A modular peripheral device assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a handheld controller and an assembly base. The handheld controller includes a first haptic actuator configured to generate a haptic effect at the handheld controller. The assembly base includes an attachment component that is configured to be attachable to and detachable from the handheld controller, and a second haptic actuator configured to generate haptic a effect at the assembly base or at the handheld controller when it is attached to the attachment component. The assembly further includes a control unit configured to select, based on whether the handheld controller is attached to or detached from the assembly base, at least one of the first and second haptic actuators to generate a haptic effect.

The present invention discloses a joystick structure, including: a joystick, which includes an insertion portion; and a cartridge, including a buckle portion, the cartridge being further provided with a hollow portion. The buckle portion is used to clamp the insertion portion when the joystick is inserted into the hollow portion. The insertion portion and the buckle portion are designed to be separated from each other in structure and the joystick is mounted on the cartridge when used. This is convenient for mounting and use. When the joystick does not need to be used, an external force is applied to pull the insertion portion out of the buckle portion. The separation design makes the joystick detachable from the cartridge, reduces the size and is convenient for storage. The present invention further provides a remote controller having the foregoing structure.

The invention relates to a manually operable control device for controlling movable elements of a vehicle, said control device comprising a control rod element, which is mounted so as to be slidable within a first guide path of a first control disc and within a second guide path of a second control disc, the first guide path being designed differently from the second guide path and the two control discs being mounted so as to rotate independently of one another about a common axis in a continuous manner.

The present invention relates to a console (C) provided in air vehicles; at least one control stick (2) located on the console (C), providing mission input to the air vehicle by the user; at least one bracket (3) allowing the control stick (2) to be attached on the console (C).

The invention concerns a flight control device (1) for an aircraft, comprising:a housing (2),a handle (4) mounted rotating relative to the housing (2) about a centre of rotation (O),a first drive shaft (31), a second drive shaft (32) and a third drive shaft (33), the drive shafts (31-33) being mounted rotating relative to the housing (2) about a same axis of rotation (X),a first connecting part (34) mounted pivoting on the first shaft (31) about a first axis of rotation (A1), and on the handle (4) about a fourth axis of rotation (B.sub.1),a second connecting part (35) mounted pivoting on the second shaft (32) about a second axis of rotation (A.sub.2), and on the handle (4) about a fifth axis of rotation (B.sub.2),a third connecting part (36) mounted pivoting on the third shaft (33) about a third axis of rotation (A.sub.3), and on the handle (4) about a sixth axis of rotation (B.sub.3), the first axis of rotation (A.sub.1), the second axis of rotation (A.sub.2) and the third axis of rotation (A.sub.3) intersecting at the centre of rotation (O) of the handle (4).

A vehicle is provided. The vehicle may include: a cockpit including a cabin door; an inceptor, positioned on the cabin door, including at least a base portion and a controller portion; and a transition mechanism integrated into the cabin door that enables adjustment of the inceptor between a first configuration and a second configuration; wherein at least the controller portion of the inceptor is positioned outside of the cabin door in the first configuration; wherein the base portion and the controller portion of the inceptor are fully contained within a recess of the cabin door in the second configuration. Other aspects are described and claimed.

A storage-facilitated shaft joystick is provided, which relates to the technical field of game peripherals. The storage-facilitated shaft joystick includes a shell and a lever; one end of the lever is detachably assembled in the shell through a bolt; an unlocking end of the shell close to the bolt is movably provided with an unlocking hole cap for locking or unlocking the bolt; and a placement tray for storing the removed lever is arranged on the shell. By the adoption of the above technical solution, the storage-facilitated shaft joystick has reasonable overall structure, does not require an extra removal and storage tool, and has the advantages of practicability, quickness and convenience in removal and storage.

Systems and methods of adapting a work machine to operate a plurality of interchangeable work tools. Systems according to the disclosure employ interchangeable joystick controllers, each having different configurations optimized to the operator and/or the particular operating parameters and/or requirements of the selected work tool. Each of the joysticks has a standardized mechanical and/or electrical connection for attachment to the work machine via a standardized base. The base receives control communications from the selected/paired joystick and is configured to adapt the control communications to a standardized signal format such that the work machine operates the work tool according to inputs from the selected joystick.

A remote controller includes a fixed body equipped with pivots in a first axis and pivots in a second axis, together with an operating lever. The remote controlling further includes a main frame configured to pivot about the axes to transmit pivoting movement of the lever to a pivoting sensor. The main frame is coupled by pivots to the lever. The lever has two pairs of arms to control the pivoting of the main frame and the pivoting of the auxiliary frame. The auxiliary frame is coupled to the lever by an intermediate frame. The intermediate frame is coupled to the auxiliary frame by a swivel. The frames are located under a plane of the axes and the lever is located above the plane of the axes.

Aspects hereof relate to control devices for controlling features or functions of apparatuses and devices. At a high level, the control devices described herein provide an input locus that is positioned within a handle of the control devices. The input locus may have a fixed position such that the control device may resist movement in response to forces applied to the handle in force vectors passing through the input locus. Further, the handle may pivot or rotate about the input locus in response to forces applied to the handle in force vectors that are offset from the input locus to generate inputs and/or controls.
