[Embodiment of the invention]

 Hereinafter, the mouse pad of the present invention will be described with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings. FIG. 1 is a plan view of an embodiment of the mouse pad of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line AA of FIG.

The mouse pad 1 of this embodiment is formed into a plate-like body 2 by molding and firing a ceramic material. An antibacterial glaze layer 3 is provided on a surface 2 a of the plate-like body 2. Anti-slip members 4a, 4b, 4c are attached to the back surface 2b side of the body 2, respectively. Hereinafter, each configuration will be sequentially described in detail.

The mouse pad 1 is a plate-like body 2 formed of a ceramic material into a rectangular shape in a plan view, and is manufactured by molding and firing into such a form. More specifically, the mouse pad 1 is formed to have a length and width of about 225 × 160 mm and a thickness of about 8 mm. However, the mouse pad of the present invention is not limited to such a form and size, but has a flat part of a certain size for moving the mouse, for example, a circular shape in plan view or an elliptical shape in plan view. Molded products are widely included.

As shown in FIG. 2, an antibacterial glaze layer 3 is provided on the surface 2 a and four side surfaces of the plate 2. Specifically, the mouse pad 1 is formed by molding and drying the plate-like body 2 and then coating and baking the surface 2a and the four side surfaces with an antibacterial glaze. The mouse pad 1 of this embodiment has the antibacterial glaze layer 3 formed on the front surface 2a and the four side surfaces. However, the mouse pad 1 having the antibacterial glaze layer formed on only the front surface or the entire surface including the back surface is also applicable to the present invention. Is included in the category.

[0014] By coating the plate-like body with the antibacterial glaze layer, a more sanitary mouse pad can be formed. As the antibacterial glaze for forming the antibacterial glaze layer 3, a glaze containing an antibacterial metal component such as silver, copper, zinc or the like can be preferably used. May be something.

On the back surface 2b side of the plate-like body 2, anti-slip members 4a, 4b, 4c are attached, respectively. Specifically, the anti-slip members 4a, 4b, and 4c of this embodiment are formed by forming silicone rubber in a disk shape, and are fixedly mounted in recesses provided on the back surface 2b of the plate-like body 2, respectively. Have been.

Thus, it is possible to prevent the mouse pad from moving with the movement of the mouse, and to prevent the mounting surface such as the table from being damaged.
