いという問題点があった。2. Description of the Related Art A conventional mouse has a portion for placing or touching a palm. This is effective when the mouse is gripped by the palm and the entire finger and the mouse is operated using a hand, arm or finger. The wrist part is fixed at a fixed position, and the mouse is grasped with the first joint of the thumb and the third finger or the little finger, and is a part unnecessary for mouse operation using the wrist movement and the bending and extending movement of the grasped finger. ing. In particular, when the mouse is moved back and forth only by bending and extending the grasped finger, there is a problem in that it is difficult to operate the mouse because the portion in contact with the palm of the mouse hits the palm.

も良くなる構成となっている。Another wrist rest of the present invention is a fixed stand having, on the upper surface, a portion made of a soft and resilient material for placing a part of the wrist or a part slightly above the palm thereof in mouse operation. It has a configuration that is large enough to support the weight of the arm. For example, sponge, rubber, or towel cloth is considered as a soft and elastic material on the wrist mounting surface, and is an effective material for stabilizing the wrist and reducing fatigue. In addition, by providing unevenness on the upper surface of the wrist placing table, a massage-like stimulating effect is obtained, and there is also an effect of relieving wrist fatigue. Also, by making the wrist rest and the mouse pad integrally, the cost performance of the production side is improved.

It is designed to be gripped by joints. Click button 11
Is large enough to be operated with the index and middle fingers.
Further, since a space is formed between the mouse 1 and the palm of the hand for operating the mouse, the mouse operation by bending and extending the grasped finger is facilitated.
