    摘要: A joystick control system for a refuse vehicle includes multiple joystick input devices, and a single controller. The single controller is configured to receive a user input from one or more of the multiple joystick input devices. The controller is also configured to identify which of the joystick input devices provide the user input. The controller is also configured to generate control signals, in response to receiving the user input, for one or more controllable elements of the refuse vehicle based on which of the joystick input devices provides the user input and the user input. The controller is also configured to provide the control signals to the one or more controllable elements of the refuse vehicle to operate the one or more controllable elements of the refuse vehicle according to the user input.

    摘要: An input device includes a housing and a strain-generating body including a cylindrical portion with an upper end surface, the strain-generating body being secured to the housing. The input device includes four strain sensors, the four strain sensors being secured around the cylindrical portion of the strain-generating body. The input device includes an operation panel having a lower surface, the operation panel including a shaft, the shaft being situated on the lower surface and at a central portion of the operation panel, and the shaft being inserted into the cylindrical portion of the strain-generating body to be secured to the strain-generating body. The upper end surface of the cylindrical portion of the strain-generating body and the lower surface of the operation panel are in contact with each other.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a wearable electronic controller for remotely controlling an external electronic device. The controller comprises a body configured to fit on a human finger, and a multi-directional switch. The multi-directional switch comprises: a lever that extends outwardly from an outer surface of the body, and a control unit configured generate input signals in response to manipulation of the lever. The controller further comprises circuitry configured to generate command signals based on the input signals, and to wirelessly transmit the command signals to the external electronic device, wherein the generated command signals are for causing respective actions to be performed at the external electronic device.

    摘要: A multi-way input device includes a strain-generating element, strain detection elements, and a tilt operation unit including an operation shaft configured to tilt. The strain-generating element includes a base portion, detection arms extending in respective directions from the base portion, support legs, and locking arms each of which is provided to extend from the base portion, each of the locking arms having an upper surface and being situated between adjacent detection arms among the detection arms. The upper surface of each of the locking arms contacts a lower surface of the tilt operation unit, and each of the detection arms does not contact the lower surface of the tilt operation unit.

    摘要: A direction input device includes an input portion, a first slide portion, a second slide portion, a first slid surface, a second slid surface, and a slide biasing portion. The input portion includes an operated portion and a shaft. The first slide portion slides in a first direction. The first slide portion is provided with a first hole through which the shaft passes, the first hole extending in a second direction. The second slide portion slides in the second direction. The second slide portion is provided with a second hole through which the shaft passes, the second hole extending in the first direction. The first slid surface extends in the first direction and is in a shape curved convexly upward. The first slide portion slides over the first slid surface as the first slide portion abuts thereon from below.
