The invention relates to a device manipulators of the type of computer mouse that is used to interact with the interface of the computers category G 06 F 3/033 IPC 7. The invention is intended to reduce the fatigue of the hands and fingers of the operator when working with a computer mouse.

Known analog of the claimed invention, representing a mouse pad under the toes, which supports the fingers over the buttons, providing relaxation in a calm state. Title of invention "FATIGUE PREVENTING TOOL FOR MOUSE, AND MOUSE", patent number JP 2004078346, date of publication, 2004-03-11, author TAKASHI SATO.

The main cause of fatigue specified in this invention (and in the opinion of the applicant, is the inability of the relaxation of the fingers located on a computer mouse without fear of unintentional false button is pressed. In the prototype, this problem is solved using the pads on the mouse, which supports the fingers over the buttons and allows relaxation of the brush. The disadvantage of this is similar increase in the bulkiness of the computer mouse, equipped with plates, the disadvantage of using these pads attached to the fingers.

Therefore, the problem to be solved in the invention is a device of a computer mouse, providing the most relaxed position of the hands and fingers of the operator is when working with a computer mouse without complicating the shape of the mouse.

Achievable technical result is the device of a computer mouse, allowing relaxation of the hand and fingers located on a computer mouse, without fear of false positives pressing the mouse button in the case of muscles, including the movement of the computer mouse.

The claimed technical result is achieved in that the control buttons of the computer mouse have sensors that measure the characteristics of pressing the button. The sensors can measure the characteristics of the pressure on the surface of the buttons and features of the turn button under the tap. For pressure it can be: the pressure derivative of any order of pressure depending on the time rate of change of pressure, speed etc). For the characteristics of the turn-buttons when pressing this may be the amplitude of the pressure, velocities, a derivative of any order of the turn buttons depending on time. Each button is interpreted electronic computing machine as false or conscious control command in dependence on the measured characteristics of depression. That is, when the values of the analyzed characteristics clicking exceeds a threshold, the press is interpreted as a management team. In other cases, the button is interpreted as false nagetiere there is a certain order of priority, the analysis of the characteristics to interpret pressing. For example, pressing interpreted as a control command, when, first, by priority, the rate of increase of pressure is pressed exceeds a threshold pressure, when, secondly, by priority, speed buttons under the press exceeds the threshold value for speed, when, thirdly, by priority, the amplitude of the press exceeds the threshold value for the amplitude.

While the threshold value characteristics of the press and the order of priority for their interpretation are changeable and can programmatically be regulated by the electronic computing machine (computer). For example, you can set the speed button, in which the computer must interpret the press as a management team - the more the speed, the less random "slow" clicks due to relaxation of the brush will be recognized by the management team, but it may be difficult to control a computer mouse. This regulation is done by customizing the program control mouse (driver) operator. Implementation option is the device buttons of the computer mouse, where only the result of clicking the button is the information about the characteristics of pressing the sensor button is transmitted to the electronic computer for their interpretation (as is sending commands or false hits).

Also, the button can be equipped with a device that outputs a signal in response to a button (instead of using the circuit to indicate "click" button). This signal is the result of clicking the button is processed electronic computing machine (computer) and is interpreted as a control command or accidental false pressing. Moreover, the signal depends on the characteristics clicking on the respective sensors button. That is, the signal of the press is thrown when a value of the analyzed characteristics of pressing the preset threshold value. For example, when, first, by priority, the rate of increase of pressure is pressed exceeds a threshold pressure, when, secondly, by priority, speed buttons under the press exceeds the threshold value for speed, when, thirdly, by priority, the amplitude of the press exceeds the threshold value for the amplitude. When this threshold characteristics is pressed to signal can be adjusted. To do this, a computer mouse includes a block, the regulatory threshold characteristics of the press and the order of priority for the device generating the signal of depression. This control unit can be controlled by electronic computers.

In order to result with the body of the button to "click" a button finger of the operator felt the characteristic click (abrupt change in the resistance of the turn button), button computer mouse contain the element influencing the resistance of the turn button pressing. In this case, resistance of the turn button manageable changes. For example, this can be done by commands from computers or through additional control unit of the computer mouse. This unit receives information about the characteristics clicking on the respective sensors and changes the resistance of the turn buttons depending on their values. For example, when the rate of growth pressure, speed buttons, the amplitude of pressing the preset for the control unit thresholds. This block may be adjustable parameters response value characteristics clicking to change the resistance to pressing. Management can be done through computers. Be regulated, for example, the magnitude of the threshold characteristics of the press at which the resistance of the pressing abruptly decreases, resulting in positive "click" on the button.

In that case, if the fingers are relaxed, then during the working movement of the computer mouse, there are occasional false pressing buttons. Therefore, it is necessary to get rid of these false clicks. To do this, a computer mouse includes a device that blocks the pressing or by pressing the button (the example the signal on the press) when moving a computer mouse. Moreover, the information about the movement of the computer mouse can get to the blocking device from the computing machine and handling device movement in the computer mouse. The threshold speed of the mouse movement, which blocks the press or the delivery of the signal, can be adjusted with the aid of electronic computers. Similarly, interpretation of electronic computing machine by pressing both control command may be blocked when moving a computer mouse or when the speed of the mouse movement exceeds the specified programmatically threshold.

As an example implementation of a device button sensor characteristics clicking represent the induction coil with a magnetic core. When you click magnetic core moves relative to the induction coil. This creates EMF Dependence of force EMF with time and the magnitude of the EMF is directly proportional to the change in velocity/velocity and can be used to measure characteristics of depression. Also induction coil/core can be used as an integral part of the element with a controlled resistance turn. In order to change the resistance of the button is pressed, the coil current being applied. The resulting force between the coil and ser what ecnica pulls or pushes connected with them button that changes the resistance of turn.

Computer mouse works as follows. Pressing the button sensors characteristics clicking (rate of change of pressure, velocity, growth velocity, amplitude clicking etc) provide information on the relevant characteristics. Depending on this information, any button can be defined as false, caused by relaxation, or as a management team. That is, pressing the mouse button due to muscle relaxation brush or fingers is much slower than pressing the mouse button to execute the command (cliques). Therefore, when the relaxation of the hands, the fingers press the button, but the trigger is not pressed. When conscious clicking on the button to perform a click rate button above and this is the trigger button is pressed. The threshold of response speed or amplitude characteristics of pressing can be adjusted via the electronic computer through a specialized computer program. When determining the electronic computing machine (computer) state the button is pressed, the resistance of the turn button under the pressing decreases, which leads to the feeling of the trigger button, convenient for the operator ("clicked"). the data of the resistance change button under your finger due to the use in the composition of the button element with a variable resistance touch which is the command from a computer that interprets the button as false or true. When moving a computer mouse (especially at sharp movements) possible involuntary false button is pressed. In this case, the lock clicking or by pressing the buttons (i.e. the interpretation of pressing the electronic computing machine) at the time of movement of the mouse, for example, when the speed of the mouse movement exceeds a specified threshold value, for example, using the computer through software control movement of the mouse.
