본 발명은 볼마우스장치에 관한 것으로, 특히 볼에 이물질 등이 부착되어 발생되는 볼의 슬립현상을 방지할 수 있도록 한 볼마우스에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a ball mouse device, and more particularly to a ball mouse to prevent the slip phenomenon of the ball caused by foreign matters attached to the ball.
컴퓨터의 주변입력장치의 하나인 볼마우스(1)는, 도 1 및 도 2에 도시된 바와 같이, 마우스패드(7)상에서 마우스를 이동시킴으로서 마우스본체(2)의 내부 바닥면에 전후 좌우방향으로 회전할 수 있도록 설치되어 있는 볼(4)이 x, y축방향으로 구르고, 상기 볼(4)과 마찰접촉하여 회전하는 x축 방향 탐지 롤러센서(5)와 y축 방향 탐지 롤러센서(6)가 마우스의 이동방향과 이동량을 검출하도록 되어 있다.As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the ball mouse 1, which is one of the peripheral input devices of the computer, moves the mouse on the mouse pad 7 in front and rear directions to the inner bottom surface of the mouse body 2. The x-axis direction detection roller sensor 5 and the y-axis direction detection roller sensor 6 which rolls in the x and y-axis directions and are rotated in frictional contact with the ball 4 are provided to rotate. Detects the moving direction and the moving amount of the mouse.
한편, 디스플레이(22)상의 커서를 이동시키기 위한 입력신호로서 사용되는 상기 검출신호 및 디스플레이상의 커서위치에서 선택된 기능을 실행하기 위한 스위치(3)의 상태를 표시하는 신호가, 케이블(23)를 통해 마우스(1)로부터 컴퓨터(20)의 본체부(21)로 송신되어 디스플레이(22)상의 포인터를 x, y축방향으로 자유로이 움직이게 된다.On the other hand, the detection signal used as an input signal for moving the cursor on the display 22 and a signal indicating the state of the switch 3 for executing the function selected at the cursor position on the display are connected via the cable 23. It is transmitted from the mouse 1 to the main body portion 21 of the computer 20 to freely move the pointer on the display 22 in the x and y axis directions.
그런데, 이러한 볼마우스에서 사용되는 볼(4)은, 볼이 구르는 평면과의 미끄러짐을 방지하기 위하여 고무와 같이 표면마찰계수가 높은 재료로 되어 있어 장시간의 사용할 때 볼의 표면에 먼지나 기름 등의 이물질이 부착되어 볼이 구르는 평면과의 슬립현상이 발생되어 마우스의 움직임이 제대로 이루어지지 않는 문제점이 있었다.By the way, the ball 4 used in the ball mouse is made of a material having a high surface friction coefficient such as rubber to prevent the ball from sliding with the plane that the ball rolls. There was a problem that the movement of the mouse is not properly made due to the foreign matter attached to the ball roll slip phenomenon occurs.
따라서 본 발명은 상기와 같은 종래 기술의 제반 문제점을 해결하기 위한 것으로, 본 발명은 볼에 이물질 등이 부착되어 발생되는 볼의 슬립현상을 방지할 수 있는 볼마우스의 제공을 목적으로 한다.Therefore, the present invention is to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, the present invention is to provide a ball mouse that can prevent the slip phenomenon of the ball caused by foreign matter is attached to the ball.
상기목적을 달성하기 위하여, 본 발명의 볼마우스는, 본체의 내부에 설치되어 본체의 바닥면으로 돌출되어 회전가능한 볼을 갖는 볼마우스에 있어서, 상기 볼의 전 표면에 러프직물부가 부착된 것을 특징으로 한다.In order to achieve the above object, the ball mouse of the present invention, the ball mouse is provided in the interior of the main body protruding to the bottom surface of the main body rotatable, characterized in that the rough fabric portion is attached to the entire surface of the ball It is done.

* 도면의 주요 부분에 대한 부호의 설명* Explanation of symbols for the main parts of the drawings
1 : 마우스, 2 : 본체, 3 : 스위치, 5,6 : 롤러센서, 10 : 러프직물부1 mouse, 2 body, 3 switch, 5, 6 roller sensor, 10 rough fabric part
이하, 본 발명을 첨부한 도면에 의거하여 상세히 설명하면 다음과 같다.Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
본 발명의 볼마우스의 볼(4)에는, 도 3에 도시된 바와 같이, 전 표면에 접착제에 의해 볼의 표면마찰계수보다 표면마찰계수가 높은 러프(rough)직물부(10)가 부착되어 있다. 상기 러프직물부(10)는, 도 4에 도시된 바와 같이, 분할된 복수의 러프직물편(10a)(10b)(10c)(10d)이 연속으로 연결되어 볼의 직경에 대응하는 직경의 구형상을 형성하고 있다.As shown in Fig. 3, a rough fabric portion 10 having a surface friction coefficient higher than that of the ball by an adhesive is attached to the ball 4 of the ball mouse of the present invention. . As shown in FIG. 4, the rough fabric portion 10 includes a plurality of divided rough fabric pieces 10a, 10b, 10c, and 10d connected to each other so that a sphere having a diameter corresponding to the diameter of the ball is provided. It forms a shape.
한편, 바람직하게는, 도 5 및 도 6에 도시된 바와 같이, 볼마우스의 볼(4)과 접촉되는 마우스패드(7) 및 롤러센서(5)(6)에도 러프직물부(1'')(10)가 각각 부착된다.On the other hand, preferably, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the rough fabric portion 1 ″ is also applied to the mouse pad 7 and the roller sensors 5 and 6 in contact with the ball 4 of the ball mouse. 10 are attached, respectively.
이하, 본 발명의 볼마우스의 작용을 설명한다.Hereinafter, the operation of the ball mouse of the present invention will be described.
마우스패드(7)상에서 마우스를 이동시킴으로서 마우스본체(2)의 내부 바닥면에 전후 좌우방향으로 회전할 수 있도록 설치되어 있는 볼(4)이, x,y축방향으로 구르고, 상기 볼(4)과 마찰접촉하여 회전하는 x축 방향 탐지 롤러센서(5)와 y축방향 탐지 롤러센서(6)가 마우스의 이동방향과 이동량을 검출하게 되는데,By moving the mouse on the mouse pad 7, the ball 4, which is installed on the inner bottom surface of the mouse body 2 so as to be rotated in the front and rear directions, rolls in the x and y axis directions, and the ball 4 The x-axis direction detection roller sensor 5 and the y-axis direction detection roller sensor 6, which rotates in frictional contact with each other, detect the movement direction and the movement amount of the mouse.
이때, 이와 같이 볼(4)의 회전이동시 볼(4)의 표면에 부착된 러프직물부(10)가, 마우스패드(7) 또는 마우스패드(7)의 러프직물부(10')와 접촉되고, 또한 롤러센서(5)(6)또는 롤러센서의 러프직물부(10)와 접촉된다. 따라서, 볼(4)의 표면의 러프직물부(10)에 이물질이 부착되더라도, 러프직물부(10)는, 볼의 표면마찰계수보다 큰 표면마찰계수를 가지고 있어, 동일한 조건하에서 러프직물부(10)가 부착되지 않은 경우보다 볼의 슬립현상은 더욱 늦게 발생된다.At this time, the rough fabric portion 10 attached to the surface of the ball 4 during the rotational movement of the ball 4 in contact with the mouse pad 7 or the rough fabric portion 10 'of the mouse pad 7 It is also in contact with the roller sensor 5, 6 or the rough fabric portion 10 of the roller sensor. Therefore, even if foreign matter adheres to the rough fabric portion 10 on the surface of the ball 4, the rough fabric portion 10 has a surface friction coefficient that is larger than the surface friction coefficient of the ball. The slippage of the ball occurs much later than in the case without 10).
이상, 설명한 바와 같이 본발명에 따르면, 볼의 표면에, 볼의 표면마찰계수보다 큰 표면마찰계수를 갖는 직물부를 부착하여 사용함으로서, 볼의 슬립현상이 러프직물부가 부착되지 않은 경우보다 늦게 발생되고, 따라서, 볼마우스의 사용기간을 길게 할 수 있다.As described above, according to the present invention, by using a fabric portion having a surface friction coefficient greater than the surface friction coefficient of the ball on the surface of the ball, the slip phenomenon of the ball occurs later than when the rough fabric portion is not attached. Therefore, the service life of the ball mouse can be extended.
