Spheric manipulator. RU patent 2257607.

FIELD: computer science.

SUBSTANCE: lower element of support of leading ball is made in form of flat link of two roller bearings, rotation axes of which are perpendicular and do not intersect, while roller bearing, axis of which is vertical, rotates either inside bushing, held in body of spherical manipulator, or on axis, held in body of spherical manipulator. Smoothness and speed of rotation of leading ball do not depend on its rotation direction and height of device is considerably lowered without decrease of leading ball diameter.

EFFECT: lesser dimensions, higher comfort of use.

Optical system of optical mouse / 2260203
Mutual position in light guide of input lens surface, mirror and output surfaces, and also light guide and objective-lent, is made such, that angle between lighting beams and subject surface is not less than 20°, and also input lens surface is made such, that lighting beam inside light guides is made dissipating, providing close to parallel output lighting beam with high density of light energy.

Computer remote control device for handicapped person / 2269325
Device can be used by people with paralyzed upper and lower extremities. Device has power unit electrically connected with coordinate aid, signal processing unit and transmitter with aerial. Coordinate aid has non-conductive rectangular plate, carriage being movable relatively longitudinal axis of plate, paired contact and control key fixed rigidly onto paired contact. The contact is electrically connected with signal processing unit; it is mounted onto carriage for movement of paired contact along carriage. Device is placed inside mouth cavity of a person in such a way that is turned with its control key to end of tongue. Surface of control key has relief. Surface of plate has two resistive fields. Any field is separated to equal parts by electro-conductive strip. First resistive field has at its edges electro-conductive vertical contact areas. Second resistive field has at its ends electro-conductive horizontal contact areas. All contact areas are connected with signal processing unit through conductors. Device is small-sized and convenient at exploitation.

Method for controlling cursor and device for its realization / 2275674
Device has, positioned in body: manipulator, manipulator indicator, containing at least two tension resistors, positioned in resiliently deformed element, while manipulator is made in form of rod, one end of which is held on resiliently deformed element of indicator, and tension resistors are positioned so, that their symmetry axes are inclined relatively to radial direction, routed from rod holding point, to center of tension resistor on angle of tangential inclination. For moving cursor, force is applied to manipulator in direction of desired movement, and for rotation - torque is applied, while speed of cursor rotation is measured by changing value of torque, applied to manipulator.

Cursor control device / 2290683
Cursor control device of "mouse" type, which has a coordinate device of mechanical or optical type mounted inside, is equipped with a coordinate ball, mounted on the outer surface of case cover and connected to position to electrical signal converters or four additional keys, located on the outer surface of case cover next to "mouse" buttons and connected to position to electrical signal converters using two independent informational channels to implement the function of moving the cursor in two coordinates.

Computer spherograph, combined computer control device based on it / 2292072
Device is equipped with a lever with controlling and controlled arms, hanging on a support with the capability of moving controlled arm inside a spatial angle of a fixed spherical surface. Buttons and scroll wheel are located on controlling arm. Controlled arm, as well as the scanned interior spherical surface, is located inside the device.

Computer mouse / 2292579
Buttons of computer mouse have indicators, measuring characteristic of pressure on button, for example, pressure force, characteristics of button drive under click, such as click amplitude and click speed. Each click of button is interpreted by computer as false or as control command depending of click characteristics. To prevent false clicks occurring during movement of computer mouse, click, click result or interpretation of click as control command are blocked.

Device worn on the arm for working with "mouse" type computer manipulator / 2294557
Device contains soft resilient cushion and device for fastening it to arm from back side of wrist and part of forearm, cushion is made with hollow for gaseous or liquid substance under pressure and with injection-controlling-locking valve, and device for fastening the cushion to forearm of arm is made with possible controlling of diameter at given force of arm holding and possible fastening on elbow part of forearm. In particular, fastening device may be located on one side from it, and valve may be built into cushion on the side, facing the body of user upwardly. Device for fastening the cushion to forearm of arm may be made with possible fastening to elbow part of forearm. A thong of adjustable length is provided for longitudinal fastening of the device on wrist.
