Connecting structure of a mouse pad with an armrest
A mouse pad has an iron plate joined thereto while a chair armrest has a magnet joined to an upper portion thereof; the magnet has such a magnetic force on the iron plate as to be capable of preventing the mouse pad from falling off the armrest after the mouse pad is positioned on the armrest, and attracted to the magnet; the mouse pad can be horizontally adjusted in position after it is attracted to the magnet.
1. Field of the invention
The present invention relates to a mouse pad, more particularly one, which is attached to an armrest of a chair by means of magnetic force, and which is easily adjustable in position.
2. Brief Description of the Prior Art
Computer users may rest their elbows on chair armrests while operating mice, which are supported on desks, in case the desks are too small to provide enough space for their hands. And, the computer users can't operate the mice smoothly, and are prone to have sore arms and wrists in case the armrests are not as high as the desks.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONIt is a main object of the present invention to provide a mouse pad, which can be attached to a chair armrest; thus, a computer user can operate a mouse on the mouse pad smoothly while resting the elbow on the armrest.
The mouse pad of the present invention has an iron plate joined thereto while a chair armrest has a magnet joined to an upper portion thereof. The magnet has such a magnetic force on the iron plate as to be capable of preventing the mouse pad from falling off the armrest after the mouse pad is positioned on the armrest, and attracted to the magnet. The mouse pad can be horizontally adjusted after being attracted to the magnet.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGSThe present invention will be better understood by referring to the accompanying drawings, wherein:

From the above description, it can be understood that when being used together with one of the above chair armrests, the mouse pad of the present invention allows a mouse to be easily and smoothly operated thereon because it is positioned substantially as high as the armrest, on which the user is resting the elbows. And, the mouse pad can be easily adjusted in position to suit different situations. Consequently, the users are less likely to have sore arms or wrists after using a computer for an extended period of time.
Claims
1. A connecting structure of a mouse pad with a chair armrest, comprising
- an iron plate joined to a mouse pad, and
- a magnet joined to an upper portion of a chair armrest; the magnet having such a magnetic force on the iron plate as to be capable of preventing the mouse pad from falling off the armrest after the mouse pad is positioned on the armrest and attracted to the magnet;
- the mouse pad being horizontally adjustable in position after being attracted to the magnet.
2. The connecting structure of a mouse pad with a chair armrest as claimed in claim 1, wherein the magnet is stuck to the upper portion of the armrest by means of adhesive.
3. The connecting structure of a mouse pad with a chair armrest as claimed in claim 1, wherein the armrest has a holding room on a lower side of the upper portion thereof, and the magnet is fitted in the holding room.
4. The connecting structure of a mouse pad with a chair armrest as claimed in claim 1, wherein the armrest has a holding recess on an upper side of the upper portion thereof, and the magnet is held in the holding recess.
5. The mouse pad of claim 1 further having a wrist rest attached thereto.
6. The mouse pad as claimed in claim 5, wherein the wrist rest has a magnet fitted thereto, which magnet has such a magnetic force on the iron plate as to be capable of making the wrist rest attached to the mouse pad.
