摘要： A multi-directional contactless controller senses the displacement of a manipulator with respect to a reference frame along two orthogonal directions and is also provided with a resiliently biased cam and cam follower disposed between the manipulator and the reference frame for providing tactile feedback and returning the manipulator to a central position. For specific applications, the cam surface is programmed with various regions having different restoring forces or rest positions. Access to these regions can be conditioned by selectively activated solenoids or by a requirement for overt operator input. Similarly, a selectively activated solenoid can be used to conditionally prohibit exit from these regions or to selectively return the controller to the central null position.

摘要： A manual controller for producing an output signal for control of hydraulic valves and the like. The controller has a quadrant lever consisting of an inner tube connected to a shaft and an outer tube slidable thereover. The inner tube has a palm rest at its upper end while the outer tube has an annular finger grip. The inner tube carries a slidable plug which is downwardly spring pressed and which is coupled to the outer tube to urge the finger grip downwardly away from the palm rest. A cam track is arranged on the frame closely parallel to the plane of swinging movement of the lever. The cam track is engaged by a cam follower which is secured to the outer tube. The cam track is so contoured that in the arc of movement of the lever from its reference position the cam follower thereon is yieldingly obstructed by the cam track so that progressive free movement of the lever must be accompanied by progressive squeezing movement of the hand of the operator with the result that the squeezing movement controls the progress of rocking movement. A drum is secured to the shaft and a pair of magnetically saturable tubes are arranged parallel to, and slightly spaced from, the drum. Extensive permanent magnets on the drum cooperate with the respective tubes, each of the magnets being so formed as to have a helically orientated edge, the magnets being arranged in a projected mirror image relation so that rocking of the drum by the lever results in progressive differential saturation of the tubes in a sense which depends upon the direction of lever movement thereby to produce an output signal which depends upon the direction and amount of lever movement.

摘要： A multi-directional contactless controller senses the displacement of a manipulator with respect to a reference frame along two orthogonal directions and also indicates rotation of the manipulator with respect to the reference frame. The manipulator is journaled to a carrier and means are provided for preventing rotation of the carrier with respect to the reference frame. A rotary-type sensor indicates the rotation of the manipulator with respect to the carrier. Contactless linear sensors indicate the displacement of the carrier with respect to the reference frame. In one preferred embodiment, the carrier is planar and carries a square flat magnet which differentially saturates two pairs of saturable cores secured to the reference frame. In a second embodiment, the carrier is cylindrical and telescopes within a cylindrical frame. In a third embodiment, the carrier is spherical and is received in a ball-and-socket type joint fashioned in the reference frame. A contactless controller is also disclosed having the polarity of the indication for a first direction of control selected by a second direction of control, the first direction of control providing a linear response and the second direction of control providing a nonlinear response.

摘要： A liquid cable transfer device is provided for transmitting input forces and/or displacements to corresponding output forces and/or displacements. The transfer device includes a section of tubing adapted to accommodate liquid under pressure, and terminal units attached to opposite ends of the tubing. Each unit includes a piston and a biasing element acting against the piston whereby the pistons of both units coact to maintain a certain minimum liquid pressure within the tubing. The piston displacement stroke within one terminal unit caused by either a pull or push input force being applied thereto is transmitted to the piston within the second terminal unit whereby the latter piston is displaced from its initial equilibrium position a predetermined amount.

摘要： A squeeze type manual actuator including a control arm with a pair of hand grips extending from the upper end of the arm, at least one of the hand grips being mounted on the arm for movement toward and away from the other hand grips. The hand grips are provided with gripping pads and have a normal spacing in which the pads are respectively engageable by the palm and finger tips of one hand of the operator. The movable hand grip engages a plunger having a return spring. A signal producing device is coupled to the plunger for producing an output signal of pre-selected polarity and which varies in accordance with plunger displacement. In the preferred embodiment of the invention the arm has upper and lower sections with limited lost motion between them in opposite directions from a neutral position. The polarity is pre-selected in accordance with the direction of relative movement between the sections so that by moving the hand grips in a direction to take up lost motion an output signal of desired polarity is produced upon subsequent squeezing together of the hand grips. The arm is hinged at its lower end and a second signal-producing means produces a second output signal in accordance with the rocking movement of the arm, thereby enabling simultaneous independent control of multiple functions. In an alternate embodiment a double-throw switch is used for polarity selection, the switch being mechanically interlocked to prevent throwing between its alternate states when the hand grips are in squeezed condition.

摘要： A position sensor for producing a variable electrical output signal in response to manipulation of a quadrant lever or the like. A pair of tubes of equal length made of magnetically saturable material are secured to a frame in parallel proximity to a sheet-like permanent magnet which is mounted on a carrier. The magnet has a pair of active angled edges and the tubes are oriented to transversely intersect the respective angled edges, being so spaced from one another that the tubes are magnetically saturated over complementary fractions of their length. Each tube is engaged by at least one turn of wire and a detector circuit is provided having its input connected to the turns of wire for producing an electrical output signal in accordance with the differential magnetic saturation of the tubes. Each tube is angled generally transversely with respect to the direction of relative movement. In addition the presented edges of the magnet are angled at such acute angle with respect to the direction of relative movement that, upon such movement the tubes are respectively engaged by successive portions of the angled edges, so that one of the tubes is progressively more saturated in its longitudinal dimension while the remaining tube is progressively less saturated, with the degree of saturation of the tubes in the longitudinal dimension remaining substantially complementary over the range of relative movement. The acute angle is sufficiently shallow so that the range of relative movement substantially exceeds the length dimension of the tubes. The magnet has a reference position with respect to the tubes in which each tube is saturated over such portion of its longitudinal dimension as will result in a zero output signal at the reference position.

摘要： A manually controlled actuating device is provided to assist in overcoming forces, which resist adjustment of the device into certain positions, and at the same time minimize operator fatigue. The device includes a shaft adjustably mounted for movement from a predetermined rest position along a fixed path and having a spring-biased multiple-input-accepting handle attached to one end of the shaft. The handle is adapted to accept push, pull and squeeze inputs. Disposed adjacent the other end portion of the shaft and in proximity to the shaft's path of movement are a pair of fixedly mounted cam plates having the surfaces thereof adapted to be engaged by a follower pin carried by the shaft. The follower pin is mounted on the shaft for limited movement longitudinally thereof and is interconnected to the handle whereby application of one of the input forces on the handle will effect movement of the follower pin relative to the cam surfaces and permit controlled movement of the shaft from the predetermined rest position. As the shaft moves along its path from the rest position, the follower pin simultaneously follows the cam surfaces. Any longitudinal displacement of the follower pin by the cam surfaces in a direction away from the handle causes increased energization of the handle biasing spring. Upon release of the handle, the shaft will return to the rest position due to the increased energy of the biasing spring being released through the follower pin onto a segment of the cam surfaces causing a force vector to be established overcoming any resistance normally encountered by the shaft in returning to its rest position.
