Title:
COMPUTER MOUSE INTEGRATED WITH MASSAGER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2013/058266
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
[Problem] Because a conventional computer mouse integrated with a massager has a massaging vibrator disposed on a top surface of a mouse body, when that area is used to massage a body part other than the palm of a hand, a mouse bottom surface section or end section must be held with a hand, causing an operational problem. [Solution] An optical computer mouse integrated with a massager is configured such that a bottom surface section of the optical computer mouse is formed into a curved recessed shape on a body side, a massaging vibrator is disposed in the curved recessed shaped area in a protruding manner, and either of the operational switches of the computer mouse are switched-over via a selection switch to a power on/off switch for the massaging vibrator and a vibration pattern change switch. This configuration allows a user to grasp the computer mouse with the palm of a hand and bring the curved recessed shaped area of the computer mouse into close contact with a substantially protruding body area in order to perform massaging.
