Abstract

A control console for a computer game comprises a central column provided with control arms and potentiometers located at points A,B,C,D. The arms each have control switches H, D. The column is collapsible onto its base E and a handle F is used for carrying the collapsed console. The console may be provided with a belt for attachment around the waist of an operator for use in a mobile mode. <IMAGE>

Description

SPECIFICATION Remote control console The invention relates to hand held remote control console's.
Hand held remote control console's normally consist of the joystick type control, used in single or dual format in conjunction with a radio/direct control system.
The present invention provides a control console into which the same radio/direct control system can be installed but which will give more versatility to the system in a simple, collapsable and portable format which is not presently available.
The invention is discribed by way of example with ref to the accompanying drawings.
Drawing No 1 A control system is installed into the invention. The invention offers variable movement in the main column. As required potentiometers maybe installed at say points A. B. C & D and a variation as required of aiternative switches at say H and D.
Drawing No 2 Indicates the compactness and portability of the invention.
Drawing No 3 Carrying mode shows handles which double as waist supports in mobile mode.
Drawing No 4 Fitted in portable operating mode.
1. A remote control console unit which can be fitted with a radio or direct control system which requires movement in a multiple of directions by hand operation.
2. A remote control console unit as claimed in 1. where the main column consist of members supported about a central column or rod and each member moving in a required direction and each member having its own individual function.
3. A remote control console unit as claimed in 1 and 2. where the member consisting the main column colapses into the main housing when not in use.
4. A remote control console unit as claimed in 1. 2 and 3 where the unit has carrying handles which double as waist supports for use in the mobile mode and a waist support belt fitted.
