Description
SPECTACLE FRAMES Technical Field 0 The present invention relates to spectacle frames, and in particular relates to o spectacle frame assemblies having a primary spectacle frame and a detachable auxiliary spectacle frame.
00 00 Background of the Invention oTo enable the use of sunglass lenses with spectacles having prescription lenses, Ni various forms of "clip-on" detachable auxiliary spectacle frames have been proposed which o allow the auxiliary frame housing sunglass lenses to be clipped onto the frame front of the primary spectacle frame housing the prescription lenses via various forms of clips. The success of the various forms of clips varies in terms of security of attachment, non-intrusive appearance and ease of attachment/detachment.
Replacement of the clip type attachment means with cooperating magnetic attachments on both the primary and auxiliary spectacle frames has also been proposed.
The security of attachment of currently available spectacle frame assemblies of this type is quite poor, however, with the auxiliary spectacle frame typically being free to rattle, vibrate or flicker and possibly disengage with any jarring movements of the wearer, such as during various forms of exercise. Rattling, vibrating or flickering of the auxiliary spectacle frame can be uncomfortable and possibly harmful to the human eye by causing optical distortion as well as rapid variations in light levels if light is able to pass around the tinted lenses of the auxiliary spectacle frames when displaced.
The present applicant's parent Patent No. 723061 provides one solution overcoming the above disadvantages which has been modified as described herein.
Object of the Invention It is the object of the present invention to overcome or substantially ameliorate at least some of the above disadvantages.

Detailed Description of the Prefe'rred Embodiments With reference to Figures 1 through 9, a first embodiment of the current invention provides a spectacle frame assembly comprising a primary spectacle frame 100 and an auxiliary spectacle frame 200 which can be secured to the primary spectacle frame 100.
The primary spectacle frame 100 will typically house prescription lenses, with the auxiliary spectacle frame 200 housing tinted sunglass lenses as per common "clip on" assemblies.
The primary spectacle frame 100 has a primary frame front 110, a pair of temples 120 for engaging the ears and the sides of the wearer's head pivotally coupled to laterally outer ends 111 of the primary frame front 110 and a pair of primary frame lugs 130 which are secured to the primary frame front 110 adjacent the laterally outer ends 111 of the primary frame front 110. For a conventional primary spectacle frame 100, the primary frame front 110 will typically be provided with a primary frame arm 112 toward each lateral end I with the temples 120 being pivotally coupled to the primary frame arms 112 and the primary frame lugs 130 secured to the primary frame arms 112. For [RALIBLL] 13709.doc:vjp:TCW
A
O spectacle frame designs without distinct arms 112, however, the primary frame lugs 130 can 0 (A still be suitably secured to the frame adjacent the primary frame front lateral ends.
U The auxiliary spectacle frame 200 has a pair of auxiliary frame lugs 230 disposed oO at laterally outer ends 211 thereof. The auxiliary frame lugs 230 are typically secured to 0 5 auxiliary frame arms 212 provided toward each laterally outer end of the auxiliary frame OO 200. The auxiliary frame lugs 230 are each engageable with the corresponding primary 00 frame lug 130 with the auxiliary frame lug 230 disposed beneath the corresponding primary frame lug 130, as depicted in Figures 6 and 7 to secure the auxiliary spectacle frame 200 to n the primary spectacle frame 100. This compares to the spectacle frame assembly of the tio applicant's earlier parent Patent No. 723061 where the auxiliary frame lugs are disposed on top of the primary frame lugs. With the strength of available magnets, the extra mechanical support of the auxiliary lugs provided by having the auxiliary lugs on top of the primary frame lugs in Patent No. 723061 is not required.
As best depicted in Figures 8 and 9, each primary frame lug 130 is provided with a magnetic member 131 which is received in an open cavity 231 provided in the corresponding auxiliary frame lug 230. The open cavity 231 has a peripheral wall 232, which is here cylindrical, which engages a corresponding peripheral wall 132 of the magnetic member 131, which is here also cylindrical. The magnetic member 131 is hence retained in the open cavity 231, and the auxiliary frame lug 230 can not readily slide from underneath the primary frame lug 130 to detach the auxiliary frame 200 from the primary frame 100 as is the case with currently available magnetically attached auxiliary frames.
The auxiliary frame lug 230 is at least partially formed of a ferrous material to facilitate the magnetic securing of the auxiliary frame lug 230 to the primary frame lug 130. The auxiliary frame lug 230 is hence secured to the primary frame lug by both a magnetic force and the physical connection of the magnetic member peripheral wall 132 to the auxiliary frame lug 230 within the open cavity 231. The auxiliary spectacle frame 200 of the preferred embodiment is thus restrained against horizontal and vertical movement relative to the primary spectacle frame 100. The current applicant refers to the secure spectacle assembly thus provided by the engaging magnetic members 131 and open cavities 231 as a mono-magnetic clip-on assembly (MMCA).
In the preferred embodiment the entire auxiliary frame lug 230, and in fact the entirety of the auxiliary spectacle frame 200, is formed of steel. The primary spectacle frame 100 is also formed largely of steel, however persons skilled in the art will appreciate that the current invention is applicable to primary and secondary spectacle [R:LIBLL]13709.doc:vjp:TCW o frames of any suitable material, typically metallic or plastic, so long as the auxiliary frame 0 ",lugs 230 are at least partially formed of ferrous material for cooperating with the magnetic O members 131.
00.Each primary frame lug 130 comprises a ring 134 which is secured to the primary frame arm 112, here by soldering, and the magnetic member 131 secured in the ring, here 00 by a suitable adhesive, such that the peripheral wall 132 of the magnetic member 131 0n protrudes below the ring 134, enabling it to be received in the open cavity 231 of the n auxiliary frame lug 230. The magnetic member 131 of the depicted embodiment is a high 0 ostrength cylindrical magnet with a diameter of approximately 4 mm and a height of approximately 2 mm. The ring 134 should have a minimal thickness to allow the maximum exposure of the magnetic member peripheral wall 132 below the top of the ring 134, yet still thick enough to ensure the magnetic member can be effectively secured thereto. Here the ring 134 is approximately 1 mm thick, leaving 1 mm of the magnetic member peripheral wall 134 exposed for engaging the open cavity peripheral wall 232 of the auxiliary frame lug 230.
Each of the auxiliary frame lugs 230 here comprises a hollow cylinder 230 secured to the auxiliary frame arm 212, by soldering or other suitable means. For added strength the auxiliary frame lug 230 could be cast integrally with the auxiliary frame annrm 212 rather than mounted separately on the arm. Casting a solid auxiliary frame arm 212 rather than a thin wire also helps prevent bending of the arms which would require readjustment to enable the auxiliary frame lugs 230 to engage the primary frame lugs 130. The open cavity 231 of the auxiliary frame lug 230 is defined by the hollow of the hollow cylinder. Here the open cavity 231 of each auxiliary frame lug 230 is open at the upper end only, with the lower end of the open cavity being closed by an upper wall 233 of ferrous material for engaging a lower surface 133 of the magnetic member 131 of the primary frame lug 130, thereby increasing the size of the surface of the auxiliary frame lug 230 on which the magnetic member 131 acts. The upper surface of the hollow cylinder 230 is seated on the lower surface of the ring 134 of the primary frame lug 130.
Alternatively, both the upper and lower ends of the open cavity 231 of the auxiliary frame lug could be open such that the auxiliary frame lug hollow cylinder 230 is in the [RA:LIBLLJ13709.doc:vjp:TCW general form of a ring which engages the exposed peripheral wall 132 of the magnetic member 131, and leaving the lower wall 133 of the magnetic member 131 exposed. This O alternative can reduce the total height of the auxiliary frame lug 230 by removing the upper
OO
o wall.
Rather than providing the primary frame lugs 130 with the magnetic members 131 00 00 and the auxiliary frame lugs 230 with the open cavities 231, the primary frame lugs could be oprovided with open cavities for receiving magnetic members provided on the auxiliary N frame lugs in much the same manner. In such an embodiment, the primary frame lugs C would need to be formed at least partially of ferrous material for cooperating with the to magnetic members.
To enhance the aesthetics of the spectacle frame assembly and to reduce the possibility of damage, the primary frame lugs 130 are typically disposed rearwardly of the primary frame arms 112. The auxiliary frame arms 212 extend beneath the primary frame arms 112 so as to position the auxiliary frame lugs 230 for engagement with the primary frame lugs 130.
In the preferred embodiment, to further enhance aesthetics, particularly of the primary spectacle frame 100 when used without the auxiliary frame 200, the upper surface 135 of each primary frame lug is substantially flush with the lower surface 112a of the primary frame arm 112, and the lower surface 133 of each primary frame lug 130 is substantially flush with the upper surface 112b of the primary frame arm 112. This configuration provides the maximum thickness of primary frame lug 130 which is hid behind the primary frame arms 112 so that the primary frame lugs 130 will generally not be seen when the primary spectacle frame 100 is worn by itself (as is evident from Figure 1).
The current invention is equally applicable to rimmed primary and auxiliary spectacle frames 100, 200 as depicted in Figures 1 through 7, or to rimless designs as depicted in Figure 10 through 14. For the rimmed primary spectacle frame design of Figures I to 3, the primary frame front 110 includes a pair of primary frame rims 113 for receiving a pair of primary lenses, which will typically be prescription lenses, and a primary frame bridge 114 secured to and separating the primary frame rims 113 in the [R:\LIBLL]13709.doc:vjp:TCW usual manner, with the primary frame arms 112 of the frame front 110 being secured to laterally outer portions 113a of each of the primary frame rims 113, again in the usual 0 O manner.
o The rimmed auxiliary spectacle frame 200 of Figures 4 and 5 includes a pair of auxiliary frame rims 213 for receiving a pair of auxiliary lenses, which will typically be 00 00 tinted sunglass lenses and will usually be provided already fitted to the rims 213, and an oauxiliary frame bridge 214 secured to and separating the auxiliary frame rims 212. The ci auxiliary frame arms 212 are secured to laterally outer portions 213a of each of the auxiliary 0 0 frame rims 213.
0to To assist with providing a rigid attachment of the auxiliary spectacle frame 200 to the primary spectacle frame 100, the auxiliary frame bridge 214 is designed to extend over and engage the primary frame bridge 114. The auxiliary frame bridge 214 is comprised of end portions 214a which are secured to the auxiliary frame rims 213 and each extend rearwardly over the primary frame bridge to an intermediate portion 214b extending downwardly to a central portion 214c extending between the intermediate portions 214b.
The end portions 214a rest on the top surface of the primary frame bridge 114, preventing the auxiliary spectacle frame 200 from moving downwards relative to the primary spectacle frame 100. The central portion 214c is hooked behind the primary frame bridge 114 preventing the top of the auxiliary spectacle frame 200 from tilting forward.
As discussed above, the current invention can be applied to rimless primary and/or auxiliary spectacle frames. Figures 10 through 12 depict a primary spectacle frame 300 with its primary spectacle frame front 310 including a pair of primary lenses 313, a primary frame bridge 314 secured to and separating the primary lenses 313 and primary frame arms 312 secured to laterally outer portions 313a of each of the primary lenses 313. The primary frame lugs 330 can be configured in the same manner as described above.
Figures 13 and 14 similarly depict a rimless auxiliary spectacle frame 400 which includes a pair of auxiliary lenses 413, an auxiliary frame bridge 414 secured to and separating the auxiliary lenses 413, auxiliary frame arms 412 secured to laterally outer portions 413a of each of the auxiliary lenses 413 and auxiliary frame lugs 430 which are [R:ALIBLLlI 3709.doc:vjp:TCW o configured and operate in the same manner as discussed above. If so desired, a rimless auxiliary spectacle frame 400 can be used with a rimmed primary spectacle frame 100 and 0 vice versa.
