AIRCRAFT SIDESTICK Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC B64C13/06 G05G9/47 G05G9/53 

FIELD: aircraft engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to control devices for various manned and unmanned vehicles. The aircraft sidestick contains a housing, a handle with programmable buttons and a scroll wheel, a height-adjustable bracket, a sphere, a computing device, an optical sensor and a fixed segment of the sphere made of slippery material, as well as a mechanism that simulates feedback located under the base. In this case, the center of the sphere, the focus of the segment of the sphere and the radii of the spheres do not coincide. Inside the housing there is a compensating mechanism consisting of a fixed outer cylinder and a movable inner cylinder, a screw and a threaded sleeve, a stepper motor. At the same time, the aircraft sidestick contains a corrugated structure with electrical connectors placed on its sockets, interconnected by electrical wires laid in the body of its material. The middle bracket of the feedback simulation mechanism is rigidly connected to the compensating mechanism.

EFFECT: ability to adjust the height of the device is achieved.
