    Abstract: A user input device is provided for a hydraulic system that has a source of pressurized fluid and a tank. The user input device includes a body with a supply passage (40) for receiving the pressurized fluid, a tank passage (42) for connection to the tank, and a first chamber (44). A handle (19) is pivotally attached to the body and operates one or more valves within the body. In a preferred embodiment, the handle can be pivoted independently about two orthogonal axis with separate pairs of valves (21,22) operated by movement about each axis. In response to the position of the handle, each valve (21,22) connects a separate chamber (44,58) alternately to either the supply passage (40) or the tank passage (42) and different pressure sensor (61,62) produces an electrical signal indicating a level of pressure in the chamber (44,58) of each valve. Thus an electrical signal is produced from each valve to indicate motion of the handle.

    Abstract: An active stick apparatus (40) includes a stick housing (41) and a stick control member (42) pivotally mounted to the stick housing (41) at a pivot point (43). The pivot point (43) acts to divide the stick control member (42) into a first member section (44) and a second member section (45). The pivot point (43) allows the stick control member (42) to pivot with respect to the stick housing (41), as indicated by directional arrows (46) and (47). An actuator (50) is attached to the first member section (44) at an end distal from the pivot point (43). The actuator (50) is arranged to act as a counterbalance to movement of the stick control member (42) about the pivot point (43) under acceleration forces asserted on the stick control member (42). The output axle drive (52) of the actuator (50) is fixedly coupled to a first section (53) of a drive link (54) and a second section (55) of the drive link (54) is pivotally coupled to a first section (56) of a mounting linkage (57). A second section (58) of the mounting linkage (57) is pivotally coupled to the stick housing (41). Coupling of the actuator (50) to the first member section mitigates the requirement for a conventional lump mass.

    Abstract: A user interface system comprises a plurality of linkages connected between a platform and a base. The linkages permit motion of the platform over at least a portion of a spherical surface. A support assembly coupled between the platform and the base comprises a spherical joint having a centre of rotation substantially concentric with a centre of the spherical surface. The spherical joint constrains motion of the platform to the spherical surface. The system may include a sensor corresponding to each linkage. Each sensor may be coupled to sense a movement of its corresponding linkage in response to motion of the platform over the portion of the spherical surface. A user-manipulable handle may be coupled to the platform so that the user can move the platform.
