[0012] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cover further comprises a cover, the cover portion being covered by the cover, and the cover is made of a non-slip material.

[0013] With this configuration, when the mouse pad notebook is used as a mouse pad, the cover acts as an anti-slip surface for the underside of the mouse pad, improving its usability as a mouse pad.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cover is configured to be replaceable.

[0015] With this configuration, the user of the mouse pad notebook can select a cover according to his / her preference, such as color and texture, and can also replace the cover when the cover's effectiveness as an anti-slip mat for the mouse pad decreases or when the cover simply deteriorates.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cover has a storage portion.

[0017] With this configuration, the user of the mouse pad notebook can store any items used for work, such as writing utensils and tablet touch pens, in the storage area of ​​the cover.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the storage section includes an elastic band and is configured to be attachable to and detachable from the cover by means of the elastic band.

[0019] With this configuration, the user of the mouse pad notebook can use the storage section with the elastic band as a book band as well.

[0020] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the text has a first sheet and a second sheet different from the first sheet, the first sheet being located at a predetermined number of pages when the text is opened from the left, and the second sheet being located at a predetermined number of pages when the text is opened from the right.

[0021] With this configuration, the user can select whether the page opens to the left or right depending on which page they want to use, allowing them to instantly open to the page they want, improving the convenience of the notebook.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the text further includes a third sheet between the first sheet and the second sheet, the third sheet being different from the first sheet and the second sheet, and the first sheet and the second sheet have the same number of pages.

[0023] With this configuration, when a user wishes to use the third page, they can simply open the main text to the middle, and instantly open to the desired page, thereby improving the user-friendliness of the notebook. Effect of the Invention

[0026] The mouse pad notebook according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Note that the embodiment shown below is an example of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the following embodiment. In the following description, the mouse pad notebook according to the embodiment of the present invention is indicated by the symbol X.

[0027] <Embodiment> Fig. 1 shows a mouse pad notebook X in a closed state. Fig. 1(a) is an overall perspective view of the mouse pad notebook X, and Fig. 1(b) is a partially enlarged view of the part surrounded by the dashed line in Fig. 1(a). Note that the wavy line indicates the omission of the drawing.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 1, the mouse pad notebook X comprises a main body 1, a cover portion 2 that encases the main body 1, and a cover 3 that covers the cover portion 2.

[0029] The main text 1 has a stack of multiple sheets of paper, which are arranged in the order of first sheet 11, third sheet 13, and second sheet 12 from the front in the figure. The first sheet 11 is arranged at a predetermined number of pages when the main text 1 is opened from the left, and the second sheet 12 is arranged at a predetermined number of pages when the main text 1 is opened from the right.

[0030] This arrangement of the paper allows the user to select left or right opening depending on which page they want to use, allowing them to instantly open to the page they want, improving the convenience of Mouse Pad Notebook X.

[0031] Further, a third sheet 13 is disposed in the middle of the body 1 between the first sheet 11 and the second sheet 12, and the first sheet 11 and the second sheet 12 have the same number of pages.

[0032] With this arrangement of the paper materials, when it is desired to use the third paper 13, the user can open the main text 1 to the middle and instantly open it to the desired page, thereby improving the convenience of the mouse pad notebook X.

[0033] First paper 11, second paper 12, and third paper 13 may be ruled notebook paper, graph paper, calendar, to-do list, memo paper, diary paper, or any other paper or a combination of the paper surfaces of each paper.

[0034] For example, in this embodiment, the first sheet 11 is lined notebook paper (Figure 4), the second sheet 12 is graph paper (Figure 5), and the third sheet 13 is paper that combines a calendar, a to-do list, and notes (Figure 6) or paper that includes a diary page (Figure 7).

[0035] The cover 3 is made of a non-slip material and covers the cover portion 2. As a result, when the mouse pad notebook X is used as a mouse pad, the cover 3 acts as a non-slip surface for the rear surface of the mouse pad, improving the convenience of the mouse pad notebook X.

[0036] As the non-slip material forming the cover 3, synthetic leather with a grip function is preferably used, but any other material with a high friction coefficient (rubber, etc.) may also be used.

[0037] The cover 3 can be detachably attached to the cover portion 2 in the manner of a so-called book cover, that is, it is configured to be replaceable with another similar cover.

[0038] The cover 3 also has an openable and closable storage section 31. The storage section 31 is provided with an elastic band B so that the storage section 31 can be attached to and detached from the cover 3.

[0039] The storage section 31 thus configured can be used like a so-called bookband pen case, improving the convenience of the mouse pad notebook X.

[0040] Fig. 2 shows the mouse pad notebook X in an open state. Fig. 2(a) is an overall perspective view of the mouse pad notebook X, and Fig. 2(b) is a partially enlarged bottom view of the part surrounded by the dashed line in Fig. 2(a). Note that the wavy line indicates the omission of a drawing.

[0041] As shown in FIG. 2, the main text 1 can be opened horizontally 180 degrees, even to the spine, and the surface of the main text 1 opened horizontally can be used as a mouse pad.

[0042] At this time, cover 3 made of a non-slip material covers and underlays front surface 2, so cover 3 acts as a non-slip surface for the rear surface of the mouse pad.

[0043] A notebook having such a structure of the main text 1 and cover 2 that can be opened horizontally 180 degrees can be bound using the technology described in Japanese Patent No. 5743362, for example.

[0044] According to the technology described in Patent Publication No. 5743362, the main text 1 and the cover portion 2 are adhered by an adhesive layer 4, and the adhesive layer 4 can be bound so as to have a first adhesive layer and a second adhesive layer (not shown) which have different adhesives.

[0045] In this case, by using a first adhesive having a relatively low viscosity compared to the second adhesive in the first adhesive layer, the flexibility and elasticity of the adhesive layer 4 can be increased, thereby improving the freedom of movement of each paper material.

[0046] For example, with this adhesive structure, when the main text 1 is opened to any page, the spine of the cover portion 2 is forcibly bent and each paper material tends to open 180 degrees relative to each other, so that the main text 1 can be opened horizontally 180 degrees even to its spine portion.

[0047] That is, unlike ordinary planners or notebooks, the Mouse Pad Diary X does not have any raised areas near the spine of each sheet of paper due to adhesion or the like even when opened horizontally, and does not impede smooth mouse movement, making it highly convenient as a mouse pad.

[0048] <Usage example> As shown in Figure 3, the Mouse Pad Notebook X combines the functions of a notebook and a mouse pad, so you can comfortably work on your computer and take notes even on a small desk, such as in a cafe.

[0049] Therefore, the Mouse Pad Notebook X is a convenient item for anyone, but it is especially ideal for so-called nomadic workers who work in limited spaces when they are on the go, such as in cafes.

[0050] <Effects> The mouse pad notebook X has a structure in which the main text 1 can be opened horizontally 180 degrees up to the spine, and the page surface of the main text 1 opened horizontally can be used as a mouse pad, so that the notebook X can be conveniently used as a mouse pad while ensuring the convenience of carrying it around as a notebook.

[0051] In addition, since the cover portion 2 is covered with the cover 3 made of a non-slip material, when the mouse pad notebook X is used as a mouse pad, the cover 3 acts as a non-slip surface for the rear surface of the mouse pad, improving the convenience of the mouse pad as a mouse pad.

[0052] Furthermore, because the cover 3 is configured to be replaceable, the user of the Mouse Pad Notebook X can select the cover 3 according to his or her preference, such as color or texture, and can also replace the cover 3 when the anti-slip effect decreases or it simply deteriorates.

[0053] Furthermore, since the cover 3 has the storage section 31, the user of the mouse pad notebook X can store in the storage section 31 any items used for work, such as writing implements, a touch pen for a tablet, etc.

[0054] In addition, the storage section 31 is provided with an elastic band B that allows it to be attached and detached from the cover 3, so that the user of the mouse pad notebook X can use the storage section 31 with the elastic band B attached as a book band.

[0055] In addition, in the main text 1, the first paper 11 is located at a predetermined number of pages when the main text 1 is opened from the left, and the second paper 12 is located at a predetermined number of pages when the main text 1 is opened from the right, so that the user can instantly open the desired page by selecting left-opening or right-opening.

[0056] Furthermore, since the main text 1 further includes a third sheet 13 between the first sheet 11 and the second sheet 12, and the first sheet 11 and the second sheet 12 have the same number of pages, the user can open the main text 1 to the middle and instantly open to the third sheet 13.

[0057] The configurations and functions shown in the above embodiments are merely examples and can be modified in various ways based on design requirements, etc. [Explanation of symbols]
