  • Patent number: 5765795
    Abstract: A reconfigurable computer mouse pad is disclosed as comprising a pair of adhesively attached mouse pad material surfaces having mounted therebetween a plurality of plumber strips, the latter comprising elongated, rectangular strips of metal typically made of an aluminum alloy. The combination of mouse pad surfaces and the plumbers'strips sandwiched between them, results in a novel structure of a readily configurable computer mouse pad apparatus which permits the pad to be bent into virtually any desired configuration, including for example, an arched configuration suitable for being mounted on the arm of a chair or on the thigh of a user. The most significant aspect of the present invention is that it comprises a mouse pad that can be configured into any shape and because of the construction thereof, will retain that shape.
