DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a humidifier for dry eye glasses, and more particularly, to dry eye glasses used by so-called dry eye patients who have a feeling of dryness or fatigue in their eyes due to a decrease in tear secretion. The present invention relates to a humidifier that is detachably mounted on a humidifier.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Publication No. Hei 3-20316 and Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Publication No. Hei 4-95015, dry eye glasses are generally humidified so that moisture or chemicals are gradually diffused into a spectacle frame. It is configured with a body attached.
Therefore, since these humidifiers were merely constituted by water retaining members such as block-shaped sponges,
There is a problem that the operability of attaching and detaching to and from the spectacle frame is difficult, and it is difficult to wash and replace the water retaining member.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and has excellent operability in attaching and detaching to and from a spectacle frame, and can easily perform washing and replacement of a water retaining member. An object of the present invention is to provide a humidifier for dry eye glasses that can be used.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is a humidifier for dry eye spectacles removably fitted into a hole formed in a spectacle frame, wherein a water retaining member is provided inside a body having an opening. Then, the above-mentioned object is achieved by removably fitting a water retaining member fixing frame into the opening.

[0005] The container according to the present invention may be in any form, such as a cylinder or a prism, as long as the opening is located inside when the container is mounted in the hole of the spectacle frame. Although it is not, a flat bowl shape is less likely to protrude from the spectacle frame, so that it is excellent in spectacle wearability and a preferable design is obtained.

Further, it is better to hold the water retaining member on the inner surface of the side wall of the vessel and appropriately form a plurality of ribs for supporting the water retaining member fixing frame, as compared with the holding and fixing of the water retaining member. The result is obtained.

[0007] The container is made of synthetic resin,
In addition, by forming a cut in a part of the side of the opening of the side wall to form a resilient divided piece, better results can be obtained in the fitting operation with the eyeglass frame hole and the fitting operation of the water retaining member fixing frame. .

[0008] At the end of the split piece, an outer protruding edge which is further engaged with the inner edge of the spectacle frame hole is formed so as to be naturally released when fitted to the spectacle frame. Better results are obtained in the prevention.

Further, it is better to form a groove for fitting the water retaining member fixing frame on the inner surface of the opening side wall of the vessel in order to prevent the fixing frame from detaching naturally. The result is obtained.

The water retaining member fixing frame is made of, for example, a synthetic resin to have elasticity, so that a better result can be obtained in the operation of inserting into and removing from the opening of the container. .

[0011]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIGS. 1 to 3, reference numeral 10 denotes a synthetic resin container having an opening 11, which is formed of a flat bowl.
As shown in FIG. 7, it is detachably fitted into holes 41 formed on both sides of the spectacle frame 40.

A plurality of ribs 12 are formed on the inner surface of the side wall of the body 10 in an appropriate direction from the bottom of the body 10 toward the opening 11. The side wall 12 a of the rib holds the water retaining member 20 from the periphery. The water retaining member fixing frame 30 is supported by the outer end 12b of the rib.

The container 10 is provided with a plurality of resilient divided pieces 13 which are cut in a part of the side wall on the side of the opening 11 and have elasticity by the elastic action of the divided pieces 13. The fitting operation of the frame 40 with the hole 41 and the fitting operation of the water retaining member fixing frame 30 can be easily performed.

The end of the divided piece 13 has an eyeglass frame 4
Outer protruding edge 13a engaging with inner edge 41a of 0 hole portion 41
Is formed, so that when the body 10 is fitted into the hole 41 of the spectacle frame 40, natural detachment does not occur.

The body 10 has a water retaining member fixing frame 30 on the inner surface of the opening side wall (including the divided piece 13).
Is formed so that the fixing frame 30 does not come off spontaneously.

As the water retaining member 20, any material can be used as long as it can retain moisture and evaporate naturally, for example, felt, paper, sponge, sponge, and the like.

The water retaining member fixing frame 30 in this embodiment is formed in the shape of a steering wheel of an automobile, but if it does not hinder the evaporation of water from the water retaining member 20,
Regardless of the specific form, it may be, for example, a mesh. The fixing frame 30 is made of a synthetic resin and has elasticity so that it can be easily inserted into and removed from the container opening 11.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the humidifier for dry eye glasses according to the present invention accommodates the water retaining member 20 in the container 10 and then fixes the water retaining member to the opening 11 of the container. The frame 30 is detachably fitted therein, and is used by being removably fitted into the hole 41 of the spectacle frame 40 as shown in FIGS. In addition, water (perfume or chemical may be used together with water) may be absorbed in the water retaining member 20 in advance and stored in the container 10, or may be absorbed after being stored in the container 10. .

[0020]

According to the humidifier for dry eye glasses of the present invention, the water retaining member 20 can be securely held in the body 10 and water can be transpirated around the eyes.
It is easy to attach and detach the lens to the eyeglass frame 40, and it is easy to remove the fixing frame 30 and the water retaining member 20 from the container 10, so that the water retaining member can be easily washed and replaced. be able to. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide dry eye glasses that can always humidify in a clean state.
