The mouse body has a top surface, a bottom surface, an internal chamber and a signal line. The main feature is that the mouse is further provided with an air levitation sliding device, including an air supply source, an air supply pipeline and an air injection channel, the air injection channel is disposed on the bottom surface of the mouse body, and the air supply source is disposed outside the mouse body, and two ends of the air supply pipeline are respectively connected to the air supply source and the air injection channel. Thereby, the air pressure generated by the air supply source is transmitted to the air injection channel through the air supply pipeline to eject out from the bottom surface of the mouse body, so that the mouse the mouse can be in the air levitation sliding state. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A mouse apparatus comprising: a mouse body having a top surface and a bottom surface and an internal chamber, the top surface having a plurality of control parts thereon, the bottom surface having a sensing part, said mouse body having side with a signal line, the signal line having an electrical connection terminal at an end thereof; and an air levitation sliding device having an air supply source and an air supply pipeline and at least one air injection channel, wherein the at least one air injection channel is disposed on the bottom surface of said mouse body, the air supply source being disposed away from said mouse body, the air supply source adapted to generate a gas pressure, one end of the air supply pipeline being connected to the air supply source, an opposite end of the air supply pipeline being connected to the at least one air injection channel, the at least one air injection channel opening to the bottom surface of said mouse body such that the gas pressure passing from the air supply pipeline into the at least one air injection channel flows downwardly below the bottom surface of said mouse body so as to levitate said mouse body. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The mouse apparatus of claim 1, wherein the at least one air injection channel comprises a plurality of air injection channels in spaced relation to each other at the bottom surface of said mouse body, the mouse apparatus further comprising: an air collection chamber disposed above the bottom surface of said mouse body, the plurality of air injection channels being connected to said air collection chamber, said air collection chamber having an air inlet interface on one side thereof, one end of the air supply pipeline being connected to the air inlet interface. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The mouse assembly of claim 2, wherein the air supply pipeline extends along the signal line. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The mouse assembly of claim 3, wherein the air supply pipeline and the signal line are merged as a single line. ### Claim 5 (depends on 2) The mouse assembly of claim 2, the air supply source has a power supply which is a power inlet of the electrical connection terminal. ### Claim 6 (depends on 2) The mouse assembly of claim 2, wherein the air supply source has a power supply which is a self-contained battery of the air supply source. ### Claim 7 (depends on 2) The mouse assembly of claim 2, wherein the top surface of said mouse body has a start sensing part, the start sensing part being electrically connected to the air supply source and adapted to sense when a hand of a user is placed on the top surface of said mouse body, the start sensing part transmitting a control signal to the air supply source so as to automatically active or deactive the air supply source. ### Claim 8 (depends on 2) The mouse assembly of claim 2, wherein the air supply source has a switch adapted to allow a user to move the switch to activate or deactivate the air supply source. ### Claim 9 (depends on 2) The mouse assembly of claim 2, wherein the bottom surface of said mouse body has a plurality of spaced-apart magnetic bodies, the mouse apparatus further comprising: a magnetic pad upon which said mouse body is placed, a magnetic attraction between the plurality of spaced-apart magnetic bodies and said magnetic pad being less than an air levitation pressure created by the gas pressure ejected from the at least one air injection channel. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The mouse apparatus of claim 1, wherein the opposite end of the air supply pipeline extends into the internal chamber of said mouse body, the bottom surface of said mouse body being recessed and having at least one diffusion groove, the at least one diffusion groove being connected to the at least one air injection channel so as to diffuse the gas pressure. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The mouse assembly of claim 1, wherein the air supply pipeline extends along the signal line. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The mouse assembly of claim 11, wherein the air supply pipeline and the signal line are merged as a single line. ### Claim 13 (depends on 1) The mouse assembly of claim 1, the air supply source has a power supply which is a power inlet of the electrical connection terminal. ### Claim 14 (depends on 1) The mouse assembly of claim 1, wherein the air supply source has a power supply which is a self-contained battery of the air supply source. ### Claim 15 (depends on 1) The mouse assembly of claim 1, wherein the top surface of said mouse body has a start sensing part, the start sensing part being electrically connected to the air supply source and adapted to sense when a hand of a user is placed on the top surface of said mouse body, the start sensing part transmitting a control signal to the air supply source so as to automatically active or deactive the air supply source. ### Claim 16 (depends on 1) The mouse assembly of claim 1, wherein the air supply source has a switch adapted to allow a user to move the switch to activate or deactivate the air supply source. ### Claim 17 (depends on 1) The mouse assembly of claim 1, wherein the bottom surface of said mouse body has a plurality of spaced-apart magnetic bodies, the mouse apparatus further comprising: a magnetic pad upon which said mouse body is placed, a magnetic attraction between the plurality of spaced-apart magnetic bodies and said magnetic pad being less than an air levitation pressure created by the gas pressure ejected from the at least one air injection channel.
