[0040] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used in the specification of the present invention herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0041] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0042] See also Figures 1 to 13 , a multi-directionally adjustable support mechanism 100 provided in an embodiment of the present invention includes a base 10, a sphere 20, a connecting member 30 and a support body 50.

[0043] Among them, see Figures 1 to 4 as well as Figure 6The base 10 is used to be installed on an external structure. For example, when the external mechanism is set as a mouse body 210, the base 10 is connected to the mouse body 210, or the base 10 can be supported on a supporting surface, for example, when the supporting surface is a desktop, the base 10 can be supported on the supporting surface, or the base 10 is connected to a base for supporting the supporting surface to ensure the stability of the entire multi-directionally adjustable support mechanism 100 when in use; the sphere 20 is connected to the base 10; one end of the connecting member 30 is rotatably arranged relative to the sphere 20, and can be stationary after rotating relative to the sphere 20; the support body 50 is used to support an external object, for example, as a palm rest in the mouse 200, used to support the hand, that is, at this time the external part is the palm of the human body, or the support body 50 can be used to support an electronic device, and the support body 50 is rotatably arranged relative to the other end of the connecting member 30, so that the support body 50 can be rotated in different directions relative to the sphere 20 through the connecting member 30 to adjust the placement posture.

[0044] The above-mentioned multi-directionally adjustable support mechanism 100, since the base 10 is installed on the external structure, for example, when installed on the mouse 200 body, and when the support body 50 is set as a palm rest, the palm rest can not only rotate in different directions relative to the sphere 20 connected to the base 10 through the connecting member 30, so as to be able to rotate in various directions relative to the sphere 20, but also the palm rest can rotate relative to the connecting member 30. In this way, the palm rest has different adjustment methods to meet different customer needs and cooperate with the different usage habits or hand sizes of users.

[0045] Among them, the external structure of this embodiment can be set as a mouse body 210, that is, the multi-directional adjustable support mechanism 100 of this embodiment is applied to the mouse 200, and the support body 50 is set as a palm rest to support the palm. It can be understood that the curvature of the palm rest at this time can be set according to the ergonomic curvature of the palm to improve the comfort of the user when using it; or when the base 10 of this embodiment is supported on the support surface, or when supported by the base supported on the support surface, the support body 50 can be set to support electronic products, such as electronic devices such as tablets, mobile phones or game controllers, so that users can adjust different placement postures of electronic products. It can be understood that when setting to support electronic products, the support body 50 includes two parts with an angle of approximately 90 degrees, so that the electronic products can be placed conveniently.

[0046] Among them, when the sphere 20 is connected to the base 10, the sphere 20 can be connected to the base 10 through an axis, so that most of the area of ​​the sphere 20 can be exposed. When the connecting member 30 rotates relative to the sphere 20, a roughly hemispherical structure can be provided on the connecting member 30. The sphere 20 is embedded in the hemispherical structure, and the center point of the sphere 20 is located in the accommodating space of the hemispherical structure. The sphere 20 can rotate relative to the wall of the hemispherical structure, and there is friction between the two. In this way, the connecting member 30 can be rotated in all directions relative to the sphere 20, and can be stationary after rotation.

[0047] Specifically, see Figure 7 In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to increase the adjustment methods of the support body 50 relative to the spherical body 20, the two opposite sides of the spherical body 20 relative to the connecting member 30 are exposed, so that the connecting member 30 can not only drive the support body 50 to rotate left, right, upward, downward, etc. relative to the spherical body 20, but also can realize rotation in various directions such as upper left, lower left, upper right, and lower right, so that the adjustment range of the support body 50 is larger, the adjustment methods are more, and it is more adaptable to the needs of different users.

[0048] It can be understood that in order to avoid interference between the connecting member 30 and the base 10 when the connecting member 30 rotates relative to the sphere 20, the base 10 of this embodiment includes a connecting shaft 11 connected to the sphere 20, and the connecting shaft 11 is connected to the side of the sphere 20 exposed relative to the connecting member 30. Furthermore, the base 10 also includes a connecting portion 12 connected to the external structure, so that since the connecting shaft 11 has a certain extension length, the connecting member 30 is prevented from interfering with the connecting portion 12 during the rotation relative to the sphere 20.

[0049] In order to ensure that the connecting member 30 can rotate relative to the sphere 20 and remain stationary relative to the sphere 20, the sphere 20 can be made of a polymer material such as polytetrafluoroethylene, and the connecting member 30 can be made of metal, so that there is friction between the two and they can rotate relative to each other.

[0050] See also Figures 1 to 4 as well as Figures 6 to 13In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to further increase the adjustment methods of the support body 50 and provide more adjustment functions to the user, the connecting member 30 includes a first sliding member 31 and a second sliding member 32 which are slidably arranged with each other, and the first sliding member 31 can slide with the second sliding member 32 and then remain stationary; the first sliding member 31 is provided for the support body 50 to rotate, and the second sliding member 32 is arranged to rotate relative to the sphere 20. In this way, the connecting member 30 is arranged to include a first sliding member 31 and a second sliding member 32 which can slide relative to each other. While the support body 50 rotates relative to the sphere 20, the support body 50 can also be stretched or shortened relative to the sphere 20, thereby further increasing the adjustment methods of the support body 50, meeting the needs of more customers, and having stronger practicality.

[0051] Furthermore, in order to limit the stretching distance between the first sliding member 31 and the second sliding member 32 to avoid relative separation, a limit column 311 is provided on one of the first sliding member 31 and the second sliding member 32, and a slide groove 321 is provided on the other. The limit column 311 is slidably set in the slide groove 321. For example, when the first sliding member 31 is provided with a limit column 311, the second sliding member 32 is provided with a slide groove 321, so that the limit column 311 slides in the slide groove 321. When sliding to the two ends of the slide groove 321, the first sliding member 31 stops stretching relative to the second sliding member 32 or stops shortening relative to the second sliding member 32.

[0052] Specifically, one of the first sliding member 31 and the second sliding member 32 of this embodiment is columnar, and the other is cylindrical, and the cylindrical body is sleeved outside the columnar body, so that the two slide relative to each other and have friction so that they can be still after sliding.

[0053] Furthermore, in order to increase the feel of the first sliding member 31 and the second sliding member 32 when they slide relative to each other, the multi-directionally adjustable support mechanism 100 also includes an elastic sleeve 37, which is arranged on one of the first sliding member 31 or the second sliding member 32, and is abutted against the inner wall of the other of the first sliding member 31 or the second sliding member 32. For example, when the first sliding member 31 is set to be columnar and the second sliding member 32 is set to be cylindrical, the elastic sleeve 37 is sleeved on the first sliding member 31 and is abutted against the inner wall of the second sliding column 311 to increase the friction when the first sliding column 311 and the second sliding column 311 slide together, thereby increasing the feel when pushing and pulling.

[0054] Specifically, the first sliding member 31 of this embodiment is set to be columnar 1, and the second sliding member 32 is cylindrical; in other embodiments, the first sliding member 31 can also be set to be cylindrical, and the second sliding member 32 can be set to be sliding column. In this case, the elastic sleeve 37 is sleeved on the second sliding column 311 and is pressed against the inner wall of the first sliding member 31.

[0055] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 as well as Figures 8 to 13 In one embodiment of the present invention, when realizing the rotation setting with the ball 20, the connecting member 30 has a rotating head 33 that is rotatably set relative to the ball 20; the rotating head 33 includes a first limiting block 331 and a second limiting block 332 that are detachably connected, the first limiting block 331 is provided with a first limiting notch 3311 for accommodating the ball 20, and the second limiting block 332 is provided with a second limiting notch 3321 for accommodating the ball 20, and the second limiting block 332 is rotatably set relative to the first limiting block 331, so that part of the ball 20 can be restricted in the first limiting notch 3311 and the second limiting notch by rotating relative to the first limiting block 331, thereby When the second limit block 332 and the first limit block 331 are connected to the sphere 20, the second limit block 332 is in an initial connection state relative to the first limit block 331. For example, one end between the two is already in an initial connection state through a positioning bolt 34. At this time, the second limit block 332 is rotated in the direction of the first limit block 331 to clamp the sphere 20 between the first limit block 331 and the second limit block 332. At the same time, the other end of the second limit block 332 and the other end of the first limit block 331 are connected by a connecting bolt 35. Furthermore, the positioning bolt 34 for the initial connection of the second limit block 332 is also tightened to achieve limited installation of the sphere 20.

[0056] It should be noted that the rotation plane where the second limit block 332 is located is perpendicular to the axis where the positioning bolt 34 is located.

[0057] It can be understood that after the sphere 20 is limitedly installed, the center of the sphere 20 coincides with the center formed by the first limiting notch 3311 and the second limiting notch 3321, and the cross-section where the maximum diameter of the sphere 20 is located is within the range of the first limiting notch 3311 and the second limiting notch 3321, thereby preventing the sphere 20 from falling out of the relative connector.

[0058] Understandably, see Figure 3 and Fig.13 The connecting member 30 of this embodiment includes not only the first sliding member 31 and the second sliding member 31, but also the rotating head 33. Specifically, when the rotating head 33 and the first sliding member 31 or the second sliding member 32 are arranged, the first limit block 331 and the second sliding member 32 are in an integrally arranged structure, the first limit block 331 is provided with a supporting ear 3313, and the second limit block 332 is correspondingly provided with a connecting ear 3323. When supporting the ball 20, the connecting ear 3323 is supported by the supporting ear 3313, and the connecting ear 3323 is initially positioned by the positioning bolt 34, so that the connecting ear 3323 can rotate relative to the supporting ear 3313, thereby facilitating the installation of the ball 20.

[0059] Furthermore, since the first sliding member 31 and the second sliding member 32 are rod-shaped, in order to reduce the volume occupied by the entire connecting member 30, a first avoidance notch 3322 is provided on the second limit block 332, and the first avoidance notch 3322 is used to set the connecting bolt 35, so that after the first limit block 331 and the second limit block 332 are installed, it is avoided that the connecting bolt 35 protrudes from the side of the second limit block 332, causing the entire adjustment mechanism to occupy a large volume. By setting the first avoidance notch 3322, the volume occupied by the connecting member 30 is reduced.

[0060] Furthermore, in order to ensure the structural strength of the first limit block 331 and the second limit block 332 when rotating relative to the sphere 20, the connecting bolt 35 needs to be arranged away from the sphere 20. Therefore, the connecting bolt 35 is arranged at the end of the first limit block 331 and the second limit block 332 away from the sphere 20 as much as possible. In order to achieve this installation method, the second sliding member 32 is provided with a second avoidance notch 322 for avoiding the connecting bolt 35. Figure 2 As shown, in this way, the connection bolt 35 can be arranged as far away from the sphere 20 as possible.

[0061] See also Figures 1 to 5 as well as Figures 8 to 13 In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to better adjust the rotation of the support body 50, the multi-directionally adjustable support mechanism 100 includes an adjustment structure 60, and the support body 50 is rotatably arranged relative to the connecting member 30 through the adjustment structure 60, and the adjustment structure 60 can adjust the friction force when the support body 50 rotates relative to the connecting member 30. In this way, the adjustment mechanism not only realizes the rotation of the support body 50, but also can adjust the friction force when the support ear 3313 rotates relative to the connecting member 30, that is, it can adjust the rotational force when the support ear 3313 rotates relative to the connecting member 30 to meet the rotation requirements of different customers.

[0062] Specifically, in order to ensure the structural strength when the connecting member 30 rotates the supporting body 50, the connecting member 30 of this embodiment further includes a mounting head 36. Specifically, the supporting ear 3313 is rotatably arranged relative to the rotating head 33, the first sliding member 31 is connected to the mounting head 36, and the second sliding member 32 is connected to the first limit block 331. That is, the connecting member 30 includes the rotating head 33, two slidably arranged first sliding members 31 and second sliding members 32, and the mounting head 36 composed of the first limit block 331 and the second limit block 332, so as to form the entire connecting member 30 structure.

[0063] It can be understood that the mounting head 36 is set to be much larger than the diameter of the first sliding member 31 along the radial direction of the first sliding member 31 to ensure the supporting strength of the mounting head 36 on the supporting ear 3313. In other embodiments, a notch can also be set at the end of the first sliding member 31, and the supporting ear 3313 and the side wall of the notch can rotate, which can also achieve the effect of the rotating setting of the support body 50.

[0064] See also Figure 5 , is a schematic diagram of an adjustment structure 60 of an embodiment of the present invention, the adjustment structure 60 includes two screw rods 61 arranged opposite to each other, the screw rods 61 include a threaded section 611 and a smooth section 612, the threaded section 611 is threadedly connected to the connecting member 30; a rotating ear 52 is provided on the support body 50 and is rotatably arranged with the smooth section 612, the rotating ear 52 adjusts the rotational friction force relative to the connecting member 30 through the threaded section 611, that is, the two screw rods 61 rotate in a direction approaching each other, at this time, the rotating ear 52 is tightened, the two screw rods 61 rotate in a direction away from each other, and the rotating ear 52 is loosened, so that the friction force when the support body 50 rotates relative to the mounting head 36 of the connecting member 30 is realized to meet different user needs. In another embodiment, the adjustment structure 60 can be configured as two first connecting members and a second connecting member that are threadedly connected to each other. The first connecting member also has a smooth section for the rotating ear to rotate and a connecting section that is threadedly connected to the mounting head. The second connecting member is not only threadedly connected relative to the mounting head but also threadedly connected relative to the first connecting member. The first connecting member and the second connecting member can be rotated relative to the mounting head 36 respectively to achieve the adjustment of the rotational friction force of the support body 50 relative to the mounting head 36.

[0065] In order to facilitate the rotational installation of the support body 50 and the mounting head 36, an arc-shaped support block 361 is provided on each of the two opposite sides of the radial direction of the screw rod 61 on the connecting member 30. Figure 3 As shown, the rotating ear 52 is rotatably arranged relative to the arc-shaped support block 361, that is, an arc-shaped support block 361 is respectively provided on the opposite sides of the radial direction of the screw rod 61 of the mounting head 36. When the support body 50 is installed, the arc-shaped support blocks 361 on both sides support the two rotating ears 52, thereby realizing the initial positioning of the support body 50 and avoiding the support body 50 from tilting. The adjustment structure 60 can be used for connection later. In this way, the installation of the rotational connection of the support body 50 relative to the connecting member 30 is facilitated.

[0066] in, Figure 8 and Fig. 9 It is a schematic diagram of some usage modes of the first sliding member 31 and the second sliding member 32 in the multi-directionally adjustable support mechanism when they are in a stretched state; Figures 10 to 13This is a diagram illustrating some usage methods when the first sliding member 31 and the second sliding member 32 in the multi-directionally adjustable support mechanism are in a retracted state. Users can use them in combination according to their own preferences, with different adjustment methods including rotation relative to the sphere 20, extension and retraction of the first sliding member 31 and the second sliding member 32, and rotation of the support body 50.

[0067] The multi-directionally adjustable support mechanism 100 of the present invention can be applied not only to a mouse, but also, in one embodiment, to a support device for supporting an electronic device. The base 10 is used to support a support surface, or the base is connected to a base for supporting the support surface, and the support body 50 is used to support the electronic device. For example, the support body 50 can be configured to include two support portions that are approximately 90 degrees apart. The electronic device can be placed on the support body 50, and the screen of the electronic device can be set toward the user. At the same time, the first sliding member 31 and the second sliding member 32 can be set to a vertical state in the initial state, so that the user can adjust the placement of the support body 50 according to different needs. The electronic device can be a mobile phone, a tablet, a game controller or other electronic device.

[0068] See also Fig.14 In another embodiment, the present invention further provides a mouse 200 , which includes the above-mentioned multi-directionally adjustable support mechanism 100 and a mouse body 210 .

[0069] The mouse body 210 may include a shell, a roller and buttons arranged on the shell, and a main control PCB arranged in the shell.

[0070] Among them, the base 10 is connected to the mouse body 210, the support body 50 is a palm rest, and is exposed relative to the mouse body 210, and the ball 20 is hidden in the mouse body 210. In this way, the palm rest supports the user's palm, and can not only rotate in various directions relative to the ball 20 through the connecting member 30, but the palm rest can also rotate relative to the connecting member 30, and the connecting member 30 also includes a first sliding member 31 and a second sliding member 32 that are slidably arranged with respect to each other, so that the palm rest has a variety of different combinations of adjustment methods to meet the adjustment needs of different customers.

[0071] It can be understood that when the multi-directionally adjustable support mechanism 100 is in the initial state, the first sliding member 31 and the second sliding member 32 are in a horizontal state, and the support body 50 can also be set to a horizontal state.

[0072] The technical means disclosed in the scheme of the present invention are not limited to the technical means disclosed in the above-mentioned implementation mode, but also include technical schemes composed of any combination of the above-mentioned technical features. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications are also regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
