In an embodiment of the present invention, the cover 10 can be mainly used to shield and protect the upper supporting body 71, the first swing arm 31, the second swing arm 33, and the operating body 20, so as to reduce the possibility of damage to the upper supporting body, the first swing arm 31, the second swing arm 33, and the operating body 20, thereby prolonging the service life of the multi-directional input device. Wherein, the projection of the cover cap 10 on the horizontal plane may be substantially square, the cover cap 10 may specifically include a bottom wall and a side wall, the bottom wall and the base 50 are oppositely disposed, and an opening 11 is formed; the side walls are circumferentially disposed along the periphery of the bottom wall and extend in a direction facing the base 50, with the ends of the side walls remote from the top wall being connected to the base 50. In order to facilitate the maintenance and replacement of the components inside the cover 10, the sidewall of the cover 10 may be detachably connected to the base 50, specifically, may be fixed by screws, snaps, or magnetic attraction, so as to simplify the assembly and disassembly process of the cover 10. Of course, the present application is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the cover 10 may be fixedly connected to the base 50. The operation body 20 is mainly used for being driven by a user and performing corresponding tilting motion to input a corresponding motion signal. For example: by driving the operating body 20 to tilt forward, backward, leftward or rightward, a forward, backward, leftward or rightward motion signal can be correspondingly input. The operation portion 21 of the operation body 20 is exposed to the outside of the cover 10 by passing through the opening 11 of the cover 10, and the projection of the operation portion 21 on the horizontal plane may be circular. Upper hemispherical portion 23 of operating body 20 is adapted to be connected to upper support 71 to effect a spherical swivel fit of operating body 20. Wherein, the upper hemispherical part 23 is in a hemispherical shape, the upper surface of the upper hemispherical part 23 is a spherical surface and is connected with the lower end of the operation part 21; upper hemispherical portion 23 has a planar lower surface and forms hemispherical plane portion 25. The first rocker arm 31 and the second rocker arm 33 are sequentially penetrated by the operating portion 21 of the operating body 20, and are mainly used for driving the operating portion 21 of the operating body 20 to rotate correspondingly, and the rotation amounts of the first rocker arm 31 and the second rocker arm 33 are detected by the first rotating electric component 41 and the second rotating electric component 43 respectively, so that corresponding signals are output according to the rotation amounts. When the X direction and the Y direction are defined on the horizontal plane to be perpendicular to each other, the rotation axis of the first swing arm 31 may be along one of the X direction and the Y direction, and the rotation axis of the second swing arm 33 may be along the other of the X direction and the Y direction. The first rocker arm 31 and the second rocker arm 33 may be substantially C-shaped in a vertical plane, and opposite ends of the first rocker arm 31 and the second rocker arm 33 are rotatably connected to the side wall of the cover 10 through a rotating shaft. And the first rotary electric part 41 may be provided outside the cover 10 and connected to the first swing arm 31; a second rotary electric component 43 can likewise be provided on the outside of the cover 10 and connected to the first rocker 31. Since the detection of the rotation amounts of the first swing arm 31 and the second swing arm 33 by the first rotary electric component 41 and the second rotary electric component 43 is prior art, the operation principle thereof will not be described in detail here. The base 50 is mainly used for fixing the components such as the cover 10 and the upper supporter 71, and has a bearing and supporting function. The push switch 60 is mainly used to detect a pushing operation of the operating body 20 and output a corresponding operation signal. Since the operation principle of the push switch 60 is prior art, it will not be described in detail herein. The push switch 60 may be triggered by the direct contact of the operating body 20 when the operating body 20 is pushed, or may be triggered by the indirect contact of the operating body 20 when the operating body 20 is pushed. The upper supporter 71 may be used mainly to limit the operating body 20 so that the reaction force of the operating body 20 cannot act on the first swing arm 31 and the second swing arm 33 between the upper supporter 71 and the top wall of the cover 10 after being driven. The upper supporter 71 may be substantially cylindrical, and has a hemispherical hole 711 and a through hole 713 communicating with the hemispherical hole 711 formed at an upper end thereof, and an inner top wall connected to the hemispherical hole 711 is formed as an upper supporter plane 715; the lower end of the upper supporter 71 is connected to the base 50, and the upper supporter 71 and the base 50 may be detachably connected to facilitate maintenance and replacement of the upper supporter 71 and the operating body 20 positioned in the upper supporter 71. Specifically, the upper supporting body 71 and the base 50 may be fixed by clamping, screwing, magnetic attraction, or the like, so as to simplify the dismounting manner of the upper supporting body 71. Further, since through hole 28 is provided in the center of operation body 20, through hole 28 penetrates from operation portion 21 to lower hemispherical portion 2, and through hole 28 is provided in the center of operation body 20, it is possible to reduce the weight of operation body 20, improve the convenience of operation body 20, and reduce the raw materials required for production of operation body 20, thereby reducing the production cost of operation body 20.
The operating body 20 of the multi-directional input device of the technical scheme of the utility model comprises an operating part 21 and an upper hemispherical part 23, wherein the operating part 21 can be used for the operation of a user; upper hemispherical portion 23 may be used to limit and fix operation body 20, specifically, upper hemispherical portion 23 and the hole wall of hemispherical hole 711 of upper supporting body 71 are in abutting fit, and upper hemispherical portion 23 may be limited by the hole wall of hemispherical hole 711. Compared with the multi-directional input device in the prior art, the operating body 20 is limited by one of the first rocker arm 31 and the second rocker arm 33, so that after the operating body 20 is driven by a user, the generated reaction force can act on the first rocker arm 31 or the second rocker arm 33 which limits the operating body 20, and the operating body 20 generates hand feeling difference when driving both the first rocker arm 31 and the second rocker arm 33. When the operating body 20 of the multidirectional input device in this embodiment is driven by the user, the reaction force generated by the operating body 20 acts only on the upper hemispherical portion 23 of the operating body 20 and the upper support 71 that restricts the operating body 20, and does not act on the first rocker arm 31 and the second rocker arm 33. That is, the first rocker arm 31 and the second rocker arm 33 are only subjected to the driving force of the operating body 20, and are not affected by the counter-positive acting force, so that the difference in the feel does not occur when the first rocker arm 31 and the second rocker arm 33 are operated in different directions. In addition, the upper hemispherical portion 23 of the operating body 20 in this embodiment is hemispherical, so that the operating body 20 and the upper supporting body 71 are in spherical rotation fit, and the multi-directional input device can be operated arbitrarily in the 360-degree direction.
Referring to fig. 4, in an embodiment of the present invention, when the operating body 20 is in a vertical state, the hemispherical plane portion 25 and the upper supporting body plane portion 715 are in a coplanar structure.
It will be appreciated that hemispherical plane portion 25 and upper support plane portion 715 lie in the same plane, i.e., the aperture wall of hemispherical aperture 711 and upper hemispherical portion 23 have a relatively modest area of abutment. Thus, when the operating body 20 is driven, the hole wall of the hemispherical hole 711 can guide and limit the upper hemispherical portion 23 well, and the smoothness of driving the operating body 20 can be ensured without causing large friction force to the upper hemispherical portion 23. Of course, it should be noted that the present application is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, when the operating body 20 is not in the vertical state, the hemispherical plane portion 25 may be higher or lower than the upper support plane portion 715.

At the same time, hemispherical concave portion 731 also has a certain supporting effect on operation body 20, and thus, the stability of mounting operation body 20 can be improved. Wherein, lower hemispherical portion 27 is hemispherical, its upper surface is a plane and is connected to hemispherical plane portion 25, and the center of sphere of lower hemispherical portion 27 and the center of sphere of upper hemispherical portion 23 are located at the same point; the lower surface of lower hemispherical portion 27 is spherical and can be in contact with hemispherical concave portion 731 of lower support 73.

It is understood that the pressing bracket 80 is disposed such that the pressing switch 60 can be indirectly pressed by the pressing bracket 80 when the operating body 20 is pressed, and in this case, the pressing switch 60 is not required to be disposed below the lower support 73, and may be disposed at one side of the lower support 73 and outside the cover 10. This reduces the need for the mounting position of the push switch 60, and can improve the ease of mounting the push switch 60. Meanwhile, the arrangement can ensure that all parts of the multidirectional input device are more compactly distributed in the vertical direction, and the overall volume of the multidirectional input device is reduced, so that the multidirectional input device can be managed and carried. The specific pressing process comprises the following steps: the lower hemispherical portion 27 lowers and drives the hemispherical concave portion 731, and presses the lower portion of the lower support 73 against the pressing bracket, one end of the pressing bracket 80 abuts against the base 50 to form a fulcrum 81, and the pressing bracket 80 abuts against the fulcrum 81 of the base 50 and the other end of the pressing bracket 80 to press the pressing switch 60 together to trigger the pressing switch 60 to perform an electrical operation. One end of the pressing bracket 80 is located between the lower support 73 and the base 50 and abuts against the base 50, and the other end extends above the press switch 60 through the upper support 71 and the cover 10. In order to improve the stability of the lower support body 73 in the lifting process, the lower end of the lower support body 73 may be provided with a guide post, the guide post extends downward, the base 50 is correspondingly provided with a guide hole, and the guide post is inserted into the guide hole. The lower support body 73 is guided to move in the up-down direction by the cooperation of the guide posts and the guide holes. In addition, the push switch 60 may be detachably coupled to the base 50 in order to facilitate maintenance and replacement of the push switch 60 when damage thereto occurs. Specifically, the push switch 60 can be fixed to the base 50 by snap-fit, screw connection, or magnetic attraction. In order to further improve the stability of the installation of the push switch 60, the base 50 may be provided with a receiving portion adapted to the shape of the push switch 60, and a portion of the push switch 60 is embedded in the receiving portion. In an embodiment of the present invention, the lower supporter 73 and the pressing bracket 80 are of an integrated resin material structure. That is, both the lower supporter 73 and the pressing bracket 80 may be made of a resin material. And further, the lower supporter 73 and the bracket 80 may be formed as an integrated connection structure to realize the activation of the tact switch. The integrated structure can improve the connection strength, and simultaneously, the integrated structure can be manufactured through integrated forming to improve the production efficiency. Of course, the present application is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the lower supporter 73 and the bracket 80 may be separately and independently disposed.
