Abstract

PURPOSE: A mouse for the STAR CRAFT is provided to perform more functions than a conventional mouse by adding some functions to each button of the conventional ball mouse so that a game user may enjoy the STAR CRAFT without using a keyboard. CONSTITUTION: A mouse for the STAR CRAFT comprises a track ball and 3 buttons. Each button has 3 function keys so that the mouse can operate 9 functions. The button comprises one groove(10), other two grooves(11,12), and protrusions(13,14). The groove(10) has contacts(7-9) formed at a proper position of the mouse. The two grooves(11,12), and protrusions(13,14) are formed on an upper and a lower face of the button. In a state that the button is elastically supported by a spring installed at the groove(11), one button can operate 3 functions by switching on/off the contacts(7-9).

스타 크래프트 마우스 {Star craft mouse}Star craft mouse {Star craft mouse}

본 발명은 마우스에 관한 것으로, 특히 스타 크래프트 게임을 할 때 키보드를 사용하지 않고도 마우스로만 게임을 할 수 있도록 한 스타 크래프트 마우스에 관한 것이다.TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a mouse, and more particularly, to a starcraft mouse, which allows a game to be played only with a mouse without using a keyboard when playing a starcraft game.

최근 널리 행해지고 있는 스타크래프트 게임은 1998년 미 블리자드사에서 개발한 실시간 전략시뮬레이션 게임의 일종으로서 미래 우주를 배경으로 지구인의 후손인 테란,잔인한 외계종족인 저그,발달한 과학문명을 지닌 프로토스 이 3종족이 서로의 생존을 위해 치열하게 싸워나가는 것을 그 줄거리로 한다.Recently, StarCraft is a real-time strategy simulation game developed by Blizzard in 1998. It is based on the future universe of terran, a descendant of Earth, a zerg alien race, and a protoss with a developed scientific civilization. The plot is to fight fiercely for the survival of each other.

게이머는 이 중 한 종족을 선택해서 자원을 모으고 건물을 짓고 유닛을 생산하여 적으로 설정된 상대방 종족을 유닛간의 평형관계와 유닛 특성,지형지물을 파악하여 무찔러 승리하면 된다.Gamers can choose one race to collect resources, build buildings, and produce units to defeat opponents who are set as enemies by grasping the equilibrium relationship, unit characteristics, and terrain among units.

최근 이와같은 PC용 게임이 널리 보급되고 있는데 스타 크래프트와 같은 게임의 경우에는 왼손으로 키보드를 조작하면서 오른손으로 마우스를 사용하여 클릭함으로써 유닛과 건물을 선택하거나 명령을 내릴 때 혹은 액션 포인트를 지정할 수 있으며 또는 유닛과 그룹을 선택한 상태에서 유닛/그룹의 성격에 따라 명령어 수행을 할 수 있다.Recently, PC games are widely used. In games such as StarCraft, you can use the left hand to operate the keyboard, click the mouse with the right hand to select units and buildings, give orders or specify action points. Alternatively, with the unit and group selected, commands can be executed according to the characteristics of the unit / group.

통상 키보드의 9개의 숫자판을 단축키로 사용하여 예를들어 "1"에는 공격, "2"에는 현위치 고정, "3"에는 이동, "4"에는 순찰 등의 기능을 수행하도록 하고 있다.Normally, nine numbers on the keyboard are used as shortcut keys, for example, "1" to attack, "2" to fix the current position, "3" to move, and "4" to patrol.

종래 이와같은 스타 크래프트 게임의 경우 왼손으로 키보드의 9개의 숫자판을 조작하면서 오른손으로는 마우스를 클릭하여 게임을 해야하므로 게임하기가 어려울 뿐만 아니라 번거로운 결점이 있었다.In the case of the conventional StarCraft game, while playing the nine numbers on the keyboard with your left hand, you need to play the game by clicking the mouse with your right hand.

본 발명은 이와같은 종래의 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 안출한 것으로, 본 발명의 목적은, 볼 마우스를 사용하되 볼 마우스의 버튼부를 개선하여 3개로 이루어진 버튼 각각에 3개의 기능을 추가하므로 총 9개의 기능을 수행할 수 있도록 함으로써 별도로 왼손으로 키보드를 조작하지 않고도 오른손만으로 게임을 용이하게 할 수 있도록 하는 스타 크래프트 마우스를 제공하는데 있다.The present invention has been made to solve such a conventional problem, the object of the present invention is to use a ball mouse, but by improving the button portion of the ball mouse to add three functions to each of the three buttons, a total of nine functions The present invention provides a StarCraft mouse that enables the user to easily play the game with only the right hand without manipulating the keyboard with the left hand separately.

이와같은 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명은 키보드의 숫자판을 단축키로 사용하지 않고 마우스가 갖고 있는 버튼을 이용하여 각 버튼마다 3가지 기능을 수행하여 3개의 버튼으로 총 9가지 기능을 수행하도록 구성함을 특징으로 한다.In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is configured to perform a total of nine functions with three buttons by performing three functions for each button using the buttons of the mouse without using the keyboard as a shortcut. It features.

이하, 본 발명의 실시예를 첨부된 도면을 참고로 하여 상세히 설명하면 다음과 같다.Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 1은 본 발명의 평면도로, 트랙볼(1)과 3개의 버튼(2-4)을 가진 마우스(5)에 있어서, 상기 트랙볼(1)의 좌측에 푸시풀 스위치(6)를 설치하고, 상기 버튼(2-4)에는 각 버튼마다 3개의 기능버튼을 설치하여 구성된 것이다.1 is a plan view of the present invention, in the mouse 5 having a trackball 1 and three buttons 2-4, a push-pull switch 6 is provided on the left side of the trackball 1; The buttons 2-4 are configured by installing three function buttons for each button.

도 2는 상기 도 1의 버튼(2-4)의 구조를 나타낸 것으로, 버튼(2-4) 각각의 구조는 동일하므로 하나의 버튼(2)을 예를들어 설명한다.FIG. 2 shows the structure of the button 2-4 of FIG. 1, and since the structure of each of the buttons 2-4 is the same, one button 2 will be described by way of example.

먼저, 상기 마우스(5)의 소정위치에 접점(7-9)이 부착된 홈부(10)가 형성되고, 버튼(2)에는 상하면에 홈(11)(12)과 돌출부(13)(14)가 형성되어 상기 버튼(2)이 홈부(10)에 스프링(15)에 의해 탄설된 상태에서 홈(11)에 손가락을 넣고 버튼을 이동시켜 상기 접점(7-9)을 온/오프 시키는 동작에 의해 3가지 키기능을 수행하도록 구성된 것이다.First, grooves 10 having contacts 7-9 are formed at predetermined positions of the mouse 5, and grooves 11 and 12 and protrusions 13 and 14 are disposed on the upper and lower surfaces of the button 2. Is formed to insert the finger into the groove 11 in the state in which the button 2 is settled by the spring 15 in the groove 10 and move the button to turn on / off the contact point 7-9. It is configured to perform three key functions.

이와같이 구성된 본 발명의 작용을 설명하면 다음과 같다.Referring to the operation of the present invention configured as described above is as follows.

본 발명은 기존에 키보드의 9개의 숫자판을 왼손으로 눌러 특정 기능을 수행하던 것을 오른손만 사용하여 트랙볼(1)을 조작하면서 마우스(5)의 버튼(2-5)을 당기거나 밀거나 또는 누르는 수단에 의해 9개 숫자판의 기능을 수행할 수 있는 것이다.According to the present invention, a means for pulling, pushing, or pressing a button (2-5) of the mouse (5) while operating the trackball (1) using only the right hand to perform a specific function by pressing the nine numbers on the keyboard with the left hand with the left hand. It can be used to perform the functions of nine numbers.

즉, 마우스(5)의 트랙볼(1)을 엄지손가락으로 상하좌우로 조작하여 커서를 원하는 위치로 이동시킨다.That is, the track ball 1 of the mouse 5 is operated up, down, left, and right with a thumb to move the cursor to a desired position.

그리고 상기 트랙볼(1)로 커서를 이동시키면서 나머지 손가락으로 버튼(2-4)을 눌러 원하는 기능을 수행할 수 있다.And while moving the cursor to the track ball (1) by pressing the button (2-4) with the remaining fingers to perform the desired function.

예를들어, 버튼(2)의 홈(11)에 손가락을 넣고 밀면 버튼(2)이 홈부(10)의 측면에 형성된 접점(7)을 눌러 접점(7)이 온되므로 키보드의 숫자판 "1"의 기능을 수행하게 된다.For example, when a finger is inserted into the groove 11 of the button 2 and pushed, the button 7 presses the contact 7 formed on the side of the groove 10 so that the contact 7 is turned on, so that the number plate “1” of the keyboard is turned on. Will perform the function of.

그리고 홈(11)에 넣은 손가락을 밑으로 누르면 스프링(15)이 압축되면서 돌출부(13)(14)가 접점(9)을 눌러 접점(9)이 온되므로 키보드의 숫자판 "2"의 기능을 수행하게 된다.Then, when the finger inserted into the groove 11 is pressed downward, the spring 15 is compressed, and thus the protrusions 13 and 14 press the contact 9 to turn on the contact 9, thereby performing the function of the number plate “2” of the keyboard. Done.

또한, 홈(11)에 넣은 손가락을 당기면 버튼(2)이 홈부(10)의 측면에 형성된 접점(8)을 눌러 점점(8)이 온되므로 키보드의 숫자판 "3"의 기능을 수행하게 된다.Further, when the finger inserted in the groove 11 is pulled, the button 2 presses the contact 8 formed on the side of the groove 10 so that the 8 is gradually turned on to perform the function of the number plate "3" of the keyboard.

한편, 사용자가 다른 버튼(3)(4)을 사용할 경우에도 상술한 바와같은 원리에 의하여 버튼(3)의 경우에는 키보드의 숫자판 "4,5,6"의 기능을 수행할 수 있으며, 버튼(4)의 경우에는 키보드의 숫자판 "7,8,9"의 기능을 수행할 수 있게 되는 것이다.On the other hand, even when the user uses the other buttons (3) (4), in the case of the button (3) by the principle described above can perform the function of the number plate "4, 5, 6" of the keyboard, the button ( In the case of 4), the functions of the numeric keypad "7, 8, 9" can be performed.

이상에서 설명한 바와같은 본 발명은 기존과 같이 마우스와 키보드를 같이 사용하지 않고 단지 마우스만 사용하여 오른손으로 커서의 기능과 제어기능을 용이하게 수행할 수 있는 효과가 있는 것이다.As described above, the present invention does not use a mouse and a keyboard as in the conventional art, and has an effect of easily performing a cursor function and a control function with a right hand using only a mouse.
