Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of mouse structure, and particularly to a detachable and replaceable mouse button structure and mouse device. Background Technology

[0002] A mouse is a device that interacts with computer equipment. After a period of use, the button cover will wear and tear and the paint will peel off because the user's fingers will come into contact with it during operation, making the mouse unsightly. Furthermore, the tactile feel of the surface where the fingers touch deteriorates, affecting the user experience. In addition, the buttons and switches of traditional mice are fixed to the circuit board and cannot be removed, providing only one button feel, which cannot satisfy the needs of different users. Replacing the switches on the circuit board requires tools and a certain level of circuit knowledge, making it difficult for ordinary users to quickly and easily replace the buttons to obtain the desired button feel.

[0003] Therefore, in order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, there is a need for a mouse button structure and mouse device that can replace the button cover and the button switch. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a detachable and replaceable mouse button structure and mouse device that allows for the replacement of button covers and button switches.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: the mouse button structure includes a button cap that is connected to the mouse shell, a connecting seat is provided on the mouse shell, the end of the button cap is provided with a connecting part that magnetically engages with the connecting seat, and a limiting block is provided on the button cap that engages with the limiting of the connecting seat.

[0006] As can be seen from the above solution, by setting the connecting base to provide support and limit, and using magnetic attraction to limit the keycaps on the connecting base, the keycaps can be used stably without falling off. At the same time, it enables quick removal and replacement of keycaps, providing users with a more convenient and faster disassembly and replacement experience.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, both the connecting part and the connecting seat are provided with a plurality of magnetic bodies, and the plurality of magnetic bodies on the connecting part and the connecting seat are magnetically attracted to each other.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the connecting seat is provided with an elongated limiting hole, the connecting part is provided with a limiting post that mates with the limiting hole, and the outer edge of the connecting seat is provided with a slot that mates with the limiting block. When the limiting block is in contact with the slot, the limiting post is located at the end of the limiting hole away from the slot.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the connecting seat is provided with at least two of the magnetic bodies, and at least one of the magnetic bodies is provided on each side of the limiting hole.

[0010] A preferred embodiment is that the connector is stepped.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the mouse button structure further includes a button switch and a conductive socket. The conductive socket is disposed on the circuit board of the mouse device, and the conductive socket is provided with a conductive slot electrically connected to the circuit board of the mouse device. The pin of the button switch is connected to the conductive slot, and the button cap is provided with a trigger pressure block that cooperates with the button switch.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the conductive base is provided with at least two sets of conductive slots of different specifications, and the contacts of each set of conductive slots are connected to the circuit board of the mouse device.

[0013] The mouse device includes the detachable and replaceable mouse button structure and the mouse body, wherein the mouse button structure is disposed on the mouse body. Attached Figure Description

[0021] Example 1:

[0022] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the detachable and replaceable mouse button structure includes a button cap 2 that connects to the mouse shell 1. A connecting base 3 is provided on the mouse shell 1. The end of the button cap 2 has a connecting portion 4 that magnetically engages with the connecting base 3. The button cap 2 has two limiting blocks 5 that limit the connection with the connecting base 3. Both the connecting portion 4 and the connecting base 3 have two magnetic bodies 6, which magnetically engage with each other. By using two sets of magnetic bodies 6 to magnetically engage the connecting portion 4 and the connecting base 3, sufficient magnetic force is provided while ensuring convenient installation and low cost. This ensures that the button cap 2 is firmly attached to the mouse device during normal use and will not easily fall off, ensuring a good user experience. The magnetic body 6 is a magnet.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the connecting seat 3 is provided with an elongated limiting hole 7, the connecting part 4 is provided with a limiting post 8 that cooperates with the limiting hole 7, and the outer edge of the connecting seat 3 away from the mouse shell 1 is provided with a corresponding slot 9 that cooperates with the limiting block 5. The two slots 9 are distributed on both sides of the length direction of the limiting hole 7, and the two slots 9 and the limiting hole 7 are triangularly distributed. When the limiting block 5 is in contact with the slot 9, the two sets of magnetic bodies 6 of the connecting part 4 and the connecting seat 3 magnetically attract and limit each other, and the limiting post 8 is located at the end of the limiting hole 7 away from the slot 9. After magnetic positioning, the limiting block 5 is limited by the slot 9. At the same time, since the limiting post 8 is located at the end of the limiting hole 7 away from the slot 9, when the user presses the front end of the keycap 2 to perform a mouse button operation, the keycap 2 deforms with the limiting block 5 as the first fulcrum. At this time, the limiting post 8 and the end of the limiting hole 7 are limited, so that the connecting part 4 always fits against the connecting seat 3 during the mouse button operation. This structure ensures that the keycap 2 will not wobble excessively when the user performs button operation, improving the user experience.

[0024] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, when disassembling the keycap 2, by lifting the front end of the keycap 2, the limiting block 5 moves from bottom to top, thus disengaging from the limiting slot 9. Simultaneously, the limiting post 8 shifts at an angle relative to the limiting hole 7. The elongated shape of the limiting hole 7 provides space for the limiting post 8 to move during disassembly. Then, simply lift the keycap 2 upwards to remove it.

[0025] In this embodiment, the connector 3 is stepped. By adopting a stepped structure, the connector 3 can adapt to the arc-shaped structure of the keycap 2 and the mouse shell 1, and ensure that the limiting block 5, the magnetic body 6 and other structures can be easily installed and maintain the same installation direction, ensuring smooth disassembly and reassembly of the keycap 2.

[0026] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the detachable and replaceable mouse button structure further includes a button switch 10 and a conductive base 11. The conductive base 11 is disposed on the circuit board of the mouse device, and has a conductive slot 12 electrically connected to the circuit board of the mouse device. The pins of the button switch 10 are connected to the conductive slot 12. The button cap 2 is provided with a trigger pressure block 13 that cooperates with the button switch 10. By setting the conductive base 11 as a transition structure, the conductive base 11 conducts electricity and is soldered to the circuit board. The button switch 10 can be selected according to the user's preference for different force, silent, or standard button switches, thereby meeting personal habits. The trigger pressure block 13 on the button cap 2 cooperates with the button of the button switch 10 when the user presses down the button cap 2, causing the button switch 13 to be triggered.

[0027] In this embodiment, the conductive base 11 is provided with a metal conductive piece that mates with the conductive slot 12. The metal conductive piece is provided with at least two pressing pieces that extend into the conductive slot 12. The two pressing pieces mate with the pins of the push button switch 10 to perform pressing, limiting and conducting.

[0028] In this embodiment, the outer edge of the conductive base 11 is provided with a surrounding structure, and the edge of the surrounding structure is chamfered. The surrounding structure limits the position of the button switch 10, ensuring the installation stability of the button switch 10 during use, and the chamfer facilitates guidance during insertion.

[0029] In this embodiment, the conductive base 11 is provided with at least two sets of conductive slots 12 of different specifications, and the contacts of each set of conductive slots 12 are connected to the circuit board of the mouse device. By providing various conductive slots 12 of different specifications on the conductive base 11 and connecting them accordingly, it is possible to adapt to button switches with different pin structures.

[0030] In this embodiment, the mouse device includes a pair of mouse button structures and a mouse body, with the pair of mouse button structures disposed on the mouse body. The mouse body includes a mouse shell 1 and a circuit board. A scroll wheel assembly is also disposed on the mouse shell 1. The circuit board is provided with a sensor that cooperates with the scroll wheel assembly. The pair of mouse button structures are respectively disposed on both sides of the scroll wheel assembly. A controller, a displacement sensor, and a communication module are also disposed on the circuit board. The mouse body also includes a rechargeable battery electrically connected to the circuit board. The mouse shell 1 includes a bottom cover and a top cover connected together. A connecting base 3 is disposed on the top cover, and the top cover is also provided with a port for plugging and unplugging the button switch 10.

[0031] Example 2:

[0032] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that:

[0033] The connecting part 4 and the connecting seat 3 are both made of ferromagnetic material, with a magnetic material 6 on the other. Magnetic attraction is achieved through the interaction of the magnetic material 6 and the ferromagnetic material. The connecting seat 3 has a positioning block, and the connecting part 4 has a positioning groove that mates with the positioning block. This ensures that the keycaps 2 can be quickly aligned and installed even with uniform magnetic attraction, guaranteeing optimal performance.

[0034] Although the embodiments of this utility model are described with reference to actual solutions, they do not constitute a limitation on the meaning of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, modifications to the implementation schemes and combinations with other schemes based on this specification are obvious.
