Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to eyeglasses, and more particularly to foldable clip-type eyeglasses having a function of attaching to other members.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, the fishing boom has increased the number of people who are fishing, and the number of generations, regardless of age or sex, is expanding. Especially recently, the number of elderly fishing lovers is increasing,
Tools for that purpose have also been developed. By the way, when fishing, it is common for fish to be eaten by food and take fishing hooks, and a new fishing hook must be set each time. Usually, I change fishing hooks,
When attaching it, bring the Tegus to a position near you and perform the work with your fingertips.

However, since the guts and fishing hooks are thin and difficult to see, it is extremely difficult to handle them with a fingertip. Especially for elderly people, it is often difficult to see nearby objects due to presbyopia, etc.
It's not uncommon for an opportunity to be missed. Therefore, although reading glasses are used, it is very troublesome to remove and remount the reading glasses each time. Recently, clip-type glasses that can be freely removed and folded have been developed as the reading glasses.

The clip-type glasses are equipped with a mounting mechanism and are used by being mounted on the collar portion B1 of the hat B worn by an angler as shown in FIG. 8, for example. The clip-type eyeglasses are usually folded under the brim or the like of the hat B, but they are used by pulling them down to the eye positions of the face while opening them if necessary. Therefore, the angler can exchange and attach the fishing hook and the like while clearly looking at the hand through the glasses.

After the replacement or installation of the fishing hook or the like is completed, if the rim 1 of the glasses is picked up with the fingers of the hand and folded up, it will not hinder the viewing at a distance. However, when the clip-type spectacle rim 1 is picked up by hand and pulled down while opening or pushed up and folded, the lens pad 2 often touches the surface of the lens 2 to stain the lens 2.
In the case of fishing, a finger of a hand is inevitably soiled by food and the like, and the finger comes into contact with the lens 2 to inadvertently stain the lens surface. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a state in which the rim 1 is being pinched in an attempt to fold the rim 1 upward in the conventional clip-type eyeglasses, but it can be understood that the finger pad is in direct contact with the lens 2.

[0006]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Based on the above situation,
An object of the present invention is to provide clip-type glasses that do not stain the lens 2 when it is pulled down by hand or folded up by hand.

[0007]

As a result, as a result of earnest research to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention has found that it is possible to fold upward without dirt by providing a grip portion separately, and based on this finding, the present invention Is completed.

That is, the present invention is a foldable clip-type eyeglass having an attachment portion to another member and an eyeglass portion,
It exists in clip-type eyeglasses in which a grip portion is provided on the rim of the eyeglass portion.

Further, the present invention resides in foldable clip-type spectacles whose knob portion is a circular ring body. Further, the present invention also resides in foldable clip-type eyeglasses in which the knob portion is a rotatable circular ring body. Further, it also exists in foldable clip-type glasses in which a decorative member is detachably attached to a circular ring body. Further, the present invention also resides in foldable clip-type spectacles in which the knob portion is a curved body surrounding the outer periphery of the rim.

[0010]

Therefore, according to the present invention, since it is configured as described above, the clip-type glasses are opened or folded without the fingers touching the lens by pinching the grip and pulling down or pushing up the glasses. You can

[0011]

The present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the clip-type glasses of the first embodiment of the present invention. The clip-type glasses are preferably
It is made of linear material, and its material is, for example, metal material such as stainless steel, iron, chromium, copper, nickel, zinc, aluminum, manganese, gold, titanium, cobalt, etc., or some of them. Made of a combination of alloys and plastic materials such as cellulosic celluloid, acetate, polyamide and epoxy.

Clip-type eyeglasses are roughly divided into eyeglass section M.
And a mounting portion T extending therefrom. The attachment portion T is for attaching to another member, and includes, for example, a clip portion for pressing and gripping the collar portion B1 of the cap B,
It is composed of a connecting portion 8 that connects the eyeglass portion M. Further, the clip portion is composed of an upper frame body 4 and a lower frame body 5, and a collar portion B1 such as a hat is inserted into this gap S and firmly pressed and gripped. The clip portion and the connecting portion 8 are rotatably attached via the cylindrical shaft body 6.

Since the connecting portion 8 is fixed to a part of the peripheral surface of the cylindrical shaft body 6, and the end of the lower frame body 5 of the clip portion is inserted into the cylindrical shaft body 6, the cylindrical shaft body 6 The clip body can rotate around the body 6 as a pivot. The cylindrical shaft body 6 is assembled so as to retain a certain frictional force with respect to the clip portion by pressing the cylindrical shaft body 6 from the outside and inserting the narrowed portion 7. On the other hand, the spectacle part M is composed of two rim parts (right rim and left rim) attached to the connecting part 8 and the lens 2 fitted therein.

When folding the clip-type glasses attached to the brim or the like of the hat B, the rim 1 on one side can be folded by pushing it up with the fingers and placed on the lower surface of the brim B1 of the hat B. it can. When using it, you can set it at the eye position by picking it with your fingers and pulling it open while pulling it down. However, as described above, when the lens 2 is folded or opened as described above, the lens 2 is touched by a finger and soiled in the conventional example. In the present invention, in order to solve the above problems, the grip portion 3 is attached at a certain position around the rim 1.

FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment, which is one of the examples, in which a round circular ring body 3A is provided at the lower right portion of the rim 1 as a knob portion. In the clip-type glasses that are attached to the brim or the like of the hat B and folded, the circular ring body 3A can be set at the position of the eyes of the face by grasping and pulling down the circular ring body 3A. On the contrary, if you pick up this circular ring body 3A with your fingers and push it up,
The clip-type glasses can be folded up. By attaching the decorative body 3A1 with letters to the circular ring body 3A, it is possible to give one's initial letter. Although the material of the decorative body 3A1 is not limited, if a slightly elastic material such as a plastic material or an elastomer is adopted, the decorative body 3A1 becomes detachable and can be replaced with other various kinds of decorative bodies.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the brim portion B1 of the hat B (the illustration is omitted because it is the same as FIG. 8) when the clip-type glasses are set in front of the eyes as seen from diagonally above. It is a figure. Although the circular ring that is the knob 3 is being pinched with fingers, it can be folded as shown in FIG. 3 by pushing up from this state (hat is omitted).

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing another second embodiment.
The circular ring body 3A in the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is rotatable, and a round rotatable circular ring body 3B is attached to the lower right portion of the rim 1 to form a knob. In order to make the circular ring body 3B rotatable, the cylindrical body 3 is attached to the rim 1.
B1 is provided, and means for rotatably attaching the shaft 3B2 protruding from the circular link to the cylindrical body 3B1 is used.
Of course, conversely, it is of course possible to provide a shaft on the rim 1 and to provide a cylindrical body on the circular ring body 3B so that both can be rotatably attached. It is the same as the embodiment of FIG. 2 that the clip-type glasses can be opened downward or folded upward by pinching the circular ring body 3B with a finger.
Since the circular ring body 3B rotates, there is a degree of freedom of movement in the portion picked up by the finger, and when pushing up or pulling down, it is possible to perform the operation without difficulty. Also,
It is also the same as in the embodiment of FIG. 1 that the ornament can be mounted in the circular ring.

FIG. 5 shows another third embodiment of the rim 1.
A linear semi-circular body 3C is provided on the lower right side of the to make the knob. If the semicircular body 3C is picked up with a finger and pushed up, the clip-type glasses can be folded upward.

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing another fourth embodiment, but FIG. 1 (first embodiment), FIG. 4 (second embodiment) and FIG. 5 (third embodiment). As described above, when the knob portion is provided so as to protrude from the lower right portion of the rim 1, there is a possibility that it may be caught by something. In this embodiment, the semicircular body 3 which is the knob portion
This is prevented by providing D in a place where it does not interfere with the space between both rims.

FIG. 7 is a diagram showing another fifth embodiment, but in the embodiments described so far, the knob portion 3 is provided at a certain portion of the rim 1, and therefore it is an object to be picked by a finger. The area of the part is relatively small. As a result, it may be difficult to pinch the angler's upper arm at a particular angle. In this embodiment, the knob 3 has a curved body 3 surrounding the outer periphery of the rim.
Since it is E, the picking position extends over a wide range and can be easily picked when the upper arm is at any angle.

Although the present invention has been described above, it is needless to say that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments and various other modifications can be made without departing from the essence thereof. Some examples of modifications of the grip portion are given in the embodiments, but the grip portion is not limited to the shape of the embodiment as long as it can be picked up and pushed up without touching the lens. For example, even if a circular ring body is taken as an example, a circular shape is suitable because it has general versatility, but an elliptical shape, a polygonal shape, or the like is also sufficiently applicable. Further, the grip can be attached at any position around the left or right rim, and it is also useful to provide it on both rims because the angler has left and right handedness. Furthermore, it goes without saying that the clip type eyeglasses of the present invention can be used not only for fishing but also for welding work, ornamental use such as horse racing, and the like.
