JOYSTICK FOR CONTROLLING AN AIRCRAFT

摘要

The invention relates to a joystick (1) for controlling an aircraft, including a frame (2), a lever (3), a mechanical linking assembly (4) for connecting the lever to the frame enabling a rotation of the lever (3) relative to the frame (2) about a first rotation axis (X), in which the mechanical linking assembly (4) includes a first pivot joint (9), the first pivot join (9) including a first portion, a second portion movably mounted relative to the first portion, and at least two flexible blades, each flexible blade having an end that is attached to the first portion and another end that is attached to the second portion, and being resiliently deformable in order to enable a rotation of the second portion relative to the first portion along the first rotation axis (X) and to generate a return torque which hinders the rotation of the second portion relative to the first portion.

主权项

1. A joystick for controlling an aircraft, comprising:
a frame, a lever, a mechanical linking assembly of the lever to the frame enabling rotation of the lever relative to the frame according to a first axis of rotation, wherein the mechanical linking assembly comprises a first pivot joint, the first pivot joint comprising a first part, a second part mounted mobile relative to the first part, and at least two flexible blades, each flexible blade having an end fixed to the first part and another end fixed to the second part and being resiliently deformable to enable rotation of the second part relative to the first part according to the first axis of rotation and generate a return torque tending to oppose rotation of the second part relative to the first part.
