Abstract

The present invention relates to a simulation device having a replaceable sensory module, which comprises: a first platform for performing a translational motion with reference to a first three-dimensional coordinate axis; a second platform which is coupled to the first platform and performs a rotational motion with reference to at least one axis among second three-dimensional coordinate axes; and a sensory module coupled to the second platform and arranged to support a user to enable the user to sense a motion provided by the first and second platforms.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A simulation device having a replaceable sensory module, comprising:
a first platform performing a translational motion with reference to a first three-dimensional coordinate axis;
a second platform coupled to the first platform and performing a rotational motion with reference to at least one axis among second three-dimensional coordinate axes; and
a sensory module coupled to the second platform and supporting a user to enable the user to sense a motion provided by the first and second platforms,
wherein the second platform is coupled to the first platform such that a vertical axis of the second coordinate axes and a vertical axis of the first coordinate axis are provided on a vertically extrapolated line.

2. The simulation device of claim 1 , wherein the second platform performs a rotational motion with reference to two axes that are on a plane of the second coordinate axes, and the first platform performs a translational motion with reference to the first coordinate axis while simultaneously performs a rotational motion with reference to the first coordinate axis and the vertical axis of the second coordinate axes.

3. A simulation device having a replaceable sensory module, comprising:
a first platform performing a translational motion with reference to a first three-dimensional coordinate axis;
a second platform coupled to the first platform and performing a rotational motion with reference to at least one axis among second three-dimensional coordinate axes; and
a sensory module coupled to the second platform and supporting a user to enable the user to sense a motion provided by the first and second platforms,
wherein the first coordinate axis of the first platform and the second coordinate axis of the second platform are different in coordinate central point from each other,
wherein the second platform is provided on a position of a coordinate axis of a motion simulated by the sensory module, and is coupled to the sensory module.

4. A simulation device having a replaceable sensory module, comprising:
a first platform performing a translational motion with reference to a first three-dimensional coordinate axis;
a second platform coupled to the first platform and performing a rotational motion with reference to at least one axis among second three-dimensional coordinate axes;
a sensory module coupled to the second platform and supporting a user to enable the user to sense a motion provided by the first and second platforms; and
a displacement module provided between the first platform and the second platform to couple the first platform with the second platform, and tri-dimensionally adjusting a position of the second platform.

5. The simulation device of claim 4 , wherein the sensory module is selectively separated from the second platform.

6. A simulation device having a replaceable sensory module, comprising:
a first platform performing a translational motion with reference to a first three-dimensional coordinate axis;
a second platform coupled to the first platform and performing a rotational motion with reference to at least one axis among second three-dimensional coordinate axes; and
a sensory module coupled to the second platform and supporting a user to enable the user to sense a motion provided by the first and second platforms,
wherein the sensory module comprises the second platform on a motion coordinate axis of a motion that is to be simulated, and the second platform is selectively separated from the first platform.
