Abstract:
An electronic device (10) with a decorative sealed vessel (30), the electronic device (10) having a casing (16), an electric circuit mechanism (14), and a power connection interface (11), wherein the power connection interface (11) is used to connect with a computing device 90 for receiving electrical power from the computing device (90) and provide the electrical power for the electric circuit mechanism (14), wherein the electronic device (10) is a pointing device (51) and further comprises:a magnetic generating device connected with the electric circuit mechanism (14) and capable of receiving the electrical power for generating a varying magnetic field a decorative sealed vessel (30) coupled to the electronic device (10), comprising: at least one liquid; at least one decorative structure (40) having a magnetic member (41); wherein the decorative structure (40) is insoluble in the liquid and floats on the liquid; wherein the electric circuit mechanism (14) provides a varying electric current for the electromagnetic (20a), so that the electromagnetic (20a) generates a varying magnetic field; wherein the electromagnet (20a) is positioned around the decorative sealed vessel (30); and whereby when the electromagnet (20a) generates a varying magnetic field, the magnetic member (41) moves so that the decorative structure (40) moves accordingly.
