Combination computer mouse pad and writing pad

Claim 2

A combination computer mouse pad and writing pad comprising, in combination: a plurality of sheets of paper; each of said plurality of sheets of paper having four side edges, a top surface and a bottom surface; each top surface being textured by having a plurality of micro scales thermographically printed over substantially the entire top surface to define a working surface which may be neatly and smoothly written on and for engaging and cleaning a track ball and a base surface of a computer mouse thereon; a base having four edges, an upper surface and a lower surface; said lower surface having a non-skid layer secured thereto; and securing means along two substantially perpendicular side edges of each of said plurality of sheets of paper and two substantially perpendicular side edges of said base to secure said plurality of sheets of paper to each other and to said upper surface of said base so as to form said combination computer mouse pad and writing pad, with a first of said working surfaces facing outwardly, away from said upper surface of said base, and the remaining working surfaces facing a bottom surface of an adjacent one of said plurality of sheets of paper.

Claim 3

The combination computer mouse pad and writing pad of claim 1 wherein said micro scales are printed about 0.005" apart.

Claim 4

The combination computer mouse pad and writing pad of claim 2 wherein said non-skid layer on said lower surface of said base consists of a rubberized backing.

Claim 5

A combination computer mouse pad and writing pad comprising, in combination: a plurality of sheets of paper; each of said plurality of sheets of paper having four side edges, a top surface and a bottom surface; each top surface having a scales design printed over substantially the entire top surface spaced about 0.005" apart by a thermographic process so as to define a working surface which may be neatly and smoothly written on and for engaging and cleaning a track ball and a base surface of a computer mouse thereon; a base having four edges, an upper surface and a lower surface; said lower surface having a rubberized non-skid layer secured thereto; and securing means along two perpendicular side edges of each of said plurality of sheets of paper and along two perpendicular edges of said base to secure said plurality of sheets of paper to each other and to said upper surface of said base so as to form said combination computer mouse pad and writing pad.

Claim 6

A combination computer mouse pad and writing pad comprising, in combination: a plurality of sheets of paper; each of said plurality of sheets of paper having four side edges, a top surface and a bottom surface; each top surface having a scales design printed over substantially the entire top surface spaced about 0.005" apart by a thermographic process so as to define a working surface which may be neatly and smoothly written on and for engaging and cleaning a track ball and a base surface of a computer mouse thereon; a base having four edges, an upper surface and a lower surface; said lower surface having a rubberized non-skid layer secured thereto; and securing means along two perpendicular side edges of each of said plurality of sheets of paper and along two perpendicular edges of said base to secure said plurality of sheets of paper to each other and to said upper surface of said base so as to form said combination computer mouse pad and writing pad.

Claim 7

A combination computer mouse pad and writing pad comprising, in combination: a plurality of separate sheets of paper; each of said plurality of separate sheets of paper having four side edges, a top surface and flat bottom surface; each top surface having a textured design printed thereon; said textured design printed on substantially the entire top surface of each sheet of paper being in the form of micro scales so as to define a working surface which may be used for neat and smooth writing and for engaging and cleaning a track ball and a lower surface of a computer mouse thereon; a base having four edges, an upper surface and a lower surface, said lower surface having a separate, rubberized, non-skid layer secured thereto; and securing means formed only along two adjacent and perpendicular side edges of each of said plurality of separate sheets of paper and along two corresponding adjacent and perpendicular edges of said base, to secure said plurality of separate sheets of paper to each other and to said base, along the two adjacent and perpendicular side edges so as to form said combination computer mouse pad and writing paper wherein separate sheets of paper may be easily torn off, one at a time, without ripping.

Claim 8

A combination computer mouse pad and writing pad comprising, in combination: a plurality of separate sheets of paper; each of said plurality of separate sheets of paper having four side edges, a top surface and flat bottom surface; each top surface having a textured design printed thereon; said textured design printed on substantially the entire top surface of each sheet of paper being in the form of micro scales so as to define a working surface which may be used for neat and smooth writing and for engaging and cleaning a track ball and a lower surface of a computer mouse thereon; a base having four edges, an upper surface and a lower surface, said lower surface having a separate, rubberized, non-skid layer secured thereto; and securing means formed only along two adjacent and perpendicular side edges of each of said plurality of separate sheets of paper and along two corresponding adjacent and perpendicular edges of said base, to secure said plurality of separate sheets of paper to each other and to said base, along the two adjacent and perpendicular side edges so as to form said combination computer mouse pad and writing paper wherein separate sheets of paper may be easily torn off, one at a time, without ripping.
