Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] The folded state becomes thinner like a card,
Even if you put it in a shirt or clothes pocket, the pocket does not swell, and it can be stored in a thin space such as a wallet, providing foldable glasses that are convenient to carry. [Structure] A thin plate-shaped front 1 into which a lens 2 is fitted is foldable by being connected by a hinge 31 at the center, and a temple 4 is also foldable consisting of a front temple 5 and a rear temple 6. When folded, the rear temple 6 rides on the upper edge 1a of the front 1.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to folding glasses.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 Since eyeglasses, especially reading glasses and sunglasses, are highly required to be carried, various types of folding eyeglasses have been proposed and put into practical use. By the way, in most of the conventional folding glasses, the front is folded so that the lenses face each other, and the temple is also folded in two in accordance with this. In other words, many of them are "round" folds and have been put to practical use.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In this way, the “round” fold reduces the overall length, making it convenient to carry in small bags such as bags. However, since it is thick in the folded state, there is a problem that the pocket expands when it is put in a pocket such as a shirt or clothes. In addition, various types of cards are popular nowadays, and there are spaces for storing cards in wallets, commuter pass cases, etc., but it is impossible to store a folded ophthalmoscope in such a space.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and its purpose is to make the folded state thin like a card and to expand the pocket even when it is put in a pocket such as a shirt or clothes. First, it is to provide folding glasses that can be stored in a thin space such as a wallet and are convenient to carry.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve such an object, the folding spectacles of the present invention include a thin plate-shaped front end in which a lens is fitted, which is foldable by being hinged at the center, and a temple which is also hinged to the front. It is made up of a front temple and a rear temple that is hinged to the front temple, so that it can be folded so that the rear temple rides on the top edge of the front.

[0006]

[Action]

 That is, although the front of the spectacles is horizontally long and substantially rectangular, the front of the present invention has a thin plate shape and is folded by being connected by a hinge, so that the length of the front is halved and the width is doubled. Become. Then, the temple is also folded and the rear temple rides on the upper edge of the front, so that the temple is not thickened even when it is folded, and the folded state becomes thin like a card. Therefore, even if it is put in a shirt or clothes pocket, the pocket does not swell, and the folding glasses can be stored in a thin space such as a wallet, which is very convenient to carry.

[0007]

【Example】

 The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings. 1 and 2, the front 1 formed of a metal such as a titanium alloy or a synthetic resin is a thin rectangular plate having a thickness of 3 mm, a length of 135 mm, and a width of 27 mm. A pair of lenses 2 are fitted. The front 1 is connected at its center by a first hinge 31, and can be folded so that the upper edge 1a of the front 1 approaches each other.

The temple 4 is composed of a front temple 5 and a rear temple 6, the front temple 5 is connected to the front 1 by a second hinge 32, and the front temple 5 and the rear temple 6 are connected by a third hinge 33. ing. Therefore, the temple 4 can be folded so that the front temple 5 and the rear temple 6 overlap each other. And, a silicon modern 61 is attached to the rear end of the rear temple 6.

Here, as shown in FIG. 1, the front temple 5 has its front portion bent in an arc shape and extends upward for a while, and then extends linearly in the horizontal direction. The rear temple 6 also extends in a straight line in the horizontal direction following the front temple 5, and the level of the lower edge 4a of the temple 4 is equal to the upper edge 1a of the front 1.

When folding the spectacles having such a structure, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, first, the front temple 5 and the rear temple 6 are overlapped by using the second hinge 32 and the third hinge 33. However, the rear temple 6 rides on the upper edge 1a of the front 1 because the level of the lower edge 4a of the temple 4 is equal to the upper edge 1a of the front 1. In other words, since the temple 4 can be folded on the front 1, the thickness can be reduced by that amount even though the front temple 5 and the rear temple 6 overlap each other. Then, when the front 1 is folded using the first hinge 31, it becomes a card shape as shown in FIG. Therefore, it can be carried in the same manner as various plastic cards, and convenience is significantly improved. Then, when it is used, if the reverse operation is performed, the state shown in FIG. 1 is obtained.

[0011]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above, the folding eyeglasses of the present invention can be folded into a card shape, so that the pockets do not expand even when put in a pocket such as a shirt or clothes, and can be stored in a thin space such as a wallet. It is possible, and it is possible to make the foldable glasses with excellent convenience.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] 1. A thin plate-shaped front in which a lens is fitted is hinged at a center to be foldable, and a temple is also connected to a front temple hinged to the front and a front temple hinged to the front temple. Foldable glasses, which are made of temples and can be folded, and when the temples are folded, the rear temples ride on the upper edge of the front.
