Description

Mouse pad that protects wrist}

The present invention maintains a downwardly inclined state from one side of the mouse pad located on the thumb side of the operator's finger placed on the mouse pad to the other side of the mouse pad, thereby minimizing the wrist bending caused by the use of the mouse The present invention relates to a wrist protection mouse pad that guides users to select the optimal angle that minimizes wrist bending during work by providing guidance to adjust the tilted angle of the mouse pad.

In a terminal (for example, a PC) supporting a Windows-based GUI (Graphic User Interface) environment, a mouse is used as an input device for executing a command for a user's desired object.

A mouse performing these functions is made to be held in the user's hand with a certain size and thickness, and performs a function of receiving user's input by linking the pointer in the GUI environment by manipulating the movement in space on a surface such as a desk.

On the other hand, a user who uses a mouse uses his or her hand. The user's hand is placed on a desk and the user's hand is placed on a desk and the user's wrist is bent to hold the mouse while the palm is facing a flat surface.

At this time, since the user's palm is in pressure contact with the surface of the mouse, the user's wrist is bent inevitably according to the shape, thickness, and size of the mouse.

Accordingly, the user's arm and wrist not only act as a factor in inventing diseases such as carpal tunnel syndrome due to an unnatural bending state during the use of the terminal, but also fatigue that is concentrated only on a part of the user's body in the short term There is a problem that reduces work efficiency.

Moreover, when carpal tunnel syndrome is invented, it tends to extend to muscle pain and nervous system disorders in the elbow, shoulder, and neck regions.

In order to solve this problem, a mouse that does not strain the wrist (see Patent Document 1) has been proposed.

Conventional mice that do not put too much strain on the wrist form a space about the size of a wrist protector on the rear part of the mouse body, and by attaching a wrist protector made of a gel-type shape-transformable material to the formed space, the wrist is bent in the mouse to prevent the arm from bending. It provides the advantage of minimizing fatigue and disease on the wrist and wrist.

However, in general, since the mouse must be individually provided for each of various factors including usage environments such as games or work and structural environments such as wired/wireless mice, there is a problem in that replacement costs are high.

Accordingly, the need for a means for minimizing fatigue and disease applied to the arm and wrist due to wrist bending caused by the use of a mouse without replacing the existing mouse has emerged.

As shown in Figures 1 to 7, the wrist protection mouse pad of the present invention largely consists of a base pad 100 and a support member 200 for angle adjustment.

First, the base pad 100 is a member on which the user's hand holding the mouse is placed, and various materials such as metal or plastic may be applied and used.

The support member 200 for angle adjustment is a member coupled to one side of the base pad 100 located on the thumb side based on the user's finger placed on the base pad 100, one side of the base pad 100 By maintaining a downwardly inclined state toward the other side of the base pad 100 in the base pad 100, it provides an advantage of minimizing the bending of the wrist caused by the use of the mouse.

In addition, the support member 200 for angle adjustment can also adjust the inclination angle θ for wrist protection, which is an angle that is inclined downward from one side of the base pad 100 to the other side of the base pad 100.

To this end, a binding hole 110 for a support member is formed through one side surface of the base pad 100 .

In addition, the support member 200 for angle adjustment is provided integrally with the floor support 210 supported on the floor and the upper part of the floor support 210, and has a height that induces the base pad 100 to be inclined at an inclination angle for wrist protection. It is integrally provided on the upper part of the height body 220 for inducing the inclination angle and the height body 220 for inducing the inclination angle, and is a fitting protrusion 230 inserted into the fastening hole 110 for the support member of the base pad 100. However, the number of supporting members 200 for adjusting the angle is different in height and length of the height body 220 for inducing the inclination angle, and a plurality of them are provided to guide the inclination angle to be adjustable according to the selection.

2B shows five angle adjusting support members 200a to 200e that are different for each height and length of the inclination angle-inducing height bodies 220a to 220e.

The height of the height body 220a for inducing the inclination angle of the support member 200a for angle adjustment is the longest, and the height and length of the height body 220e for inducing the inclination angle of the support member 200e for angle adjustment is the shortest, In particular, the height and length of the height body 220a for inducing the inclination angle of the support member 200a for angle adjustment is '0' (unit: mm can be used), that is, it can be used as having no length itself.

In addition, one pair of binding holes 110 for support members formed through one side of the base pad 100 are formed in a pair at the top and bottom, respectively, and the number of support members 200 for angle adjustment is the number of binding holes 110 for support members. ), but provided with two pieces having the same height and length of the height body 220 for inducing the inclination angle, so that the tilted state can be firmly maintained.

On the other hand, the upper and lower portions of the other side surface of the base pad 100 are also through-formed with binding holes 110 for support members, respectively, and the upper and lower portions of the other side surface of the base pad 100 have the base pad 100 exposed to external force during use. It is preferable to provide a friction function by binding and using angle adjusting support members 200e having a height of '0' so as not to be slipped or moved by the .

3A and 3E show a state in which the five angle adjusting support members 200a to 200e, which are different for each height and length of the inclination angle induction height bodies 220a to 220e, are attached to the base pad 100, respectively.

The inclination angle (θ) for wrist protection may be proportional to a predetermined angle between 0° and 12°, or five angle adjusting support members 200a to 200e may be provided for each predetermined angle.

Through this, the operator can select and use one suitable for him/herself among the five angle-adjusting support members 200a to 200e having inclination angles θ for wrist protection of various sizes that minimize wrist bending during work.

The material of the support member 200 for angle adjustment that performs this function can be used by applying various materials such as silicon having excellent elasticity, high carbon fiber, and rubber material.

5a and 5b are contrast views showing a cross-sectional state in which the operator's wrist is placed on the mouse pad for wrist protection of the present invention in comparison with a general mouse pad.

As shown, Figure 5a shows that the operator's wrist is placed on a general mouse pad, and the operator's arm and wrist not only apply stress to the arm muscles due to an unnatural bending state during work, but also press the carpal tunnel and press the median nerve By pressing, it can be confirmed that it can act as a factor inducing pain.

On the other hand, Figure 5b shows that the operator's wrist is placed on the mouse pad for wrist protection of the present invention, the base pad 100 is tilted by the inclination angle (θ) for wrist protection by the support member 200 for angle adjustment.

For this reason, by inducing a state in which the operator's arm and wrist are naturally opened outward, that is, an inclined state, along the slope of the base pad 100, the carpal tunnel and the median nerve are free from pressure, and the arm muscles are also relieved of tension, which occurs during work. It provides the advantage of minimizing the feeling of fatigue.

In particular, FIG. 5C shows that an object placed on a flat surface or an oblique line is affected by gravity and rotational force. When an object such as a cylinder or an ellipse is placed on an inclined surface, rotational force is generated according to gravity and the inclined surface, and the principle of rotating and rolling down the inclined surface is generated. Based on, in the case of a worker's wrist placed on the inclined base pad 100, even if the worker does not apply any force to the wrist, the palm portion naturally rotates upward, leading to a natural posture without causing any stress. .

In addition, the mouse pad for wrist protection of the present invention is further provided with a bar 300 for maintaining a distance to maintain a distance so that the two support members 200 for angle adjustment do not move.

At this time, the diameter of the floor support 210 among the components constituting the support member 200 for angle adjustment is made larger than the diameter of the height body 220 for inducing the inclination angle.

Through this, the spacing maintaining bar 300 is formed through the spacing holding hole 310 at a position corresponding to the pair of binding holes 110 for the pair of support members of the base pad 100, and the spacing holding hole formed therethrough. The diameter of 310 is formed to be about the diameter of the height body 220 for inducing the inclination angle, and the bar 300 for maintaining the distance is inserted into the two support members 200 for angle adjustment, so that the two support members for angle adjustment ( 200) provides the advantage of maintaining the interval so that it does not move.

Heat dissipation holes 320 are formed through the spacing bar 300 providing this function at predetermined intervals to support one side of the laptop, so that the heat generated from the laptop according to use is passed through the heat dissipation hole 320 It provides the advantage of guiding so that the cooling function can also be performed by dissipating through the.

On the other hand, FIG. 6B shows the temperature of the notebook computer in the state where the bar 300 for maintaining spacing is used in the notebook computer, and 39° C. was measured. As such, it can be confirmed that the notebook temperature is reduced when the space maintaining bar 300 is used in the notebook, and in order to maximize the cooling performance, the material of the space maintaining bar 300 may use aluminum having high thermal conductivity.

In addition, the mouse pad for wrist protection of the present invention also provides a means for guiding to support the wrist of the operator located in the air during work.

That is, on the lower side of the base pad 100, a wrist guard 400 for supporting a worker's wrist is detachably provided on the base pad 100.

In order to perform this function, a binding hole 120 for a protector is formed through the lower surface of the base pad 100 .

In addition, the wrist guard 400 is provided inside the convexly protruding wrist rest facet 410 and the wrist rest facet 410, and is a support frame 420 for maintaining the shape of the wrist rest facet 410. And as being connected to the lower surface of the support frame 420 for maintaining the shape, it consists of a binding hole 430 fitted into the binding hole 120 for the protector.

Here, the convexly protruding external shape of the wrist resting face 410 is made of a gentle arc shape, so that the entire wrist of the worker can be supported in contact, and a cushioning material such as a high elasticity sponge or memory foam can be applied to use. can

In addition, the support frame 420 for maintaining the shape provides an excellent support performance while using a smaller amount by applying a honeycomb structure.

7a and 7b are contrast views showing a side state in which the operator's wrist is placed on the mouse pad for wrist protection of the present invention in comparison with a general mouse pad.

As shown, Figure 7a shows that a worker's wrist is placed on a general mouse pad, and the operator's wrist located in the air during work is removed to remove the force required to maintain the wrist of the worker located in the air during work. As the mouse pad is contacted while pressing the wrist, the wrist is twisted more, and it can be seen that stress is added to the arm muscles.

On the other hand, Figure 7b is an advantage that the operator's wrist is supported on the wrist protector 400 attached to the mouse pad for wrist protection of the present invention, so that the operator's arm and wrist are kept in a straight line during work to minimize the occurrence of twisting of the wrist. provides

In addition, the wrist protection mouse pad of the present invention is also provided with a means for removing it when the mouse pad is contaminated.

To this end, a binding hole 120 for a protector is formed through the lower surface of the base pad 100 .
