技术领域
本申请涉及游戏机技术领域,特别涉及一种多方向输入装置、应用该多方向输入装置的手柄以及应用该手柄的游戏机。
背景技术
相关技术中的游戏机手柄的多方向输入装置一般包括有操作件、水平滑动件、弹性件、第一滑动件以及第二滑动件。其中,水平滑动件在操作件的驱动下能够在水平360度全方向的范围内滑动的;弹片和水平滑动件连接,并能够推动水平滑动件进行复位;呈正交设置的第一滑动件和第二滑动件在水平滑动件的驱动下能够分别在X、Y方向上滑动,之后通过检测第一滑动件和第二滑动件在X、Y方向上的滑动量并输出相应的信号即可实现该多方向输入装置根据用户对操作件的相应操作实现相应信号的输入。然而,该类多方向输入装置的水平滑动件在旋转使用时,水平滑动件会和弹性件用于推动其复位的一端发生碰撞而存在一定的冲击震动,使得该多方向输入装置在使用时具有相对较为强烈的跳动感而影响使用手感。
技术问题
本申请的主要目的是提供一种多方向输入装置,旨在减少多方向输入装置的操作件在使用时所受到的冲击震动,以使其在使用时没有明显的跳动感而改善使用手感。
技术解决方案
为实现上述目的,本申请提出的多方向输入装置包括:
壳体,所述壳体形成有容置腔,所述壳体还设有连通所述容置腔的开口部;
操作件,所述操作件设于所述容置腔内,并部分由所述开口部延伸至外界;
水平滑动件,所述水平滑动件设于所述容置腔内,并连接于所述操作件,所述水平滑动件可在水平360°全方向的范围内滑动;
弹性件,所述弹性件配置在所述水平滑动件的外周,以推动所述水平滑动件返回到原点位置;
第一滑动件和第二滑动件,所述第一滑动件和所述第二滑动件均设于所述容置腔内,并在所述水平滑动件的驱动下分别在X、Y方向上滑动;
第一可动接点和第二可动接点,所述第一可动接点和所述第二可动接点分别设于第一滑动件和第二滑动件上;以及
电路板,所述电路板设于所述容置腔内,所述电路板具有第一固定接点和第二固定接点,所述第一固定接点与所述第一可动接点进行电气性接触,所述第二固定接点和所述第二可动接点进行电气性接触的;
在所述水平滑动件与所述弹性件之间配置有缓冲件。
有益效果
本申请的技术方案多方向输入装置在使用时,通过操作件可驱动水平滑动件在水平360°全方向的范围内滑动,同时通过水平滑动件可以带动第一滑动件和第二滑动件分别沿X方向和Y方向滑动。此时,与第一滑动件连接的第一可动接点和与第二滑动件连接的第二可动接点也分别的随之沿X方向和Y方向滑动。之后通过电路板上的与第一可动接点进行电气性接触的第一固定接点和与第二可动接点进行电气性接触的第二固定接点,使得该电路板可以输出对应于第一滑动件和第二滑动件的滑动位置的输出信号,从而实现了多方向输入装置根据用户对操作件所进行的操作实现相应信号的输入。而在操作件被完成驱动后,由于水平滑动件设置有弹性件,通过该弹性件可提供使操作件回到原点位置的作用力,从而实现了多方向输入装置的操作件的自动复位。
并且,由于本方案中多方向输入装置的水平滑动件与弹性件之间设有缓冲件,通过该缓冲件可以对水平滑动件在被操作件驱动滑动过程中与弹性件发生碰撞而受到的冲击震动进行缓冲,降低该冲击震动通过操作件传递至用户的手部的可能,从而使得多方向输入装置在使用时没有明显的跳动感而改善使用手感。

本发明的实施方式
本申请提出一种多方向输入装置。
请结合参考图1至图5,在本申请的一实施例中,该多方向输入装置包括壳体10、操作件20、水平滑动件30、弹性件40、第一滑动件50、第二滑动件60、第一可动接点51、第二可动接点61、电路板70以及缓冲件80。其中,壳体10形成有容置腔11,壳体10还设有连通容置腔11的开口部12;操作件20设于容置腔11内,并部分由开口部12延伸至外界;水平滑动件30设于容置腔11内,并连接于操作件20,水平滑动件30在操作件20的驱动下可在水平360°全方向的范围内滑动;弹性件40设置在水平滑动件30的外周,以推动水平滑动件30返回到原点位置;第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60均设于容置腔11内,并在水平滑动件30的驱动下分别在X、Y方向上滑动(其中,在多方方向输入装置处于正常使用状态放置时,壳体10的开口部12朝上设置,X方向和Y方向在水平面上相垂直);第一可动接点51和第二可动接点61分别设于第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60上;电路板70设于容置腔11内,电路板70具有第一固定接点71和第二固定接点73,第一固定接点71与第一可动接点51进行电气性接触,第二固定接点73和第二可动接点61进行电气性接触的;在水平滑动件30与弹性件40之间配置有缓冲件80。
在本申请的一实施例中,壳体10可以用于形成容置腔11,通过该容置腔11可以对操作件20、水平滑动件30、第一滑动件50、第二滑动件60以及电路板70等零部件进行容置。如此通过该容置腔11的腔壁对位于容置腔11内的操作件20、水平滑动件30、第一滑动件50、第二滑动件60以及电路板70等零部件可以起到一定的保护作用,降低外界的水汽或者灰尘进入到容置腔11内而对位于容置腔11内的零件造成损坏的可能。同时,将操作件20、水平滑动件30、第一滑动件50、第二滑动件60以及电路板70均设于容置腔11内,也可以使得几者分布的更为紧凑,从而降低其对空间的占用。其中,该壳体10于水平面上的投影可以大致为圆形或者大致呈正多边形状,以使得该壳体10的形状较为规则而便于成型制造。进一步地,请结合参考图1和图5,该壳体10可以包括有上壳13和下壳14,上壳13连接于下壳14,并和下壳14围合形成容置腔11,上壳13设有开口部12。如此使得上壳13和下壳14可以独立制造,之后组装形成整体,从而降低了对容置腔11的成型的复杂度。为了提搞对多方向输入装置维修更换的便利性,壳体10的上壳13和下壳14可以为可拆卸连接,例如可以为卡扣连接、磁吸固定或者螺钉连接等,以简化上壳13和下壳14的连接过程而提高拆装效率。操作件20可以用于供用户操作,并通过驱动该操作件20而使得水平滑动件30、第一滑动件50以及第二滑动件60等随之被驱动。其中,操作件20可以在是呈长条状的圆杆结构,并在上下方向上延伸设置。进一步地,为了便于用户对该操作件20施加作用力,操作件20由开口部12凸出延伸至外界的一端可以设有操作盘21,该操作盘21于水平面上的投影可以呈圆形状设置,且操作盘21投影覆盖操作件20于水平面上的投影,也即该操作盘21的面积大于操作件20的面积。而操作件20位于容置腔11内的一端则和水平滑动件30连接,以使得操作件20在被驱动时带动该水平滑动件30转动。请参考图3,水平滑动件30可以用于在跟随操作件20移动时,使其可以带动第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60分别于X、Y方向上进行滑动(当然,于其他实施例中,第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60直接由操作件20带动也是可以的)。其中,壳体10内可以设有支撑架15,该支撑架15的下端抵接于壳体10的下壳14,水平滑动件30可以是可转动地设于支撑架15的上端和壳体10的上壳13之间。当然,于其他实施例中,壳体10的上壳13的内侧壁形成有环形槽以容置该水平滑动件30也是可以的。而为了使得该水平滑动件30在壳体10内滑动的较为顺畅,该水平滑动件30于水平面上的投影可以为圆形状。请参考图2,弹性件40可以用于提供弹力,用以驱动水平滑动件30在被操作件20带动后进行相应的复位,进而实现操作件20的自动复位。其中,弹性件40于水平面上的投影大致为C子形状的弹片,该弹片的相对的两端抵接于水平滑动件30的外周面,用于在水平滑动件30被操作件20带动后推动其复位,弹片的中部可以连接于壳体10的上壳13。另外,弹片的数量可以为多个,多个弹片围绕圆环部37的中心依次分布。第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60可以跟随水平滑动件30被操作件20驱动时进行相应的移动,同时使得第一可动接点51和第二可动接点61随之进行相应的移动,并通过电路板70上的分别与该第一可动接点51和第二可动接点61电性连接的第一固定接点71和第二固定接点73输入对应于第一可动接点51和第二可动接点61的滑动量的信号,之后再由电路板70的输出端输出相应的控制信号。其中,电路板70可以是连接于壳体10的下壳14,并位于第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60的下方。而第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60可以是位于支撑架15和壳体10的下壳14之间,同时第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60还可滑动的连接于支撑架15。具体而言,请结合参考图3和图4,第一滑动件50面向开口部12的表面形成有沿X方向的第一滑槽53,第二滑动件60面向开口部12的方向形成有沿Y方向的第二滑槽63;支撑架15对应第一滑槽53和第二滑槽63的位置分别设设置有第一凸块151和第二凸块153,第一凸块151容纳于第一滑槽53内,第二凸块153容纳于第二滑槽63内。同时,第一滑动件50设有贯穿其面向和背离壳体10的开口部12的表面的第一开口55,第一开口55沿Y方向延伸开设。第二滑动件60设有贯穿其面向和背离壳体10的开口部12的表面的第二开口65,第二开口65沿X方向延伸开设。水平滑动件30背离开壳体10的口部的表面设有方框31,方框31远离水平滑动件30的一端穿过支撑架15而插设于第一开口55和第二开口65内,并抵接于第一开口55在X方向上的相对的两个内壁面和第二开口65在Y方向上的相对的两个内壁面,以带动在第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60分别在X、Y方向上滑动。另外,第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60于水平面上的投影可以大致均呈长方形状,以使得该第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60的形状较为规则。缓冲件80可以用于对水平滑动件30在对操作件20的带动过程中所受到的震动冲击进行缓冲,以便使得操作件20在驱动过程中较为平稳。其中,缓冲件80的材质为硅胶,以使其具有一定的弹性而起到缓冲减震作用,同时成本较低而降低缓冲件80的制造成本。当然,该缓冲件80也可以为橡胶件或者其他具有一定弹性的塑胶件。而水平滑动件30则可以为硬度相对较高的塑胶件,以使得该水平滑动件30的质量相对较轻而便于用户操作。
本申请的技术方案多方向输入装置在使用时,通过操作件20可驱动水平滑动件30在水平360°全方向的范围内滑动,同时通过水平滑动件30可以带动第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60分别沿X方向和Y方向滑动。此时,与第一滑动件50连接的第一可动接点51和与第二滑动件60连接的第二可动接点61也分别的随之沿X方向和Y方向滑动。之后通过电路板70上的与第一可动接点51进行电气性接触的第一固定接点71和与第二可动接点61进行电气性接触的第二固定接点73,使得该电路板70可以输出对应于第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60的滑动位置的输出信号,从而实现了多方向输入装置根据用户对操作件20所进行的操作实现相应信号的输入。而在操作件20被完成驱动后,由于水平滑动件30设置有弹性件40,通过该弹性件40可提供使操作件20回到原点位置的作用力,从而实现了多方向输入装置的操作件20的自动复位。
并且,由于本方案中多方向输入装置的水平滑动件30与弹性件40之间配置有缓冲件80,通过该缓冲件80可以对水平滑动件30在被操作件20驱动滑动过程中与弹性件40发生碰撞而受到所受到的冲击震动进行缓冲,降低该冲击震动通过操作件20传递至用户的手部的可能,从而使得多方向输入装置在使用时没有明显的跳动感而改善使用手感。
在本申请的一实施例中,操作件20和水平滑动件30是一体的。此时,将操作件20和水平滑动件30设置为一体结构,可以增大两者在连接处的强度,从而有利于提高该操作件20和水平滑动件30的整体强度而延长使用寿命。同时,如此设置,也使得两者可以通过一体成型制造,以简化两者的加工工艺而有利于提高生产效率。当然,本申请不限于此,于其他实施例中,操作件20和水平滑动件30呈分体设置也是可以的。
请参考图6,在本申请的一实施例中,缓冲件80为环形状结构,并沿水平滑动件30的外周面环绕设置。
可以理解,缓冲件80为环形,可以使得该缓冲件80在水平滑动件30的周缘的各个方向上均具有减震效果,从而提高该缓冲件80对水平滑动件30在并驱动过程中所受到的冲击震动的缓冲作用。同时,也使得该缓冲件80为环形的一个整体结构,便于一次性的安装于水平滑动件30,从而能够提高缓冲件80的安装效率。当然,本申请不限于此,于其他实施例中,该缓冲件80也可以由多个弧形段组成,此时多个弧形段可以沿水平滑动件30的周缘间隔环绕设置。
请结合参考图2、图6、图8、图9、图10或者图11,在本申请的一实施例中,水平滑动件30包括呈分体构成的圆盘部35和圆环部37,操作件20贯穿插入圆盘部35内,圆环部37套设于圆盘部35的外侧,圆环部37的外周面配置有弹性件40,在操作件20的驱动下驱动圆环部35在X、Y方向上滑动(具体地可以通过圆盘部35带动圆环部37),通过操作件20、水平滑动件30整体或圆盘部35驱动第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60分别在X、Y方向上滑动(也即,第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60可以是由操作件20驱动,也可以是由水平滑动件30带动,亦或者是由圆盘部35带动);缓冲件80设于圆盘部35和圆环部37之间,或者设于圆环部37的外周面。
可以理解,水平滑动件30包括呈分体构成的圆盘部35和圆环部37,使得操作件20在被驱动时是通过圆盘部35间接带动圆环部37的。与此同时,配置在圆环部37外周的弹性件40在圆环部37被圆盘部35带动时所产生的形变阻力仅作用于该圆环部37上,之后通过圆盘部35间接的对操作件20产生的摩擦阻力。此时,由于圆盘部35和圆环部37均呈圆形状而可以发生一定的相对旋转运动,使得圆盘部35和操作件20之间所产生摩擦阻力相对较小。而且弹性件40所产生的形变阻力是通过圆盘部35间接的作用于操作件20上,该阻力在传递过程存在的损耗也可以进一步地削弱圆盘部35和操作件20之间所产生摩擦阻力。如此大幅度地降低操作件20在使用时所受到的摩擦阻力,从而提高了该多方向输入装置操作时的顺滑度,使得具有手感顺滑而进一步地无明显停顿、跳动或者阻涩的感觉。其中,水平滑动件30的圆盘部35上设有用于带动第一滑动件50和第二滑动件60滑动的方框31。同时,水平滑动件30的圆盘部35和操作件20的下端相插设连接。另外,操作件20可以是与圆盘部35为一体结构。
请结合参考图6、图7以及图8,在本申请的一实施例中,当缓冲件80设于圆盘部35和圆环部37之间时,圆盘部35的外周面设有以谷部位于圆盘部35中心侧的方式形成的圆盘部凹槽351,在缓冲件80的纵截面中,缓冲件80朝向圆盘部35缩小,以与圆盘部凹槽351相适配嵌合。
可以理解,将缓冲件80靠近圆盘部35的一侧的部分嵌设于圆盘部凹槽351内,使得通过该圆盘部凹槽351可以对缓冲件80起到限位作用,降低缓冲件80和圆盘部35在水平滑动件30被操作件20驱动的过程中发生脱离的可能,从而有利于缓冲件80对水平滑动件30进行正常、稳定的缓冲减震。而在缓冲件80的纵截面中,缓冲件80朝向圆盘部35缩小,使得可以增大两者的接触面积而提高抵接限位效果。其中,该圆盘部凹槽351沿圆盘部35的外周面设置。
请结合参考图7和图8,在本申请的一实施例中,缓冲件80的外周面设有以谷部位于缓冲件80中心侧的方式形成的缓冲件凹槽83,圆环部37在对应缓冲件凹槽83的位置设有定位筋371,定位筋371嵌设于缓冲件凹槽83内。
可以理解,通过定位筋371和缓冲件凹槽83的抵接限位作用,可以进一步地降低缓冲件80和圆环部37在水平滑动件30被操作件20驱动的过程中发生脱离的可能,从而进一步地有利于缓冲件80对水平滑动件30进行正常、稳定的缓冲减震。其中,缓冲件凹槽83可以是沿缓冲件80的周缘环绕设置,定位筋371对应的设置成环形状,以便在缓冲件80的周缘上的各个方向上均具有限位抵接作用。同时,如此设置也可以使得该缓冲件凹槽83和定位筋371的结构较为简单,从而提高成型加工的便利性。当然,本申请不限于此,于其他实施例中,缓冲件凹槽83也可以是呈弧形状,此时缓冲件80的外周面可以设有多个缓冲件凹槽83,多个缓冲件凹槽83沿缓冲件80的周缘方向间隔设置,圆环部37上则沿其周缘方向上对应的设置多个呈弧形状的定位筋371,一个定位筋371嵌设于一个缓冲件凹槽83内的即可。
请结合参考图9和图10,在本申请的一实施例中,当缓冲件80设于圆盘部35和圆环部37之间时,圆盘部35的外周面和缓冲件80的内周面的纵截面形状为互补形状,圆盘部35的外周面和缓冲件80的内周面通过互补形状而嵌合,以限制缓冲件80的移动。
可以理解,直接将圆盘部35的外周面和缓冲件80的内周面的纵截面形状为互补形状,能够使得圆盘部35和缓冲件80的结构更为简单,从而有利于提高对两者制造的便利性。其中,互补形状可以理解为圆盘部35的外周面和缓冲件80的内周面的其中之一外凸,其中之另一内凹,使得两者相适配抵接限位,从而实现限制缓冲件80的在向上和/或向下的移动。
请参考图9,在本申请的一实施例中,当缓冲件80设于圆盘部35和圆环部37之间时,圆盘部35的外周面和缓冲件80的内周面的纵截面形状为互补的阶梯形状,以通过互补的阶梯形状限制缓冲件80的竖直向下的移动。
可以理解,由于圆盘部35的外周面和缓冲件80的内周面的纵截面形状为互补的阶梯形状,使得缓冲件80在安装于圆盘部35上时,可以在上下方向上直接对接安装,从而有利于提高两者安装的便利性。当然,本申请不限于此,于其他实施例中,请参考图10,在圆盘部35的外周面形成有纵截面为矩形的凹槽357,缓冲件80的内周面的纵截面形状与圆盘部35的外周面的凹槽357互补。如此通过圆盘部35的外周面和缓冲件80的内周面嵌合,以限制缓冲件80的竖直向下以及向上的移动也是可以的。
请结合参考图11、图12以及图13,在本申请的一实施例中,当缓冲件80设于圆环部37的外周面时,圆环部37的外周面设有以谷部位于缓冲件80中心侧的方式形成的圆环部凹槽373,缓冲件80的内侧周面设有凸筋85,在缓冲件80的纵截面中,凸筋85朝向圆环部缩小,以与圆环部凹槽373相适配嵌合。
可以理解,通过圆环部凹槽373和凸筋85的限位作用,使得对圆环部37和缓冲件80在上下方向上具有限位作用,降低两者在水平滑动件30被操作件20驱动的过程中发生脱离的可能,从而有利于缓冲件80对水平滑动件30进行正常、稳定的缓冲减震。其中,圆环部凹槽373可以是沿圆环部37的周缘环绕设置,凸筋85对应的设置成环形状,以便在缓冲件80的周缘上均具有限位抵接作用。同时,如此设置也可以使得该圆环部凹槽373和凸筋85的结构较为简单,从而提高成型加工的便利性。当然,本申请不限于此,于其他实施例中,圆环部凹槽373也可以是呈弧形状,此时圆环部37的外周面可以设有多个圆环部凹槽373,多个圆环部凹槽373沿圆环部37的周缘方向间隔设置,缓冲件80上则沿其周缘方向上对应的设置多个呈弧形状的凸筋85,一个凸筋85嵌设于一个圆环部凹槽373内即可。另外,弹性件40的两端可以包裹于缓冲件80的外侧。而圆环部37和圆盘部35之间在上下方向上的限位可以是,圆环部37的内侧周面设有台阶375,台阶375沿所述圆环部37的周向环绕设置;圆盘部35的外周面设有凸起353,凸起353沿圆盘部35的周向环绕设置,并抵接于该台阶375内。
请结合参考图14和图15,在本申请的一实施例中,当水平滑动件30未设置成分体构成的圆盘部35和圆环部37时(也即水平滑动件30为一个整体结构),水平滑动件30的外周面设有以谷部位于水平滑动件30中心侧的方式形成的水平滑动件凹槽33,水平滑动件凹槽33的纵截面为V字状,缓冲件80对应水平滑动件凹槽33的位置设有限位筋81,限位筋81的形状与水平滑动件凹槽33的形状相适配,并嵌设于水平滑动件凹槽33内。
可以理解,通过水平滑动件凹槽33和限位筋81的限位作用,使得对水平滑动件30和缓冲件80在上下方向上具有限位作用,降低两者在水平滑动件30被操作件20驱动的过程中发生脱离的可能,从而有利于缓冲件80对水平滑动件30进行正常、稳定的缓冲减震。而水平滑动件凹槽33的纵截面为V字状,可以增大水平滑动件凹槽33和限位筋81的接触面积,从而提高两者的抵接限位效果。其中,水平滑动件凹槽33可以是沿水平滑动件30的周缘环绕设置,限位筋81对应的设置成环形状,以便在缓冲件80的周缘上均具有限位抵接作用。同时,如此设置也可以使得该水平滑动件凹槽33和限位筋81的结构较为简单,从而提高成型加工的便利性。当然,本申请不限于此,于其他实施例中,水平滑动件凹槽33也可以是呈弧形状,此时水平滑动件30的外周面可以设有多个水平滑动件凹槽33,多个水平滑动件凹槽33沿水平滑动件30的周缘方向间隔设置,缓冲件80上则沿其周缘方向上对应的设置多个呈弧形状的限位筋81,一个限位筋81嵌设于一个水平滑动件凹槽33内的即可。另外,弹性件40的两端可以包裹于缓冲件80的外侧。
本申请还提出一种手柄,该手柄包括多方向输入装置,该多方向输入装置的具体结构参照上述实施例,由于本手柄采用了上述所有实施例的全部技术方案,因此至少具有上述实施例的技术方案所带来的所有有益效果,在此不再一一赘述。
本申请还提供一种游戏机。游戏机包括手柄,该手柄的具体结构参照上述实施例,由于本游戏机采用了上述所有实施例的全部技术方案,因此至少具有上述实施例的技术方案所带来的所有效果,在此不再一一赘述。
以上所述仅为本申请的优选实施例,并非因此限制本申请的专利范围,凡是在本申请的发明构思下,利用本申请说明书及附图内容所作的等效结构变换,或直接/间接运用在其他相关的技术领域均包括在本申请的专利保护范围内。
