배경기술Background
컴퓨터의 사용이 많은 사용자들은 장시간의 컴퓨터 사용에 따른 VDT 증후군을 겪게 된다 . 종래의 컴퓨터 마우스의 경우 사용자가 컴퓨터 마우스를 손으로 쥐고 작동할 때 손바닥이 바닥면을 향하게 될 수 밖에 없어 VDT 증후군을 유발하는 문제점이 있다 .Many users of the computer suffer from VDT syndrome due to prolonged use of the computer. In the case of the conventional computer mouse, when the user holds the computer mouse with his or her hand, the palm of the hand has to face the floor, causing a problem of VDT syndrome.
한편 , VDT 증후군을 방지하고 , 피로나 불편함을 느끼지 않도록 , 컴퓨터 마우스를 잡는 사용자의 손이 바닥을 향하지 않게 하여 마우스를 조작하게 할 경우 , 기존의 마우스의 구조로는 사용자의 조작이 익숙치 않은 문제점이 있었다 .On the other hand, in order to prevent the VDT syndrome and to feel the fatigue or discomfort, when the user's hand holding the computer mouse is not directed to the floor, the mouse operation is unfamiliar with the conventional mouse structure. There was.
마우스를 파지하는 방향을 개선하고자 하는 시도가 있었지만 , 마우스를 파지하여야 하는 근본적인 문제에서 여전히 탈피하지 못하였다 . 오히려 기존의 마우스의 구조를 유지한 상태로 마우스가 세워진 구조에서는 마우스의 안정감을 고려하여 마우스의 크기가 커지는 문제점이 있었다 . 또한 마우스의 크기가 커짐으로 인하여 휴대성이 떨어지는 문제점도 발생하였다 . 뿐만 아니라 , 마우스를 클릭할 때 마우스의 흔들림이 발생하여 정확한 포인팅이 어려워짐으로 인하여 빠른 마우스의 움직임이 필요한 캐드 프로그램이나 , 게임 프로그램에서의 사용에는 적합하지 않은 문제점도 있다 .Attempts have been made to improve the direction of gripping the mouse, but still have not escaped the fundamental problem of gripping the mouse. On the contrary, in the structure in which the mouse is erected while maintaining the structure of the existing mouse, the size of the mouse was increased in consideration of the stability of the mouse. In addition, as the size of the mouse increases, the portability is poor. In addition, there is a problem that it is not suitable for use in a CAD program or a game program that requires fast mouse movement due to the shaking of the mouse when the mouse is clicked, making accurate pointing difficult.

기술적 과제Technical challenge
컴퓨터의 사용이 필수가 되면서 하루 종일 컴퓨터를 사용하는 사용자가 많이 증가하고 , 이에 따라 컴퓨터를 장시간 사용함으로써 눈 , 팔 , 허리 등에 이상이 발생하는 경우가 많다 . 장시간에 걸쳐 쌓여지는 신체의 피로는 즉각 증상이 나타나는 것이 아니라 약 1-10년이 지나고 나서 그 부작용이 나타나게 된다 .As the use of computers becomes mandatory, the number of users who use computers all day increases, and as a result, the eyes, arms, and lower back are frequently caused by using the computer for a long time. Body fatigue that builds up over long periods of time is not immediately symptomatic, but after about 1-10 years, its side effects occur.
허리나 목의 경우 의자의 앉은 자세를 바로 잡으면 피로에 따른 부작용을 쉽게 예방할 수 있지만 키보드와 마우스를 항상 사용해야 하는 손과 팔 등에는 자세를 바로 잡아 주는 보조 기구를 이용하더라도 조금씩 피로가 쌓이게 된다 .In the case of the back or neck, it is easy to prevent the side effects of fatigue by correcting the sitting position of the chair. However, even if you use the assistive device to correct the posture, the fatigue is gradually accumulated in the hands and arms where the keyboard and the mouse should always be used.
특히 , 키보드와 마우스는 손목 , 어깨 , 팔꿈치 , 목 등의 부위에 광범위하게 통증을 불러올 수 있다 . 장시간 키보드와 마우스를 사용하는 사람들이 주로 통증을 호소하며 , '키보드 엘보우 ' 등의 신조어가 나올 만큼 최근 그 빈도가 늘어나는 것으로 알려졌다 . 이를 반영하듯 정형외과 , 재활의학과 , 가정의학과 등의 관련 진료과에는 환자들이 드물지 않게 찾아온다는 것은 이미 널리 알려진 사실이다 .In particular, keyboards and mice can cause a wide range of pain in the wrist, shoulders, elbows, and neck. People who use keyboards and mice for a long time mainly complain of pain, and the frequency is increasing recently as new words such as 'keyboard elbow' emerge. As a reflection of this, it is well known that patients are rarely visited by departments of orthopedic, rehabilitation, and family medicine.
이처럼 장시간의 키보드와 마우스 사용으로 통증이 오는 이유는 단순한 반복작업으로 인해 특정 부위의 근육과 힘줄이 과다하게 사용되기 때문이다 . 가끔 염증 증상이 같이 나타나기도 하며 , 심하면 근육 무력증까지 일으키기도 한다 . 한 연구 보고서에 의하면 하루 5시간 이상 키보드 작업을 하는 사람이 5시간 미만 작업하는 사람보다 근육 관련 질병의 발병율이 12배나 높은 것으로 조사되었다 .The pain caused by prolonged use of the keyboard and mouse is due to the excessive use of muscles and tendons in certain areas due to simple repetition. Sometimes the symptoms of inflammation appear together, and even worse, muscle weakness. One study found that people working on keyboards for more than five hours a day had a 12-fold higher incidence of muscle-related diseases than those working less than five hours.
이러한 21세기 신종 컴퓨터 증후군으로부터 사용자를 보호하기 위한 가장 이상적인 방법은 기존에 인체에 자극을 주는 형태의 키보드와 마우스를 인체공학적 친인간적으로 제작된 주변기기를 개발하여 피로를 최소화 하는 것이다 .The most ideal way to protect the user from the 21st century new computer syndrome is to minimize fatigue by developing ergonomic and human-friendly peripherals for keyboards and mice that have been previously stimulated.
일반적으로 사용되는 마우스는 장시간 사용시 팔과 어깨에 통증을 유발시킨다 .Commonly used mice cause pain in the arms and shoulders after prolonged use.
마우스는 컴퓨터를 사용하는데 있어 필수 주변 기기 중 하나로 사용 빈도가 높은 주변기기이다 . 따라서 장기간 사용으로 인한 팔과 손목 , 어깨에 많은 자극을 주기 때문에 팔목 보호대나 젤 패드와 같은 기능성 보조 기구들이 널리 보급되었다 . 그러나 , 마우스를 사용하는데 있어 가장 근본적인 문제는 손바닥이 바닥으로 향해 있다는 점이다 . 일반적인 사용 방식의 마우스를 사용하게 되면 팔꿈치에서 손목까지 팔목이 휜 자세로 작업을 해야 하므로 팔 전체와 어깨에 부담을 주게 된다 .A mouse is one of the most popular peripherals for using a computer. Therefore, functional aids such as wrist straps and gel pads have become widespread because they provoke a lot of irritation to arms, wrists and shoulders due to prolonged use. However, the most fundamental problem with using a mouse is that the palms are facing down. When using a regular mouse, the elbows to wrists need to be worked in a crooked position, putting strain on the entire arm and shoulders.

To improve the performance of the work and to prevent VDT syndrome.
발명의 실시를 위한 최선의 형태Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
상기의 과제를 해결하는 수단으로써 , 본 발명에 도 1 내지 도 4에 따른 제 1 실시예의 컴퓨터용 마우스 (10)는 마우스가 놓여져 사용되는 면에 수평한 베이스 (12)와 상기 베이스에 대하여 상측으로 돌출되고 전방으로 경사지게 배치된 손잡이 (16)를 포함한다 . 상기 베이스의 바닥면 (30)에는 상기 마우스 (10)의 움직임을 감지하는 센싱부가 설치된다 . 여기서 , 상기 베이스 (12)의 상측면에는 안착홈 (14)이 구비된다 . 상기 안착홈 (14)은 상기 베이스 (12)에서 손잡이 (16)의 둘레를 따라 형성된다 . 사용자는 안착홈 (14) 위에 손날을 위치시키고 , 아래로 누르는 압력을 가하여 , 마우스와 손 사이의 마찰력을 증가시켜서 , 마우스를 손가락으로 감싸서 파지하지 않고서도 마우스를 움직일 수 있게 된다 .As a means for solving the above problem, the computer mouse 10 of the first embodiment according to the present invention according to Figs. 1 to 4 has a base 12 horizontal to the surface on which the mouse is placed and used upwards with respect to the base. A handle 16 protruding and disposed obliquely forward. The bottom surface 30 of the base is provided with a sensing unit for detecting the movement of the mouse (10). Here, the mounting groove 14 is provided on the upper side of the base 12. The seating groove 14 is formed along the circumference of the handle 16 in the base 12. The user places the blade on the seating groove 14 and applies downward pressure to increase the friction force between the mouse and the hand, so that the mouse can be moved without wrapping and holding the mouse with a finger.
마우스를 손가락으로 감싸서 파지하지 않아도 되기 때문에 , 한결 자유로워진 손가락으로 마우스를 정밀하고 신속하게 조작할 수 있다 . 상기 손잡이 (16)의 상측의 단부 (18)에는 트랙 볼 (20)이 구비된다 . 특히 자유로워진 엄지 손가락으로 도 1의 손잡이 (16)의 상측의 단부 (18)에 마련되어 있는 트랙 볼 (20)의 조작이 매우 수월하고 , 트랙 볼 (20)의 고유 기능인 마우스 포인터의 세밀한 조작이 가능하게 된다 .You do not need to wrap the mouse with your fingers to hold it, so you can operate the mouse precisely and quickly with your free finger. The upper end 18 of the handle 16 is provided with a track ball 20. In particular, with the free thumb, the operation of the track ball 20 provided at the upper end 18 of the handle 16 of FIG. 1 is very easy, and the detailed operation of the mouse pointer which is a unique function of the track ball 20 is possible.
