Apple's new patent shows that the magic mouse can change the shape according to different users

Long-time computer users need a mouse that fits their hands if they want to work comfortably for long periods of time. If the size and style are wrong, using key peripherals such as the keyboard and mouse for a long time may cause repeated strains and other consequences. Apple Corps on Tuesday received a patent from the United States Patent and Trademark Office called a "mouse with a reshaped enclosure." In this patent, Apple proposed the idea of ​​using a mouse for all users, this mouse can change the actual size according to user needs.
This patent describes how a mouse has a housing containing a hinged member, the outer surface of which is placed on the palm of the user. An actuator is contained within the housing, the actuator being attached to a hinged member to push and pull the mouse between different positions. By articulating the housing, the curvature and height can be adjusted to meet user preferences, which can also make the mouse thinner, making it easier to store and transport than a normal round mouse.
To ensure structural integrity, the shell can be composed of overlapping parts, thereby eliminating possible gaps that may pinch fingers or weaken the overall structure when compressed. Although this connection can be applied vertically, Apple Inc. also hinted at the possibility of a wider mouse. The side slide-out section is again controlled by the actuator and can be ejected to various positions to accommodate greater grip. And these pop-up elements can still be contained in the entire case, which means that the mouse can maintain a smooth appearance without gaps or holes, while still being able to change its size.
The actuation system can take many forms, including a scissor mechanism, a rotating motor with extended struts, a multi-segment actuator for better control of size, and even a magnet-based actuator. Apple submits a large number of patent applications every week, but cannot guarantee that the concepts described will appear in future products or services. iSimu.com, is a global Used Digital trading platform, the main business is original used mobile phones, such as Apple, Huawei, Samsung, TECNO, itel, Infinix, etc.
