Abstract

A computer mouse and stand-mounted mouse pad system includes a selectively inclinable rigid platform pivotally mounted at an upper end of a floor-stand, and a computer mouse mountable onto the platform for sliding translation thereover. The computer mouse has a releasable magnetic coupler for releasably magnetically mounting the computer mouse onto the platform. The platform is adapted to magnetically adhere to the magnetic coupler.

Claims (19)

1. A computer mouse and stand-mounted mouse pad system comprising:
a selectively inclinable rigid platform pivotally mounted at an upper end of a floor-stand, a computer mouse mountable onto said platform for sliding translation thereover, said computer mouse having a releasable magnetic coupler for releasably magnetically mounting said computer mouse onto said platform, said platform adapted to magnetically adhere to said magnetic coupler.
2. The device of claim 1 wherein said floor stand includes a selectively vertically adjustable shaft, and wherein said platform is mounted atop said shaft.
3. The device of claim 2 wherein said floor stand includes a tripod mount.
4. The device of claim 1 wherein an upper surface of said platform is planar.
5. The device of claim 1 further comprising a rigid fore-arm rest cantilevered from said platform.
6. The device of claim 5 wherein said fore-arm rest is planar and has an upper surface generally parallel to an upper surface of said platform.
7. The device of claim 1 wherein said magnetic coupler is a magnetic roller ball rotatably mounted in said mouse and wherein said platform includes a metal layer.
8. The device of claim 7 wherein said metal layer is an uppermost surface of said platform.
9. The device of claim 1 wherein said magnetic coupler is a metal roller ball rotatably mounted in said mouse and wherein said platform has a magnetized upper surface.
10. The device of claim 9 wherein said magnetized upper surface includes at least one magnetic strip.
11. The device of claim 1 wherein said floor-stand includes a means for adjusting a height of said platform above a base of said floor-stand and a means for pivotally adjusting an inclination angle of said platform relative to said floor-stand.
12. The device of claim 11 wherein said height is generally between 6 and 24 inches measured from a lower-most end of said base.
13. The device of claim 12 wherein said base is a tripod.
14. The device of claim 11 wherein said floor stand includes a selectively vertically adjustable shaft, and wherein said platform is mounted atop said shaft.
15. The device of claim 11 wherein an upper surface of said platform is planar.
16. The device of claim 11 wherein said magnetic coupler is a magnetic roller ball rotatably mounted in said mouse and wherein said platform includes a metal layer.
17. The device of claim 16 wherein said metal layer is an uppermost surface of said platform.
18. The device of claim 11 wherein said magnetic coupler is a metal roller ball rotatably mounted in said mouse and wherein said platform has a magnetized upper surface.
19. The device of claim 18 wherein said magnetized upper surface includes at least one magnetic strip.
