Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is detachably attached to a humidifier for dry eye glasses, and more specifically, to eyeglasses for dry eye used by so-called dry eye patients who feel dryness and fatigue due to decreased tear secretion. It relates to humidifiers.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, dry eye glasses are generally configured by attaching a humidifying body that gradually diffuses moisture and chemicals to a spectacle frame as disclosed in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Nos. 3-20316 and 4-95015. Has been. Thus, since these humidifiers are merely constituted by a water retaining member such as a block-like sponge, it is difficult to attach and detach the eyeglass frame, and it is difficult to clean and replace the water retaining member. There was a problem.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The present invention has been made in view of the conventional problems as described above, and provides a humidifier for dry eye glasses that has excellent operability for attaching to and detaching from a spectacle frame and can easily clean and replace a water retaining member. The purpose is to do.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention relates to a humidifying device for dry eye glasses detachably fitted in a hole portion that is Katachi設the eyeglass frame, have a opening, and part of its side wall At a opening side After the water retaining member is accommodated inside the synthetic resin container that is an elastic split piece, the above object is achieved by detachably fitting the water retaining member fixing frame into the opening.
[0005]
As long as the opening in the eyeglass frame is mounted on the inner side of the container in the present invention, the specific form is not limited to a cylindrical shape, a rectangular tube shape, etc. The flat bowl shape is less likely to protrude from the spectacle frame, so that it is excellent in spectacle wearability and is preferable in design.
[0006]
In addition, it is better to hold the water retaining member on the inner surface of the side wall of the vessel body and to appropriately form a number of ribs for receiving and supporting the water retaining member fixing frame. It is done.
[0007]
Further, the device body is it made of a synthetic resin, and scored on a part of the opening side of the side wall thereof, since a divided piece having elasticity, fit and water retention member with the eyeglass frame hole A better result can be obtained in the fitting operation of the fixing frame.
[0008]
Thus, an outer protruding edge that is engaged with the inner edge of the eyeglass frame hole is formed at the end of the divided piece to prevent natural separation when the eyeglass frame is fitted. Gives better results.
[0009]
In addition, it is preferable to form a groove for fitting the water retaining member fixing frame on the inner surface of the opening side wall of the vessel body in order to prevent natural separation of the fixing frame. It is done.
[0010]
Moreover, the said water retaining member fixing frame is made of, for example, a synthetic resin, so that it has elasticity, so that better results can be obtained in the fitting operation and the detaching operation to the body opening.
[0011]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
[0012]
1 to 3, reference numeral 10 denotes a synthetic resin container having an opening 11, which is formed of a flat bowl-shaped body, and is formed on both sides of the spectacle frame 40 as shown in FIGS. The hole 41 is detachably fitted.
[0013]
A number of ribs 12 are appropriately formed on the inner surface of the side wall of the container body 10 from the inner bottom of the container body 10 toward the opening 11, and the water retaining member 20 is held from the periphery by the side wall 12 a of the rib. The water retaining member fixing frame 30 is received and supported by the outer end portion 12b.
[0014]
In addition, the container body 10 is provided with a plurality of split pieces 13 having elasticity by being cut at a part of the side wall of the opening portion 11 side. The fitting operation with the hole 41 and the fitting operation of the water retaining member fixing frame 30 can be easily performed.
[0015]
Further, an outer projecting edge 13 a that engages with the inner edge 41 a of the hole 41 of the spectacle frame 40 is formed at the end of the divided piece 13, and the body 10 is formed in the hole 41 of the spectacle frame 40. When fitted, natural separation does not occur.
[0016]
Further, the container body 10 is formed with grooves 14 for fitting the water retaining member fixing frame 30 on the inner surface of the opening side wall (including the divided pieces 13). The natural withdrawal of will not occur.
[0017]
The water-retaining member 20 may be any material, such as felt, paper, sponge, sponge, etc., as long as it retains moisture and can evaporate naturally.
[0018]
Although the water retaining member fixing frame 30 in this embodiment is formed in the shape of a handle of an automobile, any specific form may be used as long as it does not interfere with moisture evaporation from the water retaining member 20. For example, a mesh body may be used. The fixing frame 30 is made of synthetic resin and has elasticity, so that the fixing frame 30 can be easily inserted into and removed from the vessel opening 11.
[0019]
As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the humidifier for dry eye glasses of the present invention contains the water retaining member 20 in the container 10, and then holds the water retaining member fixing frame in the container opening 11. 30 is detachably fitted, and is used by being detachably fitted into the hole 41 of the spectacle frame 40 as shown in FIGS. It should be noted that moisture (a fragrance or medicine may be used in combination with water) may be absorbed in the water retaining member 20 in advance and accommodated in the container 10 or may be absorbed after being accommodated in the container 10. .
[0020]
【The invention's effect】
If the humidifier for dry eye glasses of the present invention is used, the water retaining member 20 can be reliably held in the vessel body 10 and moisture can be given to the surroundings of the eye, as well as the eyeglass frame 40 of the vessel body 10. Since the fitting frame 30 and the water retaining member 20 can be easily detached from the container body 10, the water retaining member can be easily washed and replaced. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide dry eye glasses that can be humidified always in a clean state.
