Abstract

A simulate controller for incorporating with a game controller of a game console includes a first holder, a second holder, and a joint member for connecting the first and second holders to simulate a corresponding movement between a first controller received in the first holder and a second controller received in the second holder, in such manner that the related movements between the first and second controllers as a requirement of a subject of a video game of the game console are capable of being accurately operated. The simulate controller further has a shape similar to the subject of the video game of the game console, so as to enhance to realistic feeling of the subject of the video game.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A simulate controller for a game console being operatively controlled via first and second controllers, comprising:
 a first holder having a first compartment for holding said first controller thereat;   a second holder having a second compartment for holding said second controller thereat; and   a joint member having a first conjunction end rotatably coupling with said first holder and a second conjunction end rotatably coupling with said second holder, wherein said first holder is rotatably moved with respect to said second holder through said joint member for generating a relative rotatable movement between said first and second controllers so as to simulate a fishing-like motion of a fishing simulation game for said game console.   
     
     
         2 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said joint member comprises an axle element extended from said first conjunction end, wherein said first holder comprises an axle sleeve provided at a sidewall of said first holder and coupled with said axle element so as to rotatably couple said joint member with said first holder. 
     
     
         3 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 2 , wherein said joint member further has a first coupling opening provided at said first conjunction end that said axle element is slidably extended through said first coupling opening to couple with said axle sleeve so as to enable said joint member being rotatably coupled with said first holder. 
     
     
         4 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 3 , wherein said axle element has an enlarged head portion, an elongated neck portion extending through said first coupling opening, and an outer threaded portion provided at an outer circumference of said neck portion of said axle element to couple with an inner threaded portion of said axle sleeve. 
     
     
         5 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said second holder comprises a rotatable axle sidewardly extended from a sidewall of said second holder to rotatably couple with said second conjunction end of said joint member. 
     
     
         6 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 4 , wherein said second holder comprises a rotatable axle sidewardly extended from a sidewall of said second holder to rotatably couple with said second conjunction end of said joint member. 
     
     
         7 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 5 , wherein said joint member further has a second coupling opening for said rotatable axle rotatably extended therethrough to rotatably couple said second conjunction end of said joint member with said second holder. 
     
     
         8 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 6 , wherein said joint member further has a second coupling opening for said rotatable axle rotatably extended therethrough to rotatably couple said second conjunction end of said joint member with said second holder. 
     
     
         9 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 7 , wherein said joint member further comprises an axle locker coupling with said rotatable axle to interlock said rotatable axle at said second coupling opening of said joint member after said rotatable axle is rotatably extended through said second coupling opening of said joint member. 
     
     
         10 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 8 , wherein said joint member further comprises an axle locker coupling with said rotatable axle to interlock said rotatable axle at said second coupling opening of said joint member after said rotatable axle is rotatably extended through said second coupling opening of said joint member. 
     
     
         11 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said second holder is orientated parallelly with said first holder. 
     
     
         12 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 12 , wherein said first holder has a top opening to communicate with said first compartment for receiving said first controller therein through said top opening, a bottom opening provided at a bottom of said first holder for accessing a bottom controlling of said first controller, and a through cavity provided at a lower portion of said first holder for a connecting cable extending from said first controller to said second controller at said second holder. 
     
     
         13 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 12 , wherein said first holder, having a longitudinal shape to simulate a fishing rod like configuration, has a protruding portion and a holding portion defining said first compartment thereat, wherein said protruding portion of said first holder is detachably coupled with said holding portion thereof. 
     
     
         14 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said joint member comprises a first axle coaxially extended from said first conjunction end to rotatably couple with said first holder, and a second axle coaxially extended from said second conjunction end to rotatably couple with said second holder. 
     
     
         15 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 14 , wherein said first holder comprises a retention member, having a through hole, provided at a sidewall of said first holder, and an axle locker detachably interlocking with said first axle after said first axle is rotatably extended through said through hole of said retention member so as to detachably couple said first axle with said first holder in a rotatably movable manner. 
     
     
         16 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 14 , wherein said joint member further comprises a connection element pivotally coupling said second conjunction end of said joint member with said second holder to enable said second holder being pivotally moved with respect to said joint member, such that said second holder is adapted to pivotally move to parallel to said first holder and is adapted to pivotally move to perpendicular to said first holder, so as to rotatably adjust its angle of said second holder with respect to said first holder. 
     
     
         17 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 15 , wherein said joint member further comprises a connection element pivotally coupling said second conjunction end of said joint member with said second holder to enable said second holder being pivotally moved with respect to said joint member, such that said second holder is adapted to pivotally move to parallel to said first holder and is adapted to pivotally move to perpendicular to said first holder, so as to rotatably adjust its angle of said second holder with respect to said first holder. 
     
     
         18 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 17 , wherein said axle locker has an inner threaded portion detachably fastening with an outer threaded portion of said first axle so as to detachably couple said joint member with said first holder in a rotatably movable manner. 
     
     
         19 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 18 , wherein said first holder has a top opening to communicate with said first compartment for receiving said first controller therein through said top opening, a bottom opening provided at a bottom of said first holder for accessing a bottom controlling of said first controller, and a through cavity provided at a lower portion of said first holder for a connecting cable extending from said first controller to said second controller at said second holder. 
     
     
         20 . The simulate controller, as recited in  claim 19 , wherein said first holder, having a longitudinal shape to simulate a fishing rod like configuration, comprises a casing defining said first compartment thereat, and an extendable rod extended from said casing.
