Abstract

A mouse-type mobile phone comprises a phone body and an upper lid, wherein the phone body has a battery cover on the backside, an optical reading device on one side of the battery cover and a push cover mounted above the optical reading device. The push cover is a power switch to enable or disable the mouse function. Several mouse clicks and a scroll wheel are mounted on one side of the display monitor of the upper lid. A chip module structure comprises a message transmission interface, a central processing unit and a human-based interface and apparatus, wherein the phone body can be wirelessly or wiredly coupled with a computer via the message transmission interface. The human-based interface and apparatus has a mouse device unit and several mouse clicks coupled with the central processing unit so that a control signal can be transmitted to the computer.

Claims

1. A mouse-type mobile phone, comprising:

an upper lid having a display monitor on the surface;

a phone body having a keyboard interface on the upper surface, four pads on four corners of the backside, a battery cover on the backside, an optical reading device on one side of said battery cover, a push cover mounted above said optical reading device, and a plurality of mouse clicks and a scroll wheel mounted on one side of said display monitor of said upper lid, said push cover being a power switch to enable or disable the mouse function; and

a chip module structure comprising a message transmission interface, a central processing unit and a human-based interface and apparatus, wherein said phone body can be wirelessly or wiredly coupled with a computer via said message transmission interface, said human-based interface and apparatus has a mouse device unit and said mouse clicks coupled with said central processing unit so that a control signal generated by wheel rolling of said mouse device unit or pressing of said mouse clicks can be transmitted to said computer.
