Best Mode For Carryinq Out The Invention As depicted in Figure 1, the present invention is shown secured to display unit for a single pair of glass~s having a base 2, solid cylindrical upright member 4, a nosepiece 6, supporting a pair of glasses 8, mounted in a frame and on essentially rectangular security device 10, which, as explained hereinafter is lockingly held onto the nosepiece 6, and extends upwardly over the top of the frame 8, preventing unauthorized removal of the displayed glasses.
Likewise depicted in Figure 1, is the inventive key device which, for reasons to be explained hereinafter, includes a broad, relatively flat handle portion 12 and a pair of outwardly projecting thin flexible legs 14.
Reference is now had to Figure 2 where it can be seen that the vertical cylindrical display stand 4 supports the nosepiece 6, which includes, as an integral 132~
portion thereof, a bridge member 16, and a front face plate member 18, such that, with or without the security device as described hereinafter, a pair of glasses can be set upon the display device for easy visualization and close inspection by the prospective customer.
In the present, preferred embodiment, the lower portion of the bridge member 6, has been fabricated with a solid piece 20, which includes a central rectangular bore 22 which, as can be seen in phantom, in ~his view and explained in greater detail hereinafter, has inwardly and rearwardly tapered sides.
The security device which holds the glasses in position on the support is depicted as a squared, U-shaped device having a base 24, of sufficient dimension to extend from the bore in the nosepiece upwardly to clear the upper external dimension of the frame. The U-shaped device 10, likewise includes a pair of outwardly extending parallel legs 26 and 28, such that when the security device is locked in position form a closed loop with the vertical support 4.
The member having a body 12 and legs 14 can best be seen in Figure 2 and as seen in this view, the body 12 includes an indentation 30, a bore 32 and the legs 14 are stepped such that the outer edge is thin enough to flex when moved forward into opening 22.
Referring now to Figure 3, it can be seen that when in locked position, the lower leg 28 of the locking U 10 is bifurcated and includes 2 parallel legs 30, 32 separated by a slot and including outwardly extending feet members 34, 36 such that when the leg is forced inwardly along the tapered sides of opening 22 the legs are forced inwardly until they pass the inner edge of element 20 and snap outwardly holding the device in position.
Referring now to Figure 4, to remove the security device, the key is placed in a position straddling the security device and moved forwardly such 5 132~4 that the legs of the key bends the legs of the security device inwardly. The legs of the key are of sufficient thickness that they compress the feet inwardl~, neutralizing the step generated by the feet allowing the security device to be easily removed.
It is to be understood that for greater security additional interactive mechanical devices may be used in conjunction with the security device and the vertical support such as male/female interlocking members preventing undesired lateral movement.
The second embodiment of the present invention is best seen in Figure 5, wherein a vertical member 50, which can support one or more of the secure display devices, is shown having a nosepiece 52 having a main body portion 54 to support the bridge of an eye glass frame, with or without the lenses, and a forward, outwardly projecting flange 56 to retain the frame in position between the support 50 and the flange 56 as well as a horizontal bore 58, all substantially as described with respect to the previous embodiment.
At a predetermined distance above the nosepiece 52 there is supplied an encircling ring member 60 having a forwardly projecting block member including a pair of opposing slots, as described hereinafter, to receive trunion like member 62 located at the upper inner end of latch member 64. Latch member includes a pair of flexible projecting legs (not shown) similar to that shown in the previous embodiment such that the latch member 64 may be pivoted upwardly, as shown in phantom, to allow removal of the eye glass frame or pivoted downwardly to the latched position. In the phantom view, the legs 66 may be seen.
Thus, as can be seen, the utilization of a simple extractor, as described hereinabove to move the latching legs inwardly to clear the edges of the opening 58 allows the latching mechanism 64 to be pivoted upwardly about trunion 62 permitting removal of the glass frame.
Reference is now had to Figure 6, wherein the vertical cylindrical post 50 is shown along with the encircling band 60 and a section through the forward extension 61 which illustrates that the forward extension 61 includes an opening which is open downwardly as at 68 to the left and upwardly as at 70 to the right such that the trunion like members 72 can be moved into operating position by first placing them in a vertical orientation, as shown in phantom, and then rotating them clockwise to the operational position as shown in solid.
It is to be understood that since the trunion like member 72 is integral with the upper end portion 62 of securement member 64, once in position, as shown in solid in Figure 6, allows vertical rotation of securement member 64 while preventing removal when securement member 64 is in the downward or latched position.
Reference is now had to Figure 7 wherein it can be seen that the outwardly projecting ears 66 of securement member 64 are inserted into opening 58 and by means of laterally extending latch member 67 are secured in place as explained hereinabove. Also tobe seen in this view is a horizontally projecting male member 74 which is an integral element with latch member 64 and projects into horizontal opening 76 within nosepiece 54 further insuring the stability of latch member 64.
As seen in Figure 8, the securement device can be made as a single piece wherein the nosepiece 80 including the flange 82, opening 84 and pin receiving member 86 also includes an upstanding rigid element 88 having formed thereupon the trunion receiving member gO.
Figure 9, which is a side elevational view of the device of Figure 8, including the locking mechanism 92 further includes a rearwardly projecting post 94 for insertion into a hole 96 in a piece of sheet stock or the like 98.
Figure 10 illustrates how the device of Figure 8 could be mounted upon a horizonal rod 100.
Figure 11 depicts the device of Figure 8 as - secured to an angled rod or other support mechanism 102.
Reference is now had to Figure 12, wherein another embodiment is shown wherein the nasal piece 104 is mounted to the edge of a piece of flat stock 106 as is the hinging member 108 which supports the locking member 110.
Thus as can be seen, the present invention contemplates a simple, easy to use method of displaying and security eyeglasses or the like and yet allows a rapid and easy removal for demonstration to the customer.
