另一方面,若驱动组件并未介入与承托件的配合,承托件的状态则会随操作杆的设置在壳体内的一端端面的倾斜变化而变化并压缩弹性件。而当用户撤销作用在操作杆上的操作时,弹性件则会释放之前受压时积蓄的弹性势能,推动承托件,从而通过承托件的承载面对操作杆的设置在壳体内的一端端面的抵顶“纠正”操作杆,使其设置在壳体内的一端端面由倾斜状态回到水平状态,实现操作杆的复位。
并且,需要说明的是,在本发明的技术方案中,驱动组件的输出是通过承托件而直接作用在操作杆上的,替换了相关技术中“通过调整摇杆装置中操作杆下方弹性件的压缩量来使弹力变化而实现力反馈”的方式,避免了该方式“由于摇杆装置内部空间狭小弹性件的弹力变化对用户的力反馈作用不明显”的缺陷。即,本发明的技术方案,还可使得力反馈体感更加明显,从而有利于为用户提供更为优质的力反馈体验。

关于驱动组件50如何通过承托件30输出反馈力至操作杆20,至少存在以下两种实施方式:
(1)如图1至图3所示,在本发明摇杆装置100一实施例中,承托件30包括承载部31和传动部32,承载部31位于操作杆20的下方,并被弹性件40顶紧在操作杆20的端部上,传动部32凸设于承载部31的背对操作杆20的一侧表面,用于承接驱动组件50的输出,以在驱动组件50的驱动下顶升承载部31。
可以理解地,本实施例的技术方案,利用弹性件40将承托件30顶紧在操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端上;此时,定义操作杆20在初始状态下呈竖直设置,操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端端面水平设置,承托件30的用于承托操作杆20端部的承载面311水平设置,并与操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端端面贴合设置,则:当操作杆20在用户的操作下发生转动时,操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端端面会由水平状态变化为倾斜状态,并与承托件30的承载面311呈夹角设置;在这过程中,操作杆20会对承托件30施加压力作用,使承托件30下沉;此时,若驱动组件50介入承托件30的下沉过程,为承托件30提供顶升作用,则会使承托件30的下沉过程受到阻碍,从而与用户施加在操作杆20上的操作产生对抗,实现力反馈输出,进而使用户获得更为优质的力反馈体验,满足用户对相关设备操作时的感官要求。
另一方面,若驱动组件50并未介入承托件30的下沉过程,承托件30则会在操作杆20的驱动下下沉并压缩弹性件40。而当用户撤销作用在操作杆20上的操作时,弹性件40则会释放之前受压时积蓄的弹性势能,推动承托件30上升,从而通过承托件30的承载面311对操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端端面的抵顶“纠正”操作杆20,使其设置在壳体10内的一端端面由倾斜状态回到水平状态,进而使操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端端面与承托件30的承载面311重新贴合,实现操作杆20的复位。
进一步地,本实施例的技术方案,将承托件30配置为了两部分结构——承载部31和传动部32:承载部31具有前述承载面311,用于与操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端端面相配合,以实现操作杆20的转动和复位;传动部32则用于与驱动组件50相配合,以在驱动组件50的驱动下顶升承载部31,从而在用户对操作杆20进行操作时,通过承载部31的承载面311对操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端端面进行抵顶,将力反馈作用输出至操作杆20。其中,承载部31的存在可以使承托件30与操作杆20的配合更加稳定和可靠,传动部31的存在则可以使驱动组件50与承托件30的配合更加稳定和可靠。
并且,需要说明的是,在本实施例的技术方案中,驱动组件50的输出是通过承托件30而直接作用在操作杆20上的,替换了相关技术中“通过调整摇杆装置100中操作杆20下方弹性件40的压缩量来使弹力变化而实现力反馈”的方式,避免了该方式“由于摇杆装置100内部空间狭小弹性件40的弹力变化对用户的力反馈作用不明显”的缺陷。即,本实施例的技术方案,还可使得力反馈体感更加明显,从而有利于为用户提供更为优质的力反馈体验。
此外,还需要说明的是,在本实施例的技术方案中,壳体10采用的是底壳11和顶盖12相互盖合的形式,以方便操作杆20、承托件30、弹性件40等部件的安装和固定,从而使摇杆装置100的整体性得以提升,便于其后续在电子设备内部的安装和固定。
(2)如图7、图8、图12以及图13所示,在本发明摇杆装置100一实施例中,承托件30为垫片,驱动组件50包括托盘51c,托盘51c设于垫片的下方并与垫片相对设置,弹性件40的一端抵顶在垫片上、另一端抵顶在托盘51c上,托盘51c沿操作杆20的轴向可升降设置,托盘51c在上升过程中压缩弹性件40后抵顶垫片的边缘,以使垫片带动操作杆20复位。
本实施例中,当托盘51c处于初始状态时,托盘51c由于弹性件40的抵顶作用,被顶紧在壳体10内腔的底壁上,使得托盘51c与垫片分离设置(即二者相互间隔一定距离);此时,操作杆20可以自由转动。而当托盘51c上升至与垫片的边缘抵顶时,托盘51c处于力反馈工作状态;此时,操作杆20的自由转动将受到限制,可实现力反馈输出。
具体地,本实施例的技术方案,利用弹性件40将承托件30(即垫片) 顶紧在操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端上;此时,定义操作杆20在初始状态下呈竖直设置,操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端端面水平设置,承托件30的用于承托操作杆20端部的承载面311(即垫片的承载面311,也即垫片的面向操作杆20的表面)水平设置,并与操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端端面贴合设置,则:当操作杆20在用户的操作下发生转动时,操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端端面会由水平状态逐步变化为倾斜状态;此时,垫片也随之由水平状态逐步变化为倾斜状态,使垫片呈一侧“下沉”的状态;此时,若托盘51c介入垫片的倾斜过程,在垫片倾斜的过程中抵顶垫片,则会使垫片的倾斜过程受到阻碍,从而与用户施加在操作杆20上的操作产生对抗,实现力反馈输出,进而使用户获得更为优质的力反馈体验,满足用户对相关设备操作时的感官要求。
即,当托盘51c处于初始状态时,托盘51c与垫片间隔,操作杆20的转动和复位过程可以自由进行;而当托盘51c由初始状态逐渐上升时,弹性件40将会被逐渐压缩,如果此时正好遇见操作杆20转动后呈倾斜装置,则托盘51c在上升至一定位置时,其边缘便会接触到垫片“下沉”的一侧;之后,托盘51c继续上升,会将垫片“下沉”的一侧逐渐顶升而使垫片由倾斜状态逐步回复至水平状态;在这过程中,通过垫片的承载面311对操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端端面的抵顶作用,也会“纠正”操作杆20,从而将力反馈作用输出至操作杆20。
另一方面,若托盘51c并未介入承托件30的下沉过程,垫片“下沉”的一侧则会对弹性件40的对应位置进行压缩。而当用户撤销作用在操作杆20上的操作时,弹性件40则会释放之前受压时积蓄的弹性势能,推动垫片“下沉”的一侧上升,使垫片由倾斜状态逐步回复至水平状态;此时,操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端端面也随之由倾斜状态逐步回复至水平状态,即通过垫片的承载面311对操作杆20的设置在壳体10内的一端端面的抵顶“纠正”操作杆20,实现操作杆20的复位。
并且,需要说明的是,在本实施例的技术方案中,驱动组件50的输出是通过托盘51c而直接作用在垫片上的,同时,垫片受到的自来托盘51c的作用也是直接作用在操作杆20上的,替换了相关技术中“通过调整摇杆装置100中操作杆20下方弹性件40的压缩量来使弹力变化而实现力反馈”的方 式,避免了该方式“由于摇杆装置100内部空间狭小弹性件40的弹力变化对用户的力反馈作用不明显”的缺陷。即,本实施例的技术方案,还可使得力反馈体感更加明显,从而有利于为用户提供更为优质的力反馈体验。
在本实施例的技术方案中,托盘51c由于可以升降,还可以用于调节弹性件40的预压量,从而实现对操作杆20在转动和复位过程中操作手感的调节,以满足不同用户对于操作手感的需求。
此外,还需要说明的是,在本实施例的技术方案中,壳体10采用的是底壳11和顶盖12相互盖合的形式,以方便操作杆20、承托件30、弹性件40等部件的安装和固定,从而使摇杆装置100的整体性得以提升,便于其后续在电子设备内部的安装和固定。
此外,还需要说明的是,在本实施例的技术方案中,操作杆20除了可以转动外,还可以在竖直方向上有一定的下沉空间,此时,通过将其中的X方向转轴22的远离X轴电位器70a的一端或Y方向转轴23的远离Y轴电位器70b的一端延长,以形成触发端,并在触发端下方配置按压开关80,便可利用操作杆20的下沉触发按压开关80,从而实现相关的功能。
在前述承托件30包括承载部31和传动部32的实施例下,还可以进行如下设计:
如图1至图3所示,在本发明摇杆装置100一实施例中,所述弹性件40套设于所述传动部32。本实施例中,承载部31呈盘状结构,传动部32呈柱状结构,盘状结构朝向操作杆20设置,柱状结构凸设于盘状结构的背对操作杆20的一侧表面。弹性件40采用的是弹簧。可以理解地,在本实施例的设计下,弹性件40的稳定性将得以提升,其与承托件30配合时的稳定性和可靠性将得以提升,承托件30与操作杆20配合时的稳定性和可靠性将得以提升,从而可使摇杆装置100的操作手感更佳。并且,采用这样的设计,在有力反馈的运行模式下,力反馈体验也将更加优异。
如图1至图3所示,在本发明摇杆装置100一实施例中,所述承托件30还包括第一导向部33,所述第一导向部33设于所述承载部31的边缘,所述壳体10的内侧壁设有与所述第一导向部33滑动配合的第二导向部111;
其中,当所述承托件30在所述驱动组件50的驱动下移动时,所述第一 导向部33相对于所述第二导向部111滑动。
可以理解地,利用第一导向部33和第二导向部111的滑动配合,可以使得承托件30在壳体10内的移动过程更加稳定,从而使得承托件30与弹性件40配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,使得承托件30与操作杆20配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,进而使摇杆装置100的操作手感更佳。并且,采用这样的设计,在有力反馈的运行模式下,力反馈体验也将更加优异。
如图1至图3所示,在本发明摇杆装置100一实施例中,所述第一导向部33的面向所述第二导向部111的表面开设有沿所述承托件30移动方向延伸设置的滑槽,所述第二导向部111为沿所述承托件30移动方向延伸设置的滑条,所述滑条至少部分收容在所述滑槽内。
可以理解地,具体采用滑条和滑槽进行配合的形式,可有效提升第一导向部33和第二导向部111的滑动配合面积,提升第一导向部33和第二导向部111滑动配合的稳定性,从而使得承托件30在壳体10内的移动过程更加稳定,使得承托件30与弹性件40配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,使得承托件30与操作杆20配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,进而使摇杆装置100的操作手感更佳。并且,采用这样的设计,在有力反馈的运行模式下,力反馈体验也将更加优异。
如图1至图3所示,在本发明摇杆装置100一实施例中,所述第一导向部33设有若干,若干所述第一导向部33沿所述承载部31的周向间隔设置;所述第二导向部111设有若干,若干所述第二导向部111沿所述壳体10的内侧壁的周向间隔设置;
每一所述第一导向部33与一所述第二导向部111滑动配合。
可以理解地,具体采用若干第一导向部33和若干第二导向部111一一对应配合的形式,可使得承托件30在壳体10内的移动过程更加稳定,使得承托件30与弹性件40配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,使得承托件30与操作杆20配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,进而使摇杆装置100的操作手感更佳。并且,采用这样的设计,在有力反馈的运行模式下,力反馈体验也将更加优异。
如图1至图3所示,在本发明摇杆装置100一实施例中,所述承载部31的面向所述操作杆20的一侧设有收容槽312,所述操作杆20的朝向所述承 载部31的一端至少部分收容在所述收容槽312内,以使所述操作杆20的朝向所述承载部31的一端端面与所述收容槽312的底壁贴合设置;
其中,所述操作杆20通过其朝向所述承载部31的一端端面与所述收容槽312的底壁呈夹角设置而驱使所述承载部31与所述驱动组件50形成对抗。
可以理解地,在本实施例的设计下,可以利用收容槽312的底壁构成前述实施例所述的承载面311,即承托件30的承载面311可以利用收容槽312的底壁形成。这样,不仅可以顺利实现前述操作杆20的朝向承载部31的一端端面与承托件30的承载面311的配合,而且还可以利用收容槽312的侧壁对操作杆20的朝向承载部31的一端在周向上形成限位,从而使得承托件30与操作杆20配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,进而使摇杆装置100的操作手感更佳。并且,采用这样的设计,在有力反馈的运行模式下,力反馈体验也将更加优异。
在前述承托件30包括承载部31和传动部32的实施例下,关于传动部32如何承接驱动组件50的输出而顶升承载部31,至少存在以下两种实施方式:
(1)如图1至图3所示,在本发明摇杆装置100一实施例中,所述传动部32的背离所述承载部31的一端伸出至所述壳体10外,所述驱动组件50设于所述壳体10的下方,并包括电机51a和拨杆52a,所述拨杆52a的一端固定于所述电机51a的输出轴,以使所述拨杆52a的另一端可在所述电机51a的驱动下推动所述传动部32朝所述操作杆20移动。
可以理解地,在本实施例的设计下,操作杆20和承托件30之间只存在抵顶关系而并不存在连接关系,承托件30与驱动组件50之间只存在抵顶关系而并不存在连接关系;这样,驱动组件50可以只用来提供承托件30被顶升时所需的动力,以驱使操作杆20由倾斜状态向竖直状态回复,而尽可能地不干预操作杆20、承托件30、弹性件40三者之间的其他配合过程;如此,将使得力反馈过程更加简单、直接且有效,使得力反馈体感更加明显,从而有利于为用户提供更为优质的力反馈体验。
并且,在本实施例的设计下,还可以自由切换有无力反馈的运行模式:有力反馈,触觉体验更加丰富;无力反馈,更加节电、节省能源消耗。
此外,需要说明的是,除了上述利用电机51a和拨杆52a对传动部32进行顶升的驱动方式外,本领域技术人员还可以采用其他有效且合理的方式对传动部32进行顶升,例如:采用气缸、电缸、丝杠、齿轮齿条等直线传动机构对传动部32进行顶升,在此不再一一赘述。
(2)如图4至图6所示,在本发明摇杆装置100一实施例中,所述传动部32的背离所述承载部31的一端形成有第一螺旋配合面321,所述驱动组件50包括转动件51b,所述转动件51b以所述操作杆20的轴线为旋转中心可转动地设置在所述传动部32的下方,所述转动件51b的朝向所述传动部32的一端形成有与所述第一螺旋配合面321相配合的第二螺旋配合面511b;
其中,当所述转动件51b相对于所述壳体10转动时,所述转动件51b通过所述第二螺旋配合面511b相对于所述第一螺旋配合面321的滑动,推动所述传动部32朝所述操作杆20移动。
可以理解地,在本实施例的设计下,可以通过两个螺旋型的配合面之间的相对滑动,使传动部32上升或下降,从而使承托件30上升或下降,进而实现力反馈的输出和撤销。
并且,在本实施例的设计下,传动部32不论是在上升过程,还是在下降过程,两个螺旋型的配合面始终可以贴合,从而可以使转动件51b和承托件30配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,使承托件30与操作杆20配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,进而使摇杆装置100的力反馈体验更加优异。
并且,在本实施例的设计下,操作杆20和承托件30之间只存在抵顶关系而并不存在连接关系,承托件30与驱动组件50之间只存在抵顶关系而并不存在连接关系;这样,驱动组件50可以只用来提供承托件30被顶升时所需的动力,以驱使操作杆20由倾斜状态向竖直状态回复,而尽可能地不干预操作杆20、承托件30、弹性件40三者之间的其他配合过程;如此,将使得力反馈过程更加简单、直接且有效,使得力反馈体感更加明显,从而有利于为用户提供更为优质的力反馈体验。
并且,在本实施例的设计下,还可以自由切换有无力反馈的运行模式:有力反馈,触觉体验更加丰富;无力反馈,更加节电、节省能源消耗。
并且,本发明的技术方案,利用的是转动件51b的转动对传动部32实施的顶升,转动件51b的转动相较于其他直线型的输出方式(如气缸)而言, 更加节省空间,从而有利于摇杆装置100的小型化,有利于其后续的安装和固定。

可以理解地,在本实施例的设计下,可以通过两个螺旋型的抵顶面20b之间的相对滑动,使托盘51c上升或下降,从而实现力反馈的输出和撤销。
并且,在本实施例的设计下,托盘51c不论是在上升过程,还是在下降过程,两个螺旋型的抵顶面20b始终可以贴合,从而可以使旋转件52c和托盘51c配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,使托盘51c上升后与垫片配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,进而可以使垫片与操作杆20配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,最终使摇杆装置100的力反馈体验更加优异。
并且,在本实施例的设计下,还可以自由切换有无力反馈的运行模式:有力反馈,触觉体验更加丰富;无力反馈,更加节电、节省能源消耗。
此外,需要说明的是,除了上述利用两个螺旋型的抵顶面20b之间的相互滑动控制托盘51c的升降外,本领域技术人员还可以采用其他有效且合理的方式控制托盘51c的升降,例如:采用气缸、电缸、丝杠、齿轮齿条等直线传动机构控制托盘51c的升降,在此不再一一赘述。因此,还可以理解地,本实施例的设计,利用的是旋转件52c的旋转对托盘51c实施升降控制,旋转件52c的旋转相较于其他直线型的输出方式(如气缸)而言,更加节省空间,从而有利于摇杆装置100的小型化,有利于其后续的安装和固定。

进一步参阅图11和图13,在本发明摇杆装置100一实施例中,所述旋转件52c的背离所述托盘51c的一端端面于其周缘形成有下沉的台阶结构522c,所述旋转件52c的背离所述托盘51c的一端端面伸入所述贯通孔114中,所述台阶结构522c的台面与所述壳体10的环绕所述贯通孔114的内表面抵接。
可以理解地,在本实施例的设计下,可以利用壳体10内腔的底壁对旋转件52c上台阶结构522c台面的抵接,使旋转件52c旋转时的稳定性得以提升,从而使旋转件52c和托盘51c配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,使托盘51c上升后与垫片配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,进而可以使垫片与操作杆20配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,最终使摇杆装置100的力反馈体验更加优异。
进一步参阅图13,在本发明摇杆装置100一实施例中,所述摇杆装置100还包括基板60,所述壳体10装设于所述基板60的一侧表面,所述电机53c装设于所述基板60的另一侧表面,所述电机53c的输出轴依次贯穿所述基板60、所述贯通孔114而与所述旋转件52c固定连接。
可以理解地,在本实施例的设计下,基板60的存在,可以为壳体10、电机53c的安装和固定提供一个稳定的基础,从而有利于壳体10中各部件之间的配合,进而使得垫片与弹性件40配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,使得垫片与操作杆20配合时的稳定性和可靠性得以提升,进而使摇杆装置100的操作手感更佳。这样,在有力反馈的运行模式下,力反馈体验也将更加优异。
一般地,基板60可以选用电路板,电路板除了可以实现基板60的承载功能,还能够实现与摇杆装置100中用电元器件的电性连接,使摇杆装置100 的电气化组装更加易于实现,以更好地减小延迟,实现精确化控制,最终使用户获得更为优质的力反馈体验,满足用户对相关设备的感官要求。
