Vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein neues Gestell für Kneifer, welches die Augengläser einzeln von oder nach den Augen zu verschieben und aufserdem in beliebige Neigung zu bringen gestattet, ohne dafs die übrigen Theile des Gestelles unter einander verstellt oder verändert zu werden brauchen. Einen anderen Vortheil gewährt diese Erfindung durch die Fähigkeit der Klemmstücke, sich der Form jeder Nase anzupassen, zumal die Klemmstücke auch noch mittelst ihrer Arme einander genähert werden können.The present invention relates to a new frame for pince-nez that holds the eyeglasses to move individually from or to the eyes and also in any inclination allowed to bring without the other parts of the frame shifting from one another or need to be changed. This invention affords another advantage the ability of the clamping pieces to adapt to the shape of each nose, especially as the clamping pieces can also be brought closer to one another by means of their arms.

Das Gestell des Kneifers zeichnet sich ferner dadurch aus, dafs alle seine Theile einfach gebaut sind und daher mit geringem Kostenaufwand hergestellt werden können. Der federnde Bügel ist an seinen Enden nicht wie üblich gebogen, sondern gerade, wodurch die Mühe und Arbeit, welche die Herstellung gebogener Enden verursacht, erspart bleibt.The frame of the pince-nez is also distinguished by the fact that all of its parts are simply built and can therefore be manufactured at low cost. The springy bracket is not like at its ends Usually curved, but straight, eliminating the effort and labor involved in making the curved Causes ends, is spared.

Der Bügel kommt zwischen die Augengläser und die Klemmstücke zu liegen. Diese sind infolge dessen sehr leicht im Stande, das Gewicht des federnden Bügels aufzunehmen und dem Bestreben der übrigen Theile des Klemmers, sich von den Augen zu entfernen, genügend Widerstand entgegenzusetzen.The bracket comes to lie between the eyeglasses and the clamping pieces. These are as a result, very easily able to take up the weight of the resilient bracket and sufficient for the other parts of the clamp to strive to move away from the eyes Oppose resistance.

In beiliegender Zeichnung ist ein mit diesem Gestell versehener Klemmer in acht Figuren dargestellt.In the accompanying drawing, a Klemmer provided with this frame is shown in eight figures shown.

Es bezeichnen 1 und 2 die Augengläser, 3 den Federbügel, 4 die Klemmstücke oder Nasenstege, welche mit einem glatten oder gerippten Polster 5 bekleidet sind, und 6 Arme daran, welche mit einem Schlitz 7 versehen sind.1 and 2 denote the eyeglasses, 3 the spring clip, 4 the clamping pieces or Nose bridges, which are covered with a smooth or ribbed pad 5, and 6 arms thereon, which are provided with a slot 7.

An diesen Nasenstegarmen sind seitliche Plättchen 8 befestigt, welche auf der einen Seite mit einem schrägen Ausschnitt 9 und auf der anderen Seite mit einem längs des Plättchens sich hinziehenden breiten Ausschnitt 10 versehen sind (Fig. 8). Bei Herstellung der Ausschnitte entsteht die Oeffhung 11. Diese Plättchen werden vorzugsweise aus Tafelblech hergestellt, und die Ausschnitte 9 dienen zur Aufnahme der Enden des Federbügels, während die Ausschnitte 10 die Nasenstegarme aufnehmen; alle diese Theile sind durch einen Schraubenstift 12 mit einander verbunden, welcher durch die Nasenstegarme, die Oeffhung 11 des Plättchens und durch die Enden des Federbügels hindurchgeht.Lateral plates 8 are attached to these nasal bridge arms, which on the one hand Side with an inclined cutout 9 and on the other side with one along the plate extending wide cutout 10 are provided (Fig. 8). When making the Cutouts create the opening 11. These plates are preferably made from sheet metal made, and the cutouts 9 serve to receive the ends of the spring clip while the cutouts 10 receive the nose bridge arms; all these parts are through one Screw pin 12 connected to each other, which through the nose bridge arms, the opening 11 of the plate and through the ends of the spring clip.

Je nach dem Abstande des Auges von dem oberen Theile des Nasenrückens wird es in gewissen Fällen nöthig, die Klemmstücke tiefer zu setzen; der Federbügel läfst jedoch eine solche Versetzung insofern nicht immer zu, als er gewöhnlich an dem oberen Theile des Nasenrückens anstöfst und dadurch die Augengläser in einen unvorteilhaften Abstand von den Augen bringt. Dieser Unannehmlichkeit hat man dadurch vorzubeugen versucht, dafs man dem Federbügel eine zur senkrechten Ebene der Augengläser geneigte Lage gab, entweder dadurch, dafs man den Federbügel selbst abbog oder aber die die Augengläser tragenden Arme mit Ausschnitten, Schlitzen oder Führungen, versah, welche den Federbügel in die gewünschte geneigte Stellung zu bringen gestatteten. Beide Arten sind jedoch mit Mängeln behaftet, da bei der ersteren das Abbiegen des Federbügels viel Mühe verursacht und auch eine Gewichtszunahme des Klemmers bedingt, während beiDepending on the distance of the eye from the upper part of the bridge of the nose, it becomes in certain degrees In some cases it is necessary to set the clamping pieces lower; the spring clip, however, runs one Dislocation not always in so far as it is usually on the upper part of the bridge of the nose and thereby the eyeglasses at an unfavorable distance from the Eyes. Attempts have been made to prevent this inconvenience by doing gave the spring clip a position inclined to the vertical plane of the eyeglasses, either by bending off the spring clip itself or the arms carrying the glasses with cutouts, slots or guides, which the spring clip into the desired allowed to bring an inclined position. However, both types are flawed because in the former, the bending of the spring clip causes much trouble and also an increase in weight of the clamp, while at

Claims

The second method mentioned requires a completely new support piece with slots or guides is to enable the spring clip to be adjusted at different angles to the axis of the eyeglasses.

When using the independently arranged C-shaped plate on the present one Frame you can use the spring clip and the clamping pieces in any desired inclined position allow one another to be accepted by only having to establish the mutual relations between to change sections 9 and 10. Because the spring clip doesn't get bent If necessary, it is not necessary to make it of stretchable material; rather he can consist of hard resilient material.

For the nasal bridge arms, however, stretchable material may be used with advantage; these can then, if it appears desirable, e.g. B. between the E-shaped plates and the clamping pieces can be bent as desired without thereby changing in the location and direction of their slots and the way in which the glasses are attached needs.

In order to connect the eyeglasses to the frame, the pieces 13 carrying them are with contact jaws 14. and each with a fork 15 provided, which is attached to the eyeglass in the usual way. The other The end of the support pieces 13 is square on the outside and with a thread 16 on the inside (Fig. 8), which serves as a nut for the head screw 17. Eye-glass support arms together with However, accessories have long been in use and are well known; the present eyeglass cantilever arms but differ from the known designs in that the side flanges that hold and guide the spring clip come here in omission. The support pieces are centered here in slots 7 of the nose bridge arms carrying the spring clip Screws 17 can be fixed at will, so that the eyeglasses are independent of one another can be attached closer or farther from the eye as desired.

From FIG. 7 it can be seen that the screw 17 passes through the slot 7 into the pin 13 of the eye-glass support arm and that from its head an obliquely slit ring 18, as well as a disc 19 lying on this is pressed against the nose bridge arm. Of the Ring 18 has sharp corners at its slot location (FIG. 8).

This frame makes it possible for each eyeglass to be placed independently of the other within the slot 7 the nasal bridge arm in the line of sight, d. H. to move from and to the eye; it allows the eyeglasses furthermore, by means of their support arms and the screw 17, a rotary movement to be carried out within the slot 7, so that the eyeglasses can be inclined in any desired position relative to the line of sight (or to the pupil axis) can attach.

After each eye-glass has received its specific position, both are through Tightening the washers 17 is finally connected to the nose bridge arms. As a result of getting dressed The disks 1, 9, the protruding points or corners are forced onto the disk 17 to press the rings 18 both against itself and against the nose bridge arms, whereby the position of the eyeglasses remains fixed as long as the slit ring does not is solved again.

It is clear that the nasal bridge arms, as well as their slits, can be made as long as desired can. The position of the side plates on the nose bridge arms can also be changed as desired without affecting the position of the glasses.

PateNT-A ν Sayings:

ι. A pince-nez whose eye glasses are not only shifted forwards and backwards in the line of sight, but rather can also be brought into any inclined position to the line of sight by turning and can be determined in any position, namely because the two clamping pieces (4) are connected to one another by the pucker spring are connected and each have a vertically protruding arm with a slot through which the screw 17 or some other means of securing the eyeglass passes through it.

2. A pince-nez of the type characterized by claim 1, in which between the clamping spring (3) connecting the nose bridge arms (6) and the arms (6) exchangeable plates (8) with intersecting cutouts (9 and 10) are attached, so 'that the resilient bracket by fitting the cutouts the desired inclination can be given to the nasal bridge arms.
