Description of the new type: [Technical field to which the new type belongs] This new type is related to the optical cursor control of a kind of display ϋ, especially a kind, by turning the _ ball in situ to make the image _ component field_ Track the ball's roll motion vector to control the position of the cursor on the screen. [Previous technology] Currently used in the optical mouse used to control the position of the cursor on the computer screen. • The optical mouse is equipped with a light-emitting element and a -sensing element. The mouse pad or the desktop, when the user rolls the optical mouse, the component can be compared and discriminated by the professional mouse pad or table_image to detect the user sliding the optical slide The displacement vector of the mouse, which in turn controls the displacement of the cursor on the computer screen. * When the conventional optical mouse is in use, it must have a flat space for the use of surface-shifting optics. Therefore, it takes up space in the above considerations, and some use it for outdoor use, in a car, or without a flat table. In this state, the optical mouse cannot be used normally, and it is necessary to improve it. . Because of this, such as U.S. Patent No. 6,218,659, a device for inserting and controlling a screen mark with a trackball is disclosed. The device is provided with an inner layer on the trackball, and a pattern or pattern is formed on the inner layer. Lai's layer, and coating a transparent layer on the inner and outer layers to direct the light source to the track surface, the pattern or spot on the lion ball can be reflected on the receiver, and the motion vector of the track ball is calculated, and Control Rong 5.M283236 • Curtain Play ^ " However, in the above US patent case, a trackball with special surface treatment must be used. 'In addition to increasing the manufacturing cost, when the user uses the trackball for a long time, the trackball The outer transparent layer or the inner layer of the upper layer will reduce the use of the screen due to wear and tear, which will result in the inability to accurately control the displacement of the screen cursor. In view of this, the creator of this case has made research and innovation to reveal an optical cursor controller of a display. · [New content] The purpose of this model is to provide an optical vernier controller of a display, which includes: the frame is provided with a trackball socket; and the trackball is a trackball rotatably provided on the carcass. To make the light beam incident on the light guide element to the trackball sphere 'so that the image sensing tree can sense the rolling vector of the trackball; so that the trackball on Γ can be === The image sensor can sense the track “I” to control the position of the cursor on the camp screen. If so, you can • transfer the trackball on the frame so that the image sensor can sense the trackball. After moving the vector, you can then control the cursor position on the screen. Ben Xindi can be tilted, and can be commanded by the following and _ various drawings. [Embodiment] Cut the first to fifth riding instructions, this new face has _ -An optical device for a display, including:-a frame body, equipped with-a track ball connected to Na Linquan who has a "light transmission hole";-a track ball, placed on the rail of the frame body 6 M283236 One on the trackball socket (21) and projected above the light transmission hole (22); a circuit board ( 4〇), fixed under the frame body (20), embedded with a light emitting element (41) and an image sensing element (42), a light guide element (50), its light receiving surface (51) , Placed in front of the light emitting end (410) of the light emitting element (41), so that the light beam entering the light guiding element (50) is emitted outward through the light emitting surface (52) of the light guiding element (50), Shoot through the transparent hole (22) of the frame (20) toward the spherical surface of the trackball (30), so that the image sensing element (42) can sense the rolling vector of the trackball (30); and A light source base (60) is fastened below the circuit board (40), and fixes the light emitting element (41) inside to block the light beam of the light emitting element (41) from diffusing outward to interfere with the image sensing element ( 42), and guide the light beam to the light-receiving surface of the light element (50); if so, it can be placed on the frame body only by rotating in place without rolling the entire optical cursor controller (2) The trackball (30) above can make the image sensing element (42) sense the rolling vector of the trackball (30), and then control the cursor position on the screen. The light source base (60) can also be used with Frame (20) -body molding, and the frame body (20) is not limited to directly below the trackball, and can be installed on any part of the circumference of the sphere, so that the image sensing element (42) can sense the trackball (3 〇) of the rolling vector. The above trackball (30) does not need to be a special image on the surface as shown in the day, as shown in US Patent No. 6,218,659. After the element (42) casts light onto the surface of the trackball (30), the image sensing element (42) directly captures the daylight surface of the image on the surface of the trackball (30), adds the comparison, and calculates the track The displacement vector of the ball (30), so the new model is manufactured. The trackball (30) does not require special surface image processing, which can reduce manufacturing costs and increase service life. 7, M283236 The optical cursor controller of the display disclosed in the new model, wherein the trackball socket (21) of the frame (20) is connected with a plurality of balls (211), so that the trackball (30) It can be placed across each of the balls (211) and rolled smoothly in place. • The optical cursor controller of the display disclosed in the new model, wherein the frame (20) can be locked in the keyboard (70) as shown in the fourth figure, and the trackball (30) can be fixed on the keyboard (70). # 又 大 出 上 上 remote keyboard (70); or the new model can be installed in the shell of the control device (other) as shown in the fifth figure, and the trackball (30) • It protrudes above the casing of the control type device ,. This model does not limit the appearance of the device installed by this model. In addition, the frame (20) disclosed in the present model can also be integrally formed as part of the keyboard housing, or integrally formed as part of the control-type device casing. limit. The optical vernier controller of the display disclosed in the present invention, wherein the light-emitting element (41) is a light-emitting diode LED or other light-emitting element that can be taken from visible light, and the present invention is not self-limiting. • The light-emitting element ⑷), image sensing element (42), light-guiding element (50), and light; secret (60) disclosed in this new model, its structure is well-known, and it is also commonly used in conventional optical slides Zhuang, because it is not the subject of a patent application for this new model, it will not be described in detail. The main structure characteristics of the optical cursor control unit disclosed by this new model are: In: By turning the trackball unit on the frame ⑽ in place, the image sensing element ⑽ is sensed and compared. The rolling vector of the trackball is converted to the displacement vector of the glory curtain. In this way, when using the optical trackball, the user no longer needs to roll the entire device on the desktop, which is more convenient to use; New due to 8
