Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional gaming mice with lighting structures face increased complexity and difficulty in incorporating a movable lighting design, which complicates the layout of circuit components and wires, making it challenging to enhance visual appeal while maintaining ergonomic and stylish aesthetics.
Innovation Solution
A mouse design featuring a movable lighting structure with a bracket member and slide rail assemblies that allow the lighting module to move along a predetermined path, connected to the mouse body via a wire for power and control signals, enabling adjustable positioning and movement while maintaining electrical connectivity.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Illumination intensity
If a lighting structure is added to enhance visual appeal, then the visual effect is improved, but the structural complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The lighting structure is designed to be movable relative to the mouse body through a sliding mechanism. The lighting module can move along a predetermined path between a first position (closer to the grip area) and a second position (farther from the grip area), allowing dynamic adjustment of lighting position to enhance visual effect while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure through standardized mechanical components
2Adaptability or versatility
If a movable lighting structure is implemented, then the adaptability is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The mouse is divided into distinct functional modules: a mouse body, a separate lighting module, and a connecting mechanism. The lighting module can be independently positioned along a sliding path with multiple predetermined positions, allowing flexible configuration without requiring complex integration. This modular segmentation enables adaptability while controlling overall structural complexity
Solution Approach 2:
A sliding mechanism acts as an intermediary between the mouse body and the lighting module, enabling movable connection without direct integration. This intermediary component facilitates the movable relationship while maintaining structural simplicity through standardized mechanical elements
3Ease of operation
If the lighting module is made movable, then the ease of operation is improved, but the reliability decreases
Solution Approach 1:
A flexible wire serves as an intermediary connection between the mouse body and the movable lighting module. This flexible connector maintains electrical connectivity while accommodating the movement of the lighting module along its sliding path, ensuring both ease of operation and reliable power/signal transmission without compromising connection stability

AI summary
A mouse having a movable lighting structure includes a mouse body, the movable lighting structure, a lighting module and a wire. The mouse body has a longitudinal axis defining a longitudinal axis direction, and has a top surface and a bottom surface opposite to each other. The movable lighting structure is movably disposed on the mouse body, and has an accommodating space formed therein. The lighting module is disposed in the accommodating space, and has at least one light-emitting element. The wire is connected between the mouse body and the lighting module for supplying power required by the lighting module.
