[0033] In this embodiment of the invention, the side cover 20 is installed in a detachable manner, which has the following advantages:

[0034] First, users can choose a suitable side cover 20 to replace according to their own usage scenarios or personal preferences to meet personalized needs. By replacing the side cover 20, the mouse can adapt to different desktop environments or themes, enhancing the overall aesthetics.

[0035] Second, the side cover 20 is positioned once by magnetic attraction, which can quickly position the side cover 20 in the installation position; then the positioning component 22 and the auxiliary positioning structure 12 cooperate to position the side cover 20 a second time, further improving the support performance of the side cover 20 and making the fingers effectively supported.

[0036] Third, the removable side cover 20 makes cleaning and maintenance more convenient. Users can easily remove the side cover 20 for deep cleaning, extending the life of the mouse. If the side cover 20 is damaged or worn, users can replace the side cover 20 separately without replacing the entire mouse, saving costs.

[0037] Fourth, the different shapes of the side covers 20 can better adapt to the hand shape and grip habits of different users, improving the comfort of use; by choosing the most suitable side cover 20, hand fatigue during long-term mouse use can be reduced, and work efficiency can be improved.

[0038] Fifth, it adapts to rapid upgrades of subsequent products.

The design of the detachable side cover 20 increases the interactivity between the user and the product, and users can replace the side cover 20 at any time to keep things fresh.

[0039] In this embodiment of the invention, the side of the mouse body 10 is recessed inward to form a groove 13 for accommodating the second magnetic component 21. The first magnetic component 11 is installed inside the mouse body 10 and positioned close to the groove 13. Specifically, the groove 13 extends longitudinally, increasing its depth. This structure facilitates the insertion of the second magnetic component 21 from top to bottom into the groove 13, improving the ease of installation of the side cover 20. After the second magnetic component 21 is inserted into the groove 13, the first magnetic component 11 attracts it, causing the second magnetic component 21 to adhere tightly to the side of the groove 13.

[0040] In this embodiment of the invention, the side cover 20 is provided with an annular positioning part 23 on the side near the mouse body 10. The middle part of the annular positioning part 23 is connected to the second magnetic element 21, and the annular positioning part 23 is arranged around the second magnetic element 21. After the second magnetic element 21 is inserted into the slot 13, the outer periphery of the annular positioning part 23 abuts against the longitudinal inner side surface of the slot 13, restricting the lateral freedom of the side cover 20 and ensuring that the side cover 20 will not wobble in the horizontal direction after installation, thereby improving the lateral stability of the side cover 20.

[0041] In this embodiment of the invention, the positioning component 22 includes a cross-shaped positioning post. The cross-shaped positioning post is located on the side of the side cover 20 near the mouse body 10. It consists of two intersecting straight bars with an included angle of 90 degrees. The cross-shaped positioning post exhibits high rigidity and stability under load, thus enhancing the stability of the side panel under stress. The auxiliary positioning structure 12 includes a positioning groove. The positioning groove engages with the cross-shaped positioning post. After the cross-shaped positioning post is inserted into the positioning groove, the upper and lower inner sides of the positioning groove abut against the upper and lower ends of the cross-shaped positioning post, respectively. The positioning groove restricts the longitudinal freedom of the cross-shaped positioning post, preventing vertical wobbling of the side panel after installation, thereby improving its longitudinal stability. Simultaneously, the left and right inner sides of the positioning groove abut against the left and right ends of the cross-shaped positioning post, respectively. The positioning groove also restricts the lateral freedom of the cross-shaped positioning post, further improving the lateral stability of the side panel.

[0042] In this embodiment of the invention, the left and right sides of the mouse body 10 are each provided with a first magnetic element 11 and an auxiliary positioning structure 12; the side cover 20 includes a left cover and a right cover; the left cover and the right cover are respectively located on opposite sides of the mouse body 10. The left cover and the right cover are connected in a detachable manner, and the left cover and the right cover can be replaced simultaneously according to user needs, allowing for the selection and installation of left and right covers with suitable shapes, thus providing more configuration options.

[0043] In this embodiment of the invention, two first magnetic elements 11 are provided, one near the front end of the mouse body 10 and the other near the rear end. This means that two first magnetic elements 11 are provided on the left and / or right sides of the mouse body 10, positioned one in front of the other. Two second magnetic elements 21 are provided and each is adapted to one of the two first magnetic elements 11. This means that two second magnetic elements 21 are provided on the side cover 20, respectively located at the front and rear ends. When the side cover 20 is installed onto the mouse body 10, the second magnetic element 21 at the front end of the side cover 20 attracts the first magnetic element 11 at the front end of the mouse body 10, and the second magnetic element 21 at the rear end of the side cover 20 attracts the first magnetic element 11 at the rear end of the mouse body 10. This makes the front and rear ends of the side cover 20 more stable after installation, further increasing the support performance of the side cover 20.

[0044] Specifically, there are two positioning slots: one at the front end of the mouse body 10 and the other at the rear end. The front slot 13 and the front positioning slot are adjacent to each other, and the rear slot 13 and the rear positioning slot are adjacent to each other.

[0045] In this embodiment of the invention, the side cover 20 includes multiple shells that can be interchangeably mounted on the mouse body 10; each shell has a different protruding structure on its outer side (not shown). By selecting different shaped side covers 20, a combination of the mouse's ergonomic grip and the ergonomic right-handed grip can be achieved.
