BESKRIVELSEDESCRIPTION

BENÆVNELSETITLE

Computer pegeredskab med to sæt knapper (se fig. 1-3).Computer pointing device with two sets of buttons (see Figures 1-3).

ANVENDELSEAPPLICATION

Frembringelsen er udformet for at gøre det muligt for brugeren at veksle mellem at betjene pegeredskabet med venstre og med højre hånd i forbindelse med computerarbejde (se fig. 1 og fig. 2).The generation is designed to allow the user to switch between operating the pointing device with the left and right hands in connection with computer work (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2).

KENDT TEKNIKPRIOR ART

De fleste eksisterende pegeredskaber til computere er udformet til enten at blive betjent med højre hånd eller med venstre hånd, og computerens basisindstillinger skal afpasses efter hvilken kategori pegeredskabet tilhører. Nogle pegeredskaber er udformet således, at de både kan betjenes med højre hånd såvel som med venstre hånd, og det er udelukkende ændringer i computerens basisindstillinger, der afgør hvilken hånd denne type pegeredskaber skal betjenes med. De eksisterende pegeredskaber er altså beregnet på at brugeren vælger en permanent opsætning af computeren, og derefter hele tiden betjener pegeredskabet med den valgte hånd. Derfor er den kendte teknik ikke velegnet til brugere, der måtte ønske at skifte ofte og regelmæssigt mellem at benytte højre og venstre hånd.Most existing pointing devices for computers are designed to be operated either with the right hand or with the left hand, and the basic settings of the computer must be adjusted according to which category the pointing device belongs to. Some pointing devices are designed so that they can be operated with both the right hand and the left hand, and it is only changes in the basic settings of the computer that determine which hand to use this type of pointing device. The existing pointing devices are thus intended for the user to select a permanent set-up of the computer, and then constantly operate the pointing device with the selected hand. Therefore, the prior art is not suitable for users who may wish to switch frequently and regularly between using the right and left hand.

PROBLEMETPROBLEM

Problemet består i at længere tids arbejde med computermus med samme hånd kan medføre overanstrengelser af det menneskelige bevægeapparats forskellige dele, hvilket kan resultere i midlertidige eller permanente arbejdsskader.The problem is that prolonged work with computer mice with the same hand can result in overworking of the various parts of the human movement, which can result in temporary or permanent work injuries.

PROBLEMETS LØSNINGSOLUTION OF THE PROBLEM

Ved at opøve en færdighed i at kunne betjene computermusen med både højre hånd og med venstre hånd, vil brugeren kunne aflaste sit bevægeapparat og derved reducere risikoen for overanstrengelser og arbejdsskader. Dette forudsætter en ny konstruktion af computermusen, således at denne uden videre kan betjenes med højre hånd såvel som med venstre hånd.By acquiring a skill in operating the computer mouse with both the right hand and with the left hand, the user will be able to relieve his movement device and thereby reduce the risk of overwork and work injury. This requires a new design of the computer mouse so that it can be operated with the right hand as well as with the left hand.

Med frembringelsen gøres det muligt for brugeren at flytte frembringelsen fra den ene side af computeren til den anden uden at skulle ændre på hverken computerens eller frembringelsens grundindstillinger, og dermed helt uproblematisk skifte mellem at arbejde med højre hånd og med venstre hånd.The creation allows the user to move the creation from one side of the computer to the other without having to change either the computer's or the creation's basic settings, thus completely switching between working with the right hand and with the left hand.

DK 2000 00144 U3DK 2000 00144 U3

Frembringelsen kommunikerer med computeren via et trådløst signal, f.eks. baseret på Bluetooth teknologi. Et tilhørende softwareprogram monitorerer automatisk brugerens adfærd, og kan indstilles til at afgive et auditivt og/eller visuelt signal efter et arbitrært valgt tidsforløb og derved minde brugeren om at det er på tide at skifte hånd.The output communicates with the computer via a wireless signal, e.g. based on Bluetooth technology. An associated software program automatically monitors the user's behavior and can be set to output an auditory and / or visual signal after an arbitrarily chosen time period, thereby reminding the user that it is time to change hands.

Den fysiske udformning af frembringelsen gør, at denne skal vendes 180 grader omkring tværaksen når brugeren skifter til at betjene den med den anden hånd. De to sæt betjeningsknapper A+B og C+D, som er symmetrisk placeret i hver ende af frembringelsen, har endvidere separate frekvenser som gør det muligt for computeren at kommunikere med betjeningsknapperne individuelt. Når softwareprogrammet efter det arbitrært valgte tidsforløb indikerer at brugeren skal skifte til at arbejde med den anden hånd, skifter computeren automatisk fra at kommunikere med f.eks. betjeningsknapperne A+B til at kommunikere med betjeningsknapperne C+D. På grund af frembringelsens fysiske udformning, hvor den ene side er konkav, skal brugeren nu vende frembringelsen 180 grader for at kunne betjene den med den anden hånd.The physical design of the projection causes it to turn 180 degrees around the cross axis when the user switches to operate it with the other hand. The two sets of control buttons A + B and C + D, which are symmetrically located at each end of the production, also have separate frequencies that allow the computer to communicate with the control buttons individually. When the software program indicates, after the arbitrarily chosen time frame, that the user has to switch to working with the other hand, the computer automatically switches from communicating with e.g. the control buttons A + B to communicate with the control buttons C + D. Due to the physical design of the creation, with one side being concave, the user now has to turn the creation 180 degrees to operate it with the other hand.

For ikke at genere brugeren midt i en arbejdsfunktion, sker skiftet fra at computeren kommunikerer med det ene sæt betjeningsknapper til det andet sæt, først når brugeren løfter frembringelsen fra underlaget for at flytte den til den anden side af computeren. En i frembringelsen indbygget mekanisk eller ekektronisk sensor registrerer om frembringelsen er i kontakt med sit underlag, og hvis denne sensor sender et signal til computeren om at kontakten til underlaget er afbrudt samtidig med at der indikeres "skift hånd”, vil softwareprogrammet skifte fra at kommunikere med det ene sæt betjeningsknapper til at kommunikere med det andet sæt.In order not to bother the user in the middle of a work function, the switch from the computer communicates with one set of controls to the other set, only when the user lifts the output from the substrate to move it to the other side of the computer. A mechanical or electronic sensor built into the output detects whether the output is in contact with its substrate, and if this sensor sends a signal to the computer that the contact to the substrate is disconnected while indicating "change hand", the software program will switch from communicating with one set of controls to communicate with the other set.

Softwareprogrammet vil kunne indstilles til at imødekomme individuelle ønsker, og det vil også kunne indstilles til at frembringelsen permanent bliver betjent med enten højre eller venstre hånd. Udover at være et innovativt computer pegeredskab for de brugere, der måtte ønske at udvikle en færdighed i at arbejde med både højre hånd og venstre hånd, vil frembringelsen altså også kunne fungere som traditionelle computermus, og helt erstatte disse.The software program can be set to meet individual desires, and it can also be set to produce permanently operated with either the right or left hand. In addition to being an innovative computer pointing device for those users who may wish to develop a skill in working with both the right hand and the left hand, the creation will thus also be able to function as traditional computer mice, and completely replace them.

BRUGSMOPELKRAVBRUGSMOPELKRAV

Frembringelsen er et pegeredskab til computere (computermus) udført i gængse materialer, såsom plast, metal og andet anvendeligt. Frembringelsen er symmetrisk eller ikke symmetrisk i sin fysiske udformning, og er forsynet med to sæt identiske eller ikke identiske betjeningsknapper således at frembringelsen lige nemt kan anvendes med højre hånd såvel som med venstre hånd.The creation is a pointing device for computers (computer mice) made in common materials, such as plastics, metal and other applications. The projection is symmetrical or not symmetrical in its physical design, and is provided with two sets of identical or non-identical controls so that the projection can be used equally easily with the right hand as well as with the left hand.

Frembringelsen kommunikerer med computeren ved hjælp af Bluetooth teknologi eller anden kendt eller endnu ukendt trådløs teknologi, på en sådan måde at alle knapper kan identificeres individuelt af computeren, og et tilhørende softwareprogram kan indstilles til automatisk at skifte mellem at computeren kommunikerer mellem de to sæt betjeningsknapper. Brugeren kan derved skifte mellem at betjene frembringelsen ved hjælp af højre hånd eller venstre hånd uden at behøve at ændre nogle indstillinger på hverken computeren eller på frembringelsen, men blot ved at flytte denne fra den ene side af computeren til den anden, og kan straks fortsætte betjeningen med den anden hånd.The production communicates with the computer using Bluetooth technology or other known or unknown wireless technology in such a way that all buttons can be individually identified by the computer and an associated software program can be set to automatically switch between the computer communicating between the two sets of control buttons . The user can thereby switch between operating the creation using the right hand or the left hand without having to change any settings on either the computer or the creation, but simply by moving it from one side of the computer to the other, and can proceed immediately. operation with the other hand.
