Description

在鼠标左主键和右主键的外侧后方新增两个主按键 技术领域
本发明涉及电脑指点设备技术领域，特别是涉及一种在鼠标正面左右两侧的后方新增两个主按键的四主键滚轮鼠标。
背景技术
最早的鼠标是单键鼠标，之后出现了两键鼠标，三键鼠标，三键滚轮鼠标，五键滚轮鼠标，甚至更多按键的滚轮鼠标，鼠标的按键数量是不断增加的。增加鼠标按键，是鼠标技术进化的一个主要方向。
因为现有鼠标设计的不合理，不完善，鼠标按键的数量不是越多越好的，除了少数用户为了玩游戏等一些特殊需求使用超过五键的鼠标之外，很少有用户去使用超过五键的鼠标，大多数用户在本质上都是使用三键滚轮鼠标，也就是一般只使用鼠标左键、鼠标右键、鼠标中键滚轮等三个鼠标按键。目前越来越流行的五键滚轮鼠标，就是在三键滚轮鼠标的基础上，在鼠标左侧面增加了前进键和后退键等两个按键。
目前，几乎所有的鼠标都是双主键鼠标，都只提供了两个主按键，即鼠标左主键和鼠标右主键。双主键滚轮鼠标除了两个主按键之外，其他鼠标按键数量不管有多少，都是辅按键，鼠标主按键和辅按键的设计理念、用户体验都是明显不同的。
例如：鼠标滚轮除了进行上下滚动，还可以作为鼠标中键进行按压或点击。鼠标中键就是一个标准的辅按键，和鼠标左主键、右主键的按压或点击相比，鼠标中键的按压或点击操作体验是截然不同的，主按键和辅按键的设计理念是有本质区别的。
例如：五键滚轮鼠标就是在三键滚轮鼠标的基础上，在鼠标右侧面新增两个辅按键，默认用来进行“前进、后退”操作。鼠标正面两个主按键和鼠标侧面两个辅按键的设计理念、用户 体验是截然不同的，两个主按键位于鼠标的正面，按键的按压面积较大，默认通过食指或中指进行向下按压，在驱动程序中是作为鼠标按键进行消息处理；而两个辅按键则位于鼠标的侧面，按键的按压面积较小，默认通过拇指进行向右按压，在驱动程序中是作为键盘按键进行消息处理。
例如：目前，一些鼠标在鼠标正面的左外侧或右外侧，设置了一个或多个辅按键，比如一些游戏鼠标在鼠标正面增加的一个火力键。因为鼠标正面的辅按键按压面积很小，位置，数量，功能都不统一，和全球统一技术标准的两个鼠标主按键，设计理念和用户体验是截然不同的。
因为位于鼠标正面、按压面积较大等因素，鼠标主按键的用户体验优于鼠标辅按键，这是显而易见，毋庸置疑的，所以，在鼠标默认提供两个主按键的基础上，新增主按键的用户体验，要明显优于新增辅按键的用户体验。
人体工学设计的一个重要设计原则就是避免人体损伤，减少鼠标手等职业病的发生。相对而言，辅按键比主按键更容易导致“指，掌，腕，肩”等身体相应部位的损伤，这是显而易见的，因此，增加主按键，减少辅按键，是鼠标进行人体工学设计、减少人体损伤的一个必然发展方向。
本发明就是在目前流行的双主键滚轮鼠标基础上，新增两个主按键，使双主键滚轮鼠标进化成为四主键滚轮鼠标，从根本上改变鼠标的设计理念，提升鼠标的用户体验。
发明内容
为了增加鼠标主按键的数量，优化鼠标滚轮操作，改进鼠标辅按键的先天缺陷，提升鼠标的操作体验，实现鼠标的功能扩展，本发明提供了一种包括四个主按键的四主键滚轮鼠标。
本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标至少包括左主键、右主键、第三主键、第四主键，鼠标滚轮、鼠标中键。
在左主键的左后方，设置一个第三主键；在右主键的右后方，设置一个第四主键；第三主 键和第四主键左右对称。
第三主键位于左主键的左后方，可以设置为宽度较窄，位置靠前，也可以设置为宽度较宽，位置靠后。
第四主键位于左主键的右后方，可以设置为宽度较窄，位置靠前，也可以设置为宽度较宽，位置靠后。
可以将第三主键设置为前进键，将第四主键设置为后退键。
可以将第三主键设置为上翻页键，将第四主键设置为下翻页键。
可以将第三主键设置为火力键，将第四主键设置为Escape键或Tab键。
可以将第三主键设置为主按钮，将第四主键设置为次按钮。
可以将鼠标左侧的左主键和第三主键分别设置为主按钮和次按钮，也可以将鼠标右侧的右主键和第四主键分别设置为主按钮和次按钮。
第三主键也可以称为“前主键、上主键”等其他的适合名称，第四主键也可以称为“后主键、下主键”等其他的适合名称。
从目前流行的双主键滚轮进化到本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标，鼠标的主按键数量从两个增加到四个，将会从根本上改变鼠标的设计理念和用户体验，是鼠标硬件技术进化的一次飞跃。

具体实施方式
为了能够更清楚地理解本发明的技术内容，下面结合附图对本发明做进一步说明。
实施例1：
参见图1，在左主键的左后方，设置一个第三主键；在右主键的右后方，设置一个第四主键；第三主键和第四主键左右对称。
第三主键位于左主键的左后方，第四主键位于左主键的右后方，第三主键和第四主键左右对称，宽度较窄，位置靠前。这样，食指或中指只需向左或向右移动，无需蜷曲食指或中指，就可以直接进行第三主键和第四主键的按压或点击。
参见图3，在默认将左主键设置为鼠标主按钮，右主键设置为鼠标次按钮的基础上，可以将第三主键设置为前进键，将第四主键设置为后退键。
目前流行的五键滚轮鼠标，在一种典型的双主键滚轮鼠标，将作为辅按键的前进键和后退键，默认设置在鼠标的左侧面。本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标，分别将第三主键和第四主键分别设置为前进键和后退键。前进键和后退键从辅按键进化成为主按键，从根本上改变了五键滚轮鼠标的设计理念和操作体验。
左右对称的美学原则，是很多鼠标的一个基本设计理念，本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标，左主键和右主键是左右对称的，第三主键和第四主键也是左右对称的，鼠标滚轮位置中间位置，也是左右对称的，完全符合左右对称的美学设计原则。
例如：目前流行的传统五键滚轮鼠标是由2个主按键和3个辅按键构成的，鼠标滚轮和鼠标中键位于中间位置，鼠标左主键和右主键位于左右两侧，虽然正面可以实现左右对称，但前进键、后退键这两个辅按键默认位于鼠标的右侧面，肯定不完全符合左右对称的美学原则。而 提供了第三主键和第四主键的全新五键滚轮鼠标是由4个主按键和1个辅按键组成的，鼠标滚轮和鼠标中键位于中间位置，鼠标左主键和右主键分别位于左右两侧，作为前进键和后退键的第三主键和第四主键同样分别位于左右两侧，都是完全的左右对称，真正符合左右对称的美学设计原则。
大多数用户都是习惯右手操作鼠标的右手用户，少数用户是习惯左手操作鼠标的左手用户，部分右手用户可能因为锻炼左手灵活性，避免右手损伤等多种原因，在短时间内通过左手操作鼠标，成为左手用户。本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标，对于左手用户和右手用户，是同等适用的。
例如：目前流行的五键滚轮鼠标，是针对右手用户设计的，便于右手用户通过右手大拇指在鼠标左侧面进行前进键、后退键等两个辅按键的操作，但对于左手用户，很难通过左手小指进行前进键、后退键等两个辅按键的操作，这显然是不合理，不完善的。而本发明所述四主键滚轮鼠标新增的第三主键，第四主键，分别位于鼠标正面的左右两侧，而不是鼠标的右侧面，不管是左手鼠标用户，还是右手鼠标用户，都可以无障碍使用四主键滚轮鼠标，通过食指或中指进行前进键、后退键的操作，避免了鼠标设计的先天缺陷，不会产生左手和右手的操作体验差异。
在轻薄鼠标的设计时，很难在鼠标的左侧面提供“前进键和后退键”，也很难在鼠标正面的左外侧或右外侧以辅按键的形式提供“前进键和后退键”，因此，传统五键滚轮鼠标的适用范围明显受限。而本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标则是在鼠标正面新增两个主按键，不仅可以适用在厚重鼠标上，同样也可以不受任何限制的适用在轻薄鼠标上。
鼠标正面的按键，默认是食指或中指向下按压，鼠标左侧面的按键，默认是拇指向右按压。鼠标正面按键的按压体验，明显优于鼠标侧面按键的按压体验，例如：鼠标正面的左主键和右主键，按压体验毫明显优于鼠标左侧面的前进键和后退键。再例如：少数鼠标将“前进键和后 退键”这两个辅按键设置在鼠标正面的左边缘或右边缘，而不是鼠标的左侧面，就是因为鼠标正面按键的按压体验明显优于鼠标侧面按键。本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标，新增的第三主键和第四主键，都位于鼠标正面，明显优于包括“前进键和后退键”在内的鼠标侧面各种类型辅按键，因此，作为一种全新五键滚轮鼠标的四主键滚轮鼠标，明显优于传统的五键滚轮鼠标。
鼠标主按键的按压面积明显大于鼠标辅按键，这是鼠标的一个基本设计理念，例如：鼠标左主键和右主键的按压面积，明显大于鼠标中键，也明显大于前进键、后退键、DPI设置键等所有的鼠标辅按键。本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标，新增的第三主键和第四主键，虽然按压面积稍小于左主键，右主键等两个主按键，但却明显大于前进键，后退键，DPI设置键等所有的鼠标辅按键。
大多数鼠标的正面一般都是贴合手型的弧形结构，并且鼠标左主键和右主键的按压面积很大，所以，鼠标左主键和右主键不仅可以通过指尖按压，也可以通过指腹按压。本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标，第三主键和第四主键同样不仅可以通过指尖按压，也可以通过指腹按压。但是，所有的鼠标辅按键，因为按压面积较小，都只能通过指尖按压，而不能通过指腹按压。鼠标主按键和辅按键的指腹按压体验，是截然不同的。
例如：设置在鼠标正面外侧的前进键和后退键，因为是辅按键，按键的按压面积很小，所以，只能通过指尖进行按压，而不能通过指腹进行按压；而本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标，将第三主键和第四主键分别设置为前进键和后退键，
参见图4，在默认将左主键设置为鼠标主按钮，右主键设置为鼠标次按钮的基础上，可以将第三主键设置为上翻页键，将第四主键设置为下翻页键。
通过上下滚动滚轮，就可以默认进行上下多行滚动屏幕。但是，在用户操作过程中，除了多行滚动屏幕之外，还经常需要翻页滚动屏幕。例如：在通过浏览器上网过程中，多数情况下，翻页滚动屏幕的浏览效果，要明显优于多行滚动屏幕，但是，在传统的双主键滚轮鼠标上，通 过滚轮默认只能进行上下多行滚动屏幕，而不能进行上下翻页滚动屏幕，不仅可能会造成身体损伤，还不能为用户提供完善的屏幕滚动体验，这显然是有缺陷的，不合理的。
本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标，可以将第三主键设置为上翻页键，将第四主键设置为下翻页键，这样，通过上下滚动滚轮，就能够进行上下多行滚动屏幕，通过点击第三主键和第四主键，就能够进行上下翻页滚动屏幕，为用户提供了更加完善的屏幕滚动操作体验。
参见图5，在默认将左主键设置为鼠标主按钮，右主键设置为鼠标次按钮的基础上，可以将第三主键设置为火力键，将第四主键设置为ESC键或TAB键。
在一些游戏鼠标正面的左上边缘，设置了一个专用的火力键，用来优化鼠标操作，提升游戏体验。但是，在鼠标正面的左上边缘设置专用的火力键，不是一种通用的鼠标设计，只有极少数的游戏用户才会选择和接受。
本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标，可以将第三主键设置为火力键。因为专用的火力键是辅按键，第三主键是主按键，因此，将第三主键设置为火力键，明显优于一些鼠标上提供的专用火力键。例如：第三主键的按压面积较大，按压体验较好，只要是四主键滚轮鼠标都可以提供。而专用火力键按压面积较小，按压体验较差，只有极少数游戏鼠标才会提供。
本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标，可以将第四主键设置为ESC键或TAB键。在大多数的电脑游戏过程中，可能需要暂时退出游戏，显示地图界面，装备界面，系统菜单等操作窗口并通过鼠标进行相应操作。但显示地图界面，装备界面，系统菜单等操作窗口的操作，一般都是先通过单击键盘上的相应按键几乎显示相应窗口界面，再通过鼠标进行相应操作，键盘和鼠标的联合操作并不完善。例如：在键鼠游戏中，默认通过左手进行键盘操作，右手进行鼠标操作，但是默认通过左手单击M按键激活地图就是很不合理的，而通过右手单击第四主键就好的多。再例如：通过连续三次单击第四主键，就可以在装备界面，地图界面等多个界面直接进行循环切换，再单击第三主键，就可以退出当前界面窗口，继续游戏操作，这就明显提升了游戏操作体 验。
将来，所有的四主键滚轮鼠标，都可以看做是游戏增强鼠标，游戏操作体验都会明显优于传统的双主键滚轮鼠标或游戏专用鼠标。
参见图6，在默认将左主键设置为鼠标主按钮，右主键设置为鼠标次按钮的基础上，可以将第三主键设置为鼠标主按钮，将第四主键设置为鼠标次按钮。
少数用户可能已经习惯了传统的双主键滚轮鼠标，可能会因为多种原因，希望保留传统的双主键操作模式。本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标，通过将第三主键设置为鼠标主按钮，将第四主键设置为鼠标次按钮，就可以完美实现对传统双主键滚轮鼠标的兼容。
参见图7，可以将左主键设置为鼠标主按钮，第三主键设置为鼠标次按钮，并将右主键设置为上翻页键，将第四主键设置为下翻页键。
目前，默认将左主键设置为鼠标主按钮，将右主键设置为鼠标次按钮，因为避免人体损伤，锻炼手指灵活性等因素，可以将左主键设置为鼠标次按钮，将右主键设置为鼠标主按钮。因为第三主键，第四主键和左主键，右主键一样，都是鼠标主按键，第三主键，第四主键也都可以被设置成为鼠标主按钮或鼠标次按钮。
例如：为了符合上下对应的操作直觉，就可以将鼠标右侧上方的右主键设置为上翻页键，将鼠标右侧下方的第四主键设置为下翻页键，相对应的，就会默认将左主键设置为鼠标主按钮，将第三主键设置为鼠标次按钮。这样，就可以获得最好的鼠标翻页操作体验。
再例如：如果用户因为频繁使用食指感觉到疼痛，就可以将右主键设置为鼠标主按钮，将第四主键设置为鼠标次按钮，这样，就可以无需使用食指，而只使用中指进行所有的鼠标主按钮和次按钮操作，有效避免人体损伤，这是鼠标人体工学设计的一个基本组成部分。
实施例2：
参见图2，在左主键的左后方，设置一个第三主键；在右主键的右后方，设置一个第四主 键；第三主键和第四主键左右对称。
第三主键位于左主键的左后方，第四主键位于左主键的右后方，第三主键和第四主键左右对称，宽度较宽，位置靠后。大多数情况下需要蜷曲食指或中指，才可以进行第三主键和第四主键的按压或点击，更容易进行左主键和右主键的操作，对双主键滚轮鼠标具有更好的兼容性。
实施例1和实施例2，图1和图2的唯一区别在于：图1所示第三主键和第四主键的位置相对靠前，宽度较窄，操作体验较好；图2所示第三主键和第四主键的位置相对靠后，宽度较宽，对传统鼠标操作习惯的兼容性较好。
目前流行的三键滚轮鼠标，除了提供左主键和右主键这两个鼠标主按键之外，还提供了和鼠标滚轮集成在一起的辅按键，即“鼠标中键”。因为三键滚轮鼠标实现了普及应用，所以，在Windows API中，从Windows操作系统层级分别提供了“WM_LBUTTONDOWN、WM_LBUTTONUP、WM_LBUTTONDBLCLK”、“WM_RBUTTONDOWN、WM_RBUTTONUP、WM_RBUTTONDBLCLK”、“WM_MBUTTONDOWN、WM_MBUTTONUP、WM_MBUTTONDBLCLK”等三个鼠标按键消息，但是，对于“前进键”和“后退键”这两个后来增加的辅按键，并没有提供专用的鼠标按键消息，而是采用“VK_XBUTTON1、VK_XBUTTON2”等两个键盘消息进行处理，这主要是因为鼠标主按键和辅按键的设计理念是截然不同的。本发明所述的四主键滚轮鼠标，新增的第三主键和第四主键，和鼠标左主键、右主键在本质上是相同的，和鼠标前进键、后退键这两个辅按键是有本质区别的，因此，随着本发明的普及应用，Windows操作系统将会提供类似于“WM_BUTTON3DOWN、WM_BUTTON3UP、WM_BUTTON3DBLCLK”、“WM_BUTTON4DOWN、WM_BUTTON4UP、WM_BUTTON4DBLCLK”等专用的鼠标消息，而不是直接沿用传统的“VK_XBUTTON1、VK_XBUTTON2”等键盘消息，只有这样，才会真正发挥四主键鼠滚轮鼠标的扩展潜力，实现各种增强功能。对于MacOS、Linux、Android等其他的操作系统也是如此。
鼠标按键从最初的一个增加到两个、三个、五个，甚至超过十个，因此，在鼠标上增加两 个鼠标主按键，属于本技术领域的公知技术，本发明对在双主键滚轮鼠标的基础上新增两个鼠标主按键的具体实现方式不做任何限制。
尽管已描述了本申请的多个实施例，但本领域内的技术人员一旦得知了基本创造性概念，则可对这些实施例进行另外的变更和修改，所以，所附权利意欲解释为包括上述实施例以及落入本申请范围的所有变更和修改。
显然，本领域的技术人员可以对本发明进行各种改动和变型而不脱离本发明的精神和范围。这样，倘若本发明的这些修改和变型属于本发明权利要求及其等同技术的的范围之内，则本发明也意图包含这些改动和变型在内。
本发明是电脑鼠标系列技术改进的一个基本组成部分。在本发明人稍后提交的另外一个发明专利中，将会详细描述对鼠标功能的更多优化完善和增强扩展。
