Description

The third axis of the mouse with improved structure

The utility model relates to a computer input device, more precisely relates to a third axis of a mouse with an improved structure.

The traditional mouse has only one input device with two-dimensional space coordinates, but no input device with a second two-dimensional space coordinate change, resulting in no change in control and lack of flexibility. Though the mouse that has has the input device that has improved the 3rd axis, owing to adopting the mode that touches up and down, can not do the input of 360 degree motions.

The purpose of this utility model is to design an improved structure of the third axis of the mouse, and provide an input device with two two-dimensional space coordinates and a control scroll by adopting the transmission mode of the combination of the rolling ball mechanism and the mouse, without affecting the original The appearance, structure and functions of the mouse are convenient for the operator to perform simple operations. Its input action is no longer the previous single action up and down contact method, but can be used for 360-degree action input in an ergonomic condition, making the operation more comfortable .

The purpose of this utility model is achieved in that the mouse third axis of the improved structure comprises a rolling ball mechanism, and is characterized in that: it also includes an elastic element fixing seat, a pair of guide rails and more than one pair that are relatively arranged around the elastic element fixing seat. Middle button switch; the elastic element fixing seat is composed of a shaft column and a spring sleeved on the shaft column; the rolling ball mechanism is pivotally arranged in the guide rail, and the rolling ball mechanism includes a ball seat, a rolling ball, and an X-axis aperture wheel, Y-axis aperture wheel, and a light-emitting element composed of a light-emitting element and a light-receiving element; the bottom surface of the ball seat overlaps the spring, the rolling ball is pivotally connected to the ball seat, and the X The Y-axis aperture wheels are respectively pivotally connected to the two sides of the ball seat and roll and slide with the rolling ball. The said X-axis and Y-axis aperture wheels are provided with light-transmitting holes at equal intervals on the rings. The light-emitting element and the light-receiving element are They are respectively arranged on both sides of the aperture wheel, and a third button arm is extended from one end of the ball seat, which is opposite to the middle button switch.

An accommodating groove is recessed on the ball seat, and the rolling ball is pivotally arranged in the accommodating groove.

The utility model realizes the transmission mode combining the rolling ball mechanism and the mouse by installing the rolling ball mechanism on the base of the mouse; when the rolling ball slides, the aperture wheel rotates synchronously, and the circuit control unit of the mouse can receive Outgoing receiving signal; when the roller is pressed down, the ball seat moves downward, and the third button guide arm presses the middle button switch, and the circuit control unit of the mouse is based on the receiving signal of the light receiving element of the rolling ball mechanism and whether the middle button switch is active or not. The signal activated by pressing achieves the purpose of manipulating the change of the coordinates in the second two-dimensional space and the movement of the reel.

Referring to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 together with Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, the third axis of the mouse with the improved structure mainly includes the rolling ball mechanism 2 combined with the mouse 1.

The mouse 1 is a device with two-dimensional spatial changes, including a base 11 , a trackball mechanism 12 composed of component units such as a trackball and an aperture wheel, a circuit board 13 and an upper cover 14 . A shaft column 15 is fixedly arranged on the base 11, and an elastic element 16 such as a spring is sleeved on the shaft column 15, and several (two in this embodiment) guide rails are correspondingly arranged on the base 11 around the shaft column 15 17. The circuit board 13 is provided with a circuit control unit 131, a left key switch 132, a right key switch 134, a middle key switch 133 and four pairs of light emitting elements 135, 136 composed of a light emitting element and a light receiving element respectively, wherein two pairs of light emitting elements 135 , 136 cooperate with the action of the trackball mechanism 12 to be used as cursor input, and the other two pairs of light-emitting elements 135, 136 are used with the action of the rolling ball mechanism 2. The light emitting elements 135 , 136 and the switches 132 - 134 are electrically connected to the circuit control unit 131 respectively.

The ball rolling mechanism 2 is pivotally arranged in the guide rail 17. The ball rolling mechanism 2 is provided with a ball seat 21. The bottom surface of the ball seat 21 overlaps with the elastic element 16. The ball seat 21 is concavely provided with a receiving groove 22 for rolling balls. 23 is pivotally arranged therein, and the top of the rolling ball 23 protrudes out of the slot 141 of the upper cover 14 . The two sides adjacent to the rolling ball 23 are respectively provided with pivots 24, 24', one end of the pivot 24 is connected with the X-axis aperture wheel 25, one end of the pivot 24' is connected with the Y-axis aperture wheel 26, and the two aperture wheels 25 , 26 are fixed on the rotating shafts 24, 24' through the central axis hole and rotate together, and they are rotated by the rolling ball 23. Since the mandrels of the aperture wheels 25 and 26 extend toward the rolling ball 23 and form rolling friction with the rolling ball 23, the rolling ball 23 drives the aperture wheels 25 and 26 to rotate accordingly. Light-transmitting holes 251 and 261 are arranged at equal intervals on each aperture wheel 25 and 26 , and directly below the light-transmitting holes 251 and 261 are just opposite to the light-emitting elements 135 and 136 .

When the ball seat 21 is pressed down to generate a displacement, the relative position of the diaphragm of the aperture wheel will not be changed to generate unnecessary displacement. A side end of the ball seat 21 is extended with a third button guide arm 27, and when the guide arm 27 is pressed down, the middle key switch 133 can be activated, as shown in Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 .

When the rolling ball 23 slides, the aperture wheels 25 and 26 will rotate synchronously, and the circuit control unit 131 controls the second two-dimensional space coordinate to change according to the signal received by the receiving element. If the ball seat 21 moves downward in the radial direction, the guide arm 27 presses down to activate the middle key switch 133 , as shown in FIG. 4 . At this time, the circuit control unit will execute the internal program according to the activated signal of the receiving element and the middle key switch 133, and operate and control the coordinates of the second two-dimensional space to change and control the scroll to move.

In summary, the structure of the utility model does not affect the appearance structure and original functions of the mouse, and is convenient for the operator to use. Through the linkage combination of the mouse and the scrolling mechanism, the up and down contact mode of the single action of the previous input device is changed, which meets the Ergonomic situation, can be used for 360-degree action input, and the operation is more comfortable. The circuit control unit can realize the function of operating and controlling the second two-dimensional space coordinate and the movement of the reel according to the receiving signal of the receiving element and the signal of whether the middle key switch is pressed.
