Description

The present invention mainly relates to goggles that can be safely worn by athletes.

Athletes often wear goggles suitable for their sport during exercise.
For example, swimmers use swimming goggles to protect their eyes from water during swimming. For long-distance runners, use sunglasses-type goggles to protect your eyes from the strong sun rays while running.
In the case of motorcycle racers, they wear motorcycle goggles to protect their eyes from wind pressure and dust during practice runs and races.

As described above, goggles have various forms, and goggles suitable for various sports are used. However, the basic form is such that the front part and the band extending from the front part are attached so that the front part can be brought into close contact with the face.
Therefore, the field of view is limited to the front, the side view is obstructed, and at least the side view is difficult to see.

In addition, since the inner surface of the front portion is always in contact with the face, sweat generated during exercise adheres and stains are generated. In the case of the front part of general glasses, when wearing the glasses, the nose pad attached to the center of the front part only touches both sides of the nose, and the other parts do not touch the face. ..
However, when wearing goggles, the inner surface around the front portion comes into contact over a wide area, so that sweat adheres and bacteria are generated, which is unsanitary.

In addition, when the entire circumference of the front part comes into contact with the face, the inside is sealed, so that the inflow and outflow of air is closed and the lens of the front part becomes cloudy. As for the anti-fog of goggles, "sports goggles" according to Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-330990 is known. It goes without saying that the sports goggles have an excellent fit and ventilation efficiency, the switch of the ventilation fan system is easy to operate, and the weight balance is not lost when the goggles are worn. It is structured in a good way.
