Description

Glasses assistant tool to prevent nose rest marks}

The present invention relates to an auxiliary device for eyeglasses for preventing marks on nose pads, and more particularly, to an auxiliary device for glasses for preventing marks on nose pads, which is freely movable but maintains a strong bonding force through a curved configuration.

In general, glasses are worn on the face to correct or protect eyesight, and are also worn as accessories to protect from dust or strong sunlight or to enhance aesthetics. Conventional spectacles are composed of a lens unit in which a lens is mounted, and a spectacle frame extending from the lens unit and hung on the wearer's ear. At this time, a pair of lens units are provided, and a nose arm for supporting the lens unit according to the center of gravity of the glasses is installed in each of the pair of lens units.

When such glasses are worn for a long time, the nose pad continuously presses the bridge of the nose, causing problems such as sinking of the bridge of the nose and discoloration, and leaving traces of the bridge of the nose on the bridge of the nose. If you take off your glasses, nose pad marks can damage the aesthetics of your face, and after a long time, calluses can form like scars. In order to solve this problem, silicone is inserted into the nose pad (Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2012-0105128 'auxiliary nose support for horn-rimmed glasses') or a band is attached to the nose of the wearer (Korean Publication No. 10-2002-0034028 ' Auxiliary devices such as nose protection bands to prevent pinching of the nose that can occur after wearing glasses have been developed. On the other hand, the present applicant also developed an auxiliary device for glasses to prevent constriction through [Public Patent Publication No. 10-2019-0087223, eyeglass frames with improved comfort and wearing stability for different face shapes]. However, the conventional spectacle frame of the present applicant cannot adjust the position of the pad, so it is difficult to optimize the compression position of the pad to the contour of the wearer's face. In addition, since the conventional eyeglass frame is provided in a state in which the coupling member is fixed to the temple, it is difficult to mass-produce it, and since it must be manufactured to fit each eyeglass temple, there is a problem in that manufacturing cost increases.

Hereinafter, with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4 attached, description will be given of an auxiliary device for glasses (hereinafter, referred to as 'auxiliary device for glasses') for preventing marks on the nose pad according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

The eyeglass assisting device provides wearing of glasses by compressing the glasses with elasticity on the side of the wearer's face, in detail, between the corners of the eyes of the wearer and between the ears of the wearer and around the temple. The glasses on which the glasses auxiliary device is installed may not have a nose arm. In addition, the glasses auxiliary device allows movement in the longitudinal direction of the glasses temple from the glasses temple (leg), and is provided detachably to the glasses temple to optimize the wearer's use environment and can be used regardless of the type of glasses. Of course, the manufacturing cost can be lowered through mass production.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , the eyeglass auxiliary device includes a support body 100 and an elastic support part 200 .

The support body 100 is provided to be fixed to the temple of the eyeglasses, preferably to be fixed to the temple of the eyeglasses through deformation by compression. The material of the support body 100 is preferably a metal that can be deformed by compression, and as shown in FIG. 1, it is preferably composed of a compression portion 110 and a connection portion 120. The crimping portion 110 is preferably in the form of a ring having one side opened having an inner diameter larger than the outer diameter of the spectacle temple so as to cover the spectacle temple. It is preferable that the crimping part 110 has a ring shape with one side opened so as to correspond to all cross-sectional shapes of the spectacle temple as well as the size of the outer diameter of the spectacle temple. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , the compression unit 110 is provided as a pair located in the longitudinal direction of the spectacle temple. The connection part 120 connects between the pair of crimping parts 110 to integrate the support body 100. The connecting portion 120 does not need to wrap around the outer circumferential surface of the spectacle temple, and is made in the form of a straight line connecting the pair of crimping portions 110 to each other. At this time, the connecting portion 120 is formed spaced apart from the spectacle temple, and accordingly, the connecting portion 120 is formed stepwise from the crimping portion 110 toward the wearer's face. As the connecting portion 120 is formed to be spaced apart from the compression portion 110, when the support body 100 is fixed to the spectacle temple, as shown in FIG. 4 between the spectacle temple and the connecting portion 120, the separation space ( S) is formed. On the other hand, as the connection part 120 is formed stepwise from the compression part 110, a stepped surface 130 is formed between the compression part 110 and the connection part 120, and the slide ball 131 is formed on the stepped surface 130. ) is formed. The slide hole 131 is a component for inserting the slide part of the elastic support part 200 to be described later, and the slide hole 131 penetrates the stepped surface 130 and the separation space (S).

The elastic support part 200 has elasticity and adheres to the side of the face of the wearer of glasses, so that glasses can be worn without a nose pad. The elastic support 200 is coupled to the support body 100 and is provided to be movable along the slide ball 131 in the longitudinal direction of the spectacle temple. In this way, the elastic support part 200 is provided so as to be movable in the support body 100, so that the contact pad described later can be pressed to the optimal position on the side of the wearer's face, and can accurately correspond to the center of gravity of the glasses. Thus, the environment for wearing glasses can be optimized. As shown in FIG. 2, the elastic support part 200 includes a slide part 210, a coil part 220, a vertical elastic part 230, a horizontal elastic part 240, a contact pad 250 and , and includes an extension 260.

The slide part 210 of the elastic support part 200 is a part coupled to the support body 100, and is configured to adjust the position of the contact pad 250 while moving in the longitudinal direction of the support body 100. The slide part 210 is provided so that it can be inserted into the separation space (S) through the slide hole (131). At this time, the length of the slide portion 210 is preferably formed longer than the length of the support body (100). In addition, as can be seen from FIG. 2, the cross section of the slide unit 210 preferably has an angular shape. Because, in order to prevent the slide portion 210 from rotating in the slide ball 131, the cross-sectional shape of the slide ball 131 is also more preferably made of an angular shape, as can be seen through FIG. 2. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 1 , the slide unit 210 does not rotate while being coupled to the slide ball 131 . In addition, as shown in FIG. 4 , the slide part 210 is preferably formed convexly curved from the support body 100 toward the side of the wearer's face. As the slide part 210 is formed to be curved, it is possible to firmly maintain the sliding part 210 coupling force in the slide hole 131 and the separation space S by the elastic force of the slide part 210 . If the slide part 210 is not curved but formed only in the form of a straight line, the rotation of the slide part 210 in the slide ball 131 will not occur, but regardless of the wearer's intention, the slide ball 131 In the slide unit 210 will be able to move in the longitudinal direction of the spectacle temple. However, in the present invention, due to the curved configuration of the slide part 210, since the slide part 210 generates bending pressure in the slide hole 131, the slide part 210 is the connection part of the support body 100 It becomes in close contact with (120) and can maintain a strong bonding force. In addition, the curved configuration of the slide part 210, as shown in FIG. 4, since the end of the slide part 210 always faces the temple of the glasses, the sharp end of the slide part 210 is on the wearer's face when wearing glasses. contact does not occur. Accordingly, scratches such as scratches on the wearer's face due to the glasses assisting device do not occur when the glasses are worn.

The coil part 220 of the elastic support part 200 is a part coiled from the end of the slide part 100 toward the spectacle lens side, and is provided by being wound in a circular shape. The coil part 220 serves as a stopper for the movement of the slide part 210 and provides a boundary between the extension part 260 and the slide part 210 . The vertical elastic part 230 is a part that provides elasticity in the vertical direction of the glasses, that is, in the upper and lower directions of the glasses, and is formed in multi-stage bending in the upper and lower directions of the glasses. The horizontal elastic part 240 is a part that provides elasticity in the horizontal direction of the glasses, that is, in the left and right directions of the glasses, and is formed by bending from the vertical elastic part 230 toward the wearer's face. In this way, as the elastic support part 200 provides a complex elastic force due to the horizontal elastic part 240 and the vertical elastic part 230, the wearer can feel a comfortable fit when the contact pad 250 is pressed against the side of the wearer's face. there is. The contact pad 250 is a part that comes into contact with the side of the wearer's face and is coupled to the horizontal elastic part 240 . The material of the contact pad 250 is preferably silicon, but may be provided in various materials. At this time, it is preferable that the contact pad 250 is slidably coupled to the horizontal elastic part 240 . Because, since the contact pad 250 is substantially in close contact with the wearer's face, the contact pad 250 slides on the horizontal elastic part 240 so that it can be easily positioned to fit the shape of the wearer's face. is to do As shown in FIG. 1 , the extension part 260 is formed between the coil part 220 and the vertical elastic part 230, and is formed as a straight line extending from the coil part 220 toward the spectacle lens side. The extension part 260 is configured to allow the operator to easily adjust the position of the contact pad 250 up and down while being bent up and down with respect to the coil part 220 . Since each wearer has a different facial contour and size, in order to optimize the position of the contact pad 250, the operator adjusts the upper and lower positions of the contact pad 250 while bending the extension part 260 in the upward and downward directions. And, the operator can adjust the left and right positions of the contact pad 250 while moving the horizontal elastic part 240 left and right with respect to the vertical elastic part 230. Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 4 , the horizontal elastic part 240 is preferably formed convexly and curved toward the side of the wearer's face. This is because, while the contact pad 250 is in close contact with the side of the face when the eyeglass auxiliary device is worn, both ends of the horizontal elastic part 240 may interfere with the side of the face to prevent wearing the eyeglass auxiliary device. Accordingly, since the horizontal elastic part 240 is formed to be rounded toward the side of the face, contact of both ends of the horizontal elastic part 240 with the side of the face can be prevented.

Hereinafter, the use of the eyeglass auxiliary device having the above configuration will be described.

The user widens the opening of the support body 100 and couples it to surround the spectacle temple. In this case, the glasses may be existing glasses having a nosepiece, or may be new glasses manufactured by omitting the nosepiece. After that, the user presses the crimping part 110 using a tool and fixes it to the spectacle temple. In a state in which the support body 100 is coupled to the spectacle temple, the elastic support portion 200 faces the inner side of the spectacle temple, that is, the wearer's face. After that, the user inserts the slide part 210 of the elastic support part 200 into one slide hole 131 and passes through the separation space S to discharge through the other slide hole 131. Accordingly, the elastic support part 200 is fixed to the support body 100, and as shown in FIG. 4, the curved slide part 210 is in close contact with the connection part 120.

Then, as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B , the user adjusts the position of the contact pad 250 while moving the slide unit 210 in the longitudinal direction of the temple of the glasses. At this time, as the curved slide part 210 moves in a state of being in close contact with the connection part 120, the adjusted position of the slide part 210 can be firmly maintained.

In addition, the user moves the extension part 260, the vertical elastic part 230, and the horizontal elastic part 240, and while moving the contact pad 250 in the horizontal elastic part 240, the position of the contact pad 250 is Adjust more finely in the down, left, and right directions to place it at the center of gravity of the glasses. That is, since the position of the support body 100 may be different in each of the pair of spectacle temples, the wearer can move and extend the sliding part 210 260, the vertical elastic part 230, and the horizontal elastic part ( 240) to adjust the position of the contact pad 250 to provide an optimal glasses wearing environment.

Thereafter, when the user hangs the tip of the eyeglass temple on the ear and wears it, the contact pad 250 of the elastic support 200 protruding toward the side of the user's face presses the side of the wearer's face as shown in FIG. while being compressed. Accordingly, even if the center of gravity of the glasses acts toward the lens side of the glasses, the contact pad 250 compresses the side of the face, so the glasses do not come off.

As described so far, the eyeglass assist device for preventing nose pad marks according to the present invention allows the position of the contact pad 250 to be varied through the movement of the slide part 210, but the slide part 210 is configured to be curved The coupling force of the slide part 210 is strengthened so that the slide part 210 does not move easily. Accordingly, the present invention can optimize the wearing environment of the eyeglass auxiliary device.

Although the present invention has been described in detail with respect to the described embodiments, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications are possible within the scope of the technical spirit of the present invention, and these changes and modifications belong to the appended claims.
