Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a mouse pad that is used for moving and operating a mouse, which is provided as a handheld position input device in an OA device such as a computer, on a plane.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 The mouse pad provided so far is composed of a flexible mat made of synthetic resin or rubber, and is placed flat on the side of the keyboard of the computer for convenient mouse operation.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 Recently, it has been said that computers, especially personal computers, have spread remarkably to households, and it is said that one household has one computer. However, personal computers used at home are often used for a limited period of time, and are rarely used during the daytime on weekdays, for example. Not only is dust easily collected and dirty, but it also lays flat on a desk and occupies a large installation area, which is a problem when cleaning the desk surface.

The present invention is intended to provide a mouse pad that can be installed in a standing state when not in use, and therefore does not take up much space for installation, and can also be used as an interior decoration for a photo stand-up. It is a thing.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention is provided with a hard plate-shaped pad body, and on the surface side of the pad body, a design layer in which an arbitrary pattern is drawn and a transparent protective layer covering the surface of the design layer are sequentially integrated and a protective layer is formed. The present invention relates to a mouse pad, which is formed to have a flat surface so that a mouse can be operated, and a supporting leg portion for supporting the pad main body in an upright state is provided on the back surface side so that the supporting leg portion can be stored.

[0006]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the present invention, the pad body 1 of the mouse pad is made of a relatively hard plate material such as wood and hard plastic, and the design layer 2 with an arbitrary pattern is provided on the surface side of the pad body 1. It is provided.

The design layer 2 may be formed by pasting sheet materials such as photographs, paintings and various printed materials, or a general painting technique applied to furniture etc. It may be formed by applying a lacquer method or a printing technique.

The surface of the design layer 2 is covered with a protective layer 3 made of transparent plastic so as not to come into direct contact with the mouse when the mouse is operated, and the surface of the protective layer 3 does not hinder the mouse operation. Is finished flat. The design layer 2 and the protective layer 3 may also be provided on the peripheral side portion of the pad body 1.

On the back surface side of the pad body 1, a supporting leg portion 4 for supporting the body body 1 from the back surface side in an upright state is housed so as to be extended.

In the illustrated embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, the pad body 1 has a double structure of a front plate 1a and a rear plate 1b, and as shown in FIG. A pair of flat triangular support legs 4 and 4 are cut out based on the cut lines 5 and 5, and the support legs 4 and 4 are hinged to the outer edge of the back surface of the front plate 1a at the outer edge of the back surface. The parts 6 and 6 can be opened and closed over an angle range of 0 to 180 °, for example. The opening / closing angle range of the supporting leg 4 may be 0 to 90 °. The front and back plates 1a and 1b are placed on the portions other than the supporting legs 4 and 4 and bonded and integrated by applying an adhesive (not shown). The supporting leg portion 4 is not limited to the configuration shown in the drawings, and the structure is particularly limited as long as the supporting leg portion 4 can be stored and extended, and the pad body 1 can be supported from the back side in the extended state. Not done. As shown in FIG. 2, finger support parts 7 and 7 can be formed on the supporting legs 4 and 4 in order to make it convenient for storing and overhanging.

FIG. 1 shows a usage state as a mouse pad. In this use state, the supporting legs 4 and 4 are housed so as to be flush with the back surface of the pad body 1 as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, and can be used as a mouse pad as usual.

On the other hand, when not in use, as shown in FIG. 5, the support legs 4 and 4 are extended from the pad body 1 at an appropriate angle, for example, 90 °, so that the pad body 1 is supported from the back side by the support legs 4 and 4. It is possible to stand upright. In this standing state, the pattern drawn on the design layer 2 of the pad main body 1 can be seen through the protective layer 3 so that it can be used as an interior with a photo-like appearance. In addition, since it is in an upright position, it does not take up much space for installation and is convenient for cleaning, as well as being less dusty and hygienic.

[0014]

[Effect of the invention]

 According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a mouse pad that can be used as a mouse pad as usual when it is installed on a flat surface, and can be used as an interior-combined mouse pad that is particularly useful for home and personal use when it is installed upright.
