Ergonomic Computer Input Device

View page
US Patent:
6556150, Apr 29, 2003
Filed:
Mar 24, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/533998
Inventors:
Hugh E. McLoone - Bellevue WA
Gregory G. Jones - Seattle WA
Melissa S. Jacobson - Seattle WA
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
H03M 1100
US Classification:
341 20, 345163
Abstract:
A computer input device that comfortably supports the hand of the user while the thumb and fingers are associated with buttons, a trackball, and a scrolling wheel carried on the device. The overall configuration of the device and the arrangement of these actuators permit the user to easily and effectively operate all of the functions provided by the actuators while the hand and arm of the user are in a comfortable position. The device includes a housing having an asymmetrical dividing ridge forming a âthumb-side surface,â for placement of the thumb, and a âfinger-side surface,â for placement of the remaining four fingers. The finger-side surface includes a ball rotatably mounted in the housing and further includes first and second input buttons disposed to the side of the ball which may be used as âforwardâ and âbackâ buttons. The first and second input buttons adjacent to the ball may be replaced by a linearly slidable or pivotally movable actuator. The movable member is preferably of the three-position-type enabling the user to activate the movable member in a forward or a backward direction for transmission of respective signals to the computer.

US Patent:
6590564, Jul 8, 2003
Filed:
Mar 24, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/534001
Inventors:
Hugh E. McLoone - Bellevue WA
Allen M. Han - Kirkland WA
Melissa S. Jacobson - Seattle WA
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G09G 508
US Classification:
345167, 345156, 345157, 345163, 345162, 345160, 345161
Abstract:
A computer input device that comfortably supports the hand of the user while the thumb and fingers are associated with buttons, a trackball, and a scrolling wheel carried on the device. The overall configuration of the device and the arrangement of these actuators permits the user to easily and effectively operate all of the actuators while the hand and arm of the user are in a comfortable position. The device includes a housing having thumb-side and finger-side surfaces. The trackball extends from the thumb-side surface. The finger-side surface includes four input buttons and the scrolling wheel. The thumb-side surface is fairly steep and almost at right angles to the finger-side surface. This helps enable the motion of the thumb to fall along its natural axis of flexion/extension. The thumb-side surface extends above the top of the ball to provide a stop when the thumb is moved inwardly off the ball. The buttons and the wheel on the finger-side surface are in line in a single row to allow the fingers to move within a natural range of motion for efficient control.

US Patent:
6700564, Mar 2, 2004
Filed:
Apr 30, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/843794
Inventors:
Hugh McLoone - Bellevue WA
James Cauthorn - Seattle WA
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G09G 500
US Classification:
345156, 345163, 345168, 345973, 345684
Abstract:
A computer input device having a housing and an engagable scroll wheel. The scroll wheel is rotatable about an axis to preferably cause vertical scrolling of an image on a display. The rotatable member is laterally movable relative to the housing. A sensor is preferably positioned within the housing for sensing lateral movement of the rotatable member. In response to sensed lateral movement of the rotatable member, the image is horizontally scrolled, preferably in the direction of the lateral movement. The scrolling speed can be affected relative to the amount of displacement of the rotatable member and/or the amount of time that the rotatable member is displaced a predetermined amount. The computer input device having the rotatable member may take the form of a keyboard, a mouse, a trackball device, or another type of computer input device.

Keyboard With Improved Lateral Region

View page
US Patent:
6712535, Mar 30, 2004
Filed:
Apr 30, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/843723
Inventors:
Hugh E. McLoone - Bellevue WA
James H. Cauthorn - Seattle WA
Jonathan A. Hayes - Seattle WA
Carl J. Ledbetter - Lynnwood WA
Steven N. Bathiche - Redmond WA
William H. Vong - Seattle WA
Kenneth V. Fry - Seattle WA
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
B41J 510
US Classification:
400489, 400472
Abstract:
A keyboard having an input region that provides a set of input elements designed to complement a separate pointing device such as a computer mouse. These input elements enable both the dominant and non-dominant hand to work easily together to perform various functions, which in turn, makes âconsumptionâ and âcompositionâ tasks more efficient. The input region may be spaced laterally from the alphanumeric or âQWERTYâ section of the keyboard. The elements include a scrolling member, first and second groups of keys, and an application switching device. The scrolling member may take the form of a rotatable member. The rotatable member may have an asymmetric outer profile and/or be frustum-shaped. The first group of keys preferably includes a Back key and a Forward key. The first group of keys and the scrolling member make performing âconsumptionâ tasks more efficient.

Keyboard With Improved Numeric Section

US Patent:
6883984, Apr 26, 2005
Filed:
Apr 30, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/843724
Inventors:
Hugh E. McLoone - Bellevue WA, US
James H. Cauthorn - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
B41J005/08
US Classification:
400486, 400489, 400477
Abstract:
A keyboard having an improved numeric section and an improved numeric key cluster in the numeric section. The keyboard preferably includes an alphanumeric or QWERTY section and an editing section laterally disposed from the numeric section. A row of function keys is preferably provided above at least the numeric key cluster. The present invention also provides keys frequently used with the numeric section within, or in close proximity to, the key cluster in the numeric section. A Tab key or an Equals “=” key has been provided within the key cluster for improved efficiency. Additionally, a row, preferably including four keys, is provided above and in close proximity to the numeric key cluster. These keys preferably include a Left Parenthesis “(“ key, a Right Parenthesis “)” key, a Backspace key, and a Tab key or an Equals “=” key, whichever is not provided within the numeric key cluster. The keyboard does not include a specifically labeled NumLock key within the numeric key cluster.

US Patent:
6910818, Jun 28, 2005
Filed:
Apr 30, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/843799
Inventors:
Hugh E. McLoone - Bellevue WA, US
James H. Cauthom - Seattle WA, US
Jonathan A. Hayes - Seattle WA, US
Kenneth V. Fry - Seattle WA, US
William H. Vong - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
B41J005/08
US Classification:
400477, 400472, 400489, 345168
Abstract:
A keyboard having an improved function key section and an improved editing section. A row of keys is located behind the alphanumeric section. The row of keys includes individual predefined command keys. The groupings of the predefined command keys may be made based on the functionality of the keys, their use on common applications or programs, and/or other by other grouping techniques. Further, the keys within each group may be ordered based on chronological order of use, frequency of use, or by a correlation to a graphical toolbar. Each of at least two adjacent groupings of keys behind the alphanumeric region consists of exactly three keys, and each of at least three adjacent key groupings in the entire row consists of exactly three keys. The keys are each capable of functioning as predetermined command keys in a first mode and standard function keys in a second mode. A Function Lock key may be used to convert these keys from their use in one mode as their predefined command keys to another mode where they become standard function keys.
