DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2 for a wireless cursor indicating device (which is a wireless mouse in this embodiment, but the persons skilled in the art also could use an indicating cursor to substitute the wireless mouse), the wireless cursor indicating device is comprised of first and second bodies 10, 20 with a corresponding shape. In FIG. 2, the first body 10 includes a battery accommodating space 11 for containing a battery 30 to supply the required power supply, and the first body 10 includes a containing space 12 in the accommodating space 11 for containing an object such as a wireless receiver or any other electronic part, and the first body 10 includes a control circuit 40 in other space, and the control circuit in this embodiment is an optical control circuit board, but the persons skilled in the art can install related circuits the control circuit. The optical control circuit 40 includes a frame 16 pressing against the surface of the optical control circuit 40, and the frame 16 includes an elastic pressing member 161 extended towards the containing space 12 and a groove 162 for fixing an object such as a wireless receiver or other electronic parts. Further, the frame 16 includes an electric connector 13 coupled to the optical control circuit 40 and battery 30, and the first body 10 includes parallel sliding grooves 14 or sliding tracks on both sides of the frame 16. The first body 10 includes a limit member 15 disposed at an edge of the first body 10, and the limit member is a protruding blocking plate in this embodiment, but the persons skilled in the art can substitute the protruding blocking plate by another appropriate component.
In FIG. 1, the second body 20 includes a sliding track 21 or sliding groove disposed separately on both sides of the second body 20 corresponding to the sliding groove 14 or sliding track of the first body 10 for slidably embedding the first and second bodies 10, 20, and the second body 20 includes a limit member 22 disposed on a surface corresponding to the first body 10. The limit member 22 is a protrusion in this embodiment, but the persons skilled in the art can substitute the protrusion with another appropriate element. The limit member 22 works in conjunction with a groove 162 of the first body 10 to provide a limitation when the first and second bodies 10, 20 are slidably and alternately disposed, and the second body 20 also includes a control unit 50 and a roller 51 disposed at a position corresponding to the control circuit 40 of the first body 10, and the control unit 50 installs an electric connector 52 connected to the control unit 50, such that the electric connectors 13, 52 are in contact with each other or an electric circuit 70 is connected between the electric connectors 13, 52 as shown in FIG. 1A when the control unit 50 is in use, and the control circuit 40 and power supply on the first body 10 are electrically connected with the control unit 50 on the second body 20 as shown in FIG. 4 for driving the wireless mouse, and its operation is similar to that of a general wireless mouse, which is a prior art and thus will not be described here.
Further, an elastic member 60 (which is a spring in this embodiment) is installed between the first and second bodies 10, 20, and an end of the elastic member 60a is latched between the accommodating space 11 and the sliding groove 14, and another end of the elastic member 60a is latched into an embedding groove 23 of the second body 20, and the embedding groove 23 is basically disposed alternately with the first body 10.
Referring to FIGS. 3 to 7 for an application, the sliding groove 14 and the sliding track 21 are embedded with each other, and a distal edge of the sliding track 21 is pressed and fixed by the limit member 15, such that the first and second bodies 10, 20 can be stacked to define an OFF state as shown in FIG. 3. In the OFF state, the electric connectors 13, 52 of the first and second bodies 10, 20 are in contact with each other, and the power supply, control circuit 40 and control unit 50 are electrically connected as shown in FIG. 4. If a user wants to access an object (which is a wireless receiver in this embodiment) in the first body 10 or install or change a battery, the user can push the second body 20 forward at an OFF state, such that the second body 20 can be moved along the sliding track 21, and the elastic member 60 can be extended into a coiled status. If the second body 20 continues to move along the sliding track 21, the elastic member 60 will be uncoiled until the accommodating space 11 and containing space 12 are exposed, so that the second body 20 is disposed alternately with the first body 10 to define an ON state and facilitate the user to place or remove an object or change a battery 30. In the ON state, the elastic member 60 presses the limit member 22 on the second body 20 and the groove 162 on the frame 16 to restrict the second body 20 from continuing to slide, such that the first and second bodies 10, 20 will not be disposed alternately at the ON state, but the containing space 12 will be exposed as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, and the resilience of the elastic member 60 can restore the OFF state. If the first and second bodies 10 are restored to the OFF state, the limit member 15 restricts the distal edge of the sliding track 21 (not shown in the figure) to achieve the positioning effect, and thus the first and second bodies 10, 20 will be stacked as shown in FIG. 7.
In summation of the description above, the object, shape, structure of the present invention are novel and improve over the prior art and thus is duly submitted for the patent application. While the invention has been described by means of specific embodiments, modifications and variations could be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention set forth in the claims.
