[0026] One or more examples of the utility model are shown in the attached drawings. The detailed description uses numbers and letters to refer to the features in the drawings. Similar or similar marks in the drawings and descriptions have been used to refer to similar or similar parts of the utility model. As used herein, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used interchangeably to distinguish one component from another, and are not intended to indicate the position or importance of individual components.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, according to an embodiment of the utility model, a mouse pen is provided, comprising a shell 1, a pen core 2 inserted into the lower end of the shell 1, a control circuit component arranged inside the shell 1, an optical IC module 3 and a power supply 8, and the optical IC module 3, the power supply 8 and the control circuit component are electrically connected.

[0028] The housing 1 includes a first housing 11 and a second housing 12 that are interlocked and connected, and a pen tip 13 that is fixedly connected to the bottom ends of the first housing 11 and the second housing 12. The pen core 2 and the optical IC module 3 are respectively installed inside the housing 1. One end of the pen core 2 extends out of the pen tip 13, and the other end of the pen core 2 is fixedly connected to a first switch 21. When the pen core 2 is pressed, the first switch 21 is triggered to form a single-click button, which has the same function as the single-click button of an ordinary mouse. An opening 131 is provided downward at the bottom of the pen tip 13 corresponding to the position of the optical IC module 3. The optical IC module 3 includes an integrated transceiver chip of an infrared transmitter and an image receiver. The light emitted by the infrared transmitter can pass through the opening 131 and irradiate the sliding surface of the mouse pen. The generated image is then received by the image receiver, thereby obtaining the mouse movement trajectory. It adopts an integrated optical IC module 3 for transmitting and receiving, and an integrated optical imaging IC. It does not require an external light source or lens, and can effectively eliminate the problem of the uniqueness of the optical path among the three, and enhance the imaging angle adaptation range. At the same time, the accessories are highly integrated, and the pen tip is designed to be smaller, equivalent to the size of an ordinary pen tip, making the calligraphy and painting feel realistic.

[0029] The image receiver has a certain viewing angle range, which does not exceed 180°, and the light emitted by the infrared transmitter can be received as long as it is within the visible range of the receiver. The larger the size of the opening 131 set at the bottom of the pen head 13, the larger the actual viewing angle range of the image receiver.

[0030] In order to facilitate users with different pen-holding habits to use the mouse pen conveniently, the angle α between the receiving plane of the optical IC module 3 in the mouse pen and the central axis of the pen core 2 is set between 105°-120°, and the distance H between the receiving plane of the optical IC module 3 and the sliding plane of the pen tip is set between 8mm-17mm when the two are parallel. At this time, when the angle β between the central axis of the pen core 2 and the sliding plane of the pen tip is between 45°-90°, the mouse pen can be used normally. Correspondingly, the size of the opening 131 is designed according to the size of the mouse pen housing 1. Corresponding to the above-mentioned settings of α, β and H, the size of the opening 131 should not be less than (3.3±0.2mm)*(3.5±0.2mm).

[0031] In some embodiments, in this embodiment, the angle α between the receiving plane of the optical IC module 3 and the central axis of the pen core 2 is 113°, and when the receiving plane of the optical IC module 3 is parallel to the sliding plane of the pen tip, the distance H between the two is set to 15.8mm, and the size of the opening 131 is 3.3mm*3.5mm. At this time, when the angle β between the central axis of the pen core 2 and the sliding plane of the pen tip is between 45°-90°, the mouse pen can be used normally, which is suitable for the usage habits of most users.

[0032] In some embodiments, an optical path channel 132 is provided at the bottom of the shell 1, and the first end of the optical path channel 132 is close to the opening 131, and the light emitted and received by the optical IC module 3 can pass through the optical path channel 132. After the optical path channel 132 is set, it is convenient for the optical IC module 3 to receive light, thereby improving the control accuracy of the mouse pen.

[0033] The opening area of ​​the first end of the optical path channel 132 is not less than the area of ​​the opening 131; the opening area of ​​the second end of the optical path channel 132 is larger than the opening area of ​​the first end of the optical path channel 132; the second end of the optical path channel 132 is set as a bevel, and the front end of the bevel is close to the axis of the shell 1.

[0034] The control circuit assembly includes a first circuit board 9, a second circuit board 10, a button group arranged on the side wall of the housing 1, and a power switch 7. The first circuit board 9, the second circuit board 10, the button group, the power switch 7, and the power supply 8 are electrically connected. The button group includes a double-click button 4, a scroll wheel button 5, a DPI button 6, and a single-click button composed of a refill 2 and a first switch 21. The double-click button 4 includes a second switch 41 arranged inside the housing 1. When the double-click button 4 is pressed, the second switch 41 can be triggered; the scroll wheel button 5 includes a third switch 51 arranged inside the housing 1, and the DPI button 6 includes a fourth switch 61 and an indicator light 62 arranged inside the housing 1. The first switch 21, the second switch 41, the third switch 51, the fourth switch 61, and the indicator light 62 are electrically connected to the first circuit board 9, respectively. A charging interface 101 is arranged on the side wall of the housing 1. The charging interface 101 is electrically connected to the second circuit board 10 and is used to connect an external charger to charge the power supply 8.

[0035] The DPI key 6 has three levels for adjusting the cursor movement speed. The indicator light 62 displays the current DPI status through different color settings. At the same time, the indicator light 62 also has a power level indication function.

[0036] In some embodiments, the pen core 2 is a ballpoint pen core or a water-based pen core, which can be disassembled and replaced, and can be used as a ballpoint pen or a water-based pen when the mouse pen function is not in use.

[0037] The mouse pen of the utility model is used by long pressing the power switch 7 to turn on the pen, then holding the mouse pen in the posture of holding an ordinary pen, moving the pen head 13 to realize the movement of the mouse cursor, and when the mouse needs to be clicked, the pen core 2 is used to touch the sliding plane, and the other end of the pen core 2 touches the first switch 21 to realize the single-click function of the mouse. The double-click key 4, the scroll wheel key 5, and the DPI key 6 have the same functions as the double-click key and the scroll wheel key of an ordinary mouse, and the difference is that the above-mentioned keys are arranged on the side wall of the housing 1 for the convenience of the user to hold and use.

[0038] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the utility model achieve the following technical effects:

[0039] 1. The mouse pen can be used within the angle range of (45°-90°), which is suitable for most users' pen holding habits.

[0040] 2. With an integrated optical IC module for transmitting and receiving, the pen body has a more compact structure and is easier for users to hold.

[0041] 3. The pen refill can be replaced with an oil-based pen refill or a water-based pen refill. When the mouse pen function is not in use, it can be used as a ballpoint pen or a water-based pen.

[0042] Compared with the prior art, the mouse pen of the utility model can adapt to the pen-holding habits of most users, the pen body structure is more compact, easy to hold, and the pen core can be replaced, which brings convenience to the user's work and study.

[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model.
