Definitions
- the present invention relates to an apparatus for cutting additional lenses, either coloured and/or polarized, to be assembled on spectacles.
- spectacles including either coloured and/or polarized lenses.
- these additional lenses can be easily held in pockets, purses and the like.
- the above mentioned additional lenses are made by starting from a standard-size lens which is cut, by using suitable cutting pantographs, so as to fit the contour or profile of the frame thereon they must be assembled.
- the cutting pantographs provided for making the above mentioned additional lenses require that a suitable working bench be used, which must have a suitable size for properly supporting the cutting pantograph, as well as to facilitate the use thereof.
- the additional lenses must be cut with a comparatively high accuracy, since a shape largely different from that of the spectacles frame, in addition to being antiaesthetic, can be moreover dangerous for the user.
- the aim of the present invention is to solve the above mentioned problems, by providing an apparatus for cutting additional lenses, either coloured and/or polarized, provided for being assembled on view-lens spectacles frames, which apparatus has a very reduced size and can be easily operated by unskilled personnel.
- a main object of the present invention is to provide a lens cutting apparatus which can cut additional lenses perfectly fitting to the shape of the view-lens spectacles.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide such a lens cutting apparatus which is very competitive from a mere economic standpoint.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to provide such an additional lens cutting apparatus which is very reliable and safe in operation.
- an apparatus for cutting either coloured and/or polarized additional lenses, to be mounted on view-lens spectacles characterized in that said apparatus comprises a supporting construction, having a bearing shoulder for bearing thereon the outer contour of a spectacles frame, supporting view lenses, a cutting tool being provided, associated with said supporting construction and arranged near said bearing shoulder, on an opposite side from said frame bearing side.
- the cutting tool in particular, can be controllably driven in order to progressively cut that portion of the additional lens, associated with the frame, projecting from said frame, and overlaying the bearing shoulder in the direction of the cutting tool, while said frame is driven with respect to said bearing shoulder so as to cause said bearing shoulder to follow the outer contour of said frame.
- the additional lens cutting apparatus which has been generally indicated by the reference number 1, comprises a supporting construction 2, which is preferably constituted by a base 3 with a vertical extension 4 on the top of which is connected, removably, an envelope 5.
- the envelope or shell 5 defines a bearing shoulder 7, for bearing the contour or profile of the view-lens spectacles frame 7, for which the additional lenses 8 must be made.
- a cutting tool 9 located near the shoulder 6, on the opposite side thereof from the side bearing the frame 7, which tool can be controllably driven so as to progressively cut the additional lens 8, as preliminarily mounted on the frame 7, and projecting by the portion thereof overhanging from the frame 7, beyond the shoulder 6, in the direction of the cutting tool 9.
- the envelope or shell 5 has a substantially cylindrical shape, with a top portion 5a having a diameter smaller than that of the bottom portion thereof.
- the side surface of the portion 5a of the envelope or shell 5 defines the shoulder 6, for the outer contour of the frame 7 and, on the side surface of the top portion 5a of the envelope or casing 5, is provided a slot 10, therethrough is introduced, into the inside of the casing 5, that portion of the additional lens 8 projecting from the contour of the frame 7, so that the projecting portion is cut or removed by the cutting tool 9.
- the cutting tool 9 comprises a milling implement, arranged with its axis in a vertical direction, inside the casing 5, and being driven by a known electric motor, not shown for simplicity, held in the extension 4 of the base 3.
- the cutting end 9a of the cutting tool 9 is of substantially cone-shape and the cutting elements 12 helically extend on the surface of the cone so that the cutting chips deriving from the cutting of the additional lens, are caused to fall along the cutting tool 9 inside the casing 5.
- the latter is connected to the top portion of the base 3, by means of easily removable screws 13, and is preferably made of a transparent material, so as to allow the operator to easily control or monitor the cutting operation performed inside the casing 5.
- the electric motor driving the cutting tool 9 is power supplied through an electric cable 11, entering the base 3 and, on the base 3, is provided an energizing push-button 15.
- the base 3 can also be provided with a clamping element 16, in order to connect the apparatus to a working panel 17.
- the apparatus according to the present invention will operate as follows.
- the additional lenses are provided with a small weight frame 18 and are associated, by the frame 7, with the view-lens spectacles.
- the frame 7 is abutted by its outer contour against the shoulder 6, so as to cause that portion of the additional lens 8 projecting from the outer contour of the frame 7, to enter the slot 10.
- the frame 7 is driven so as to hold it adhering to the shoulder 6, and so as to cause the shoulder 6 to follow the outer contour of the frame 7.
- This displacement of the frame 7 will bring the cutting tool 9 to perform the cutting of that portion of the additional lens 8 projecting from the frame 7, according to a cutting line, reproducing the outer configuration of said frame.
- the additional lenses will be cut in a very accurate manner, with a configuration perfectly mating that of the view-lens spectacle frame, on which the additional lenses must be assembled.
- an additional lens cutting apparatus which has a very reduced size, and which allows to cut additional lenses, either coloured and/or polarized, to be mounted on view-lens spectacles, in a very reduced time and without the need of using skilled personnel.
- the used materials, as well as the contingent size and shapes can be any, depending on requirements.
