Abstract
A modular mousepad assembly is disclosed, including a foam insert and a fabric layer connected to one another and retained in position using cohesion. A top frame and a bottom frame may be magnetically connected and retain the foam insert and fabric layer therebetween. The magnetic connection between the top frame and the bottom frame enables a user to efficiently and readily replace the foam insert and the fabric layer to customize the comfort and mouse performance while the mouse is being moved over the modular mousepad assembly.
Claims20
A modular mousepad assembly, comprising:
- a foam insert and a fabric layer secured using a suction-based adhesion mechanism, wherein the foam insert includes a coating that creates a non-permanent adhesive force with the fabric layer to prevent unintended movement during use.
A modular mousepad assembly, comprising:
- a foam insert and a fabric layer each positioned between a top frame and a bottom frame, the foam insert, and the fabric layer secured via a suction-based adhesion mechanism;
- a plurality of first magnetic components positioned on the top frame;
- and
- a plurality of second magnetic components positioned on the bottom frame,
- wherein the plurality of first magnetic components and the plurality of second magnetic components magnetically connect the top frame to the bottom frame.
A modular mousepad assembly, comprising:
- a foam insert having an upper surface;
- a fabric layer having a bottom surface positioned on the upper surface of the foam insert;
- and
- a suction-based adhesion mechanism formed between the upper surface of the foam insert and the bottom surface of the fabric layer,
- wherein the suction-based adhesion mechanism secures the fabric layer to the foam insert by creating a low-pressure interface upon contact, without the use of permanent adhesives, fasteners or stitching.
