Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to mouse pads and paper pads, and, more particularly, to mouse pads of the type that provide a surface for frictional or optical contact with a computer mouse, and paper pads that are composed of a stack of repositionable sheets for the reception of hand-written notes or other visual matter.
- 2. The Prior Art
- Mouse pads, per se. are well known computer accessories that provide a surface for frictional or optical contact with a hand-operated computer mouse for interaction with the graphical user interface (GUI) of the computer. Many computer applications enable the entry of keyboard-driven electronic notes for such purposes as reminders, notices, remarks, references, etc. Such electronic notes sometimes either are not permitted or are too unwieldy for use in connection with the particular computer application being run. Small paper pads of pressure sensitive sheets are widely available for use in a myriad of situations in which handwritten notes are convenient to create and to affix at desired locations either permanently or temporarily. Oftentimes, attention is so focused when using a computer, that there may be inherent frustration when shifting attention between: the locations of small objects such as mouse pads and paper pads on the physical desktop (on which the computer rests); and the locations of small icons on the virtual desktop (of the computer screen). Facilitation is to be desired.
- The primary object of the present invention is to provide a handy computer accessory in which a mouse pad and a paper pad are structurally integrated and operationally coordinated. The mouse pad is a planar unit, which generally includes a lower elastomeric foam base and an upper accessible face, and which is cut out within its planar periphery to provide a receptacle in the form of an opening that has a profile of predetermined size and shape. The paper pad is a planar unit, which generally includes a stack of repositionable pressure sensitive sheets, and which has a profile of substantially the same predetermined size and shape as the opening in the mouse pad has. The paper pad is press fitted into the opening in which it is retained snugly. The paper pad and the opening thus are geometrically congruent. In one embodiment, the mouse pad and the paper pad have registered graphics that provide matching indicia or a seamless background design. In another embodiment, the upper accessible face is provided with elongated furrows for the reception and presentation of pens, pencils or crayons. In a further embodiment, the mouse pad is in the form of a desk pad which is sufficiently large to cover a major part of the surface of a conventional desk.
- For a fuller understanding of the nature and objects of the present invention, reference is made to the following specification, which is to be taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
- FIG. 1 is an exploded view in perspective of a paper pad and mouse pad assemblage embodying the present invention;
- FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the assemblage of FIG. 1, taken along the line2-2 of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the assemblage of FIG. 1, taken along the line3-3 of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the paper pad of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a paper pad and mouse pad assemblage having graphics in accordance with the present invention;
- FIG. 6 is a perspective view of another paper pad and mouse pad assemblage having graphics in accordance with the present invention;
- FIG. 7 is a perspective view of a further paper pad and mouse pad assemblage having graphics in accordance with the present invention; and
- FIG. 8 is a perspective view of a paper pad and desk pad assemblage, in which the desk pad provides a surface for coaction with a mouse and is sufficiently large to provide associated furrows for the reception and presentation of writing utensils.
- FIGS.1 to 4 illustrate a preferred embodiment of a computer accessory of the present invention as comprising a handy combination, in which a
mouse pad 20 and apaper pad 22 are structurally integrated and operationally coordinated. -
Mouse pad 20 is a planar or plate-like unit, which generally includes a lowerelastomeric foam base 24 and anupper face 26.Face 26 provides a frictional surface on which amouse 28 is adapted to be moved. In one form,mouse 28 includes a contact ball that rolls in accordance with the movement of the mouse on the mouse pad. In another form,mouse 28 includes an optical detector (not shown) and an optical sight (not shown) for coaction with acontact area 30 on the mouse pad. In either case, movement ofmouse 28 is translated to movement of an arrow or other indicator on the graphic user interface of a computer. - As shown,
mouse pad 20 has acutout 32 for the reception ofpaper pad 22.Paper pad 22 includes a stack ofsheets 34. Cutout 32 constitutes a receptacle that has a planar profile of predetermined size and shape. The paper pad is a planar unit that is provided with a profile of substantially the same predetermined size and shape as does the window in the mouse pad. The paper pad is press fitted into the opening in which it is retained snugly. The paper pad and the opening thus are geometrically congruent. Aweb 36 that spans the back ofcutout 32 limits movement ofpaper pad 22 into the cutout. In one form, the dimensions of this web are only sufficient to overlap the edges of the cutout. In another form, the dimensions of this web are sufficient to provide a backing for the entire mouse pad. - Each of
sheets 34 has a front face that is adapted to receive pencil or pen notations, and a back face that, along at least one of its edges, has aband 38 of coating of repositionable pressure sensitive adhesive. In one form, this repositionable pressure sensitive adhesive is of the type sold under the trade designation, “Post-it” by Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Corporation. An example of this type of adhesive is disclosed in the following patent, which is incorporated herein by reference: U.S. Pat. No. 5,795,636, issued Aug. 18, 1998, in the names of Janet T. Keller, et. al. for “Positionable and Repositionable Adhesive Article”. This patent defines “positionable” as meaning an adhesive or pressure sensitive adhesive that can be placed against a substrate surface and easily slid over the surface into proper position without preadhering or sticking the adhesive article; pressure is generally required to adhere the adhesive article to the substrate”. This patent defines “repositionable” as meaning “an adhesive or pressure sensitive adhesive” being “one that can be applied and adhered to a substrate and then removed and reapplied without distorting, defacing, or destroying the film, adhesive, or substrate”. - In a preferred embodiment, the mouse pad and the paper pad have registered graphics that provide matching indicia. FIG. 5. illustrates the mouse pad as having along an edge of the cutout, a listing42 of string variables, and illustrates each sheet of the paper pad as having a
listing 44 of indicated areas to encourage consistent manual entry of information. FIG. 6 illustrates a decorative motif that blends theupper surfaces indicia 50 on the mouse pad and indicia 52 on each sheet of the paper pad, which indicia are identically matched. - In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, the mouse pad is in the form of a
desk pad 54 that is sufficiently large to cover a substantial part of a conventional desk and to provide a plurality offurrows 56 in the form of elongated narrow troughs for the reception and immediate presentation of a plurality of pens, pencils, crayons or the like. In a further embodiment, the desk pad additionally provides a plurality of cut-outs for the reception of a plurality of pads of repositionable papers. - Operation
- In operation, a computer operator uses
mouse 28 in a conventional manner within bounds that are outside ofcutout 32 andpaper pad 22. When needed, the paper pad is visually and manually accessible. Graphics on the mouse pad and paper pad are functional and/or aesthetic. A used paper pad may be replaced easily by removing any residual backing and pressing a replacement paper pad into the cutout of the mouse pad. Afinger notch 40, which tapers downwardly from the front to the back of the mouse pad and inwardly from the body of the mouse pad toward the cutout and the paper pad, facilitates removal of the sheets of the paper pad, one at a time.
