RU85699U1 - MANIPULATOR MOBILE "MONAR" - Google Patents

Abstract

The manipulator is designed to control office equipment and mobile devices: for use in mobile phones and communicators, personal digital assistants (PDAs), laptops, desktop computers, etc. It is also intended to replace the styluses that control communicators and PDAs by pressing on the touch screen, which contributes to deterioration of the screen and deterioration of image visibility. Also, the manipulator is able to complement the range of manipulators: mouse, joystick, trackball.

The practical side of Monar: the ability to do without a table or stand, which will save space on your desktop. It is mounted on the index finger of the hand, and is not removable when working with the keyboard and fountain pen.

Monar in its shape resembles a ring with a large stone. When used, it is worn on the index finger in the manner of a ring inverted with a stone inward towards the palm of the hand. A look at the attached illustrations will show a clearer picture (see Figure 2, page 3 of the appendix).

The utility model "Monar" is a mobile wrist manipulator for controlling office equipment and mobile devices by manipulating the control elements of the device (Figure 1, Figure 1 elements 2-4) pre-mounted on the index finger of the right or left (for left-handed) hands (see Figure 2 )

The shape resembles a ring with a large stone containing the following controls: the control sensor field-button (control ball-button) under the thumb - element 2. Designed to control the arrow or cursor on the screen. When you click on the field (ball), the button is triggered - similar to clicking on the right (additional) mouse button. The control button under the index finger is element 3, similar to the left (main control) mouse button. The scrolling roller under the middle or index finger - element 4 - is similar to the scrolling rollers as on the latest mouse models.

The manipulator is implemented using standard components for manipulators such as "mouse", "trackball" or "touchpat" (touchpat) that is used in laptops, but with the necessary miniaturization of the filling.

1. The case (figure 1, figure 1, element 1), like other external parts, is made of plastic.

2. Controls (figure 1, figure 1 elements 2-4)

2.1.a. The control element is in the form of a touch field-button (element 2), as in the touchpad - touch control of a laptop.

2.2.b. The control element is in the form of a ball-button (element 2), as implemented in trackball type manipulators.

3. The main control button (element 3).

4. Scrolling roller (element 4).

3. Implementation of methods for connecting to devices.

3.a. Connection with devices is via a cord with standard plugs such as USB2, P / S2.

3.b. Connection with devices is via a radio signal with standard communication protocols.

5. The method of fastening on a finger is carried out by means of a fabric strap or flexible plastic threaded into special brackets on the case (elements 5).

Description

Refers to computer technology and communications. Designed to control office equipment and mobile communicators. Including for use in mobile phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), laptops, desktop computers, GPS-navigators, electronic notebooks, organizers of game consoles, etc.

The type of manipulator closest to the described utility model: “Sigma SGM2”, which implements the same baseless wrist model with a control ball as in trackball type manipulators. When using the above manipulator, the device is held in hand in the manner of a gun with a control button in place of the trigger. The Sigma SGM2 manipulator has not yet received wide distribution.

This manipulator is designed to replace the styluses that control communicators and PDAs by pressing the graphic image of devices on the touch screen, which contributes to the rapid deterioration of the screen and the deterioration of image visibility. Also, the manipulator is able to partially replace and complement the line of manipulators: mouse, joystick, trackball .;

The manipulator is designed to provide convenience and practicality when using high-tech devices in the absence of the ability to use conventional manipulators such as a computer mouse, controlling office equipment even on the go. This does not require a table, “mouse pad” or any other stand.

The practical side of Monar - (from the words: “manipulator” and “wrist”) - the ability to do without a table or stand, which will save space on your desktop. And, the main advantage of the device is that when working on a computer, it is often necessary to take your hand away from a “mouse” type manipulator and type characters on the keyboard, then grope the mouse again. Such repeated manipulations distract the attention of users and eat up part of the time. Monar, however, is mounted on the index finger of the hand, and is not removed when working with the keyboard, which may cause some inconvenience, but this is a matter of practice, and a design suitable for the user's hand.

Managing the Monar is carried out as follows: the index finger is threaded into the ring of the Monar strap, controlling the touch field (or controlling the ball) in the direction of the thumb (see illustration), like a ring turned upside down with a stone (for a left-handed person, a mirror model of the manipulator is made, respectively). With your thumb, perform displacements along the touch field (control ball) in any direction, thereby moving the pointer ("arrow") on the monitor screen. Press the control button with the index finger, which is equivalent to pressing the left mouse button. With the middle finger you can rotate and press the scroll wheel, which is located closer to the middle finger next to the control button. Pressing the control sensor field (control ball) with the thumb until a characteristic click is equivalent to pressing the right mouse button.

The utility model in its shape resembles a ring with a large stone. When used, it is worn on the index finger in the manner of a ring inverted inward towards the palm of the hand.

Made of plastic.

The utility model is illustrated by a schematic drawing and drawings. In the drawing (figure 1) and figure (figure 1) schematically

the manipulator is shown (pages 1, 2 of the appendix).

See also the following graphic illustrations depicting the method of fastening and operation of the product (Figure 2) p. 3 of the appendix.

Utility Model Implementation

The implementation of the described utility model is carried out on the basis of standard elements and components implemented in manipulators such as mouse, “touchpat” (touchpat). But with the necessary miniaturization of the filling during the embodiment.

It is important, at the same time, to reproduce the design of the utility model housing that is most convenient for operation from an anatomical point of view, as in the above photographic illustrations shown in Figure 2.

The described manipulator is designed to control office equipment and mobile devices: for use in mobile phones and communicators, personal digital assistants (PDAs), laptops, desktop computers, GPS-navigators, electronic notebooks, organizers, game consoles, etc.
