DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0045] For better understanding and implementation, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0046] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside" and "outside" etc. indicating directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0047] 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.

[0048] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0049] With the popularity of computers and mice, the mouse is used more and more in daily work. Since the mouse 300 on the market is placed on a support surface for use, such as a mouse 300 placed horizontally on a desktop, the hand 400 holds the mouse 300 to control the position of the cursor, for example Figure 1 The hand 400 is in a fixed position for a long time. Some users need to use the hand 400 for 5-6 hours or even longer every day. After years of use, it is easy to cause soreness, numbness and other conditions, that is, more and more users use the mouse. There are also some e-sports game players who need a lot of training skills. The average number of mouse activities per minute exceeds or even reaches 400 times, and carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) occurs in them. At the same time, due to factors such as different seat heights and different user heights, the single horizontal placement mouse on the market can no longer meet the needs of different usage environments and different users.

[0050] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a mouse 100 that can be adjusted in multiple directions, which can adjust the placement of the mouse to a comfortable posture for the user. Specifically, the user can adjust the mouse body 20 to improve the comfort during use, or because the mouse body 20 can be adjusted anytime and anywhere, the joints of the hand can be properly moved, thereby alleviating the discomfort caused to the hand by long-term horizontal use of the mouse.

[0051] See also Figures 2 to 20, a mouse 100 that can be adjusted in multiple directions provided in an embodiment of the present invention includes a base 10, a mouse body 20 and a connecting structure 30.

[0052] Among them, see Figures 2 to 13 The base 10 serves as a supporting foundation for supporting on a supporting surface; the mouse body 20 is movably arranged relative to the base 10; and the connecting structure 30 is connected between the base 10 and the mouse body 20 so that the mouse body 20 can rotate and / or retract relative to the base 10, thereby adjusting the placement posture of the mouse body 20.

[0053] The above-mentioned multi-directionally adjustable mouse 100 is provided with a base 10 as a supporting basis, and the mouse body 20 is used to receive instructions from the hand, and can be rotated and / or extended relative to the base 10 through the connecting structure 30, so as to be able to be adjusted to different placement postures. For example, it can be rotated relative to the base 10 to adjust to different directions, or stretch or shorten the distance relative to the base 10, or rotate, adjust and extend at the same time to meet the usage needs of different users, and can adapt to the needs of users of different heights or seat heights for different mouse postures. At the same time, after the posture of the mouse is adjusted, the use posture of the hand will also be adjusted to avoid using a single posture to click the mouse, so that the hand can be moved and the situation of mouse hand caused by being in a single usage state for a long time can be avoided.

[0054] It should be noted that when the multi-directionally adjustable mouse 100 of this embodiment is in use, the base 10 may be provided with structures such as a main control circuit board and a photoelectric sensor, and the mouse body 20 may be provided with structures such as buttons. When the entire mouse is in use, the base 10 can move along the surface of the support surface, thereby sensing the position of the mouse body 20 to position the cursor. The mouse body 20 has an upper operating surface 21, which is a support surface for the user's fingers.

[0055] The support surface may be a tabletop, or may be other structures having a support base, such as the surface of a support structure such as a chair or a support table.

[0056] The movement of the mouse body 20 relative to the base 10 can be rotation, extension, or a combination of rotation and extension, so that the mouse body 20 has different adjustment methods relative to the base 10, providing different adjustment methods to the user to meet the usage needs of different users.

[0057] For example, when the mouse body 20 is rotated relative to the base 10, a rotating shaft may be provided in one of the connecting structure 30 or the mouse body 20, and a connecting ear may be provided on the other, and the connecting ear is rotatably provided relative to the rotating shaft, so as to adjust the rotation of the mouse body 20. The direction of the mouse moving away from the user is set as the forward direction, the direction moving closer to the user is set as the backward direction, the direction moving closer to the display is set as the left direction, and the direction moving away from the display is set as the right direction. For example, in one embodiment, when the rotating shaft is set along the front-back direction, the upper operating surface 21 of the mouse body 20 can be rotated in the direction of moving closer to or away from the display, and the hand posture can be adjusted at this time; or in one embodiment, when the rotating shaft is placed along the left-right direction, the mouse body 20 rotates along the rotating shaft, and the mouse can be tilted forward or backward, which can also achieve the effect of adjusting the user's hand posture.

[0058] Furthermore, when the mouse body 20 is extended or retracted relative to the base 10, the connecting structure 30 can be set as a sliding member, which is connected to the mouse body 20 and is slidably set relative to the base 10, and has friction between the sliding member and the base 10, thereby realizing the telescopic movement of the mouse body 20 relative to the base 10; or the first telescopic member 32 is connected to the base 10, and is slidably set relative to the mouse body 20, and has friction between the sliding member and the base 10, thereby realizing the telescopic movement of the mouse body 20 relative to the base 10.

[0059] Specifically, in this embodiment, the mouse body 20 can rotate and retract relative to the base 10 to achieve adjustment of the mouse body 20 relative to the base 10 .

[0060] When implementing this adjustment method, please refer to Fig.12 , Fig.13 as well as Figures 15 to 17 In order to improve the multi-angle mode of the mouse during adjustment, the connection structure 30 includes a ball head 31 and a first telescopic member 32. The ball head 31 and the mouse body 20 are rotatably arranged. The first telescopic member 32 is connected to the ball head 31 and is slidably arranged with the base 10 and has a clearance fit with the base 10. That is, the mouse body 20 is provided with a receiving groove 22. Fig.14 As shown, the ball head 31 is embedded in the receiving groove 22 and is matched with the side wall clearance of the receiving groove 22. The two can rotate and have friction, so that the mouse body 20 can stop at any position after rotating relative to the ball head 31. Therefore, by setting the ball head 31, the mouse body 20 can rotate in any direction relative to the ball head 31. For example, when the upper operating surface 21 rotates toward the display, it can also meet the needs of users who are accustomed to using the mouse with their left hand, such as Figure 3 In the placement posture shown, the upper operating surface 21 is rotated away from the display, for example Figure 2The placement shown can meet the needs of users who are accustomed to using the mouse with their right hand; or the mouse can be tilted forward, tilted backward, or rotated in other areas between the forward and backward directions or the left and right directions, for example Figures 5 to 10 The different placement postures of the mouse body 20 can realize the rotation of the user in different directions, realize the adjustment of different placement postures of the mouse body 20, can adjust the use posture of the hand, make the wrist joint active, avoid being fixed in a single use posture, and relieve the discomfort of the hand in a certain posture for a long time; at the same time, with the expansion and contraction of the first telescopic member 32 relative to the base 10, the adjustment method of the mouse body 20 is further increased, for example, the direction of the mouse body 20 close to the base 10 is shortened, for example Figure 5 The mouse body 20 may be stretched away from the base 10, for example Figure 4 The placement posture shown can not only meet the use requirements of users of different heights or different seat heights, but also cooperate with the rotation of the ball head 31, further increasing the user's needs for different adjustment methods. In other embodiments, when the connection structure 30 is also configured to include the ball head 31 and the first telescopic member 32, the ball head 31 can be rotated relative to the base 10, and the first telescopic member 32 can be slidably arranged relative to the mouse body 20, which can also achieve the effect of rotating and telescoping the mouse body 20 relative to the base 10.

[0061] Furthermore, since the mouse body 20 can rotate in any direction relative to the ball 63 and needs to be telescopic relative to the base 10 through the first telescopic member 32, for example, in order to avoid interference between the mouse body 20 and the first telescopic member 32 when the mouse body 20 is tilted for use with the right hand or tilted to the left for use with the left hand, the mouse body 20 is further provided with avoidance grooves 23 in multiple directions, such as Fig.14 As shown, the avoidance groove 23 is connected to the accommodating groove 22, so that the setting of the first telescopic member 32 is avoided through the avoidance groove 23, so that the mouse body 20 can be adjusted in various directions.

[0062] See also Fig.12 , Fig.13 as well as Figures 15 to 17In one embodiment of the present invention, since the first telescopic member 32 needs to slide relative to the base 10, in order to ensure the structural strength of the mouse body 20 relative to the base 10 during long-term telescopic use, the connection structure 30 also includes a second telescopic member 33, the second telescopic member 33 is connected to the base 10, and the second telescopic member 33 and the first telescopic member 32 are slidably arranged, and the two are clearance-matched. In this way, by also setting a second telescopic member 33 in the base 10, the second telescopic member 33 is installed in the base 10 so that the first telescopic member 32 can slide, thereby increasing the support strength for the sliding of the first telescopic member 32 and also increasing the structural strength of the base 10. In another embodiment, a slide groove for the first telescopic member 32 to slide can also be set in the base 10, so that the first telescopic member 32 can slide directly relative to the base 10. It can be understood that due to the clearance-matching method, there is friction resistance between the two, and they can stop at any position after sliding to any position.

[0063] The first telescopic member 32 and the second telescopic member 33 of this embodiment are arranged in the up-down direction. Further, one of the first telescopic member 32 and the second telescopic member 33 can be arranged as a slider, and the other can be provided with a slide groove; or both can be arranged in a columnar shape, and one can slide on the inner wall of the other and be locked by friction.

[0064] Among them, see Fig.12 , Fig.13 as well as Figures 15 to 17 In this embodiment, the first telescopic member 32 and the second telescopic member 33 are both columnar, so that the two have a larger contact area during the sliding process, ensuring the stability of the two during sliding. Furthermore, the second telescopic member 33 is sleeved outside the first telescopic member 32. In another embodiment, the first telescopic member 32 can also be sleeved outside the second telescopic member 33, which can also achieve the effect of relative sliding between the two.

[0065] Specifically, see Figures 15 to 17 When the second telescopic member 33 and the base 10 are installed, a mounting ear 333 is provided on the second telescopic member 33, and the mounting ear 333 is connected to the base 10. For example, the mounting ear 333 and the base 10 can be connected by bolts, so as to achieve the fixation of the second telescopic member 33 on the base 10.

[0066] Furthermore, the second telescopic member 33 is provided with a mounting ear 333 connected to the base 10, which can facilitate the independent molding of the base 10, the entire connecting structure 30 and the mouse body 20, and the subsequent installation of the three can facilitate the molding and installation of the entire multi-directional adjustable mouse 100. Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the connection structure 30 can be used as an independent molding body. At the same time, since the connection structure 30 can be independently molded, it is also convenient to be applied to other supporting devices.

[0067] For further information, see Fig.13 and Fig.15 In order to improve the feel of the first telescopic member 32 when it is telescopically sliding relative to the second telescopic member 33, the connecting structure 30 also includes a positioning member 40, which is installed on one of the first telescopic member 32 or the second telescopic member 33 and can contact the other. For example, the positioning member 40 is installed on the first telescopic member 32 and contacts the second telescopic member 33; or is installed on the second telescopic member 33 and contacts the first telescopic member 32 to increase the resistance of the first telescopic member 32 to the movement of the second telescopic member 33. In this way, by setting the positioning member 40, the resistance of the first telescopic member 32 to slide relative to the second telescopic member 33 is increased, and there is a clear feel when manually moving the first telescopic member 32, and the movement feedback between the first telescopic member 32 and the second telescopic member 33 is more obvious. The sliding method of the first telescopic member 32 relative to the second telescopic member 33 is more convenient.

[0068] See also Fig.13 and Fig.15 Specifically, the positioning member 40 of this embodiment is annular and is installed on the first telescopic member 32. An annular groove 321 is formed on the outer surface of the first telescopic member 32. After the first telescopic member 32 is embedded in the annular groove 321, the positioning member 40 can be easily installed on the first telescopic member 32, and the installation of the positioning member 40 can be limited. The installation method is simple, and the processing and assembly costs are lower. At the same time, by setting the annular groove 321, it is avoided that the first telescopic member 32 and the second telescopic member 33 will cause the positioning member 40 to move after a long period of relative sliding.

[0069] The material of the positioning member 40 is one of plastic, rubber and silicone. In another embodiment, an annular groove can be formed on the inner surface of the second telescopic member 33, and the positioning member 40 is embedded in the annular groove 321, so that the positioning member 40 can be easily installed on the second telescopic member 33.

[0070] See also Fig.12 , Fig.13 as well as Figures 15 to 17In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to prevent the mouse body 20 from being separated during the stretching process relative to the base 10, the connection structure 30 further includes a stopper 50, which is installed on one of the first telescopic member 32 or the second telescopic member 33, and the other is provided with a stopper groove 331, the length direction of the stopper groove 331 is the sliding direction of the first telescopic member 32 relative to the second telescopic member 33, and the stopper 50 and the groove wall clearance of the stopper groove 331 are matched. For example, if the stopper 50 is provided on the first telescopic member 32, then the stopper groove 331 is provided on the second telescopic member 33; A limiting groove 331 is provided, and a limiting member 50 is provided on the second telescopic member 33. In this way, by providing the limiting member 50, when the first telescopic member 32 slides relative to the second telescopic member 33, the limiting member 50 can be restricted to slide between the two ends of the limiting groove 331, that is, slide along the length direction of the limiting groove 331. The extension length of the limiting groove 331 limits the telescopic distance of the first telescopic member 32 relative to the second telescopic member 33. In this way, the length of the mouse body 20 stretched relative to the base 10 is limited, and at the same time, the mouse body 20 is prevented from detaching after being stretched relative to the base 10.

[0071] See also Fig.12 as well as Figures 15 to 17 In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to avoid disorderly wiring, the ball head 31 is provided with a first through hole 311, and the first telescopic member 32 is provided with a second through hole 322 along the axial direction. The first through hole 311 and the second through hole 322 are connected, and the first through hole 311 and the second through hole 322 are used for the wiring harness 200 to pass through. In this way, when the main control circuit board in the base 10 needs to be connected to the electronic components in the mouse body 20, the wiring harness 200 connected to the main control circuit board is passed through the second through hole 322 and the first through hole 311 in sequence, and enters the mouse body 20 to be connected to the electronic components in the mouse body 20. Therefore, the arrangement of the first through hole 311 and the second through hole 322 has the following beneficial effects: first, the wire harness 200 can directly pass through the first telescopic member 32 and the ball head 31 to enter the mouse body 20, and the wire harness 200 does not need to bypass the first telescopic member 32, so that the routing path of the wire harness 200 is shorter; secondly, the ball head 31 and the first telescopic member 32 have the function of restraining and fixing the wire harness 200, and there is no need to use other parts to fix the wire harness 200, so the installation of the wire harness 200 is more convenient; furthermore, the wire harness 200 is passed through the first through hole 311 and the second through hole 322, so as to avoid the wire harness 200 being arranged to pass from the outside of the base 10 into the mouse body 20 and to avoid the wire harness 200 appearing in a disorderly manner.

[0072] Furthermore, since the first telescopic member 32 has a length direction, the extension direction of the second through hole 322 is the length direction of the first telescopic member 32. At the same time, the first telescopic member 32 is connected to the ball head 31, and the extension direction of the first through hole 311 set in the ball head 31 is the length direction of the first telescopic member 32, so that the wiring harness 200 can pass through the ball head 31 and avoid interfering with the rotation of the mouse body 20 relative to the ball 63.

[0073] It should be noted that the connection structure 30 of this embodiment also includes a second telescopic member 33, and the second telescopic member 33 is provided with a third through hole 332, that is, the first telescopic member 32 is slidably arranged relative to the hole wall of the third through hole 332, and the wiring harness 200 is inserted into the mouse body 20 from the third through hole 332, the second through hole 322 and the first through hole 311 in turn.

[0074] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 as well as Figures 18 to 20 In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to further increase the comfort of using the mouse, the multi-directionally adjustable mouse 100 further includes a thumb support structure 60, which is detachably connected to the base 10 for supporting the thumb. Thus, when the mouse body 20 is adjusted relative to the base 10 to be in a tilted state, for example, when the upper operating surface 21 is tilted to the right for use with the right hand, or when the upper operating surface 21 is tilted to the left for use with the left hand of the user, the thumb support structure 60 can be installed in the base 10 to support the thumb and prevent the thumb from being suspended in the air. Thus, when the entire mouse is in use, the palm is supported by the mouse body 20, and the thumb support structure 60 supports the thumb, thereby improving the comfort of using the mouse.

[0075] The thumb support structure 60 can be detachably mounted relative to the mouse body 20 by plugging or snapping. For example, a plugging slot 11 is provided in the base 10. When the thumb support structure 60 is needed, the thumb support structure 60 is inserted into the support slot to support the thumb. It can be understood that the base 10 is provided with two plugging slots 11 along the left and right directions. When the mouse body 20 is tilted to the right for use with the right hand, the thumb support structure 60 is inserted into the left plugging slot 11; when the mouse body 20 is tilted to the left for use with the left hand, the thumb support structure 60 is inserted into the left plugging slot 11.

[0076] Specifically, in order to adapt to the mode in which the mouse body 20 can rotate relative to the base 10 for adjustment, the thumb support structure 60 of this embodiment includes a thumb support 61 and a support member 62 when it is set. One end of the support member 62 is detachably connected to the base 10, and the other end of the support member 62 is rotatably set with the thumb support 61. At the same time, the thumb support 61 is provided with a placement groove 611 adapted to the ergonomic shape of the thumb, so that the thumb is placed in the placement groove 611. At the same time, because the thumb support 61 is rotatably set relative to the support member 62, it can also rotate synchronously with the rotation direction of the mouse body 20 relative to the base 10, so as to achieve support for the entire hand together with the mouse body 20.
