A multidirectional input device includes an operation input part, a base, and a load detector. The operation input part includes an operation stick, two coupled parts configured to convert a tilt of the operation stick into two rotation angles orthogonal to each other, at least one return spring configured to return the operation stick to an upright position, and a frame accommodating the two coupled parts, the at least one return spring, and a part of the operation stick. The base has a plate shape and is provided below the frame. The load detector is provided on the frame or the base and is configured to detect a load applied to the frame.
Joystick device and a method of manufacturing thereof
A joystick device including a hollow housing having an endless boundary structure and a ceiling structure with an opening; a control-stick having a head portion and a stem portion, the hollow housing surrounding the stem portion with the head portion outside the hollow housing; and a plurality of biasing curved arm members extending outwardly from the stem portion and movable with the control-stick as a whole relative to the hollow housing along a plane at least substantially perpendicular to the stem portion. Each of the plurality of biasing curved arm members having a curved segment with a convex side directed towards a respective corresponding portion of the endless boundary structure so as to bias the stem portion when the control-stick is being moved towards said portion. The plurality of biasing curved arm members being distributed around the stem portion so as to cooperate with each other to centre the control-stick.
REMOTE CONTROL AND MOTORIZED DEVICE
The present invention relates to the field of remote-control technology, and provides a remote control for remotely controlling a motorized device, the remote control including a first rocking lever device, a second rocking lever device, a processor and a signal transmitting device. A rod of the first rocking lever device is configured to perform a linear movement along a first direction and a second direction, so as to trigger the remote control to generate a first remote control instruction and a second remote control instruction, and is further configured to rotate along a third rotation direction and a fourth rotation direction, so as to trigger the remote control to generate a third direction and a fourth direction. The first direction is opposite to the second direction, and the third direction is opposite to the fourth direction. The processor is connected to the first rocking lever device and the second rocking lever device to process the first remote control instruction, the second remote control instruction, the third remote control instruction and the fourth remote control instruction.
OPERATION DEVICE
An operation device includes a lever configured to be tiltable; a substrate; a first resistor disposed on the substrate to extend in a first direction; a first actuator configured to rotate in accordance with tilting of the lever; and a first holder configured to hold a first slider and cause the first slider to slide on the first resistor by moving in the first direction via a first drive transmission part in accordance with rotation of the first actuator. The first drive transmission part includes a first protrusion integrated with the first holder and protruding in a second direction, and a first engagement portion integrated with the first actuator and including a pair of holding pieces configured to hold the first protrusion from both sides in the first direction. A first holding piece of the holding pieces is more elastic than a second holding piece of the holding pieces.
MOUNTING DEVICE FOR A JOYSTICK CONFIGURED FOR CONTROLLING A VEHICLE
The present invention relates to a mounting device (30) for a joystick (10), the mounting device (30) comprising a first and second mounting element (32, 34), a spring element (36) and a ball element (38). The two mounting elements (32, 34) are rotatably attached to allow rotation of the joystick (10) about a central axis (22) of yaw rotation. The spring element (36) is mounted to the first mounting element (32) and urges the ball element (38) against a ball support surface (50) of the second mounting element (34). The ball support surface (50) is inclined such that rotation of the stick element (16) about the central axis (22) away from a neutral yaw position causes increase of tension in the spring element (36), biasing the joystick (10) towards the neutral yaw position. Further, the invention relates to a joystick (10) and a marine vessel.
REMOTE CONTROL AND ROCKER DEVICE THEREOF
The present invention provides a remote control and a rocker device thereof, wherein a torsional spring is sleeved on each of a first rotating device and a second rotating device. When a handle is operated along a left-right direction of the X axis, the handle drives the second rotating device to move, and two legs of the torsional spring on the second rotating device are limited by a limiting block to generate reverse torsion. When the handle is released, the second rotating device resets under the action of the reverse torsion of the torsional spring, to bring the handle to the neutral position. A similar process is used for an operation along the Y axis. When the handle is operated along a direction other than the X axis and the Y axis, the handle drives the first rotating device and the second rotating device to move at the same time.
Operation device for inproving accuracy of value of output signal indicating a neutral position
An operation device includes a lever configured to be tiltable; a substrate; a first resistor disposed on the substrate to extend in a first direction; a first actuator configured to rotate in accordance with tilting of the lever; and a first holder configured to hold a first slider and cause the first slider to slide on the first resistor by moving in the first direction via a first drive transmission part in accordance with rotation of the first actuator. The first drive transmission part includes a first protrusion integrated with the first holder and protruding in a second direction, and a first engagement portion integrated with the first actuator and including a pair of holding pieces configured to hold the first protrusion from both sides in the first direction. A first holding piece of the holding pieces is more elastic than a second holding piece of the holding pieces.
Elastic force transducer
An input device is disclosed. In various embodiments, the input device includes a spring having a free end and a fixed end. A force transducer having a transducer beam is coupled to the free end of the spring in a manner such that a free end of the transducer beam extends away from the free end of the spring.
