ABSTRACT:
A finger rest structure of computer mouse, including a housing having a profile substantially suitable for manual operation of a user and a finger rest unit including at least one rest plate transversely projecting from a lateral side of the housing for a finger to rest thereon. Two rest plates are respectively disposed on left and right sides of the housing near front and rear ends. Alternatively, the rest plate is integrally connected along the rear side and a part of lateral side of the housing. Alternatively, the rest plates are pivotally and foldably connected with the housing or disposed at two ends of a rotary plate which is rotatably disposed under the housing, whereby the rest plate can be selectively extended or retracted. The rest plate serves to bear most of the weight of the hand and reduce the frictional force of the hand against the table face. Also, the rest plate enlarges the bottom area of the mouse, whereby the mouse can more closely attach to the table face during moving and the control of the mouse is facilitated.
