Mouse scroll device
View Patent ↗An improved mouse scroll device installs a scroll sensing plate integrally coupled and neatly aligned with the main body of a mouse for providing an appropriate position to operate the mouse easily, and the scroll sensing plate is coupled to a microprocessor. After the neatly arranged scroll sensing plate is touched or slid back and forth by fingers or the scroll sensing plate is clicked for several times, a signal is transmitted from the microprocessor to a computer system through a universal serial bus (USB) port or a radio set to control the scroll page function on a screen of a display device or the middle button function to facilitate the operation and provides a protrusion-free artistic look effect as well as reducing the number of components and lowering the cost.
1. A mouse scroll device for a personal computer comprising:
a mouse having:
a) a left button;
b) a right button;
c) a scroll sensing plate sensing touching and a sliding movement applied from an exterior of the mouse and controlling a scroll movement of a screen of a display device of the personal computer;
d) a scroll controller, the scroll sensing plate is coupled to an input end of the scroll controller;
e) a microprocessor;
f) a transmission set, an output end of said microprocessor being coupled to an input end of the transmission set; and
g) a mouse optical sensor, an output end of the scroll controller is coupled to a first input end of the microprocessor and the mouse optical sensor is coupled to a second input end of the microprocessor,
wherein when a user touches the scroll sensing plate by selectively touching and sliding relative the scroll sensing plate, the scroll sensing plate sending a first sensed signal to the microprocessor through the scroll sensor for determination, and the microprocessor outputting a first control signal to the personal computer through the transmission set for controlling the scroll movement of the screen of the display device of the personal computer,
wherein when the user touches the scroll sensing plate by selectively touching the scroll sensing plate a predetermined number of times, the scroll sensing plate sending a second sensed signal to the microprocessor through the scroll sensor for determination, and the microprocessor outputting a second control signal to the personal computer through the transmission set producing a middle button function utilizing the scroll sensing plate.
wherein the scroll sensing plate is located between the left button and the right button.
2. The mouse scroll device according to claim 1 , wherein the scroll sensing plate is integrally coupled with the mouse and disposed on a same plane with a surface of a housing of the mouse.
3. The mouse scroll device according to claim 1 , wherein the transmission set is selected from a group consisting of a universal serial port connected to the computer and a radio set communicating with the computer.
