Description

 Vertical mouth of small size

The present invention relates to a mouse of a computer, provided with a pressing plate on which a finger portion is placed, and moving the mouse by the frictional force generated when the pressing plate is weakly pressed by the finger rather than holding the mouse when moving the left and right up and down. The present invention relates to a computer mouse that can be made very small by minimizing fatigue and improving operation accuracy and convenience.

As the use of notebooks and computers increases, many prior arts have been developed to maximize the ease of use and portability. In particular, attempts to miniaturize by changing the shape, structure, or size of the mouse, but the problems caused by the intended miniaturization has caused the difficulty of gripping or unnatural gripping method. Another problem is that when the mouse is used a lot of time to give a lot of strain on the wrist caused a problem called VDT syndrome. Many prior arts have been developed for the prevention of VDT syndrome. In particular, much effort has been made to improve the gripping method where the palm is positioned downward, which is the biggest cause of VDT syndrome. At the forefront of the effort is the development of a vertical mouse with a gripping method where the blade is placed on the floor.

The vertical mouse holding method prevented VDT syndrome and was able to be used without feeling fatigue or discomfort. Vertical mice, however, have a disadvantage in that they are difficult to adapt to the initial user in an unfamiliar way.

While the improvement of the gripping direction has been made due to other problems, it still has not escaped from its original problem of gripping, but rather the size is largely increased in consideration of the stability of the standing mouse, causing inconvenience to users due to the large size, When the mouse is clicked, the mouse shake occurs, making accurate pointing difficult, and it is not suitable for use in a CAD program or a game program that requires fast mouse movement.

The present invention is to improve the inconvenience of the conventional mouse, and to improve the ease of use.

The present invention has been attempted to develop a mouse suitable for notebooks and PCs as the use of notebooks and PCs has increased, but a lot of small size mice have been developed in consideration of portability.

And due to the nature of the laptop, the place of use may be shaken, tilted or released.

There may be no room for it, in which case the right mouse is not being developed.

In addition, as the use time of the computer increases, the eye, the arm, the waist, and the like often become excessive. Body fatigue that builds up over long periods of time is realized at least several to ten years later, rather than immediately causing symptoms.

In the case of the back or neck, it is easily prevented by correcting the sitting position of the chair. However, even if you use the assistive device to correct the posture, you will gradually get tired even if you use the keyboard and mouse all the time.

In particular, keyboards and mice cause widespread pain in areas such as wrists, shoulders, elbows and necks. People who use the keyboard and mouse for a long time mainly complain of pain,

It is known that the frequency is increasing recently as new words such as 'keyboard elbow' emerge. Reflecting this, it is well known that patients rarely come to related departments such as orthopedics, rehabilitation, and family medicine.

The reason for the pain caused by using the keyboard and mouse for a long time is because of the excessive use of muscles and tendons in a specific area due to simple repetition. Sometimes inflammatory symptoms come together, and even worse, muscle weakness. A study in a foreign country found that people who work on the keyboard for more than five hours a day are 12 times more likely than those who work for less than five hours.

The most ideal way to protect the user from the 21st century new computer syndrome is to minimize the fatigue by developing peripheral ergonomically-produced peripheral devices and keyboards that stimulate the human body.

Commonly used mice cause pain in the arms and shoulders after prolonged use.

A mouse is one of the most popular peripherals for using a computer. Therefore, functional aids such as wrist protectors and gel pads have become widespread because they give a lot of irritation to arms, wrists and shoulders due to long-term use. However, the most fundamental problem with using a mouse is that the palm of the hand is directed to the floor. If you use the mouse in the usual way, the elbows to wrists to work in a crooked position to put the burden on the whole arm and shoulders.

The present invention is to solve the above problems by using the mouse at an angle to the natural position of the human body structure because there is no unnecessary twist to be transmitted to the wrist, arm, and shoulder even if used for a long time.

The present invention, in order to solve the above problems, is provided with a pressing plate on which the finger portion is placed, and instead of holding the mouse when moving the mouse left and right, instead of moving the grip by the friction force generated when pressing the pressure plate weakly with the finger. By doing this, the movement is easy to minimize the fatigue, and by rotating the left and right rotation knobs protruding by the pressure plate, it is possible to operate the fine scroll, and tilt the rotation knob when applying force from the side with your finger A click action is made to improve the accuracy and convenience of operation.

As described above, according to the present invention, the convenience of the operation is increased by not holding the mouse, and there is no inconvenience in the operation even if it is made in a very small size, thereby reducing the burden on the musculoskeletal system of the user due to the small and light weight. It improves work capacity and prevents VDT syndrome by enabling fast and fine operation.

The present invention is a means to solve the above problems, the first embodiment will be described in the pressing plate 1 of the thin plate is provided in the bottom portion, as shown in Figure 1 the finger grooves to improve the adhesion to the finger When the user places the middle finger or ring finger on the finger groove and presses down pressure, the friction force with the mouse increases, and the left and right move up and down, and the user can move without holding the mouse. The function as a mouse is performed by the action of the optical sensor 4 of FIG.

Rotating the rotary knob (3) formed to protrude on the pressing plate (1) with the thumb and the thumb not to grip the mouse to the left or right to give a function to the scroll operation.

The encoder 2 is configured to be formed on the lower part of which the rotary knob 3 is mounted, and the encoder 2 is rotatably fitted to the sensor plate 6 when described in detail with reference to FIG. 5. When the direction of the force applied to the rotary knob 3 is rotated on the sensor plate 6, that is, in the same direction as the arrow of FIG. 8, the switch pressed against the encoder 2 is operated to operate. When the rotary knob 3 is pressed down or picked up, that is, in the same direction as the arrow of FIG. 7, the pressed switch in contact with the sensor plate 6 is configured to operate.

Functions are assigned to each switch 5, and in detail, a left click button functioning as a general button and a right click button functioning as a function selection button, and a function setting button for setting a function by a user's selection, Set and use each one.

Undesirable movement of the mouse can be suppressed when the rotary knob 3 is rotated or when the rotary knob 3 is moved up, down, left and right, due to the action of the force held by the finger on the pressing plate 1.

As a further solving means, the second embodiment will be described. As shown in Fig. 9, the thickness of the rotary knob can be made thin to improve portability.

Referring to the third embodiment, which is another method of improving portability, the rotation knob is horizontally configured as shown in FIG. 10 to operate using the thumb.
