from a base section 15 in the form of two tubes where one is accommodated in the other and that is adjustable in an axial direction in a telescope-like manner and lockable in a specified position by means of an adjustment screw 17.
  • the steering device designated by 18 and located on the first section 1 can be adjusted in height so that it can be positioned at a comfortable height for the user.
  • a holding device 19 that allows a detachable attachment of the steering device 18 to the first part 1 is arranged on the upper side of the attachment of the support 4 formed from metal plate to the spring device.
  • the holding device 19 includes clamps that act via a screw device.
  • Fig. 1 it is the steering device 18 in the form of a handle bar with which, merely as an example, the embodiment of the invention described here is equipped, together with hand grips 20 at its outer ends that the user can grasp hold of for manoeuvring the first part relative to the second part.
  • Hand-control devices in the form of known controls that more specifically include an acceleration hand-control grip 21 and a brake hand-control grip 22 respectively are arranged in the area of the said hand-grips 20.
  • Hand-control devices 21, 22 are appropriately positioned in such a manner that they are easily accessible for manoeuvring, even when grasping the hand-grip 20.
  • the said hand-control devices 21, 22 or, more specifically, the acceleration hand-control grip and the brake hand-control grip respectively, are arranged to affect by movement the hand-control device that, in the form of the keypads or push-buttons generally designated by 23, is located on the outside of the supported control and guidance device 5 equipped with a gyro.
  • a first and a second double-armed link 24 respective 25 are mounted to pivot on either side of the support 6 formed from metal plate where one of the ends of the double-armed link 24 is joined with the acceleration hand-control grip 21 via a first sliding cable 26 so that it can transfer movement, and where one of the ends of the second double-armed link 25 is joined with the brake hand-control grip 22 via a second sliding cable 27 so that it can transfer movement.
  • the lower attachment points on the casing of the said respective sliding cables 26, 27 are arranged on a section 28 that is folded down at the front end of the support 6.
  • cushion-like elastic elements 29 are arranged on the active end parts of the respective link-arm 24, 25.
  • This cushion-like elastic element 29 is appropriately made of soft rubber or a foam rubber material.
  • the return of the hand-control devices 21, 22 or, more specifically, the return movement of the acceleration hand-control grip and the brake hand-control grip respectively, is assisted by the spring device 30 arranged between the folded-down section 28 of the support 6 and the respective double-armed link 24, 25.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de manipulation permettant d'exécuter des commandes fictives et conçu pour être utilisé avec des éléments de guidage et de commande (5) pourvus d'un gyroscope et servant à commander des jeux informatiques ou analogues. Afin d'accroître l'expérience que l'on acquiert avec ce type de jeu, le dispositif de l'invention comprend une première section (1), laquelle est supportée mobile, par une seconde section (2), de manière à pouvoir effectuer un mouvement axial multiple, et comporte un dispositif de retenue (4) agencé pour soutenir et maintenir en position un élément de guidage et de commande (5) doté d'un gyroscope, un organe de guidage (18) qu'un utilisateur peut, en le saisissant, utiliser pour manoeuvrer la première section (1) par rapport à la seconde section (2), de même que des dispositifs de commande manuelle (21, 22) montés sur l'organe de guidage, placés de manière être facilement accessibles à un utilisateur, lorsque celui-ci saisit l'organe de guidage, et conçus pour exercer un mouvement sur le dispositif de commande manuelle (23) dont est pourvu l'élément de guidage et de commande.
