Abstract:
Eyeglasses and clip-ons are improved by providing housings for magnets for securing the clip-ons in a uniblock also incorporating one or more of the following: part of a closing block, an end piece, and part of a hinge. The structure is more compact, neater in appearance, and of improved quality as compared to eyeglasses incorporating conventional structures, and is less expensive to manufacture than many conventional eyeglasses, especially in large volume.
Abstract:
A detachable magnetic hinge system for rotatably coupling objects, such as primary eyewear and auxiliary eyewear includes first and second hinge members which are magnetically coupled to one another. The first hinge member is associated with the first object and has at least six generally planar outwardly-facing facets. The second hinge member is associated with the second object and has a plurality of generally planar inwardly-facing facets configured to detachably overlie less than all of the outwardly-facing facets of the first hinge member. Due to the magnetic coupling, selective segmented rotation of the second hinge member relative to the first hinge member is provided.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an eyeglass device having two pairs of glasses which are integrated together by placing one pair of glasses over the other pair of glasses. There have been methods by which two pairs of glasses are combined into one pair of glasses. However, these glasses have had several problems such as weak combining strength or removal of one pair of glasses for their storage. The present invention comprises primary glasses and auxiliary glasses, the auxiliary glasses being attached to the primary glasses by insert slots formed in the primary glasses in order to improve the combining strength, and are able to be folded up when not used in order to provide the same effect as being removed, without being removed from the primary glasses.
Abstract:
A combination eyeglass frame and attachment frame which includes two pairs of magnets, one pair being mounted on the inside surface of the temples of the eyeglass frame and the other pair being mounted at the ends of the attachment frame. The attachment frame is provided with a bridge member and wire members which mechanically support and hold the attachment frame magnets in place, and the attachment frame bridge member and wire members are positioned relative to the attachment frame magnets to engage the bridge member and upper edge portion of the eyeglass frame, respectively, when the attachment frame is mounted in place on the eyeglass frame.

Abstract:
Eyeglasses including lens and frame portions with a holder in holding engagement with the lens. The frame portions are shaped of a wire material with the holder including looped bent wire portions projecting forwardly of the frame portions. The lens include a mounting hole or recess for receiving the loop bent wire portions, with the hole or recess being of an oblong shape corresponding to a cross-sectional shape of the loop bent wire portions so as to be operable to receive the respective loop bent wire portions with the loop bent wire portions resiliently squeezed between opposed narrow end portions of the oblong holes or recesses thereby insuring a firm yet releasable fixation between the lens and the frame portions.
Abstract:
A mechanism for protecting the eyes from the sun that allows a user's temples and face to be exposed completely to the sun by providing a mechanism that includes a sun-shield, having a sun-protection factor, an arm attached to a stationary object for selectively positioning and maintaining the sun-shield in front of the eyes, and a mechanism for varying the sun-protection factor.
Abstract:
A lens assembly is provided that modifies the visual correction provided by a pair of base eyeglasses, in some fashion, when it is quickly, conveniently and detachably mounted to the base eyeglasses. The lens assembly uses a clip-on, magnetic or other detachable mounting arrangement. The lens assembly may incorporate corrective lenses provided in various placements for applications such as specialized occupational applications.
Abstract:
A temporary lens for attachment to prescription eyeglasses is disclosed. The temporary lens is attached to prescription eyeglasses by means of electrostatic force. The temporary lens contains optical components in a unique combination to relieve the vision problems associated with prolonged computer use.
Abstract:
A protective shield can be put on eyeglasses comprising a frame and lenses held therein. For this purpose the protective shield is provided with two pins, which are introduced into slot-shaped recesses of the eyeglass frame, whereas in the middle area of the protective shield a central pin is provided which can be inserted into a central slot-shaped recess. Achieved by means of this device is an optimal fit of the protective shield placed on the eyeglasses, optimal protective glasses being created. Advantageous hereby is that both with the protective shield and also without it, one has completely functional glasses, which can be used in various ways.
