Abstract

Each of the two sides of the frame is constituted by a metal cable 7 over at least one part of its length. According to one embodiment, each side is terminated, on the side of the face, by a tubular end-piece 6 which carries one of the elements of the hinge and into which one of the two ends of a stranded metal cable 7 is crimped, the other end of which is crimped in a sleeve 8 connecting it to the rear part of the side terminated by a curvilinear zone intended to interact with the external ear.

Description

MONTURE DE LUNETTES
La mise en place et ltenlèvement répétitifs des montures de lunettes conduisent à un jeu des branches par suite du desserrement progressif des vis de charnières. Pour que la monture soit bien ajustée sur le visage et soit donc efficace et confortable, il faut donc assez souvent resserrer ces vis.
EYEGLASS FRAME
The repetitive installation and removal of spectacle frames leads to a play of the branches as a result of the progressive loosening of the hinge screws. To ensure that the frame fits snugly over the face and is therefore effective and comfortable, these screws must be tightened quite often.

Il existe certes des montures de lunettes qui sont équipées de charnières dites "élastiques", grâce auxquelles un meilleur maintien des branches en bonne position est assuré, même si l'utilisateur n'apporte pas de soin particulier à l'enlèvement et à la mise en place de ses lunettes. Ces montures sont toutefois relativement complexes, donc onéreuses elles sont assez volumineuses ; et leur élasticité n'est que partielle, car elle n'existe que dans un seul sens, à savoir dans le sens du pivotement des branches autour de leurs axes de charnières. There are certainly eyeglass frames which are fitted with so-called "elastic" hinges, thanks to which a better hold of the arms in good position is ensured, even if the user does not take any particular care during removal and placing. in place of his glasses. These frames are however relatively complex, therefore expensive they are quite bulky; and their elasticity is only partial, because it exists only in one direction, namely in the direction of the pivoting of the branches around their hinge axes.

L'invention écarte ces inconvénients. Elle a pour objet l'application nouvelle d'un câble métallique à la constitution de tout ou partie de la longueur de chaque branche. The invention eliminates these drawbacks. Its object is the new application of a metal cable to the constitution of all or part of the length of each branch.

Les charnières habituelles ne sont pas supprimées. Elles relient la face de la monture aux deux branches se terminant chacune; du côté de la face, par un embout tubulaire qui est porteur de l'un des éléments de la charnière, et dans lequel est sertie l'une des deux extrémités d'un câble métallique toronné dont l'autre extrémité est sertie dans un manchon le raccordant à la partie arrière de la branche se terminant par une zone curviligne destinée à coopérer avec le pavillon de l'oreille. The usual hinges are not removed. They connect the face of the frame to the two arms each ending; on the side of the face, by a tubular endpiece which carries one of the elements of the hinge, and in which is crimped one of the two ends of a stranded metal cable whose other end is crimped in a sleeve connecting it to the rear part of the branch ending in a curvilinear zone intended to cooperate with the pinna.

Exception étant faite de sa partie réalisée en câble métallique, chaque branche de la monture peut être constituée en un matériau quelconque, par exemple en métal, en matière plastique ou en une combinaison de ces matériaux. With the exception of its part made of metal cable, each branch of the frame can be made of any material, for example metal, plastic or a combination of these materials.

C'est ainsi que, suivant une forme d'exécution, chaque branche se termine par un fil d'acier qui est raccordé à ltextrémité arrière du câble correspondant par un manchon dans lequel sont serties les extrémités du câble et du fil. Thus, according to one embodiment, each branch ends in a steel wire which is connected to the rear end of the corresponding cable by a sleeve in which the ends of the cable and of the wire are crimped.

Quelles que soient sa forme de réalisation et sa présentation, une monture de lunettes conforme à l'invention possède les qualités des montures à charnières élastiques, en y ajoutant deux effets dûs à la présence du câble entrant dans la constitution de Àa monture, à savoir
- un effet décoratif dû à la simple présence du câble,
- et un effet technique résidant dans le fait qu'en raison de sa nature, le câble est difficilement déformable, ce qui permet d'assurer que, même si la monture n'est pas manipulée avec soin, ses branches conservent leur forme primitive.
Whatever its embodiment and presentation, a spectacle frame according to the invention has the qualities of frames with elastic hinges, by adding two effects due to the presence of the cable used in the construction of the frame, namely
- a decorative effect due to the simple presence of the cable,
- And a technical effect residing in the fact that due to its nature, the cable is difficult to deform, which ensures that, even if the frame is not handled with care, its branches retain their original shape.

L'invention sera bien comprise, d'ailleurs, à l'aide de la description qui suit, en référence au dessin schématique annexé représentant, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, une forme d'exécution de cette monture de lunettes
Figure 1 en est une vue en perspective,
Figure 2 est, à plus grande échelle, une vue en plan de l'une de ses branches, et
Figure 3 en est, à échelle encore agrandie, une vue en coupe suivant 3-3 de figure 2.
The invention will be well understood, moreover, with the aid of the description which follows, with reference to the appended schematic drawing representing, by way of nonlimiting example, an embodiment of this spectacle frame
Figure 1 is a perspective view,
Figure 2 is, on a larger scale, a plan view of one of its branches, and
Figure 3 is, on a still enlarged scale, a sectional view along 3-3 of Figure 2.

Dans ce dessin, (1) désigne la face de la monture, qui est constituée, par exemple, en matière plastique, et avec laquelle viennent de moulage deux bossages extérieurs (2) se terminant par les deux chapes de charnières (3). In this drawing, (1) denotes the face of the frame, which is made, for example, of plastic, and with which two external bosses (2) are molded, ending in the two hinge yokes (3).

Chacune des deux branches associée à cette face est constituée:
- par un embout en matière plastique (4) dont l'une des extrémités forme la tête de charnière (5) et dont l'autre extrémité forme un manchon (6),
- par un - câble métallique toronné (7) dont l'une des extrémités est sertie dans ce manchon,
- par un -manchon en matière plastique (8) dans l'extrémité avant duquel est sertie l'extrémité arrière du câble (7),
- et par un fil d'acier (9) dont l'extrémité avant est sertie dans le manchon (8) et dont la zone arrière est cintrée au profil du pavillon de l'oreille ; ce fil (9) peut être revêtu d'une gaine sur au moins sa zone arriere.
Each of the two branches associated with this face is made up:
- by a plastic end piece (4) one end of which forms the hinge head (5) and the other end of which forms a sleeve (6),
- by a - stranded metal cable (7) one end of which is crimped in this sleeve,
- by a plastic sleeve (8) in the front end of which the rear end of the cable (7) is crimped,
- And by a steel wire (9), the front end of which is crimped into the sleeve (8) and the rear zone of which is bent to the profile of the pinna; this wire (9) can be coated with a sheath on at least its rear zone.

L'invention ne se limite pas, bien entendu, à la seule forme d'exécution de cette monture de lunettes ; elle en embrasse, au contraire, toutes les variantes, quels que soient sa forme et les matériaux utilisés en association avec le câble métallique pour la constitution des branches.  The invention is not limited, of course, to the sole embodiment of this spectacle frame; on the contrary, it embraces all of its variants, whatever its shape and the materials used in association with the wire rope for making up the branches.
