Detailed ways

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

The core of the present invention is to provide a handle trigger adjustment device, which can realize the control of the trigger, make the trigger have different use effects, and can improve the user experience.

Another core of the present invention is to provide a handle including the above-mentioned handle trigger adjustment device.

Please refer to Figures 1 to 3, Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the handle trigger adjustment device provided by this application; Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the bracket magnet positioned opposite the trigger magnet; Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of the bracket magnet positioned staggered from the trigger magnet.

The handle trigger adjustment device provided by this application is mainly used on the handle of a game handle or an interactive somatosensory device to realize the control and adjustment of the use experience of the trigger. The handle trigger adjustment device includes a trigger bracket, and also includes:

The trigger 1 is movably arranged on the trigger bracket, and the trigger 1 is provided with a trigger magnet 3;

The bracket magnet 2 is arranged on the trigger bracket, and the bracket magnet 2 and the trigger magnet 3 in the pressed state of the trigger 1 have a magnetic force;

The control device is used to control one of the bracket magnet 2 and the trigger magnet 3 to move along the length direction to adjust the projection area of the trigger magnet 3 on the bracket magnet 2.

The trigger bracket is usually set in the handle and used to set the trigger 1. The trigger 1 can move relative to the trigger bracket, including rotation or movement. In the present application, the trigger bracket can be fixed in the handle, or movably and fixedly arranged in the handle.

The trigger 1 is movably arranged on the trigger bracket. When pressed by an external force, the trigger 1 can move relative to the trigger bracket. A trigger magnet 3 is fixedly arranged on the trigger 1. The trigger magnet 3 has magnetism and can maintain the magnetism.

A bracket magnet 2 is provided on the trigger bracket, and the bracket magnet 2 and the trigger magnet 3 have a magnetic relationship of mutual attraction or mutual repulsion.

The control device is used to control one of the bracket magnet 2 or the trigger magnet 3 to move, so that the facing state of the bracket magnet 2 and the trigger magnet 3 is changed. Both the bracket magnet 2 and the trigger magnet 3 can be strip-shaped or plate-shaped magnets, and they are relatively close after the trigger 1 is pressed, and enter the magnetic field generated by the other side, so that the magnetic force acts. The two can be in a straight state or a staggered state, and both can be adjusted by the control device, that is, move along the length of one of them, so that the projected area of one on the other is changed, so that the two The magnitude of the magnetic force of the person changes.

It should be noted that the control adjustment refers to the comparison with the same state of the trigger 1, for example, the comparison with the time when the trigger 1 is fully pressed by force.

There is an attraction or repulsion force between the trigger magnet 3 and the bracket magnet 2. The control device is used to adjust the facing area between the bracket magnet 2 and the trigger magnet 3, that is, the projection of one on the other. It should be noted that the projection direction should be the direction of the connection between the two.

Taking two magnets as repulsion as an example, when the control device adjusts the bracket magnet 2 to move along its own length, it causes its projection area on the trigger magnet 3 to change. Within a certain range, the interaction between the two The repulsive force will decrease, and the force acting on the trigger magnet 3 will decrease. For the trigger 1 that has been pressed and the force is removed, the trigger 1 will be reduced at a relatively slower speed due to the reduced repulsive force. Reset with a small force, thereby giving the operator's hand a weaker resilience; conversely, when the area increases, the resilience increases.

In actual use, the user can provide a more realistic tactile experience to the user due to different use effects, such as simulating gun battles and gun battles. The control device moves the bracket magnet 2 or the trigger magnet 3 to provide the trigger 1 with different sizes of magnetic force. The variable magnetic force provides users with different trigger feedback forces, thereby providing users with different tactile feelings based on different game environments.

This application changes the force control of the two magnets facing the area, which can be used based on different game environments and game settings, allowing users to experience different tactile shocks when pulling the trigger, and experience the game belt in the change of trigger feedback force Come for more advanced fun.
