Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mouse technology, and in particular to a multifunctional wireless mouse knob control device and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] Wireless mice are a common computer accessory. A wireless mouse is a mouse input device that does not require a physical cable connection to the computer. It uses wireless technologies such as Bluetooth, radio frequency (RF) or other wireless technologies to transmit mouse movement and button clicks to the computer, thereby enabling interaction with the computer.

[0003] In the current technology, wireless mice on the market display specific functions and data through indicator lights on the PCB, and implement functions through cumbersome buttons. Existing mice are designed with 12 functions, which requires 12 buttons. It is difficult for users to remember the function of each button. Users need to memorize the function corresponding to each button, which not only increases the burden of memory, but may also lead to misoperation during use. Integrating too many functions in a limited button space may cause conflicts between some functions, or some functions may not be intuitively expressed to the user. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention mainly provides a limiting groove and limiting rod set at the feed inlet and connecting pipe. Unlike the traditional design that requires 12 function keys, this device reduces the number of physical buttons by combining a multimedia knob and a color display screen. Users do not need to remember the specific function of each button, which reduces the memory burden and the possibility of misoperation.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a multifunctional wireless mouse knob control device and its usage method, comprising a wireless mouse shell, a user interface component disposed on the side wall of the wireless mouse shell, a display component disposed on the top of the wireless mouse shell, a power management component disposed inside the wireless mouse shell, and a control component disposed inside the wireless mouse shell. The user interface component converts the user's operation into electrical signals through a microswitch. The control component receives these signals and processes these inputs according to preset logic and firmware programs. The power management component provides power to the mouse. The control component monitors the battery level and reminds the user when the battery is low, while simultaneously controlling the on / off state of the power switch. The control component is configured as a mouse PCBA board.

[0006] Preferably, the user interface components include a left mouse button and a right mouse button connected to the side wall of the wireless mouse housing, a middle scroll wheel button located between the left mouse button and the right mouse button, an M button and a DPI button arranged parallel to the middle scroll wheel button, a copy and paste button arranged on the other side wall of the wireless mouse housing, and a back button and a forward button located below the copy and paste button.
