The frame side may include a portion of the lens housing that holds a lens (right or left lens) in a full frame or semi-frameless frame. There can be two frame sides for each lens housing. However, in the completely frameless frame, there is no frame edge. As used herein, "lens housing" may refer to a portion of a frame or adapted to support or hold a first lens and a second lens in place (preferably stably supported or held in place). The lens housing can also be attached to the frame portion to which the temples are attached. The lens housing can include any component or material that is adapted to support the lens, including, for example, screws, nylon filaments, frame edges, and the like, or any combination thereof. The lens housing can contain any material, including metal or plastic. The lens housing can be included in any type of frame design (including fully framed, semi-frameless, and frameless). In some embodiments I, the lens housing may also include a bridge, such as when the lens housing includes a single component or two components that support both the first lens and the second lens.

That is, the two components can be temporarily brought into contact simply by physical contact with each other. If current can flow from one component to another, the two components are "electrically switched" or "electrically connected". That is, the two components do not have to be in direct contact to allow current to flow directly from one component to the other component. There may be any number of other electrically conductive materials and components interposed between the electrical components, requiring: two components to flow between the two components. | Current can be used in this article, "conductive path" current) from one point to another, electrons (ie, components or more than one component.

For example, Q "first temple The reference may include a temple on the left or right side of the wearer's head. As used herein, the term "approximation" may refer to positive or negative 1% (including limits). Therefore, the phrase "approximate" 1〇mm" is understood to mean from 9 mm to 11 mm (including limits). Electrical Action Frames Containing Spring Mechanisms Some embodiments of the electro-acting eyeglass frames provided herein can include a spring mechanism. The spring-loading mechanism can be placed, for example, on the frame of the glasses (such as on the temples, embedded in the temples, coupled to the temples and the lens housing, etc.) and can be provided with a mirror. 160385.doc -13- 201234070 The foot member exerts a force of pressure in a direction substantially perpendicular to the wearer's head or in the direction of the wearer's head. In this way, the eyeglass frame can be fit tightly on the head of the person regardless of size or shape. This provides a more comfortable fit and reduces the risk of lens displacement or accidental fall from the wearer's head. In addition, the use of a spring mechanism for the electromechanical frame can provide power savings by cutting off electrical connections between the electronics located on the lens housing (or in the lens) and the power source located on the temples when the frame is not in use. Additional benefits. That is, for example, by moving the temple of the frame away from the lens housing, the spring mechanism can separate the two conductors so that current cannot flow from the temple to the lens housing (or any other separation). The use of springs (e.g., 'spring hinges) for non-electroactive lens systems is well known in the art. Examples of such spring hinges are provided in the following references, which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety:

In addition to some of the benefits provided by the spring mechanism (including the benefits mentioned above, such as the tighter fit and the ability to save power by disconnecting the components) 160385.doc -14 - 201234070 There are other considerations that the inventors have identified in connection with the use of such devices in electrical action frames. For example, an electro-acting lens frame may need to provide an electrical path from the temple to the lens housing that is not used on a conventional (i.e., non-electro-active frame) frame. However, the use of spring n-pieces (such as spring hinges) in the frame of the electro-acting lens allows the temples to form an angle of less than 90 degrees with the lens (even when the frame is in use). This can cause the electronics on the temples to be connected to the benefit or power supply and to the lens housing (or the lens itself).

Figure 丨 illustrates this situation. As shown in FIG. 1, the typical position of the temple relative to the lens housing (eg, when the frame is worn) is the first temple 1〇1 and/or the second mirror 1〇2 and the lens housing H)3 Approximate to form a 9G degree angle. In practice, this angle can be said to be slightly smaller or larger (depending on factors such as the size and shape of the wearer's head, the size of the frame, etc.). In this position 詈φ, y, the conductive path connects the components on the first temple 101 or the second temple 1G2 to the components disposed on the lens housing 1G3. However, the use of an elastic mechanism that exerts a force in the direction of the wearer's head can cause the angle 104 to be less than 9 degrees (eg, the angle can be 85 degrees or less), which can result in the first mirror. The separation in the conductive path between the foot 101 or the second temple 1〇2 and the lens housing 〇3. For example, if a portion of the conductive path from the first temple (8) to the lens housing 103 includes electrical contacts at respective ends of each of the components (such that, for example, when the first temple 101 When the lens housing 103 is worn, there is a direct connection between the electrical contacts, and the connection can be broken due to the reduction of the angle i 〇 4 between the components. As mentioned above, the use of springs or similar devices in the lens frame to provide 160385.doc • 15· 201234070 continuous pressure is likely to form this 箄sn m has not been used for the electrical action frame. Spring-devices An electrical action frame comprising a magazine mechanism is provided herein. As used herein, this can be used to store elastic objects of mechanical energy. The elastomeric mechanism may comprise an elastomeric and/or other component, such as a conductor disposed within or in parallel with the elastomeric crystal (or within the coil of the disc). :: When shrinking or stretching, the 'bounce mechanism' can apply a force to the component of the device (such as: electricity: with the frame of the frame or the lens housing). - When the device (e.g., an electro-mechanical frame) is worn, the first can provide a continuation (variable or erratic) in a direction substantially perpendicular to the wearer's head. In some embodiments, the first-elastic mechanism can also be electrically conductive and/or electrically connected to the conductor using the - (or its components) or lightly connected or disposed therein. In some embodiments, the conductor can be embedded within the spring mechanism, engaged with and/or surrounded by the spring mechanism. As used herein, the spring mechanism can also include additional components, such as hinges that can be coupled to the temples and/or lenses. The spring mechanism can comprise any suitable material, including metal 'plastics or a combination thereof. Figures 2(a) and 2(b) show two examples of an electro-mechanical frame containing a spring mechanism. A first device is provided that includes a frame that includes a lens housing adapted to support a first lens and a second lens. The first device also includes a first temple movably coupled to the lens housing and a second temple movably constrained to the lens housing. That is, the first and second temples can be coupled to the lens housing such that each lens can be moved relative to the lens housing with respect to 160385.doc -16 - 201234070 (eg, The 1st corner 1 04) can be changed. In this regard, the lens housing and the temples can be coupled in any suitable manner that allows for this movement, by way of example, including the use of hinges or screws. The first device further includes a first spring mechanism coupled to the first temple and the lens housing. As defined above, this does not require the magazine mechanism to be permanently attached to the two components. For example, the spring mechanism can be fixed to the first temple and within the specific distance between the first temple and the lens housing (or components thereof, such as the end segments) (ie, the component When the angle 104 is approximately 90 degrees (eg, within 5 degrees of deviation) or some other suitable value), a force is applied to the outside of the lens & When the first temple and the outer lens housing are sufficiently moved, the 5 hoist spring mechanism can no longer physically contact the lens housing. An example of this situation is provided in Figure 2(b) and will be described in detail below. Although so defined above, it is worth noting that the mechanism is not necessarily in the form of a slap, but may take any suitable shape and may be located in any suitable location on the frame. As will be described below, such locations may include placement on the lens housing or in the lens housing and/or placement on the first temple or into the first temple. An example of a spring mechanism that is incorporated into the first temple is shown in Figure 2 (4), which will be described below. The fifth component also includes a first conductive path from the first leg to the lens housing for at least one position of the first temple relative to the frame. ', ρ female defined above 'electronic (in the form of current) can be dispersed (that is, 'conducted) from the first mirror to the lens housing or can be separated from the first temple 160385.doc 201234070 (also That is, conductive) to the lens housing. In this case, the first device can, for example, comprise an electrical action frame having electronic components (such as a power source, controller, sensing mechanism, etc.) on the first temple and disposed on the lens Other electronic components on the housing and/or disposed on (or within) the lens itself (such as those described below). As defined above, the first conductive path can be provided by any suitable component. For example, the conductive path can include the first temple, the elastic body, and the lens housing itself (ie, each can include a conductive material), or some or all of the components can include forming the conductive A conductive component of one of the paths disposed on (or embedded within) the components. As indicated above, the conductive path need not always be present, but may be provided for at least one location of the first temple relative to the lens housing. Referring again to Figure 1, the first temple 1〇1 can be moved relative to the lens housing 1〇3 to a plurality of positions, each of which can have a different angle of 1〇4. Preferably, the first conductive path is provided when the first temple and the lens housing are in a position corresponding to the first device being worn by a wearer. In some embodiments, this position may have a = corresponding to approximately 9 degrees. However, as described above, the embodiment is not limited thereto and the angle may depend on many factors. It should also be understood that the conductive path can be provided for a plurality of locations. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the first conductive path is provided by the first spring mechanism. That is, for example, the first spring mechanism can provide some (or all) of the first conductive path between the first temple and the lens housing. This may be due in part to the fact that the spring mechanism can be located (or substantially) between the first temple and the lens housing 160385.doc 201234070. In one case, in the case of a φ two real target, the first spring mechanism includes a spring in which the first and second guiding circuits are pinched. The (four) machine & for the coil spring ', but may include springs that do not have to contain the elastic material. History looks at H2r, B, and immediately stores any of the mechanical energy, and when it comes to (4), it is an example of non-companion. As mentioned above, the inclusion of any guide:: at least part of the two #, the work can be covered. (4) The ground (4) system contains metal. The use of the elastomeric mechanism to form one of the conductive paths A provides an advantage of reducing the number of couplings to the frame, in the number of embodiments. This " Using a spring mechanism to act as a conductive circuit 彳Λ n : a way by which a conductive path can be selectively provided (:::; an electrical path can be used when the first device is being worn, available: when not in use). In other words, the elastic mechanism can be permanently spliced (ie, firmly, such as via the use of a screw, adhesive, etc.) to only (four) - the temple foot and selectively lightly connected (ie, temporarily, such as The physical contact c does not adhere to, screw, or the like to the lens housing, 0 such that some (but not all) of the first temple is opposite to the lens housing. The mechanism is in physical contact with the lens housing. In embodiments where the first spring mechanism provides some or all of the conductive path, the conductive circuit may not be provided in a position where the first spring mechanism no longer contacts the lens housing This may provide the first temple and the lens One of the selectively available conductive paths between the shells. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the first spring mechanism includes a spring and a first conductor. Any suitable material and can have any suitable shape. There is no physical contact between the spring and the conductor. 160385.doc 19-201234070. For example, in some embodiments, the spring is disposed substantially around the first conductor. "Substantially surrounding" means, for example, that the spring may surround or surround some (but not necessarily all) of the conductor. This is illustrated in the exemplary embodiment shown in Figure 2(a). For example, if the spring includes a disk, the conductor can be located within the coil of the spring. In some embodiments, the conductor can be disposed within the spring (e.g., embedded in the spring) such that the spring can comprise both the conductor (or more than one conductor) and an insulating material. The insulating material electrically insulates the conductors within the spring such that a plurality of conductive paths are provided by the spring (i.e., via the embedded conductors). This allows multiple signals to be transmitted from the first temple to the lens housing, allowing transmission of signals, power, and the like. In some embodiments, the spring is coupled to the first conductor. That is, the spring can be attached to the conductor or placed on the conductor. Each of the springs and/or the conductors can include a portion of the electrically conductive path. In some embodiments, the spring is disposed along one side of the first conductor. "Along the side" means that the spring and the conductor are substantially parallel and spaced no more than 3 cm apart at any given point. Preferably, the spring is no more than 1 cm from the conductor such that the spring mechanism can have a small profile (i.e., for aesthetic reasons). Again, embodiments are not limited thereto, and the conductor can be located in any suitable location. Thus, in some embodiments, the first conductive path or a portion thereof can be provided by the first conductor. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the first conductive path further comprises a pogo pin. A "spring pin" can include a device that establishes a (usually temporary) connection between two components. An illustration of an embodiment utilizing an elastomeric needle is shown in Figures 3 through 12,034, pp. The bullet can be in the temple; but the embodiment is not limited thereto, and the pogo pin can be located therein, such as on the first temple, on the lens housing (or in the middle) And/or consuming to the first-elastic mechanism. In the = real::, the first device further includes a second magazine mechanism, and the "-elastic mechanism" can move the spring pins to the lens housing for the plurality of positions of the first temple. The second spring mechanism is configured to provide a force for maintaining a conductive path between the first temple and the lens housing for the position of the first temple relative to the lens housing. That is, 'the distance between the first and the temples including the electrical contacts of the lens housing increases (i.e., as the angle in the figure); small) 'the second spring mechanism can lengthen the conductive path ( That is, the ball is made to maintain electrical contact (and thereby maintain a conductive path). When the angle is increased, the lens housing and/or the first temple can apply a force to the second magazine. ^ The impeachment mechanism contracts (ie, the = contraction), but still maintains the electrical contact. By the supply of force in the bombs to position the mirror for some (but not the whole lion = mirror shell) The ability of the electrical contacts to be (or equivalently pressed against) the conductive path between the first mirror housings. Haidi - the temple and the lens: in the machine - in the first device as described above, the first -==: * hinge. That is, the spring mechanism can contain - (four) wide to allow the two The relative movement between the components is also 160385.doc 21 · 201234070. The spring can be coupled to either or both of the lens housing and the first temple, and can provide a movement of the first temple One of a plurality of positions and/or a force to press the first temple against the wearer's head. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, an electronic device module is further provided The electronic device module can, for example, comprise at least one of a power source, a controller and a sensing module. In some embodiments, the use of the electronics module provides for easier electrical production. The ability of the glasses, because the electronics can be manufactured separately and inserted into a plurality of frame designs. The electronics module can be coupled to the first temple or in another suitable location (note that some embodiments may The electronic device module or component thereof is disposed, for example, in the For example, the electronic device module can be embedded in or substantially inserted into the first temple (as described below with reference to the exemplary embodiments shown in FIGS. 3-10). In some embodiments, the first conductive path can be electrically connected to the electronic device module. That is, a conductive path from the electronic device module to the lens housing can be provided, and the conductive path can include many components. 'such as the first spring mechanism or its components.

It is also contemplated that the embodiment of the electro-optical path that provides the ^, f, ^ conductive path from the lens housing to the "---------------------------------------------- m - and Wang Hao, the advantages may include that the electronic component of the first device does not operate when the device is not in use (eg, disposed on the lens housing = will not be electrically connected to the first A mirrored foot 上 2 τ electricity on the electronic components on the foot of the foot) related to power saving and efficiency 〇 in some embodiments, When the conductive path of the younger one is in the first position at the first temple, the first leg of the ray is transmitted to the lens housing and the = conductive path is at the first temple In a second position, when the electric arm is not transmitted to the lens housing, the lens housing includes a first electrical contact and the first spring mechanism is in the first position The first electrical contact forms a Φ 4* j. . electrical connection. In some embodiments, the second spring mechanism is not electrically connected to the first electrical contact. In the embodiment in which the first conductive path or a portion thereof includes the elastic mechanism (or the spring mechanism j assembly), the spring mechanism can be directly connected (ie, 'physical contact') to the lens housing An isoelectric junction, which can provide at least a conductive path provided by the material mechanism by contacting and not contacting the electrical contacts on the lens housing. 160385.doc - 23-201234070 u: - in some embodiments, 'in the first device as described above, the first bomb The mechanism is pure to the first lens. This may be, for example, the case when the first device 2 comprises a frameless lens frame. The spring mechanism may be such that by applying a force such that the first temple is worn by the wearer The head applies pressure to provide some or the same functionality as in the full frame or semi-frameless embodiment. Even when the frameless implementation is performed (such as when the screw wire (4) is attached to the lens), a spring mechanism is also coupled to the lens housing. The lens includes a first electrical contact and the first spring contact is formed with the first electrical contact when the frame is in the first position Electrical connection: !!, the elastic mechanism can form a part of the conductive path, the conductive a. The mirror foot is driven to the lens (and can be in the lens: what electronics are powered and/or controlled). As mentioned above, the spring mechanism can be directly connected to the lens and thereby can be directly electrically connected to one of the electrical contacts on the lens. The embossing mechanism itself may comprise a conductive component that can form a connection - this - = conductive elastomer. In these embodiments, the bullet;; = is attached to the lens, but the conductive member of the spring mechanism is optionally = ground contacts the electrical contacts of the lens. In some embodiments, the magazine mechanism is housed in the first temple in the _th device as described above.

That is, 'no other conductors are placed between the U-electron π. module and the electrical connector. Some exemplary embodiments are illustrated in Figures 3 to 10. In two embodiments, in the A conductive path conducts electricity from the first temple to the lens housing when the first temple is in the first position and the first conductive path is not in the second position when the first mirror is in the second position In the case where electricity is conducted from the first temple to the lens housing, The first position and the first spring mechanism of the second position maintain the electrical contact with the electronic device module, which may be, for example, disposed on the first mirror for the spring mechanism In the case of the embodiment of the foot, as the first temple (for example, by the spring mechanism) moves from the first position (in which the spring mechanism is electrically connectable to the lens housing) In two positions, the electrical contact between the first spring mechanism and the lens housing can be severed (eg, the lens housing may not be physically connected). This provides the selectivity discussed above. Conductive Paths. Embodiments may provide the advantage that only one electrical contact (i.e., only one electrical switch) may be required to connect/disconnect to activate and deactivate the electronics on the lens housing. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the first spring mechanism is in a "first" condition at the first temple in a first position, at the first leg When in a second position, it is under a second condition. "Condition" means that any characteristic of the spring mechanism (including the spring mechanism!, its size, shape or length, and/or the conductivity of the spring mechanism) may vary. In some embodiments, this change in conditions can provide a change in conductivity. For example, the shape of the first spring mechanism can be varied to provide (or not provide) a physical connection between the spring mechanism (or component thereof) and the lens housing. In a consistent embodiment, the spring mechanism can be made, for example, by The length of the pot is changed to maintain electrical contact with the lens housing and the mirror foot (for example, the distance between the temple and the lens housing increases, and the length of the spring mechanism can be maintained to maintain contact). In this regard, the first spring mechanism can have a first length and a temple at the first leg position in a first position.乂乐 The first position has a length of two brothers.

And the first circuit # does not conduct electricity from the first temple to the outside of the lens when the (four) 1 leg is in a second position. The first position is an open position. "Open position" means that the first temple is substantially perpendicular to the first lens and the second lens: position A' such as when the frame mosquito is on the wearer's head. However, the vertical does not have to be exactly vertical 'because, in some cases, there may be embodiments where the angle between the temple and the lens is less than 90 degrees. The corner is then displayed by the corner ι〇4. The angle 104 can vary based on both the shape and size of the wearer's head and the size and shape of the frame. For example, in some embodiments, the first position can include the first temple and the lens housing positioned such that an angle 104 therebetween is between 60 and 110 degrees. Preferably, the angle 104 between the temple and the lens housing in the first position is between 8 and 9 degrees. This typically corresponds to the angle 丨〇4 when the first device is being worn, and thereby the electronics of the first device can be used. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, electricity is conducted from the first temple to the lens housing when the first conductive path is in the first position at the first temple. And the second conductive path is a closed position in the case where the first conductive path does not conduct electricity from the first temple to the lens housing when the first mirror is in a second position. "Closed Position" sound 160385.doc -27- 201234070 The angle between the temple and the lens is significantly less than 90 degrees 104. This angle may correspond to, for example, the situation where the device is not in one of the positions on the wearer's head, and thus it may not be necessary to activate any of the frame electronics. In some embodiments, the second position includes the first temple and the lens housing being positioned such that there is an angle 1〇4 between the twist and 60 degrees therebetween. Preferably, the second position comprises an angle 1 04 between the first temple and the lens housing between a twist and 45 degrees. Again, this equal angle may correspond to when the first device is not in use. Fig. 2(a) and Fig. 2(b) show two exemplary embodiments of /, _itit丨 and η &ping; First, referring to Fig. 2(a)', a spring 2〇2 disposed between the piercing casing 200 and the first temple 2〇1 is provided. In this exemplary embodiment, a portion of the spring 202 is shown as being embedded in the first leg 2 〇ι ^ the magazine is illustrated as a coil spring, and the conductor 2 〇 3 is shown as being placed in the bomb, 2 〇 2 Inside ^ is also ~ that is, the spring substantially surrounds the conductor). In some embodiments, the body and? Early yellow can include a bombing agency. Hinge 2() 4 is shown to be surfaced to both the sea-facing peripheral 200 and the first-foot 2G1. The hinge 2〇4 permits the first temple to bear the mirror housing 2. . mobile. - The conductive path is extended by the dotted line 2〇5 (within (4) =), (within the lens housing 2), and 2〇7 (within the first ❹). The conductive path may comprise such elements (eg, wires or dormant conductive material guides, what) or 5H conductive paths may represent & the components themselves (eg, lens housing 2〇〇 or postal mail) Π, Η ^ 弹 尹, mechanism (ie, spring 202 and or V limb 203) and / or first temple 2 〇 1 can be applied without limitation to this, V electrical material 枓). However, the actual rental path does not have to be supplied by the spring mechanism or the basin assembly. The spring 202 can be re-flyed to the first temple 201 such that the first temple 201 of the 160385.doc -28.201234070 applies pressure to the wearer's head. Referring to Figure 2(b), another exemplary spring mechanism for use in an electrical action frame is provided. The spring 212 is not a coil spring but may comprise an elastic material such that when the first temple 211 moves closer to the lens housing 21, the spring 212 is depressed. Due to the nature of the material of the spring 212, the spring provides the opposing force when the magazine is compressed (i.e., the spring is displaced toward the lens housing 210). This force can separate the lens housing 210 from the first temple and/or, for example, apply a force to hold the first device tightly on the wearer's head. The hinge 2 3 (which is shown to include a conductive material) is coupled to the lens housing 210 and the first temple 211 such that the 6-Hear lens housing and the first mirror are movable relative to each other. A conductive path is shown by dotted lines 214 (within the lens housing) and 21 5 (within the first leg). When the first temple 211 is positioned proximate to the lens housing 21 (e.g., when the spring 212 is sufficiently compressed), the conductive paths 214 and 215 can be connected (and thereby form a single conductive circuit). Although the conductive path is provided via the conductive hinge 21 3 as explained, the embodiment is not limited thereto. That is, a portion of the conductive path Q (e.g., between conductive paths 214 and 215) can be provided by any suitable component, such as via spring 2丨2. For example, the lens housing 21 and the first temple 2 can include electrical contacts at the interface of each of the contactable springs 212. When the spring is compressed, an electrical contact can be formed between the lens housing 210, the spring 212 and the first temple 211. In some embodiments, the conductive path 214 can be directly connected to the spring Η] (eg, the spring itself can comprise a conductive material) such that only electrical contact is required (optionally) with the conductive path 215 in the first temple 211 . For example, when the first temple is moved to contact 212, but before the lens 212 is fully compressed 212 to 160385.doc -29-201234070, a lens can be created from the first temple 2ΐ to the lens housing 210.

For example, the use of a spring mechanism can provide a better and/or more comfortable fit for the wearer, while providing a first guide from the first temple to the lens housing: the path allows the embodiment to be utilized in the lens housing (and / Or lens) and temples: electronic components on either or both. In addition, some embodiments may also have the advantage of providing the conductive path at - or a plurality of other + by means of a conductive path to the lens housing for the temple relative to the lens. An exemplary embodiment of power saving (and/or saving of electronic device life comprising separate conductive paths can provide a greater complexity of including electrical isolation from each other y due to the provision of additional electrical connections/pieces on the electrical frame, Therefore, it may be necessary to provide a guide between the amount and current of multiple components. 'Properly function' these electrical connections (and provide electrical signal components (or, 'the road must be separated (ie, 'electrically isolated) to be correct Control 5, right must supply power signals and control signals for an electrical component] 60385.doc • 33 - 201234070, this may also require multiple electrical isolation paths.) Electrical components are often located in the temples of the electrical action frame (Usually because there may be more space to place these components in an aesthetically pleasing manner). Having the electronic components housed in the temples may require such components in the temples to be attached to the lens. It may comprise an electrical connection between any of the electrical components of the lens itself. Embodiments may provide that such a conductive path from the temple of the self-electroactive frame to the lens housing is provided by a frame member of the electroactive frame. As used, "frame element" is any structural component of the frame (including the frame itself) or components embedded in the frame, such as wires, conductors (such as metal) or conductive rubber. Thus, for example, 'frame elements can include temples, nose Wrestling, lens housing (for example, for the frame side of a full-frame or semi-frameless frame, connected to the lens peripherals and temples: Hefen/-, #兄聊之链和/ or other lens housing, Such as a screw, a filamentary fiber, etc., or a portion thereof. The frame member does not include an external component attached to the frame, such as extending along an outer surface (called a line. In this way, fine-by-- or more A conductive path is provided in the frame member that is aesthetically pleasing by not allowing the air, the cord or other connector to traverse the frame or where it may be seen. b electric action frame and ★ single t y y · broken „ ─ ─ or two lenses with electrical components in the two use of the busy rack ' * contains a number of electronic components, such as drive components and control electrical components (such as 'per lens Drive components and control components. This can result in expensive devices with repeating components. The inventors have discovered that (for example, the use of frame components to provide multiple isolated electrical paths may reduce the number of repeated electrical losses and significantly reduce such devices. Cost (for example, by a single-electronic device module that can control both lenses of 160385.doc • 34 - 201234070). That is, electronic components (such as power supplies, controllers (such as microprocessors) and Sensor mechanisms (such as switches for bootable devices) are often the components that are the most expensive (or at least relatively expensive compared to some of the other components of the frame). By reducing the number of components per device, the inventors have provided the benefit of reducing the costs associated with the materials being produced and reducing the complexity and time of manufacture. In addition, the frame design may be lighter and more structurally durable as fewer components are placed on the frame. An illustrative embodiment of a device comprising a conductive path from a mirror of a device to a lens housing provided by one or more frame members (or components thereof) is described. The embodiments described below are for illustrative purposes only and are therefore not intended to be limiting. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art <RTIgt; </ RTI> <RTIgt; </ RTI> <RTIgt; </ RTI> <RTIgt; </ RTI> <RTIgt; </ RTI> <RTIgt; A --device is provided that includes a frame. The frame further includes: 〇, (d) a lens housing adapted to support the first lens and the second lens, a first temple that is coupled to the lens housing, and a first temple that is lightly coupled to the lens housing. The first device further includes a first conductive path provided by the one or more frame members from the first temple to the lens housing and a first mirror to the first mirror through the frame member The second conductive path of the lens housing "i.e., via the use of two conductive paths, the first device can provide, for example, two devices (e.g., one that provides power and one that provides control input) Inter- or multiple devices (for example, a signal or current supply to two different components (such as two electro-acting lenses) control 160385.doc -35· 201234070 module or power supply for crying π 仏 器) Multiple electrical connections between. In this regard, the younger conductive path is electrically isolated from the __ χ ... ν electrical path. Embodiments may thereby provide the ability to transmit individual signals (e.g., stress and control signals) from electronics housed in the temples to electronics located on the lens housing. It should be noted that the Thunder is not required to be located on the lens housing (for example, the electrical component can be located in the device's reading g + brother). In some embodiments, the device only needs to mention a conductive path from the temple (i.e., the wrong leg or any portion of the component) to the lens. The guide and the path can be extended to the lens or to another component on the 2/, or the conductive path can extend even beyond the lens and extend to another temple. It is often necessary (and/or necessary) to be located or placed in the intended use of:: electrical components. For example, if the electronic component shows the viewer an image, changes the refractive index of the lens, or otherwise provides a function related to the wearer's vision, then such components may: (or rely on coffee. However, as above As mentioned, the lens housing (or: does not have enough space for starting and/or utilizing electronic components (such as power supplies, controllers or sensing modules) located in the lens housing or lens that may require 2 external electrical components. In addition, if such components are placed on the lens and sucked (or the lens itself), such components may be aesthetically unpleasant and attractive. Therefore, in some embodiments it may be desirable to make such additional Some or all of the 12 pieces are located on (or inside) the temple's temples.

As mentioned above, it may be necessary to provide a conductive path between the components in the temples and the components of the lens housing (or lens). By using frame elements ( E.g 'The component itself or a conductor embedded in the component, the inventors have developed an embodiment of the device' which provides the necessary lead path to the lens housing while maintaining the aesthetics of the device. Furthermore, by electrically isolating the The components are provided to provide a separate conductive path, and the inventors have exemplified embodiments that provide multiple inputs and connections to devices that can be drained to the electrical components of the permeable housing.

Additional exemplary embodiments relating to similar embodiments are shown in Figures 11 through 12. Additionally, implementation Examples may include a plurality of electrical insulators (eg, multiple pieces of the same material or different materials) and insulation: the materials may be positioned along different portions of the electrical path (eg, one portion of the insulating material may be located in the temples and insulated The other portion of the material may be located in the lens housing. In this regard, in some embodiments, the first hinge includes a first hinge coupled to the first temple and the lens housing. The temples can be coupled to the housing and allow the temples to move relative to the housing. An electrical insulator can be located at least within the first hinge. For example, in some embodiments a portion of the electrical path can include a hinge (ie, a hinge) A conductive material or a conductive material may be included in the hinge. In some embodiments, the chain may comprise a conductive portion, because the hinge (4) to the lens housing (or a portion of the lens housing) and the temples Both, and thereby providing a conductive path between the two frame elements. The hinge comprising a portion of the conductive path - examples are shown in Figure 2 (4) (eg, paths 205-206) and Figure 2 (b) ( For example, path 214 is taught. The hinge can, for example, comprise a conductive material and the insulator can be placed in the hinge to define two electrically isolated conductive circuits. As mentioned above, the electrical insulator can be located in any suitable location as desired or In some embodiments, for example, in some embodiments, the electrical insulator is located at least within the first leg. In some embodiments, the electrical insulator is at least: in the peripheral of the shishifang. This can be "better" in, for example, a semi-frameless frame 莸A 1 in which part of the frame side (which can be used to shield or - break into the conductor) exists only in one part of the lens (eg, the top of the lens 160385.doc • 38·201234070 or bottom). The two conductive electrodes can be located in a portion of the frame material, and an electrical insulator can be used to separate the two paths. In an embodiment, the first device further comprises a/ The electronic component module of the first temple of the frame. As mentioned above, in some embodiments, the scorpion state module and other components may be preferably located on the temple foot. The group can include ") controllers, power supplies, and/or sensing mechanisms. Some of these components make =: to operate the electrical components located on the lens housing, which may be due to: f = an electrical contact between the electronics module and the component. In this regard, the first conductive path and the second conductive path can be electrically connected to the electronic=module. In this manner, the electronic device module (or a component thereof) can be 2; to the lens housing a component (such as a component of the first device located in f?). In some embodiments, in addition to embedding the electronic device and being deceived in the (four)-mirror, the frame component is used to provide a conductive word. Partially resulting in a device that appears to the observer as a normal (non-electrically acting) frame. Also in 'in some embodiments' (eg, 'lighting to the embedded electrode set') electronic components and (including one or more frames) The conduction of the component is not affected by the natural environment, η γ γ ... and can, for example, reduce the possibility of short circuit due to external charge or six. - In some embodiments, the first device as described above comprises - a first lens having a - electrical contact and a second electrical contact lens. That is, some embodiments of the first device may include an electro-acting lens (such as a lens that performs a different power f when supplying current to the lens or components thereof). In order to provide current to an electroactive lens or a group thereof, the lens may include one or more electrical contacts. In some embodiments, the first conductive path is electrically coupled to the first electrical contact of the first lens and the second conductive path is electrically coupled to the second electrical contact of the second lens. That is, the first conductive path can be electrically connected to the first lens and the second conductive path can be electrically connected to the second lens. In this way, for example, an embodiment may provide that an early electrical component (or an electronic device module) connected to both the first conductive circuit and the second conductive path can provide signals and/or currents respectively. To the first lens and the second lens of the device. For example, embodiments may provide that the first lens and the second lens are separately controlled using electrically isolated conductive paths. The first lens and the second lens may be individually controlled by separate electrical components (ie, the first conductive path and the second conductive path may (but need not be) electrically connected to a single component) rather than using a single electrical component ( Or electronic device module). In some embodiments, the first device (including a first lens having a first electrical contact electrically connected to the first conductive path and a second electrical contact) Connected to the second lens of the second conductive path, the first lens may further include a second electrical contact and the second lens may further include a first electrical contact. That is, the first lens and the second lens can each include a first electrical contact and a second electrical contact such that each can receive a plurality of signals or currents from one or more electrical components. In some embodiments, the first conductive path can be electrically connected to the first electrical contact of the second lens and the second conductive path can be electrically connected to the second electrical contact of the first lens. In this regard, the first lens and the second lens can each be electrically connected to both the first conductive path and the second conductive path. Embodiments such as 160385.doc-40-201234070 may, but need not, provide for simultaneous control of both the first lens and the second lens using a single-electronic device module or other component. Embodiments may thereby utilize, for example, a single electronic device module that is electrically coupled to both the first lens and the second lens. As described above, a single electronic device module and/or electrical component (such as 'an electrical component that can be coupled to the first temple of the device') is used to control a plurality of electrical components (eg, The lens housing and/or the components of the electro-optical lens of the first device can provide several benefits. This includes, for example, 'removing redundant electrical components, and thereby reducing the manufacturing cost and complexity of the first device without sacrificing functionality. These embodiments may also eliminate the need to synchronize the first lens with the second lens. That is, for example, if the first lens and the first lens are electrically actuated lenses and two different electronic device modules (or components thereof) are used (4), the operation of each may have to match the other one. (Otherwise, the wearer may misinterpret or receive conflicting functionality from the lens). Synchronizing the lens may require additional electrical components and further increase the cost and complexity of the first device. ϋ In fact, in some embodiments, the second temple or the second lens does not include an electronic device module that is connected to it. In this way, by using a single electronic device module (or a component thereof) electrically connected to both the first lens and the second lens (or other components that are attached to the lens housing), the electrical frame can be Contains less redundant features. In some embodiments, the use of two electrical connections (ie, 'via the first conductive path and the second conductive path) may be located in a lens housing or an electroactive lens (eg, the first lens and the second The minimum number of electrical contacts required for the electrical components on the lens to function properly is 160385.doc 41 201234070. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the lens housing comprises a non-conductive material and the frame member providing the first conductive path (or a portion thereof) comprises an embedded in the lens housing Conductive material. That is, the conductive path can comprise a material embedded in the lens housing. This may provide the benefit that the lens housing material itself may electrically isolate the first conductive path from other components, such as the second conductive path. Also, the use of a non-conductive material (rather than a conductive material) for the lens housing prevents short-circuit failure of the electronic component or a false signal generated by an external source such as by static electricity. In some embodiments, the frame member that provides the second conductive path (or portion) includes a conductive material embedded in the lens housing. In such embodiments, the frame elements providing the first conductive path and the portions of the second conductive path may be embedded in the lens housing such that a sufficient amount of non-conductive material (eg, including a lens) A material of the outer casing is disposed between the two electrically conductive paths such that the two electrically conductive paths remain electrically isolated. In some embodiments, additional electrical insulation can be provided and it can also be embedded within the lens housing. In some embodiments, the lens housing comprises acetate. Acetate is one of the more common materials included in the lens frame. The acetate is not electrically conductive and it is therefore preferred to use this material for some of the embodiments described above that utilize non-conductive materials. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, wherein the first device comprises a first lens and a second lens having a first electrical contact and a second electrical contact, wherein the first conductive path Electrically connecting to the first contact of the first lens and the second lens, and wherein the second conductive path is electrically connected to the first lens of 160385.doc -42 - 201234070 δ hai and the second of the second lens Contact, the lens housing can be packaged

A first portion of the lens housing provides at least one Λβ yV Ο P P knife of the first conductive path. That is, the outer nX of the lens comprising a conductive material forms an electrical connection between the first electrical contact of each of the first lens and the second lens. Exemplary embodiments thereof are shown in the drawings &quot; and Figure 12&apos; and will be described in detail below. In some embodiments, at least a portion of the ^ two conductive paths are provided by the second portion of the lens housing. That is, for example, the lens housing can be divided into a plurality of electrically isolating trowels that can be performed in any manner, such as by having two separate conductive blocks that are suitably shaped (eg, a mold that is shaped to the lens housing portion) So that when coupled to the first device, the first portion and the first file can support the lens) and couple the two portions to the first device (by the Partially connected to the chain or temple), so that the remaining part is separated (ie, 'electrically isolated'). Some of these embodiments may provide advantages over other designs for providing electrically isolated conductive paths, such as (by way of example) providing a less complex manufacturing process. That is, for embodiments in which the lens housing itself contains a conductive material, it may not be necessary to provide a conductive material embedded in the lens housing (this may be a complex process, especially when attempting to define multiple conductive paths that are isolated.

This can be illustrated by reference to an exemplary embodiment of FIG. 1 and FIG. The electrical isolation between the first conductive path 11〇1 and the second conductive path (4) is an air gap at the bridge 1103. Other points of electrical isolation are provided at the edges 1104 and 11〇5 of the lens housing at the edges Wherein the first portion of the lens housing and the second portion 1102 are attached to the temple at different locations. In some embodiments, electrical insulation may be used instead of the air gap at the nose bridge 11〇3. The advantages of the embodiment are that the portions 1101 and 1102 above and below the air gap are likely to be deformed at a certain point, so that electrical isolation may be damaged (especially when considering the daily abuse that the lens may be subjected to). If in If an insulator is used at 1103, even if the portions 11〇1 and 11〇2 change shape, there may be an insulator disposed between the two portions, thereby potentially maintaining electrical isolation. As mentioned above, in some In an embodiment, the bridge 1 103 includes a first portion 丨1〇1 and a second portion 1200 of the lens housing (or portion thereof) and an air gap can be formed at the bridge. In some embodiments, 160385.doc - 44- 201234070 The air gap has a maximum distance of at least approximately 1 ο mm. This distance of the air gap provides sufficient separation between the first portion 1101 and the second portion 11〇2, making the air gap less likely to be used during each use period. Damaged. In some embodiments, the first portion of the lens housing and the second portion of the lens housing comprise a metal.继续 Ο Continuing with the embodiments, in some embodiments, the first device further comprises at least one disposed between the first conductive path and the second conductive path between the J π knives In the case of an electrical insulator, the electrical insulator may comprise a - component and a second component. The first component of the electrical insulator disposed between the first conductive path and the second conductive path includes the first lens and the second lens. That is, in the case of Figure 11 which is for illustrative purposes only, the first portion of the insulator may refer to the separation provided by the first lens 1106 and the second lens 1107. That is, in the case of a two-way yoke, the lens is not made of a conductive material (or includes an embedded lightning guide, V electrical material) so that current can flow from the lens portion 11 () 1 to the second Part ug2.

This material may be preferred because it is (9). (iv) 4 is sufficient to mold its shape to the special 疋&amp; field it is limited to. In addition, since the material is applied to the truss, the crucible can be easily placed in the area. In a disambiguation implementation ^ embedded in the lens housing or nasal truss - the % of electrical insulation material contains nylon. In some embodiments, such as the U, the device may include a semi-frameless lens frame. As mentioned above, in some embodiments, the semi-frameless lens frame usually has a wall 兮笙 ^ ^, 尧 5 第一 first lens and some of the second lens to provide a branch Part of the frame side. It may be preferable to provide the first conductive path and the first-to-remote-first circuit in the semi-frameless lens (4) because, for example, 盥 can be used on the remaining sections of the lens to hold the lens in place. In contrast to filamentary fibers or other materials, the frame side is typically the thicker portion of the lens housing (i.e., this portion can better hide the electrical components and the core better protects the electrical connections from damage). In this regard, in one embodiment, the first conductive path and the second conductive path are each disposed within a lens housing of the semi-framed glasses. For the semi-frameless (four) design embodiment, the first conductive path and the second [conducting path material body can be placed on the top (or bottom) of the lens, depending on the style of the frame and/or the side of the frame (or Above the thicker portion of the lens housing) where it can be positioned. The first conductive path and the second conductive path may be separated by an electrically insulating material. That is, for example, a lens housing in a semi-frameless design can include a frame side (or any other suitable lens housing component) over the top portion of the first lens and the second lens. The portion of the lens housing can include both the first conductive path and the second conductive path 160385.doc -46 - 201234070 and an insulating material (such as resistance =) disposed between the conductive paths such that the first conductive path and The second conductive path is electrically drivable to the first lens and the second lens and is electrically isolated from each other. In some embodiments, in the first device as described, the lens housing comprises a full frame eyeglass frame. The illustrative embodiment is again shown in Figure 12 but the embodiment is not limited thereto. For example and as described above, the full frame design embodiment can also include a first 导-guide circuit control and a second conduction circuit # provided by a material that is inserted into the lens housing. That is, embodiments are not limited to the use of only a lens housing comprising a conductive material. Full frame embodiments may include a lens housing comprising a metal or glue (or some combination thereof). In general, a full frame design may be preferred from a functional point of view, as many of these embodiments include a frame edge that provides a first conductivity from the temple to the lens housing and/or from the lens housing to the temple. A ready-made means of the path and the second conductive path (as described in the example above). Ά Although embodiments may provide a path from the temple to the lens housing (in some embodiments, the one or more conductive paths may provide a number of components for the electromechanical frame.) embodiments are not limited thereto. A number of advantages, but the concepts discussed and described are equally applicable to embodiments comprising two device modules and/or other components located in the first and second temples. In general, two:: worry about the advantages of the single-module embodiment, such as by having; the parent (or two) components located on each of the temples and the individual controls (such as Greater flexibility in terms of electro-optical lenses. Celebrity External Cases··············································· The frame further includes a lens housing adapted to support a first lens and a second lens, a first temple coupled to the lens housing, and a second temple coupled to the lens housing. The first device further includes a first conductive path from the first temple to the lens housing provided by one or more frame members, and one or more frame members are provided from the first temple a second conductive path to the lens housing, a third conductive path provided by the one or more frame members from the second temple to the lens housing, and a source provided by the one or more frame members a second mirror path to the fourth conductive path of the lens housing. As mentioned above, the use of frame elements provides many advantages over systems that may utilize exposed lines or other methods for establishing a conductive path between the temples of the frame and the lens housing. In the first device, each of the first conductive path, the second conductive path, the third conductive path, and the fourth conductive path are electrically isolated from each other. As mentioned above, it is often beneficial to provide multiple electrically isolated conductive paths for controlling multiple electronic components and/or providing additional functionality, such as by providing power paths and signal paths to such components. In some embodiments, the first device as described above can provide the advantage that a plurality of electronic device modules and/or electronic components can be disposed on either or both of the temples of the electrical action frame. This may, for example, allow for more functionality than a single module embodiment, based on, for example, providing additional electronics included on the first device. Moreover, by providing an electronics module on both temples, embodiments can provide the advantage of not having to utilize conductive paths that span the bridge from the frame to the power/control electronics on either side of the lens housing. At 160385.doc -48-201234070 =:, this reduces the portion of the fabricated electro-optic lens frame.

The first-through electrical contact may be used to the lens (or a portion thereof) The Thunder knife is electrically coupled to other electronic components (such as a controller or power supply) that can provide this voltage or current (eg, in the form of a control signal or power supply). The first device can also include a lens housing that holds the lens. The lens peripheral may include at least one second (eg, as described above, ie, the lens housing (the lens housing of the wide area) or one of the components may include a path portion, and the second electrical connection The point may be used to electrically connect the conductive circuit furnace to another conductive element (which may also be embedded in the lens housing or may include any other part of the first device or a component thereof, such as a lens). The Γ further includes a flexible conductive member disposed on the first electrical contact and the first: the flexible conductive member electrically connects the splicing with the second electrical contact. That is, the flexible conductive member can pass the = Arranging to provide a current between the first electrical contact and the second electrical contact (in this illustrative case, between the lens and the lens housing). In this manner, current can be applied via the lens housing (eg, power or - The control signal is supplied to the lens to a component of another portion of the first device (e.g., on the mirror of the electro-mechanical frame). As mentioned above, in some embodiments, the flexible guide The use of f components can provide better than previous Some of the advantages of the conductors used and the other components of the components in the electrical action frame (especially when formed into a 160385.doc-55-201234070 connection to an electro-acting lens). For example, a flexible conductive element is formed to - The surface of the electrical contacts (especially as described above) may be better electrically connected because of some or all of the shape of the flexible conductive book such as a slanted edge. In this way, the piece of electricity: = eg, connected Zone) may be larger, from the interface (eg conductivity) 仏5 hai, the addition of the two, in the implementation of some, - flexible conductive elements: a more stable electrical connection, which can be compared to the previously used conductor More effective:: external force.

For example, if the lens is between the lens housing and the lens housing The spacing is increased at a location where a flexible conductive element is used to make electrical contact between the two components, and in some embodiments the i-conductive element can be expanded in the location to maintain the electrical contact. Similarly, 'in some embodiments' if the force applied between the lens housing and the lens is increased (eg, 'applying an external force to the lens housing, such that it deforms or moves up in the direction of the lens 160385.doc • 56-201234070 Bit), the flexible conductive element can be compressed at the location where the force is applied between components such as 5 hai (this may include a temporary shift such as the conductive flexible component is absorbed by compression and then expanded to absorb Add some or all of the power). Thereby, in some embodiments, the flexible conductive element can absorb the stress applied to the first device and maintain an electrical connection between the components. Furthermore, by absorbing some or all of the forces applied thereto, a flexible conductive 7L member may, in some embodiments, prevent or limit any of the components including the first electrical contact and the second electrical contact. damage. For example, if a force that causes the lens to be in direct contact with the lens housing is applied to the typical device above, the lens can become fragmented at the interface, which can compromise the integrity of the lens, the ability of the lens housing to hold the lens, and/or Or affect the electrical contact between the two components. The use of a conductive, flexible material disposed between portions of such components can reduce V or prevent such direct contact and can be used to absorb such forces and limit damage. In some embodiments, the use of a flexible conductive element in a - device can also provide advantages during the manufacturing process. For example, as mentioned above, many lenses are formed and edge processed prior to being braided into one of the lens housings of an electrically active frame. This can result in minor differences between each lens that is subsequently coupled or housed within a lens housing. In embodiments in which electrical contacts are formed between such components, the use of features that are adaptable or conformable to any of the surfaces disposed on the electrical contacts and the relative placement between the two components are utilized. Components can reduce manufacturing costs and defects, and provide a more reliable and suitable device. It should be noted that these advantages are provided as an example of the advantages of some embodiments that can be provided by J60385.doc-57·201234070, and therefore the n fi t # 揭 揭 施 施 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必 不必Stupid - some or all.

In some embodiments, the first device (which includes a lens having a - contact, a lens housing having a second contact, and - disposed therebetween and electrically connecting the first device) In the flexible conductive element of the contact and the second contact, the flexible conductive member can be disposed between the lens housing and the 忒 lens. That is, as mentioned above, in some embodiments, the flexible conductive element can be disposed between some or all of the lens and portions of the lens housing. In some embodiments, where the flexible conductive element is disposed between the lens and substantially all portions of the lens housing, embodiments can include the flexible conductive element disposed directly opposite a surface of the lens housing The entire outer surface of the lens (or only the portion of the outer surface of the lens directly opposite the lens housing surface). In some embodiments, the flexible conductive element can be disposed between the lens that does not form an electrical connection and a portion of the lens housing (e.g., the lens that does not include electrical contacts and portions of the lens housing). This may provide some of the benefits detailed above, 160385.doc-58-201234070, including reducing damage caused by physical contact between the lens and the relatively hard surface of the lens housing (even without forming an electrical connection) In some embodiments t, the flexible conductive element is disposed only between the lens containing the electrical contacts and a portion of the lens housing. The reduction in the amount of flexible conductive elements thus reduces manufacturing costs. An illustrative embodiment is shown in Figure 2. Additionally, in such embodiments, the lens housing can be fabricated to include different portions corresponding to the segments in which the neoconductive elements are disposed and the sections in which the flexible conductive elements are not disposed. Thereby, the fourth-fourth can utilize a more efficient lens housing design to accommodate the placement of a flexible conductive material between the lens housing and the segments of the lens. The illustrative embodiments are not disclosed in Figures 21-25. In the yoke example, in the first device as described above, the conductive member has one or any combination of the following: a shape - an angle, a square, a "number 8", a Oval, - round or - rectangular. As used herein, "shape: large" of a flexible conductive element: refers to a cross section of a flexible conductive element that is perpendicular to the longest dimension of the flexible conductive element. For example, in some embodiments of the flexible conductive 2 system extrusion, the shape eight is extruded through the aperture. The sheep's conductive j corresponds to the flexible conductive element found in Hc). An example of the shape of a small electric-piece is shown in the figures. In some embodiments, the shape of the sheep, &amp; m-type conductive 7&quot; includes a "number 8" shape, which is preferred because, for example, "auxiliary coupling" Connect the lens and lens housing. "Writing and two ends" can refer to a flexible conductive element having the shape of a center segment between the two and the other. The shape of the center segment 160385.doc -59- 201234070. The two end segments are thicker than the central segment. The two end segments do not have to have the same thickness or the same length. In some embodiments, 'the flexible conductive element comprises a square or rectangular shape rather than a triangular shape, which may be preferred (especially when the lens has a slanted edge), since the square or rectangular shape may be by a larger portion of the surface of the lens, etc. The shape provides a larger electrical connection area. In some embodiments this is attributed to the "triangular" shape causing the edges of the lens to compress the flexible conductive material against the opposite surface of the lens housing without permitting the flexible electrical component to cover the lower portion of the lens surface. It should be noted that the shape of _, - - γ % ~ ΊΤ &lt; shape may be inaccurately corresponding to the shape (e.g., rectangular square, etc.) at the surface of the flexible conductive member. That is, as the conductive flexible member is in the same shape as the opposite surface of the lens or lens housing to which the body is attached, the shape of the flexible conductive member may be referred to as a slight change at the surface of at least a portion of the conductive member. "Shape" may refer to the shape of the flexible electrical component when placed between the first electrical contact and the second electrical contact, or the uncompressed shape of the component (ie, the 'flexible conductive component at one of the defects: A shape before or before a force is applied to the surface of the second electrical contact. In addition, it should be understood that in some embodiments, no shape is included, or that the flexible conductive member 7L can include other shapes than the defined shape including the irregular shape and the length along the flexible guide.

The flexible conductive pieces can then be electrically connected to another electronic component (such as an electroactive lens). In this manner, an embodiment can provide a conductive path to conduct current (e.g., control signals and/or power) from the temple to the flexible conductive material (and then, for example, to conduct to an electro-acting lens). As mentioned above, in some embodiments, the first portion of the conductor can be exposed and electrically connected to the spear! ^Flexible V electrical components. That is, as used herein, the first scull of the conductor may be exposed under the circumstance that at least a portion of the conductor is not surrounded by the lens housing such that a flexible conductive can be formed In some embodiments, the first device (including a first temple coupled to the lens housing and coupled to the first mirror) An electronics module, and a conductor substantially embedded in the temple and/or the lens housing, the lens housing comprising acetate. As mentioned above, acetate is a common material used in the manufacture of lens frames and is generally not electrically conductive. Thus, in some embodiments, to provide a conductive path to the electronic device module that is coupled to the first temple, a conductor can be embedded in a lens housing that includes a non-conductive material. It may generally be preferred to embed a conductor in a frame member such that the frame member (or a portion thereof) isolates a conductive path (or a portion thereof) from external forces, such as possible short circuits and/or overvoltages. . In contrast, in some embodiments in which the lens housing comprises a conductive material, the lens housing itself (or a portion thereof) can include a portion of a conductive path that electrically connects the electronic module to the flexible conductive member. In some embodiments, the first device as described above comprises a semi-frameless, frameless or fully framed eyeglass frame. Exemplary embodiments of some of these eyeglass frames will be described below with reference to the drawings. In some embodiments, the first device (including a lens having a first contact, a lens housing having a second contact, and a first disposed therebetween and electrically connecting the first device) In the contact and the flexible conductive element of the second contact, the lens comprises a first recess, the lens housing comprises a first cavity, and the flexible conductive element comprises a first portion and a second portion. The first portion of the flexible conductive element can be disposed substantially within the first recess of the lens. This is shown, for example, in Figure 19 and Figure 23 to Figure 24 160385.doc -64-201234070. As used herein, "disposed within" may refer to a portion of a portion of a flexible conductive member that is positioned such that a cavity or lens recess of the lens housing approximately surrounds portions of the portion of the flexible conductive member. The second portion of the flexible conductive member can be disposed substantially within the first cavity of the lens housing. In this manner, the flexible conductive element can support the electrical connection of the lens to the surface of the lens housing to the electrical contacts on the surface of each of the lens and lens housing. - - In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the first portion and the second portion of the flexible conductive member are connected by a bridge. "Nose bridge" refers to the material between the first portion and the second portion of the flexible conductive material in this context. See, for example, Figure 2〇's Partial Readings and the "Nose Bridges" are connected to the second part 2005 and 2006 respectively. The exemplary embodiments herein are identical to the first portion and the second portion; However, the bridge can comprise any shape and any suitable material. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, wherein the first portion of the flexible conductive element is disposed substantially within the first recess of the lens and the first portion of the flexible conductive element _ Wo Yi. The 卩 sub-system is disposed substantially in the first cavity of the lens housing, and the first portion of the 豕' 豕 flexible conductive element has a shape including any one of the following: a triangle: a triangle , a square, a circle and a rectangle. In some embodiments, the second portion of the flexible conductive element has a second shape of a package, or any of the following: a triangle, a square, a 囫 囫 and a rectangle. In general, it is preferred to select the shape and dimensions of the portion of the flexible conductive member 160385.doc-65-201234070 to maximize the electrical contact that the material can make on the surface of the lens and/or lens housing. In this regard, it may be beneficial to maximize the shape of the interface of the surface region when the conductive flexible member is compressed (typically, the shape corresponding to the shape of the lens housing cavity or lens recess). However, embodiments are not limited to this. Examples of shapes are provided in Figures 20(4) through 2(4). In some embodiments, the 'lens have a first surface within the first recess and at least a portion of the first portion of the flexible conductive element substantially conforms to the first surface of the first recess." It may include v最 points of the outermost surface of the groove of the lens. Again, this is typically the surface that forms part of the conductive path with the flexible conductive material. In this regard, in some embodiments, the first side of the lens is coated with a conductive lacquer to contact not only the flexible conductive material but also an easier and better connection to the components of the electrical mirror. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, wherein the first portion of the flexible conductive element is disposed substantially within the first groove of the lens and the first portion of the flexible conductive member The two portions are disposed substantially in the first cavity of the lens housing, the first groove of the lens having a width in the range of approximately 0.4 kPa to 1.9 mm and an approximate 〇4 to 1.0 Depth in the range of mm. In some embodiments, the groove of the first lens has a width of approximately G, 7 mm and a depth of approximately Q6 mm. The specific dimensions of the components can be seen in the functionality of the lens and lens housing as described below. In general, it is desirable to make the relative dimensions between the visibility of the cavity, the recess and the flexible V private component relatively similar. The flexible conductive member functions as a protective layer between the coupling lens and the lens housing (Fig. 160385.doc -66 - 201234070) and acts as a protective layer between the lens and the lens assembly. The dimensions of these components will be discussed with reference to Figure 2A and Figure μ. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, wherein the first portion of the * electrically conductive 7L member is disposed on the first recess N' of the lens and the flexible conductive member The second portion is disposed substantially within the first cavity of the lens housing, the lens housing having a first surface located within the first working chamber. The "first surface" may comprise at least a portion of the outermost surface of the cavity of the lens housing. The portion of the flexible conductive element can be substantially contoured to the first surface of the first cavity. Similar to the connection of the flexible conductive material to the surface of the lens, the flexible conductive element also forms contact with portions of the lens housing. However, in some (but certainly not all) embodiments, the contact formed with the lens housing is: an embedded conductor having an exposed portion, and thus, although beneficial, the flexible conductive material may not necessarily be like a lens The surface is contoured as much as the surface of the crust. In some embodiments, in the first device described above, the first portion of the flexible conductive element is disposed substantially in the lens: the inside of the recess and the second of the flexible conductive element a portion is substantially disposed in the first cavity of the lens housing, the flexible conductive element having: - the first surface of the first groove of the lens and the lens;: the shell: cavity The distance between the first surfaces is the height of the uncompressed high-material conductive element. The flexibility is substantially perpendicular to the lens housing and the lens member. Describe the uncompressed height. 160385.doc • 67· 201234070 An example is shown in Figure 23(d). In some embodiments, the uncompressed height of the flexible conductive element is at least 0.75 mm. In some embodiments, the uncompressed height of the flexible conductive element is at least 1.45 mm. However, as mentioned above, the size of the components can vary based on other dimensions of the device. In general, the greater the uncompressed height, the more surfaces (and the more electrical connections that can be formed) of the flexible conductive element when placed between the lens and the lens housing. In this regard, in some embodiments, the first surface of the lens housing and the first surface of the lens compress at least a portion of the flexible conductive element when the lens housing is coupled to the lens. In this manner, the flexible conductive elements can form an electrical connection while also providing an auxiliary benefit to the device, such as protecting the rigid components from damage caused by direct contact with each other. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the lens includes a first surface 'the lens housing includes a first cavity' and the flexible conductive member includes a first surface. The flexible conductive element is disposed substantially within the first cavity of the lens housing, and the first surface of the flexible conductive element is substantially contoured to the first surface of the lens. In some embodiments, the first surface of the lens includes a first sloped edge and a second angled edge. "Slanted edge" can refer to the inclination of a corner (including an angle equal to 90 degrees) that is cut into the lens. In embodiments that include a full frame frame (rather than a semi-frameless frame), the lens typically includes a beveled edge (rather than a groove), wherein the lens can be coupled based on a portion of the lens disposed within the cavity of the lens housing To the lens housing. In some embodiments, the first cavity has a first width and the flexible conductive element has an uncompressed width that is greater than the first width of the cavity. "Uncompressed width" may refer to the width of the conductive element when the rubber is not subjected to external stress. 160385.doc -68- 201234070 Conductive element width. This description is illustrated in Figure 23(e) and described below. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, wherein the flexible conductive element is disposed substantially within a first cavity of the lens housing, and wherein the first surface of the flexible conductive element is substantially The upper surface is contoured with a first surface of the lens, and the cavity of the lens housing has a top surface. A portion of the lens extends into the first cavity of the lens housing. The flexible conductive element has an uncompressed height that is approximately equal to or greater than a distance from the top surface of the cavity of the permeable housing to a portion of the lens that extends into the first cavity. This concept is illustrated in Figure 23(d). In general, the flexible conductive element preferably has a height such that when the lens is disposed in the second face of the lens, one of the lenses partially contacts and thereby compresses the flexible conductive element. As mentioned above, it is generally beneficial to have a dimension substantially greater than this minimum distance to provide a more robust electrical connection. "Top surface" may refer to the surface of the lens housing opposite the lens. In some implementations, in the first device as described above, the flexible conductive element comprises a metal-added stone elastomer. In some embodiments, the metal comprises silver and Ming (AG-A1). However, any material having the physical properties described above with reference to the flexible conductive material can be used. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the cough flexible conductive member has a volume resistivity of less than 10 Ω. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the ?-?1%% component has a volume resistivity that is less than the apparent volume. "Volume resistivity" can refer to resistivity (eiectnca丨 resistivity, resistivity) or specific resistance. Generally speaking, the conductor preferably has a low volume resistivity, and 0 has a smaller number with 160385.doc -69- 201234070. This may be particularly important in some embodiments because the parts can be compressed, which can increase the density and at the same time the resistivity of the pieces. Thus, the material may be heavy in some implementations if the volume is reduced so that the volume of the material is reduced. In some embodiments, the first:: member has a Xiao's A standard hardness tester as described above. Hardness greater than %: hai ===j: Acoustic The flexible conductive element has a hardness on the standard hardness tester. The hardness of a component refers to its force in the shape of the heart and the surface and the overall ductility of the material. As mentioned above - in order to form an optimal connection, the flexible conductive element is shaped like the shape of the lens and the surface of the lens housing. In some embodiments, the flexible conductive member has a hardness on the Xiao's A standard hardness tester that is approximately equal to 7 及 and a volume resistivity of approximately 0.0008 Ω-cm. Although described above with respect to lenses and lens housings, embodiments are not limited thereto and any two electrical contacts that may be disposed on any one or more components that may be disposed on a first device (eg, an electrical active frame) may be provided. Flexible components are used between them. It will be understood that after reading the invention as provided herein, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that each of the above described devices can be formed such that one of the features described with respect to one (four) is 9 or All may be combined with some or all of the features of another device.

In some embodiments, the flexible conductive element 14〇1 may be encapsulated (e.g., substantially surrounded by or embedded in the insulator), such as a lens housing 14〇4 comprising a plastic material. In some embodiments, the flexible conductive element 1401 can be positioned (eg, disposed) (eg, disposed) in the electro-active frame 1400 (or lens housing 1404) when the electro-active frame 14 is fabricated, such as during a forming process or an injection molding process. internal. In some embodiments, the flexible conductive element 14A can also be positioned inside the cavity of the lens housing 1404 after the lens housing 1404 has been fabricated. This will be described in more detail below with reference to Figs. 18 through 25.

Referring to Figures 18 and 19, a semi-frameless eyeglass frame will be described. An illustrative embodiment of the design. It should be noted that although many of these concepts will be described in the context of a semi-frameless frame, many of the features and principles may also be 'other frames' (such as 'full frame' And the frameless frame is used (or may be applied to it). Moreover, these embodiments are for illustrative purposes and therefore are not intended to be limiting.

As shown, the lens is supported along its upper edge by a hard portion 18〇2 of the frame (eg, a frame edge that can be wrapped with a material such as metal) and along its lower edge by an upper portion of the hard shell that is attached to the outside of the lens Part of the 8 〇 2 transparent plastic filiform fiber 丨 8 〇 4 (through 160385.d One of the sections of oc • 75- 201234070 is often nylon. The filamentary fiber 丨 804 is shown as being disposed in a groove 1807 in the edge of the lens 1803. The length of the filamentary fiber 1804 can be such that when the lens 1803 is mounted In the frame, the filamentary fibers are tensioned and thereby the lens can be held in place. Referring to Figure 18(b), a cross-sectional view of Figure 18(a) is shown, for a better view to better illustrate An exemplary member of the lens secured in a semi-frameless frame. As shown in such an exemplary embodiment, the frame edge 8〇2 may contain a cavity 1805' that secures a semi-rigid having a "digital 8" cross-section One of the extruded parts of plastic 1 801 (usually a pair). The remaining portion of the extruded member 〖8〇 1 is placed in the groove 1806 of the lens and prevents the lens 1803 from moving back and forth. In the portion of the outer surface of the lens 1 803 (e.g., along the groove 1 807) that is not in contact with the "digital 8" shaped extrusion 1801, the nylon filament fiber 18 is substantially replaceable. Extruded member 1801 as shown in this exemplary embodiment. Since the filiform fibers 1804 can be colorless and can be completely (or substantially) disposed within the lens recesses 18 8 , the filamentary fibers can be barely visible except for rigorous inspection. It should be noted that the construction of a semi-frameless frame design having the ability to function is disclosed in U.S. Patent Publication No. 2010/0177277 A1. Embodiments of the framework disclosed in this context may be similar in appearance to the exemplary embodiments of the framework shown in Figure 18(b). Some of the differences in the electrical functionalities that may be allowed to implement the framework disclosed in this context may be related to the particular details of how the framework is constructed and the use of other novel conductive structures, such as in US Patent Publication No. 2010/0177277 This is described in detail in the A1, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. 160385.doc -76- 201234070 Figures 19(a) and 9(13) illustrate a comparison between an exemplary semi-frameless frame of non-electrical action and an exemplary embodiment of an electrical action frame comprising an electro-acting lens. That is, Figure (4) shows a cross section of a conventional semi-frameless frame, and Figure 19(b) illustrates a cross section of the frame of the electro-optical counterpart of the frame shown in Figure 9 (Figure 19). In both (a) and Figure 19(b), the fibrillar fibers 1904 are used along the lower portion of the lens (Jane or 1913) disposed within the bladder to secure the lens (1903 or 1913) within the frame. In some embodiments of the electrical action frame shown in Figure 19(b), the frame edge can be made of a conductive material. However, this need not be the case, as any suitable method can be used (such as 'by The conductor is post-into the non-conductive material) to establish a conductive path in the frame side 1902 (and/or other components of the lens housing). In the manufacturing process, in the embodiment where the frame side 19〇2 contains a conductive material, it may be necessary Care is taken to ensure that no coating or finish is applied to the inside of the frame, so that the conductive surface is maintained (for example, in the cavity 19〇5). Q See Figure 19(b) 'In some implementations In the example (and for illustrative purposes only), the electro-acting lens may comprise two substrates Interfaces 〇8, which contain internal electrodes for actuating the lens! 913. This has been previously described by the inventors, for example, in US Patent Publication No. 2010/0177277 A1, which is hereby incorporated by reference. However, as mentioned above, embodiments are not limited thereto and the methods, devices, and components disclosed herein may be applied to any electrical action frame and/or components thereof (eg, 'any type of electroactive lens is included in the pair During an exemplary manufacturing process of edge processing of an exemplary electroactive lens 1913, the groove cut 6 can be placed such that it is traversed across the interface (the boundary 160385.doc • 1 Ί · 201234070 can, for example, comprise two electrodes A liquid crystal layer is continued.

Or lacquer to provide a conductive path to the electrode of lens 1913 without substantially damaging the visual properties of lens 1913 or being seen by an observer. In some embodiments, the width of groove 1906 can be Between 0.4 mm and 1.0 mm (i.e., the horizontal distance shown in Figure 19(b)) and the depth is between 0.4 mm and 1.0 mm (i.e., the vertical distance in Figure 19(b)). The inventors have found that, in some embodiments, preferably, the recess 1906 can be approximately 〇.7 mm wide and 0.6 mm deep. In general, the recess should be such that the extruded member or other material 191 1 (or A portion can be placed in the recess and assist in attaching the lens to the lens housing. However, over-groove is generally not preferred 'because the recess can become visible and affect the aesthetics of the device. Some implementations that include an electro-acting lens In the example, in order to provide a properly functioning lens 1913, the inner surface of the frame edge 19〇2 and the conductive paint 1909 applied to the recess 1906 of the lens 1913 (i.e., the surface of the lens 1913 including the recess 19〇6). A conductive path is formed between). This can be achieved by means of a flexible conductive element 1911. The flexible conductive element can be a physically flexible and electrically conductive material. In some embodiments, the material can be extruded into a shape that is substantially disposed within the frame edge 19〇2 and the lens 1913. This design may provide some or all of the advantages detailed above, including providing a conductive path between the lens housing and the lens, providing structural support to the device, preventing or minimizing damage to the hard surface of lens 1913 and lens housing 1902. Wait. As described above, the flexible conductive member can take any shape and have any suitable size of any of 160385.doc -78 - 201234070. In this regard, Figure 2(a) shows a cross section of an exemplary conventional extrusion (i.e., non-conductive) 2000 and its exemplary dimensions (amm), while Figures 20(b) and 20( c) show the cross-section and dimensions (in mm) of two exemplary flexible conductive elements 2〇1〇 that can be used, for example, in a semi-frameless electrical action frame. Fig. 20(a) shows a typical "digital 8" shape of the non-conductive element 2, and Figs. 20(b) and 20(c) reveal a shape slightly different from the non-conductive member. The upper portions (i.e., the first portions) 2001, 2002, and 2003 of each of these elements are similar because the upper portions can each be designed, for example, to be mounted to the same lens frame assembly (e.g., , inside the frame). As depicted, each of the flexible conductive elements 2〇1〇 has a lower portion (i.e., the second portion) 2005 and 2006 having a shape different from that of the non-conductive extruded member lower portion 2〇〇4. This can be attributed to the fact that the flexible conductive element 2 0 1 〇 can be designed to contact the area of the lens recess coated with the conductive lacquer and form an electrical connection to the areas. As can also be seen in Figures 20(a), 20(b) and 2(e), as depicted, the total vertical dimension of the Q-switched flexible component 2010 is greater than the conventional non-conductive "Digital 8" shaped extrusion 2000. . This design can be made in some embodiments to ensure that when the lens is mounted in the frame (ie, mounted within the cavity of the frame), the bottom of the lens groove contacts the bottom of the flexible conductive element (ie, the second portion) 2005 and 2006, so that the lens can slightly compress the flexible conductive element. Since the flexible conductive element 2〇1〇 is compressed, it will be possible to substantially maintain the physical (and thus electrical) connection between the lens, the flexible conductive element 2〇1〇 and the frame edge, especially when the frame is worn and removed.

As mentioned, 'softness of different heights can be obtained. _+ ·7 (for example) adapts to changes in lens processing (lens of the lens: :::): flexible conductive slot ice). Although the surface of the lens of the octagonal stem and the tenth will probably function with the width (the horizontal dimension is shown as a case for the groove of the lens I Γ: better, and therefore the conductive performance of the conductive element = two The width of the bottom part 2_ shown in the second figure:) is not as seen. In contrast, the flexible conductive element 2 of Figure 20(8) is depicted as having an optimized width (i.e., the width is such that the configuration is more likely to form a more stable electrical contact. It should be noted in some The shape of the 'Temperature Conductive Element' has become exactly the same as the "Digital 8" design used for the non-conductive extruded parts (or similar) for the poor design 'because the conductive flexible element may not be guaranteed , pressed against the edge of the lens and thus provides a stable electrical connection.

Although plastics with electrical capability are discussed with reference to Figures 14 through 17, an additional example is shown with reference to Figure 22, as shown in Figure 22, for physically continuous conductive paths (e.g., embedded conductors, such as wires). A drive voltage (eg, a waveform) is applied to the lens and the sync signal auto-control module 22A7 is routed to the controlled module ^08. That is, for example, as shown in Fig. 22, the embedded conductor 2 provides a conductive path for the self-controlled electronic device module 22〇7 across the lens housing to the controlled electronic package unit 2208. As mentioned above, embodiments using a single electronic device can also be used. In addition, Figure 22 also shows the openings in the metal sleeve 2206 that hold the module or other components that allow the electronics modules UN and 2208 to be inductively charged. This can be beneficial because these embodiments can provide power without the use of a battery (or can supplement the use of the battery to provide a longer life). With continued reference to the embodiment illustrated in Figure 22, the top conductor 22〇1 is shown embedded in a lens housing (which may include, for example, acetate) and can carry a drive electronic signal from the right lens to the left lens . &quot; ^ In addition, in one embodiment, the embedded conductor 2201 can also carry a power$ signal between the two lenses to synchronize the functionality between the two lenses. The embedded conductor 22 ^ 160385.doc -81 - 201234070 will be carried to the lens (for example, ground) with reference to the hairpin S number. Figure 22 also specifies tilting into the lens housing (for example, into the front of the acetate frame) a special square (or any other suitable shape) may be present at location 2203 to 0) expose portions of embedded conductors 2201 and 2202; (7) embed flexible conductive material; and/or (3) allow embedded conductors 22〇1 and 22 The electrical connection between the exposed portion of 〇2 and the soft 7L component. That is, in an exemplary embodiment, the portions designated by 2203 can be locations where the electrically conductive flexible material can be disposed within the lens housing and can form a conductive path from the lens housing to the lens. Figure 22 also indicates where the conductor 2204 (such as the pogo pin) is located for lifting = from the temple to the lens housing (for example, to the embedded conductor and the 22-circuit V circuit P Figure 22 is also not used The mirror foot is connected to the exemplary location of the money key 2 2 5 of the lens housing.

As mentioned, Fig. 23(a) shows that, The cross-section of the conventional lens (ie, the 'non-conducting) plastic frame of the male lens 2302 is χ-Χ, and the lens 2302 has a slanted edge located in a similar inclined region of the frame edge 23 (i.e., disposed). That is, the lens 23 02 is provided with a top surface of the bottom surface of the lens housing (ie, the eyelid). This is a conventional lens design to couple the lens to the lens housing.

In addition to the existence of enemy-type conductive paths (for example, metal wires or the like), the basic structure is similar to the conventional 160385.doc &gt;82- 201234070 The frame 6 is further constructed. Since the conductive path 23〇4 is completely enclosed in the insulating material of the frame side 2301 at this location, there is no electrical contact between the lens 23〇2 and the lens housing 2301 (or conductively embedded therein) Figure 23(c) shows a section Y-Y1 of an electrically conductive plastic frame in the area where electrical contact between the lens housing 23〇 and the lens is required. In this region, the square cavity 2305 is machined. To the frame edge 2301, it exposes a 肷-type, electrical path 23〇4 (eg, a wire or the like). The cavity 23〇5 (4) is squeezable or otherwise configured in one embodiment A rectangular conductive shaped conductive member 23A. As also shown in Figure 23(4), the top surface of the lens 2302 can be configured to also be disposed within a portion of the cavity. Figure 23(d) shows the cavity 23 in detail. 5 and the flexible conductive element 23〇7. Like the half,,,, fc $ As such, it may be desirable to have the edge of the conductively coated lens 2302 physically contact the flexible conductive element 23A7 and the remaining portion of the periphery of the lens 2302 (i.e., the top surface) and the conventional oblique section of the frame side. (For example, in Fig. 21, in the defined cross section, no electrical contact is formed in the crucible) the flexible conductive element is compressed prior to contact (as shown in the dust-shrink area). As described above, in the flexible conductive element Upon compression (i.e., based on the force exerted by the surface of the lens housing 23G1 and the top surface of the lens 2302), it will maintain the entity between the lens 2302, the flexible conductive element 2307, and the conductive pathway bribe.

In general, when the value of the uncompressed height (H uncompresse d) is increased above Hmin, the electrical connection between the flexible conductive element 2307, the lens 23 02, and the lens housing 2301 (and/or the embedded conductive path 23 04) is stable. The maximum height Η can be determined empirically based on the degree to which the flexible conductive element material is compressible such that the lens 2302 (or a portion thereof) can still be mounted into the lens housing 2301 using methods known in the art. That is, the maximum height may be such that the flexible conductive element 2307 will still be sufficiently compressed such that the lens 2302 is properly disposed within the cavity 2305 and thereby coupled to the height of the lens housing 2301. Referring to Fig. 23(e), the width of the conductive flexible member 2307 is preferably a smaller amount (δ) than the width W of the recess, so that the flexible conductive member 2307 is mounted on the lens 23 0 after being inserted into the cavity 239. Keep in place without the need for an adhesive. The inventors have found that a value of δ in the range of approximately 1 mm to 0 · 5 mm is preferred and works well for this purpose. In an exemplary embodiment, a rectangular flexible conductive element approximately 2.1 mm wide (for a 2.0 mm wide cavity) and 1.2 mm high allows for lens 23 02 with a delta value of approximately 0.1 mm (100 μηη). Robust electrical connection to the lens housing. Illustrative Embodiments Included Full Frame Metal Eyeglass Frame Design As mentioned above, the specific embodiments discussed herein are merely illustrative, and other embodiments utilizing the same or similar principles may exist. By way of example, in some embodiments, it may be desirable to have an electrically actuated frame having a complete metal frame made of a conductive material. The page section of this frame is not shown in Figure 24. In this exemplary embodiment, the frame side 240 1 contains a square cavity 2402, preferably without a coating or finish applied to the square cavity, such that the frame side 2402 material is electrically conductive from 160385.doc -84 - 201234070 The surface is easily touched. Alternatively, conductive flexible material 2403 can be mounted into cavity 2402 (eg, disposed within cavity 24〇2) that can form an electrical connection between lens 24〇4 and the frame (eg, lens housing 2401) . In the region where it is not necessary to form an electrical connection, the flexible conductive member 24〇3 can be omitted and the edge of the square cavity 2402 in the frame side 24〇1 supports the slope of the electro-acting lens 24〇4. In other embodiments, the electrically conductive flexible member 24〇3 can be mounted in all portions of the frame side cavity 24〇2 (i.e., disposed in all portions of the frame side cavity 2402) and coated only with conductive paint. The regions of the lenses 24〇4 form electrical contacts. The shape of the electrically conductive flexible member can be any shape, including a rectangular shape (similar to the exemplary embodiment described above with respect to the exemplary full-frame plastic side), or the embodiment can have a slight bevel. The conductive flexible member 2405 shown in Fig. 24 as having a slight bevel can also be applied to the full frame plastic frame in other embodiments. As with the previously described frame design, it is preferred that the edge of the conductive lacquer coated lens is in physical contact with the flexible conductive material and that the conductive material is constricted before the remaining portion of the periphery of the lens contacts the remainder of the frame edge. . As described above, 'because the flexible conductive element is compressed, it will maintain the entity between the lens, the flexible conductive element and the lens housing and thus the electrical connection (eg 'conductive path), especially when the frame is worn and During the detachment of the spectacles, an illustrative embodiment of a conductive flexible component that provides a conductive path from the lens housing 2500 to the electro-optical lens 25A is included. The left side of the map shows a close-up view of the monthly exhibition. The frame comprises a lens (1) such as L3, such as a plastic (e.g., acetate) non-conductive material, 160385.doc-85-201234070. The conductor 2503 is embedded in the lens housing 2500. As shown in the exemplary embodiment, conductor 2503 is electrically coupled to the temple at 2506, which may, for example, comprise another conductor, such as a pogo pin. Conductor 2503 is also coupled to flexible conductive element 2501 in cavity 2502 (e.g., conductor 2503 can be exposed along portions of cavity 25 02). As shown, the electrically conductive flexible material 2501 is located within a portion of the cavity 2502. A second conductive path is also shown that includes a second embedded conductor 2504 that is also coupled to the flexible conductive element 2501 disposed within the cavity 25 02 in the lens housing 2500. The second embedded conductor 2504 is electrically coupled to the temple at point 2506. Thus, as shown, Figure 25 illustrates an electrical active frame comprising two separate conductive paths from the temple to the lens 2507 via the flexible conductive element 2501. In a portion of the lens housing 2500 (where the conductive flexible element 2501 is not located), the lens housing 2500 includes a cavity 2508 that can have a conventional shape (eg, non-square), and a portion of the lens 2507 (eg, a sloped edge) can be disposed on Inside the cavity. A hinge 2505 that couples the temple to the lens housing 2500 is also shown. A close-up view of the cross-section shown as A-A and B-B on the left side of Figure 25 is shown on the right side of Figure 25. As shown, in section A-A, an electrical connection is formed between conductor 2503, flexible conductive element 2501, and lens 2507. The cavity 2502 is shown to include a rectangular shape, and the flexible conductive element 2501 is shown to have dimensions (dimensions in mm) that are disposed substantially within the cavity 2501. At the location B-B, no electrical contact is made because the electrical frame does not contain the flexible conductive element 2501 in this location. The cavity 2508 is shown in this cross section and the lens housing 25 00 is shown as encapsulating the conductor 2503 such that no contact with the lens is formed at this location. Finally, 160385.doc -86- 201234070 is shown to show the cross section of the overlap of the sections Α_Α and Β_Β, where the difference between the cavities 2508 and 25G2 (including the conductive elements 25G1) can be seen. Material Composition of Conductive Flexible Element and Ink As discussed above, regardless of the frame design, the conductive flexible element can, for example, comprise a physically flexible and electrically conductive material that is extruded or otherwise molded - with a frame And the shape of both lenses is used for the shape: a conductive path between the lens and the frame (ie, the bridge). Although the materials of different types are suitable, the inventors have obtained good results in the use of metal-added polysulfide elastomers having a volume resistivity of less than 10 Ω. The volume resistivity of less than 1 Ω has also been found to be suitable for materials having a value greater than the value of the Xiao's standard hardness tester, but greater than 65 but preferred. The inventors have utilized an extruded silver-and-aluminum (Ag-Al) polyoxyelastomer embodiment having a volume resistivity of 0.008 Ω-cm and a hardness of 70 Å. The embodiment is not limited thereto. The office achieved good results. However, while such materials are typically fabricated into a final shape prior to assembly into a frame of jade, in certain embodiments, the ^T target is coated with a liquid or gel immediately adjacent to the assembled eyeglass frame. The form is not thick, you ^ „Chemical Shake' so that after the solidified material is rubbed, the material simultaneously forms a guiding circuit L with the lens and the frame e @ ., 〃 (for example, the lens housing). (eg 'nose bridge'.) This may be preferred in some embodiments, because a conductive material can maximize the maximum amount of table connections between the contact lens and the lens housing. The electricity is applied to the edge of the lens 160385.doc •87- 201234070 in some examples including an electro-optical lens to establish an electrically conductive conductive paint or ink that can be used to form the conductive material of the internal electrode of the lens itself. Since these electrodes are usually in the line of sight of both the wearer and the viewer of the lens, they preferably have a transparent conductive material, such as (illustrated by way of example only) available from Japan's Sumitomo Metal Mining. O Ink Mixture X-806CN27S. For lenses made with this ink formulation, after edge processing and grooving, an additional amount of X-806CN27S can be applied to the edge of the lens and cured. To create a more stable Electrically connected to a second conductive ink or lacquer over the cured X-806CN27S. Although many conductive metallic inks (based on silver and/or nickel) are available, conductive carbon-based inks are more decorative due to decorative reasons. Good. Carboniferous-based conductive inks are preferred 'because the % ink is not oxidized (ie, discolored) due to age and does not look as bright as metal-based inks. Only by way of example, such as from Creative Conductive carbon inks from Materials Incorporated purchased from 122-49 may be preferred. Electronic Frames Containing Enclosure Modules When designing and fabricating glasses containing one or more electronic components, such components may also be considered The manner in which the frames are merged. In some examples, the electronic components can be inserted or coupled to the frame of the electronic glasses (eg, in a cavity of the temple or lens housing) The or the electronic components can be inserted during fabrication or included after fabrication. For example, in some embodiments in which the frame comprises a plastic material, such as acetate, during fabrication (such as, The frame is molded around the electronic device during molding or injection molding of the plastic. However, this may limit access to the electronic device and may hinder repair or replacement. In addition, the plastic material may be during the manufacturing process 160385.doc -88 - 201234070 Expansion and contraction, which can cause the frame assembly to vary in size and/or shape. Molding the frame around an electronic component (such as around an electronics module) can result in a non-uniform eyeglass frame with surrounding electronic components. Defects, structural irrationality, lack of access to components in the framework, etc. - - In some embodiments, a cavity may be formed in one of the components of the frame (such as the mirror legs) during the fabrication process to place the electronic device during or after fabrication . Examples of such embodiments are illustrated in Figures 3 to Π), wherein the electronics module 3〇7 is shown inserted into the 308 (or placed within the cavity) and with a - J m fastener Others (such as screws, adhesives, etc.) are attached to it. Other examples are shown in Figures 16 through ^, wherein the electronic frame includes housing modules 16〇3, j: w piles, and attached to the mirrors One of the feet and housing the electronic device module 1605 (ie, the snowman gg Μ , the electronic device module is disposed in the housing module). Figures 16 and 17 will be described in more detail below. - in some cases, when the frame (or _1 fly, component) contains - a plastic material (such as acetic acid vinegar), as mentioned above, the 哕3 plastic material can expand and contract due to heat, thus The electrons within the cavity generate pressure and/or cause portions of the frame to deform around the components.

In this regard, in some embodiments, such housing modules may be used to couple (eg, attach) electronic devices to an electronic frame, and to maintain an electronic frame or The shape and structural integrity of a component (and thereby maintaining aesthetics). In some embodiments, the electronic eyeglass frame of the present invention may include a housing module that can be coupled to one of the electronic components of the electronic frame ( For example, attached to the structural component and/or placement (4) junction (4) +, the "outer module" may refer to an electronic test piece (and/or - electronic device module) that can accommodate electronic glasses (eg, containing The electronic crying piece (and/or an electronic device module) of the electronic glasses 1 contains, surrounds, packages, surrounds, etc. the components of the electronic crying device (and/or an electronic device module). The external module does not need to completely enclose the electronic component or the electronic device module. Also, the external module may not cover the area of the electronic device module, such as the opening or the aperture of the electronic device module. Interaction, such as by "People" (for example, via a capacitor or a thin switch) "on" and "electric" with a lens (or other electronic components placed on the frame of the glasses). In some embodiments, The outer module of the outer casing module is selectively placed to allow for external permission For example, in this 1: (and / or from the shell module shifting), in the second embodiment, the electronic device module can be pressure-fitted for insertion into a two-way An opening (eg, "sliding in" or otherwise) and engaging the outer casing module. The outer casing module 2: the material may be based on the specific purpose of the assembly and based on other shapes and materials: and / or electronic devices The other components of the module vary in size. For example, the housing module can be packaged or metal-resistant or non-conductive materials - such as plastic, carbon fiber, to match the frame of a particular style. Jiadi, i Jun, the shell material and size so that the normal consumption of electronic components can not be inadvertently removed from the shell module or 160385.doc •90· 201234070 issued: 'Can be applied to the electronic components and their electronic components, and the electrical and / or control signals of the electronic components, and can be predicted and / or undesired behavior.

Thus, in some embodiments, the placement of the cap is substantially disposed within the electronic component of the electronic device module. = [The shelf and / or external environment electrical insulation may be preferred. That is, for example, in an embodiment, the insulating material may be disposed (or substantially disposed in the frame of the electronic component and the electronic lens in the sub-device module and / or placement room. However, the electronic components and cores disposed in the electronic module and / or - or a plurality of electric cokes - or a plurality of electrical cocoa exist: a plurality of conductive paths 'to make electronic components And or control signals are provided to these components. For example, in some embodiments, a housing module can include a conductive such as - metal. In some embodiments, such materials may be comparable: because the materials may have the aesthetic shape and shape that maintains the frame: the day 'prevents or inhibits deformation of the frame and thereby accommodates and protects the electronic group: (and The structural properties of the electronic device module). However, the 'conductivity of the outer casing module causes the pen assembly to be inadvertently grounded' or can generate external electric power or supply this electric charge to one of the electrical components without requiring or requiring additional power 160385.doc -91 - 201234070: More = In this example, in some embodiments it may be necessary to include - = insulation between the peripheral module and the electronic component in order to prevent or reduce = short circuit _ and / (d) stray electricity from the external material Dangerous. In the implementation of - the insulating material may comprise a part of the electronic device module (such as 'the layer placed on the outer surface of the electronic σ cattle mold material, or ... the module itself may contain an insulating material), so that The electronic device = and can substantially electrically insulate the electronic components and conductive housing (and/or other conductive components, such as a portion of the frame) disposed therein. The general-purpose housing module can comprise any suitable material, including non-conductive, for example, - insulating materials. Therefore, in some embodiments, the electronic component module may comprise a conductive material, but may be electrically insulated (or substantially electrically insulated from) the frame and/or the external environment by including a group of non-conductive materials. ). In an embodiment, the inventors have discovered that, in some embodiments, the use of a conductive material for the housing module can reduce the unintentional power consumption in the electronics module and thereby increase the power in some examples. The effectiveness of the lens is reduced to reduce malfunction or misconduct. In addition, in some embodiments, which may include a sensing mechanism, the electric valley touch switch, an insulation: for example, a layer is used to prevent charge misconnection caused by interaction with the user, and eight may prevent or reduce one. Incorrectly indicating the presence of a second mutual charge with the user. In one embodiment, the insulating material may be disposed within the housing module and may be between the housing module and the electronics module (or a portion thereof). For example, the 5' housing module and the electronics module can both contain a conductive material, but can be electrically insulated by the material disposed therebetween. However, as used herein, a portion that does not include an electronic device module (including a layer disposed on an outer surface), but is disposed between the outer casing module and the electronic device module (or a portion thereof) The insulating material or layer can be considered as part of the housing module. In general, the insulating material may comprise any suitable electrical insulator, including plastic or rubber, or any other material having a suitable high electrical resistivity or, preferably, the insulator is selected to be at least approximately 5 volts (but at _ In some embodiments, it is preferred to effectively isolate to -> approximately 20 volts - the electrons in a relatively short distance « can correspond to the external (and internal) voltage applied to the frame::; Some implementations may have an 'insulator thickness less than approximately Η) (and in some embodiments preferably less than approximately 5). Generally, the thickness of the body is as small as possible (because of the available space within the electronic frame; it can be limited) while still providing sufficient electrical insulation. Therefore, in some embodiments, the thickness of the insulating material can be less than! _ may be better. As mentioned above, the housing module can be located in any suitable location on the electronic frame. For example, the outer two upper mirror clamshells (or within or attached to them) or the temples or both are included or attached thereto. That is, for example, in some embodiments, - and inserted into one of the components of the lens frame (such as in the group: cavity) and providing support to maintain the shape and aesthetics of the frame, while also: :: or multiple electronic components are transferred to the components of the electronic eyeglass frame. In some instances, the housing model can include a separate section of the frame. Also, 160385.doc -93- 201234070 That is, for example, in some embodiments, the housing module can be disposed between one of the frame legs and the lens housing such that the housing module is coupled to both the lens housing and the temple . An example of this is shown in Figures 16 and 17, and will be described in detail below. In such embodiments, the lens housing can use any suitable member such as an adhesive, one or more fasteners (such as a screw coupled to the temple, and/or the two components can be designed to make the housing One portion of the module can be inserted into the temple and/or lens housing (or otherwise structurally mounted into the temple and/or lens housing or transferred to the temple and/or lens housing K or And vice versa. In some embodiments, the lens housing and the temples can share similar structural components (such as a similar core, such as Figure 16 and the core 16G1). In some embodiments, the lens housing or The temples and electronics modules can be connected by using one or more hinges. Embodiments can thereby provide - contain, enclose, encapsulate, correct or accommodate - or multiple electronic components (or portions thereof) a housing module and/or an electronics module comprising one or more electronic components of the electronic eyeglass frame. As mentioned above, in some embodiments, the housing module can be a frame (or a component thereof) Provide structural support that prevents or reduces the frame being fabricated The deformation during the process or during subsequent use of the frame, or the outer casing module itself may provide a portion of the frame that conforms to the aesthetic style of the pivot. In some embodiments, it may be desirable to provide selective consumption from the electronic eyeglass frame. The ability to connect (eg, attach) or deplete (eg, 'remove) a housing module and/or an electronic component (or electronics module). For example, it may be desirable to selectively reduce the housing module to The frame is such that the outer casing module can be manufactured in a process of partial separation from the electronic frame. That is, (d), in the embodiment of __this 160385.doc •94-201234070, can be made and the ancient clothes have An electronic frame of the cavity, the electronic housing module can be inserted into the cavity after the electronic eyeglass frame or its manufacturing process, and the housing can be placed in the cavity, and the electronic device module The device module can be coupled to the housing 槿έ ^ , , and in some embodiments, the electronic device module can be inserted into the cavity before the housing module (4) to the housing module. In some exemplary implementations In the example, the shell module can be used as a frame (or Adding and providing) support and preventing or reducing deformation of the frame (eg, if the frame $ contains a plastic material such as acetic acid or nylon). Similarly, electronic devices (eg, electronic device modules) may also be required for selectivity. The ground is detached to the outer casing core and/or from the outer casing module (eg, removable). This may permit the absence of: old or exhausted components (such as old or frequently used power supplies). In addition, selectively inserting and removing electronic components or electronic modules can provide the ability to use the electronic eyeglass frame. For example, the same electronic eyeglass frame (or components thereof) can be used for different purposes but Can be manufactured in 2 ways (10) which allows for cheaper production). Customization can be done by lightly connecting (a: 3 in a separate electronic module) different electronic components with the same or class frame (and borrow This is provided using different electronic components). A: As mentioned above, the housing module can be fastened to the frame in any suitable manner (by using adhesives, screws, etc.), in some implementations, providing housing molds and/or electronics can be used It may be preferable to easily connect to ^ and/or to deplete). The inventors have discovered that an example of a relative efficiency approach can be to shape the housing module (or :). That is, for example, the outer casing module can be attached to the frame by the outer casing module. In this regard, the shape and/or size of the components such as I60385.doc -95-201234070 can be such that if a force is applied in a particular direction of the housing module (or electronics = group), the component can contract in that direction. Although the force is not applied in this direction, the assembly is expandable. If the receiving component (eg, the electronic frame or its cavity) is designed to accept expansion of the housing module, the housing module can be inserted into position and easily attached (or, with similar force applied, In the second place, the electronic device module can be designed to press-fit to the outer casing module. In this way, the external shouting or electronic device module can be inserted or removed without damaging the frame and structure. The manner in which it is easily coupled to the electronic frame (or decoupling X, for example, does not require a tool such as a screwdriver). As mentioned above, the inventors have discovered that, in some embodiments, a housing with a pressure fit Or an electronic device module may be preferred. In some embodiments, the electronic eyeglass frame may include a temple having a port in one end that allows the housing module or the electronics module (or both) Inserted into the "Hai opening and thereby placed in the temple (eg, in the cavity) lit. Another example of D is shown in Figure 27 and will be described in detail below. In this way, A ° A in one In the K example, by applying pressure in a vertical direction (usually changing the component to: or I # # = ϋ, the heart to reduce the weight cross-sectional area) and inserting the external redundancy group or electron 4a / &amp;&amp; / 杈, and / / remove the shell module or electronic device module from the storage component and connect the right module to the right and the right side / or the electronic device module is coupled to the frame / will be coupled to the eight cloud coupling. In some embodiments, the outer casing module may comprise a frame of components - that is, as described above with reference to Figure 16, the outer casing module may It consumes $# η &amp;, the brother's foot and/or the lens casing, but it is not necessarily placed in the temple or the lens casing.)) and the 冤子杰件 module can be inserted into the casing 160385.doc •96- 201234070 Module One of the ends - one of the opening components is sturdy and fits to it. The pressure fit - the cross-section can provide several advantages, and the point is easy to add and remove the components. -] in the middle... When choosing - or when multiple electronic components are used in the middle, the door opening of the electronic device is $4* placed in a housing mold An opening in the end of the set or an electronic module in the frame assembly, and a miniature electronic module. In some embodiments, the two-piece module can be "sliding" into position (eg, insert To the second of the opening, it is placed in the outer casing module). The housing module (and/or the temple of the frame) can: be such that it has a region, cavity or opening that allows the electronics to be molded into it and thereby the module can be coupled thereto. An example of this is illustrated in Figure W. In addition, in some embodiments, the inventors have discovered that the size of the compression electronics module is perpendicular to the direction in which it is inserted into the housing module (also reduces the size of the electronic S-component module - perpendicular to the temples) The axis (eg, the dimension in the direction of the axis in which the largest dimension of the temple is normally located) may be more efficient because in some instances 'this may not affect the conductive path or electronic components. In some embodiments, it may be preferred to compress the electronics module in a direction parallel to the axis in which the temples extend, as such embodiments may compress electronic components and/or conductive paths, which may require additional components. Maintaining such conductive paths and/or requiring specific materials, such as conductive rubber, to include some of these components, and in some embodiments may also increase the risk of potential failure of electrical contacts. For example, an electronic device module may, in some embodiments, include electronic components (such as a power source) that are not easily compressible. Additionally, in some embodiments, having the opening at the end of the temple (or housing mold 160385.doc -97 - 201234070 group) may provide an advantage over utilizing an opening in another location (such as along the body of the temple) Advantages, such as increasing the durability of the electronic eyewear when in use, which is typically when the maximum force is applied to the frame, as the opening may be blocked and/or protected by other components of the electronic eyewear (eg, a hinge or lens housing). This prevents the electronics module (and/or the housing module) from being unintentionally removed from the device. Again, an illustrative description of such embodiments is shown in Figure 27 and described below. As mentioned above, some embodiments may provide advantages over electronic glasses that do not include a bulk mold (where the electronics and/or electronics modules may be located). For example, some embodiments including a housing module can provide a center of the heart or a component thereof (the "plastic" frame that may otherwise be surrounded by the deformation of the components contained in the cavity). The outer structural support can provide a removable access to the electronics module because the implant assembly may not be molded or formed directly around the electronic component. Some embodiments may also provide benefits during the manufacturing process. For example, the housing module and/or the electronics module can be fabricated in a single manufacturing process (and can contain different materials) and can later be assembled with other components of the frame. - optionally consuming to the framework components and / or (d) and / or each other _ and / or to _: the subgroup and / or the outer two modules can be served by allowing a single infrastructure to serve For example, 'by using multiple and/or different electronic devices that can be coupled and/or decoupled as needed, the flexibility and effectiveness of the 力 力 包 包 框架 frame can be further improved — because for example Defective or used components can be more Easy to replace.)

In addition, as described below, the housing module itself may comprise a separate component such that the individual component may not be disposed within the structural component (and thereby not providing a support for the structural component) or the separate component may be 160385. Doc -100- 201234070 is coupled to one or more structural components. An example of this embodiment is shown in Figure i6. In some embodiments, the first device as described above can include a first lens and a second lens coupled to the frame, and an electronic device module. The electronics module can be located (eg, disposed) within the housing module. That is, for example, the electronics module can be positioned such that some or all of its components are contained within the perimeter of the housing module. However, as mentioned above, the portion of the t-sub-device module may not be covered (e.g., encapsulated or surrounded) by the outer casing module. In addition, in some embodiments, a portion of the electronic benefit module can be protruded or disposed outside the housing module via the housing module. One such example provided for illustrative purposes may be a touch sensitive switch, such as a capacitive switch or a membrane switch, having at least a portion that is exposed such that it can interact with a finger such as a user. The electronic device and at least one of the following: a power supply; a second controller; and a sensing mechanism (ie, the electronic device module can include more than two electronic components) . For example, the electronic device module can include a power supply and control 11; a power supply and a sensing mechanism; a controller and a sensing mechanism; or only one of the components.

In some embodiments, the In the device, an insulating layer may be disposed between the one or more electronic components (which may themselves be disposed within the electronic device module) and the frame of the first device. The term "placed between" may Reference to when positioning - an insulating material (eg, an insulating layer) to electrically isolate - or more of the electronic component t from at least a portion of the frame. (4) The edge layer may also isolate some or all of the electronic components. The outer layer and the outer layer of the insulating layer can be designed or configured to be disposed in the electronic device mode And the electronic components inside are electrically isolated from the external current or voltage source. As explained above, the electronic components and external currents and/or voltage sources are more likely to touch the current or external charge or voltage. The less likely it is to affect the performance of the electronic framework or its components. For example: in some embodiments, the insulating layer can be utilized such that no unintentional or undesired voltage or current is applied to the electronic For example, in some embodiments in which the electronic device module can include a sensing mechanism, if a desired voltage or current is applied to the sensing mechanism (such as a conductive device) If the shell module is based on a user's "touch" and is not effectively dissipated due to the conductive material, the sensor is activated by 3b, , , and the original method. However, It should be noted that the conductive path to the module, and the components of the module, etc., can be established (eg, via use - into the conductor within one of the openings of the electronics module). For example, in: In the embodiment, - can be safe The sensing module external to the electronic device module can have a conductive path, for example, to a control inside the electronic device module, 160385.doc • 102· 201234070. In addition, a power supply or controller can be used. Electrically connected to other components on the electronic frame. In some embodiments, the conductive paths may also be electrically isolated from the frames or a housing module that may include a conductive material. 〇 一些 In some embodiments, Where the insulating layer can be disposed between - or a plurality of electronic components (which can be disposed within the electronic device module) and the frame, the housing module can include the insulating layer. That is, for example, the housing module (or a portion thereof) can comprise an insulating material. In some embodiments, the housing module can substantially enclose and/or be consuming to the electronic yak! The group 'and thereby, if the outer casing module comprises an insulating material, the majority of the pirate module (and thus the sub-components disposed in the module) can be associated with the frame and/or Or electrically isolated from the external environment. In fact, in some examples, the electronics module can include a conductive material and can be electrically isolated by the housing module (or portions of the electronics module can be electrically isolated by the housing module). This may permit that some embodiments include - an electronic device module that may include a conductive material such as a metal. This material can provide advantages over other types of materials (such as with increased manufacturing efficiency), including a component that can better protect the components disposed therein during manufacture, assembly, transportation, and/or use of the device. Material. In some embodiments, in the first device as described, in the case where an insulating layer can be disposed between the frame of the electronic component lens or the frame of the plurality of electronic electronic glasses The housing module can include 2 materials and the insulating layer can be disposed between at least the electronic device module of the housing module. "At least a portion" generally means that at least 25% of the device module can be isolated from the housing module by the insulating layer. For example, in some embodiments, the housing module may not be adjacent to (or electrically coupled to) the entire surface of the electronic device module, and thereby the insulating layer may not have to be electrically conductive with the entire electronic device module. The housing module is electrically isolated. For example, the housing module can have one or more openings that provide access to the electronics module (or components thereof, such as a sensing mechanism). In some embodiments, the insulating layer can segregate more of the electronics module (e.g., at least 50%, or preferably at least 95%), depending on the design and functionality provided by the electronic glasses. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, an insulating layer can be disposed between the one or more electronic components and the frame of the electronic glasses that can be disposed in the electronic device module. The insulating material may comprise a portion of the electronic device module. That is, for example, in some embodiments, the electronic device module may have an insulating material disposed on (eg, attached or deposited) on an outer surface thereof (or an outer surface of the electronic device module or the sleeve may include a Insulating material) and thereby the electronic device module can be used to isolate some or all of the electronic components from the frame, the housing module and/or the external environment. To be used herein, in an embodiment where the electronic device module comprises an insulating material or an insulating material outer wall (such as a wall, a capacitor, a shell, etc.). The outer wall can be considered as an insulating layer disposed between the electronic components (which are disposed within the electronic device module) and the outer casing. For example, in some embodiments, the outer wall (or the container) of the sinister module (or an insulating layer disposed on the cymbal group) can also be used for electrical isolation to be disposed on the electronic device module. 160385.doc •104-201234070^ The electronic components and the housing module containing the conductive material (or any other component of the electronic glasses, such as a frame). As mentioned above, it has been found that in some embodiments, such as when the housing module includes a material, the electronic components that are electrically isolated in the housing module are - and the housing module may be relatively sturdy, ra First / /,, outside &quot; rather because (for example) charge may be stored or applied to the running module (especially if a sensing mechanism can be exposed between the housing modules), this can be affected The performance of electronic devices.绝缘 The insulating material that can be used in the _ can be any suitable material, such as plastic, nylon, rubber, carbon fiber. In general, minimizing the size of components and layers (including insulating layers) may be preferred in view of the relative area available in the frame of the eyeglasses. That is, for example, the portion of the electronic eyeglass frame that contains the electronic device can be accommodated (e.g., if the component protrudes from the frame), which is not considered to be aesthetically pleasing in some embodiments. The thickness of the layer can be less than 5 coffee and preferably less than 2 mm. In some embodiments, the above may include a portion of the electronics module.

This may allow for the use of a replacement electronic module (such as 'if one or more of the electronic components fail or otherwise does not function as needed) without the need to purchase a new device. Additionally, embodiments may provide a single device (e.g., a single-type electronic eyewear or frame) for multiple purposes&apos; such as the sub-groups that may be included in the following description of the device: the devices described in detail. That is, for example, in one example, the electronics module can include a take-off electronics module and can be a new module: component. The J can be removed to couple the new core set to the housing module such that in another example, the same Thunder can be used as a pedometer and timer (or any other suitable function can be provided) ). In fact, any electronic component can be removed or removed (which can be included in the electronic device module in this regard). In some embodiments, the electronic device module can be adapted to be moved from the housing module. In addition to the _ external module. This side 160385.doc 107- 201234070 type, for example, can be replaced in the electronic device module: replace the power supply 'for example, if the power supply contains used batteries, etc., and (= function Other alternatives to other methods of electricity can still be used correctly. The user can remove only the electronics module 4 and replace an electronic component (eg, a sub-device module re-transfer or multiple batteries) and the electrical frame). a rim to outer casing module (which may, for example, still be lightly connected to the electronics. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the outer casing module may have a first-to-be-four outer end) And a body disposed between the first end and the first end. The first end may include a port. The electronic device module may be configured to be inserted into the opening. In an embodiment, the The electronics module can have an inch that is smaller than the opening, and thus can be inserted into the housing module using a fastener such as an adhesive: screw or any other suitable member. One or two % of the 'S electronics modules can be configured to be compressed in at least one direction (usually on the side perpendicular to the direction in which the module can be inserted into the housing module:). The electronics module (or a portion thereof) can comprise a flexible material that can be deformed by application of force but can return to the original shape. 4 In some embodiments, the electronics module can be press fitted to the housing Module, that is, for example, the electronic device module (or one thereof) The piece of the river expands into a section or section of the outer casing module such that it locks in place (and can thereby be coupled to the outer casing module). In this regard, the outer casing module can include a housing for receiving An opening of the expanded portion of the electronic device module. The electronic device module can be removed by applying a similar force to the expanded portion of the electronic device module in the same direction as 160385.doc -108 - 201234070 An example of such an embodiment will be illustrated and described herein with reference to Figures 26 and 27. However, embodiments are not limited thereto, and in some examples, the electronic device module can be inserted into the end of the housing module The opening σ has a compression of the size (for example, the electronic device module can be inserted into the opening and connected to the outer casing module by using a fastener). Ο Ο 中 'The electronic device module can Located in the body of the housing module, that is, for example, the electronic device module can be inserted through an opening of the housing module and then disposed inside the housing module and can be thereby detached to the frame. The housing module can be used to The sub-device module is interfaced to the frame and provides protection/electrical isolation of the electronic component module (and/or components thereof) relative to external forces. In this regard, in some embodiments, the housing module The group may comprise - a non-conductive material such as a resistance or carbon fiber. As mentioned above, this may prevent or inhibit external charges from affecting the operation of the electronic device. In addition, it is contemplated that the electronic eyeglass frame may be reported by the user for a long period of time. Wearing, using carbon fiber, plastic enamel, etc. may be lighter than some other materials, such as certain metals. This may be another factor that may be considered, however, embodiments are not limited thereto, and the housing module may include a metal such as Conductive materials, which in some instances may provide greater protection against physical forces, additional support to other structural components, and/or may be less susceptible to deformation or damage. In some embodiments, as described above In the first device, the germanium component can include a cavity in the first leg and the outer casing module can be selectively placed in the cavity. As used herein, "*心. Selecting a ten-place placement" may refer to the provision of the enclosure module as a separate group 4 * \ 160385.doc 201234070 by "snap" the enclosure module to In the temples and later added to the temples (and whereby the electronics module can also be provided separately and disposed within the housing module). In some embodiments, this may provide the advantage that the housing module can be individually designed and/or fabricated and can be placed later in the temples of different styles of frames. However, "selective placement" may also involve a process by which the housing module may not be removably coupled (ie, the housing module may be coupled to the structural component to This allows the housing module to be removed without damage or permanent changes). However, embodiments are not limited thereto and the housing module is selectively positionable within the cavity for removal therefrom. For example, in some embodiments, the housing module can be transferred to the muth embodiment using at least one of a fastening device (such as a screw) or an adhesive (such as a double-sided tape). The housing module can be selectively removed. However, it is possible to couple the housing module to any suitable manner of the cavity in the temple. In both embodiments, the housing module is press fit into the cavity in the first leg. As used herein, "pressure fit" may refer to, for example, when: the outer casing module is snapped into the cavity. That is, the housing module can include a portion that can be reduced in size after insertion, but can be expanded into the portion of the cavity such that it cannot be reduced by a similar size. . In this manner, the housing module can be removably attached so that it can then be engaged and released by applying a similar force (also #coupled and engaged). Additionally, some embodiments (where the housing module is disposed in one of the temples) provide some advantages. For example, in some embodiments, 160385.doc -110. 201234070 ^ The foot may comprise a poetic or nylon material. If the electronic device module is directly inserted into the cavity, the material containing the mirror can be deformed so as to be shaped like a shape of the electronic device module. The embodiment can provide an additional removal of the cavity to support the outer support of the core to prevent deformation of the cavity. In some embodiments, the housing module can be inserted into the cavity to include some or all of the electronic device module with the mirror, including the conductive material (such as _ metal). The feet are electrically isolated. That is, for example, the housing module Ο can include an insulating material to limit the amount of current that can flow from the temple to the electronics module. This current can affect the performance of such components and the components. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the first lens can be electrically connected to the electronic device module. That is, for example, the first device can include a conductive path from the electronics module to the lens coupled to the lens housing. As mentioned above, the housing module (and thereby the electronics module housed therein) can be attached to any of the structural components of the device (e.g., a temple, a lens housing, etc.). In embodiments where the lens housing is attached to one of the mirrors, the conductive path may comprise an embedded conductor (such as a conductive flexible material) and/or a circuit control via a hinge to the lens housing . The lens may comprise any additional electronic components required to provide a given functionality, such as changing the focal length of the lens of the book, varying the hue of the lens, and the like. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, wherein the first lens is electrically connected to the electronic device module, the electronic device module can be configured to generate a When supplied to the first lens 160385.doc • 111 - 201234070 Controller for changing signals. That is, for example, in some embodiments, it may be preferable to supply an AC signal to the electronic groups, and one or more of the members. This can, for example, produce a large peak-to-peak thunder, "Ping Wang pressure (for example, 20 volts), when coupled to an electro-acting lens, the voltage is increased by the resolution of the person (the same energy) Increasing power consumption and cost. In one embodiment, the sensing mechanism can be configured to provide an input to the &amp; controller for determining when to supply the time varying signal to the first pound That is, for example, the sensing module can be configured to receive an input (eg, if the user is wrong, the head is tilted or touches a switch), the input adapter Can be used to trigger the controller to supply A (such as on-off - "off" switching) or to adjust the signal (eg, adjust voltage, etc. In some embodiments, the power supply includes a battery. Generally speaking 'considering It is preferable to use a simple power supply in the structure of the structure, such as in the temple, and/or the relative module of the housing module, which is obtained by using a simple power supply. It should be understood that any of the $source m embodiments can be used, the controller can be packaged Including the body of the knife. Although it may be better in this case, as in the case of the second steam, it may be better (because it may reduce the space required by the controller), but the embodiment is not limited thereto and the controller Any combination of software and firmware may be included to provide a desired function. In some embodiments, the controller may include a voltage multiplier. The voltage multiplier may cooperate with a comparator i 竿A (eg, smaller) power supply is used to provide a higher voltage while minimizing the space required within the electronics module. However, 'if the voltage (or current) supplied by the power supply is sufficient) The embodiment does not have to utilize a voltage multiplier. In some embodiments, the controller is configured to

"Outside" may refer to the side of the housing module that is not facing the wearer's head (e.g., avoiding the side of the wearer's head). In this manner, and as mentioned above, the housing module does not have to completely enclose the entire electronic module. The aperture provides a means by which the wearer can interact with the electronics module disposed in the aperture. For example, in some embodiments, the apertures can have an area - approximately in the range of 1 Cm2 to 5 cm2. While the size can vary based on the application and use, this area is generally adapted to allow the wearer to manually interact with the sensing mechanism. For example, the sensing mechanism can include a touch sensitive switch that is substantially exposed via the aperture. As used herein, touch sensitive can include any switch that can be opened or closed by the touch of a wearer. This can include, for example, a capacitive switch or a membrane switch. As used herein, even if a thin insulator layer is placed on the touch sensitive component, the touch switch can be considered "exposed" (insofar as the wearer can interact with the touch sensitive switch), The switch is still exposed). That is, the term "exposure" is used to refer to a configuration in which the touch sensitive switch is not adequately covered so that it can respond to the user's touch. In this regard, in some embodiments, the use of a capacitive switch typically requires that the charge generated by interaction with the wearer be consumed. Otherwise, such a benefit may result in a short circuit condition, or may be erroneously activated: the lens is acted upon. Thus, an embodiment may require the use of an insulator, particularly when the housing module and/or the structural component of the frame comprises a conductive material. In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the structure 160385.doc •113· 201234070 The component includes the first temple of the electronic eyeglass frame. That is, for example, the housing module can be coupled to (eg, attached to) the first temple or its portion 8 / which can, for example, comprise a housing module that can be placed on the second . In an embodiment, the housing module can be attached to the temple, for example, as an extension of the temple, or an embodiment attached to the surface 7 of the temple, The housing module can be coupled to the temple and can also be coupled to an embodiment of the lens housing or the like. However, as mentioned above, in the embodiment, it may be preferred that the outer casing module conforms to the style (e.g., aesthetic) of the frame (e.g., or a portion thereof, such as the shape of the temple). In some embodiments, the first temple of an electronic eyeglass frame can include a first portion and a second portion. The first portion can be positioned closer to the first lens than the second portion, and the housing module can be attached to the first portion of the first temple. This may be preferred in some embodiments as it may utilize a shorter conductive path from the electronics module to any electronic device (including an electro-optical lens) that may be located on the lens housing. In a second embodiment, the outer casing module can be the first portion of the first temple. That is, as mentioned above, the housing module may be disposed between the lens housing and a portion of the temple, but may not be disposed in the temple (or in a cavity of the temple T) . The lens housing can be coupled to the temple in any suitable manner, including, for example, using a fastener (such as a screw) or an adhesive. In addition, in some embodiments, each of the lens housing and the temples may include one or more structural components such that the two components are connectable to each other. Embodiments may provide advantages such as, for example, allowing the fabrication of the electronics module to be separated from the temple and/or the lens housing (because the housing module can be coupled to this after 160385.doc -114.201234070) In addition, some embodiments may permit the fabrication of temples without forming a cavity (or other component for housing the housing module and/or electronics module therein), which may result in a frame assembly Higher structural stability.一些 ❹ In some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the housing module can comprise a conductive material such as a metal or a flexible conductive material. As mentioned above, in some embodiments, when the housing module includes a conductive material, the first device can further include an insulating material disposed between the housing module and the electronic module. As mentioned above, "placed between" may refer to a configuration in which the insulating layer electrically isolates the housing module from the electronic device module (and/or is disposed in the electronic device) Book sub-assembly in the module). As mentioned above, in some embodiments, when the housing module contains a conductive material, there may be a risk of shorting to the electronic components. In addition, in some embodiments in which a sensing mechanism such as a touch switch (eg, a power switch) can be used, 'if the housing module includes a conductive material, the user can generate a temperature loss when the switch is activated. What is the power of the device (for example, 'the charge can be stored on the housing module? This can cause the sensing module % ^ , (the other components) to receive the wearer's undesired

In some embodiments, in the first device described in ^ ρ π M ^-r ^ , the outer casing group may include - no thunder ^ ^ ^ Λ wide. For example, the housing module can comprise a plastic knee (e.g., acetate) or a good one because it may not require the electron to be an additional insulator in some embodiments. In the case of only 10,000 pieces between each &amp; module and the outer casing module, the structural component may also contain a 160385.doc -115. 201234070 non-conductive material. That is, for example, the outer casing module and the structural member may comprise 3 non-conductive materials. This may be preferred in some embodiments, as the electrical isolation from the electronic device module to the 'or other electronic components disposed on the frame of the electronic glasses—or multiple conductive paths may be more easily achieved. In the embodiment, the structural component may comprise any one of a plastic or a nylon or a combination. In some embodiments, the structural component comprises acetate. Acetic acid vinegar may be preferred in some embodiments because it is the framework of the k: the common material used. However, as mentioned above, the intrusion of the electronic device into the acetate frame without the additional support provided by the outer casing module can result in deformation of the structural component. It should be understood that any suitable non-conductive material can be used for the structural component and or the outer casing module. In some embodiments, in the first device (wherein the housing module may comprise - a non-conductive material) as described above, the structural component may comprise a second electrically conductive material. #为, the outer casing module may comprise materials such as plastic (e.g., vinegar), nylon, etc., and (d) to the structural component of the outer casing module may comprise - a material such as metal. The housing module can be configured or positioned to: the m sub-device module (and/or the electronic components disposed within the electronics module) and the structural component (and the frame). That is, for example, the housing module can be disposed in the cavity of the structural component, and (4) the electronic device group can be disposed in the housing module. The housing module can substantially house or enclose the electronics module (or at least a portion of the electronics module that can be electrically connected to the structural component or another portion of the frame) to electrically isolate one another. In some embodiments, the outer casing may be reddish and/or the structural π member may have one or more apertures to enable a wearer to interact with the electronic device module 160385.doc - 116 - 201234070 ( ( (eg, via A sensing mechanism, such as a touch sensitive switch). In some embodiments, the housing module may not be disposed within the structural component, but may, for example, be coupled thereto (e.g., coupled to a portion of the structural component). The electronics module can be disposed within the housing module such that it is electrically isolated from the structural component by a housing module that includes a non-conductive material. In this manner, the embodiment can reduce the risk of short circuit problems in the electronic device module and potentially increase the performance and responsiveness of the electronic device module (including, for example, a touch sensitive switch that can generate a charge to be dissipated) Example). In some embodiments, in the first device (wherein the outer module can comprise - a non-conductive material) as described above, the electronic device module can comprise a conductive material. As mentioned above, in some embodiments, the use of a conductive material for the electronic device module may be beneficial for manufacturing and/or durability purposes. However, embodiments are not limited thereto, and in some examples, the shell module and the electronic device may comprise a non-conductive material insulating material. In some embodiments, 'in the first device as described above (the shell module comprises a non-conducting, thick, and a small conductive material 枓), the first device can enter _ have - the first The first lens of the electrical contact, and a conductive path of an electrical contact (eg, electrical g Μ , see for example electrical coupling). The group may also have a - electrical contact. The conductive path can be the first electrical contact of the device module. In this way, the ohmic electronic sub-module module and the galvanic column can provide a conductive path between the _^. The Φ 2 -piece module can include functionality for controlling the lens - (10) changing the focal length, hue, providing an inter-optical effect error by the component and being controllable by the i603S5.doc -1J7-201234070 sensing module ( For example, by using the touch of the wearer or the skew of the wearer's head, etc.). In some embodiments, the conductive path can include at least one magazine pin. The spring pin can be used to maintain the electrical path even if, for example, the temple does not form a right angle with the housing, or if other factors increase the size of the conductive path between the lens housing and the electronics module. In some embodiments, the electrically conductive path can include a spring hinge. The push button may be preferred in some embodiments as it may be used to hold the electronic frame against the mouth p of the wearer. The embodiment can provide a conductive path by utilizing a conductive path through an elastic key, regardless of the angle of change between the lens housing and the temple. In some embodiments, the electrically conductive path can comprise a non-conductive element. As mentioned above, the flexible conductive element can be used to form a stable electrical connection with the electroactive lens. In addition, the flexible conductive member can be easily applied to a small area as needed and has a prefabricated design. In some embodiments, in the above module, there may be - less than or equal to approximately 〇7 卜 飞 寺 in a thickness of approximately 0.7 mm. As used herein, the "thickness" of the Qianxin group can refer to the side of the outer casing module: a: a dimension perpendicular to the direction of the electronic device module. For the two-two, it is effective for many sensing mechanisms (such as touch switches): the thickness of the group is greater than =4. At the time of .7mm, the thickness of the capacitor switch can be lowered. The thickness of the capacitor switch can be set on the basis of the thickness of the lens shell of the mountain knife. Because it can be seen from the outside, the shell module Thick outside the group for the wearer to tap. Another use of the face of the female. The electronic device module can be used to allow for the provision of more advanced electronic components, &amp; / or more electronic components (for example, the house benefits) and / the large pen device housing module. However, the reduced thickness can weaken the structural support of the outer casing module and/or reduce its insulating properties (when the outer casing module does not contain a conductive material). The inventors have discovered that in some embodiments, the outer casing module can have a thickness of less than or equal to a thickness of approximately 0.5, and the outer casing module can have a thickness less than or equal to approximately 0.3 mm. Ο Ο In some embodiments, a first method of making a device can also be provided. The method can include fabricating or fabricating a frame having a first temple, a second temple, and a housing module, the housing module including a first end, a second end, and a first a body between the end and the second end and a cavity disposed in the body. That is, for example, the method can be applied to an electronic device that can include an outer casing module having an area (the electronic gdu γ 2 u can be located therein) (for example, a cavity) Thousand glasses. An example of such an embodiment is not shown in Figure 16. The first end can include an opening. The first method may further include inserting an electronic component such as a gamma bucket, a #^Li^, and (or a plurality of electronic components) into the opening of the peripheral module such that 唁. The 屯子屯子件 module can be placed in the cavity of the outer scorpion group. As described above, the method of fabricating the device by opening one of the ends of the outer group and the outer portion of the group can be used to mold the electronic device. Defeat + ^ ± , a ^ ^ Chess, and the text is placed in the shell module (and the electronic device is coupled to the frame), and the electronic device can be protected by clips because (for example) Fewer electronic components can be exposed to direct through force (especially when the frame is in use, A4, because the opening may be covered by other components (such as the lens housing)). In some embodiments, as described above, the method can further include removing the electron 160385.doc-119- via the port between the housing module (and/or the temple). a device module (ie, a first electronic device module), and an electronic device module (ie, a second electronic device module) is inserted into the opening of the housing module to enable the first The two outer casing modules are disposed in the cavity of the outer casing module. In this manner, in some embodiments, the electronics module can be removed and replaced with a new electronics module that can include providing different functionality (by thereby providing an increase for the same electronic frame) The flexibility and functionality of the electronics can be used to replace defective or depleted electronics (such as when a power supply is exhausted). In this regard, in some embodiments, the first electronic device module and the second electronic device module can be different electronic device modules. However, the embodiment is not limited thereto, and in some examples, the first electronic device module and the second electronic device module may be the same electronic device module (for example, the modules are the same module or the like The module contains the same components). As mentioned above, some embodiments may provide the advantage of being able to replace components within an electronic device module without having to replace the entire module. In addition, by using a method of removing and inserting a module through an opening in the end of the housing module, in contrast to an embodiment in which an adhesive and/or a fastener may be applied to an electronic device module, the embodiment It provides a quick and easy way to access electronic components and make electronic components changeable. A second method can also be provided. The second method can include a method of fabricating (e.g., fabricating) a device including a frame having a first temple and a second temple.

As mentioned above, inserting the outer casing module into the cavity through an opening may couple the outer casing wedge set and/or the electronic device module to the structural component (in this case, the mirror) An efficient manner of the foot), particularly when the housing module is press fit to snap into place when it is inserted into one of the ends of the temple. The provision does not necessarily require the advantage of a fastener (such as a screw) or adhesive coupling the housing module to the temple (which allows for easier removal and/or re-coupling of the housing module) . In addition, it may be more efficient to slide the housing module through one end into the temple (rather than directly sliding into the body) because it allows the housing module and/or the electronics module to be Compressed in the vertical direction (i.e., perpendicular to the direction of the body of the temple). In addition, inserting the housing module into one of the ends of the structural member provides an efficient replacement of the housing module (and/or an electronics module that can be disposed in the housing module) in an electronic eyeglass frame the way. In some embodiments, the first method as described above may further include removing the outer casing module from the first cavity via the opening σ of the temple, and inserting the n-shell module into the The opening of the temple is σ such that the housing module is placed in the cavity of the first temple. Removing the housing module provides easy access to the electronics module in which the child is placed. It also provides an efficient replacement of components. In some embodiments, the outer casing module and the second outer casing module are the same outer casing module. That is, as mentioned above, in some of the examples, the 11 匕 method can be used to replace only some of the electronic component components that can include the electronic device module or to replace the electronic device module itself. The 160385.doc -121 - 201234070 outer fork set can thereby be replaced without being replaced, and can be reattached to the structural component (eg, a temple or a cavity therein) and includes a new or Modified electronic device module. Therefore, in some embodiments, a second electronic device module (or a plurality of electronic components) can be associated with the electronic device module (or multiple electronic components) and the external device module. Two outer casing modules are cooperatively inserted into the cavity. However, the embodiment is not limited thereto, and thereby, in some implementations, the outer casing module and the outer module may be different outer casing modules. This exemplary method may be in some cases (where the housing module may need to be replaced (eg, if the external module is damaged or defective), or for example, when the electronic device module and the housing module It is used in a way that it may not be easy to consume and re-purify and the electronic component module is to be replaced. In this regard, in some embodiments, the electronic device module (or electronic components) can be removed from the housing module. In some embodiments, the first method as described above may further include removing the housing module from the first cavity via the opening of the temple without removing the electronics module. Also, for example, the electronic device module can be disposed (e.g., within) the housing module, but need not be coupled thereto. The external module can provide structural support for portions of structural components located near or around the electronics module. The housing module can be removed and replaced, for example, in the event of damage. In some instances, the aesthetic zone can be removed and replaced (e.g., the wearer changes the style of the frame and/or other components of the frame). In some embodiments, in the first method as described above, the step of inserting the electronic device module into the housing module may include coupling the housing 160385.doc -122-201234070 module Connected to the electronic device module. In some embodiments, in the first method as described above, the housing module can be inserted into the opening of the temple before the electronic module is inserted into the housing module. An electronic device module can then be inserted into the housing module. In this way, each component can be manufactured and assembled in different stages. Although described above, Figures 6 and 7 will now be described in greater detail. Figure 16 illustrates an exemplary embodiment of an electronic frame including a housing module 16〇3. 4 70 pieces 16〇1 may be provided, which in some embodiments may comprise a conductive material (such as steel) and may be coupled to the temples 16〇2 or disposed within the temples 1602 to provide a component to another A portion of the conductive path of a component and/or a structural branch # is provided for the mirror. As shown, the cores can, for example, provide a conductive path from the end of the temple (which can include, for example, a power source) to the electronics module. A housing module 16〇3 is shown that can house (eg, include) an electronics module 1605 and can be coupled to the temples 16〇2. In some embodiments, the housing module 1603 can comprise a conductive material (e.g., metal). However, as mentioned above, in some examples, the inventors have discovered that the use of a conductive material for the housing module 1603 can affect (or interfere with) electronic components (eg, in electronic device modules) and/or Or a sensing component or mechanism (such as switch 1604, which may include a capacitive switch). Thus, in an embodiment, an insulating material can be disposed between the housing module 1603 and any electronic components of the electronic frame (e.g., electronics module 16〇5). In addition, in the second embodiment, an insulating material may be disposed between the outer casing module bo] and the sensing component (eg, the capacitive touch switch) to dissipate any charge that can be generated and/or stored by the cut (or In other ways, the electronic device is insulated from the electric I60385.doc •] 23· 201234070). This prevents charge from affecting the electronic device, which can result in unpredictable behavior (e.g., startup/deactivation of the electronic device when it is not desired or not) or damage to the component. In a two-part embodiment, the housing module 1603 can include a knife 162, that is, for example, and as shown in FIG. 6, the housing module can be disposed on the portion of the foot 1602 and the lens. Between the outer casings. This may be better in some embodiments because it allows each component to be manufactured in a separate process and then split at a later time point. The outer casing module and the other knife of the temple (e.g., the end portion of the temple 1602) and/or the lens housing can be attached in any suitable manner. The core ι(4) ΰ shown in the exemplary embodiment of Fig. 16 is at least a portion of the temple 1 602 and is shared by the housing module i6〇3 to couple the components. In addition, in some embodiments, the switch 1604 (such as a capacitor or "cap" switch) can be used to consume the electronics module 16〇5 and/or the electronics module housing 6 to provide a Switching or controlling the electronic device module 1605. For example, and as shown in FIG. 16, the electronic device module housing 1 603 can have an opening that allows the wearer to interact with the switch 16〇4 to turn a function on or off or The way to change the functionality provided by the electronic glasses. The electronics module 1605 switch 1604 and the electronics module housing 1603 can be transferred using any suitable (including the one shown in Figure 16 or a plurality of screws). Other methods may be used as mentioned above, such as the press fit - or multiple components as described below with reference to Figures 26 and 27 . A conductor or plurality of conductors 1606 can also be included to provide - or multiple electrical contacts (e.g., conductive paths) from the electronics module 16〇5 to the lens housing. Conductor 1606 can be, for example, electrically coupled to - or a plurality of conductive paths provided by flexible conductive element 14G1 as shown in Figures 160385.doc-124-201234070 14 and Figure 15. Also shown is a hinge 16〇7 that can be coupled to the temple 丨(9)^ or a group thereof (such as the housing module 1603) and also to the lens housing. The hinges 16 can provide each of these components with the ability to move relative to the other while holding the handle. In some embodiments, the hinge 16〇7 may comprise two or more conductors, or may itself comprise a conductive material to form a conductive path or portion thereof. Figure 17 illustrates the components shown in Figure 16 that are lightly coupled together in an exemplary embodiment. As can be seen, the conductive flexible member 16〇1 is no longer visible because it is embedded within the temple 1602. Similarly, the electronics module "is still housed within the housing pack 1603 and is covered on one side by the switch 1604 (and possibly coupled to the switch 1604). In particular, the enclosure model is considered to contain The switch, even if the switch may not be included in the module itself, is hinged to the electronics module housing 16〇3. The conductors 16A can be substantially embedded within the hinge 1607 and/or portions of the electronics module housing 16〇3 to form a portion of the conductive path between the electronics module 1604 and the lens housing. Referring to FIG. 26 , an exemplary embodiment of the touch switch 2600 is shown, for example, as shown. The touch switch 2600 can include a raised or raised relative to the remaining structure of the touch switch 2602 (ie, from the remaining structure). One or more sections (2601 and 2603) that extend out. These portions 26〇1 and 26〇3 can extend beyond the or multiple apertures in the housing module such that the wearer can interact with the touch switch to send a control signal to the electronics in the housing module. As mentioned above, in some embodiments, the thickness of the outer casing module can preferably be less than 0.7 mm thick, so that the touch switch can protrude beyond the aperture and still effectively pair 160385.doc 125· 201234070 by the wearer's finger The signal provided by the tap produces a response. In some embodiments, the touch switch can include portions labeled 2601 and 2603, and the electronic device module can include a portion 2602 (ie, the touch switch can form one or more surfaces of the electronic device module, or directly Coupled to the electronics module). Additionally, in some embodiments, the touch switch 2600 can form a pressure that can be inserted into the housing module (eg, through one of the openings) by being compressed in one or more dimensions. Cooperate with one part of the electronic device module. When the electronic component module is subsequently inserted for placement in the housing module, the portions of the compressed electronic device module are expandable and "snap" to the appropriate position (ie, the portions are structurally coupled to Shell module). For example, when an electronic device module including touch switch 2600 is inserted into a housing module, portions 2601 and/or 2603 can extend into one or more of the apertures of the housing module. Once this occurs, the electronics module can be coupled to the housing module such that an inward force is applied to portions 2601 and 2603 prior to removal of the electronics module. Referring to Figure 27, an exemplary housing module 270 1 is shown that includes an electronics module disposed therein. The exemplary housing module 2701 is shown with an opening 2702 in one end into which an electronics module can be selectively inserted. That is, for example, the electronics module can be inserted into the opening 2702 and slid into the housing module 2701 for placement within the body of the housing module 2701 (e.g., within a cavity). In some embodiments, the electronics module can be press-fitted such that when the electronics module is inserted into the opening 2702 and fully disposed within the housing module 2701, the portion 2703 of the electronics module can extend to The outer casing of the outer casing module 2701 is snapped into place. 160385.doc -126- 201234070 In some implementations, portions 27〇3 of the electronics module may include a touch sensitive switch (such as a capacitive or membrane switch)' but embodiments are not limited thereto. For example, portion 2703 can include any portion of an electronics module. In addition, an optional screw 2704 or other fastener can be used to couple the housing module 27〇1 to another structural component of the electronic eyeglass frame (eg, (4) to the mirror arm in the Ο

In addition, Figure 27 shows an embodiment in which (4) 2705 is lightly attached to the housing module 27〇1, which can be used to lightly attach the housing module 27〇1 to another structural component of the frame, such as a lens housing. In some embodiments, an outer casing module as defined above may be used to cover or enclose an electronic device; Some embodiments may serve several purposes including, for example, electrically isolating electronic device modules and electronic frames, electrical sub-device modules and external components and forces, or both. Additionally, in some embodiments, the housing module can secure the electronics module to the electronic eyeglass frame. Embodiments may also provide structural components (such as '(4) temples) that allow the electronic device module to be selectively placed (ie, 'attached or (four) to) - an electronic eyeglass frame - and optionally from the structure The advantages of component removal. In this manner, embodiments can provide the ability to quickly and efficiently vary electronic device modules. °° 160385.doc •127· 201234070 Contains the implementation of the appearance.

However, 2 Examples are not limited to this and can be of any type Any spear-like appearance is used on the mirror housing. The T-mirror frame provides both the functional and aesthetic value to the wearer. As noted above, the beta and eyeglass frames are often styled and typically require the eyeglass frame to have a shape that the wearer deems appropriate. In this regard, in some instances, the electronic components of the electronic glasses can be generally attractive and/or additional structures can be added and the component 2 can be added to the H. @ &amp; 'In maintaining the aesthetics and functionality of the electronic glasses: It may be preferable to read external observers to conceal or otherwise hide such components on the same day. * In some instances, this may be achieved by utilizing the structural components of the lens (by embedding the components in the temples of the frame); This may not be possible, and/or may not be suitable for other parts of the frame (such as for components on the lens 160385.doc -128-201234070). These methods may also increase the cost and complexity of manufacturing electronic beech. And in some cases may affect the structural integrity of the frame (eg, structural components may be unstable and may not be able to withstand: the same amount of force in the normal frame without breaking In addition, embedding electronic components in a frame may make access and/or maintenance of such components more difficult. In some instances, 'a single electronic frame may be required for multiple functions, and whereby electronic components may have to be changed or Replacement with other components without the need to extensively fabricate or damage the electronic frame. In some embodiments, an appearance can be provided that can be used to provide aesthetic value and/or hide or conceal aesthetically unpleasant components, such as with A component associated with an electronic component. Additionally, in some embodiments, the appearance can be a separate component that can be attached to a structural component (such as a lens housing or temple) and thereby can be - different from the electronic frame Made in the process of components. In some instances, a single style or type of appearance can be used for multiple types of electronic frames, which can reduce manufacturing costs. Moreover, in some examples and as described in greater detail below, the appearance may be detachable (4) or reattachable such that one appearance may be another appearance of the electronic frame (4). In this way, for example, the user can change the shape of the electronic frame without changing (or damaging) the base frame or components therein. This can essentially provide the user with the ability to have different styles of frames (or different styles of frame shapes) by merely replacing the appearance attached to the lens housing or other structural components. In addition, in some cases, the use of external and external use reduces the cost and complexity of manufacturing electronic eyeglass frames, and in some embodiments reduces the formation to electricity 160385.doc -129- 201234070 The complexity and fabrication of electrical connections with lenses (or other electronic components). For example, in some embodiments, a conductive path from an electronic component (such as a power supply, controller, and/or other component that can be placed, for example, in a female device module) can be partially fabricated. Ground exposure. The appearance can be used to conceal this part of the edge guiding circuit, i, can also be used to protect the road grip and isolate it from the outside. In this manner, in some embodiments, the electrically conductive path (or a portion thereof) need not be directly embedded or fabricated into the electronic eyeglass frame. In addition to these connections (especially in frameless or semi-frameless frame designs) Bb can be more versatile but for style purposes, the wearer may need a semi-frameless or full frame design, respectively. Appearances can be used in these examples to provide different styles of framework while allowing for the provision of eyeglass frames that provide the functionality and/or structure of the different styles of frames. Illustrative Embodiments of Appearance Electronic Eyeglass Frames Other illustrative embodiments of electronic frames are provided below. These examples are provided for illustrative purposes only. Further, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that, after reading this disclosure, various combinations of components discussed above or below may be made. In this regard, embodiments may provide an electronic frame that includes an appearance. A first device including a lens can be provided, wherein the lens can further include a lens housing and a first temple and a second temple coupled to the lens housing. The lens housing can support a first lens and a second lens (or other optical component). The first lens and the second lens may be electro-mechanical lenses; however, the embodiment is not limited thereto. The first device can further include an appearance that covers the lens housing. As used herein, the term "covering" may refer to when the appearance provides aesthetic value while covering at least a portion of the lens housing of at least 160385.doc-130-201234070. However, the appearance does not have to enclose the lens housing or enclose the entire lens housing to "cover" it but the appearance obscures the lens housing (or portion thereof) so that the viewer does not see it (typically from the front view). That is, and as described above, the appearance may be provided for cosmetic reasons and may cover, for example, the front portion of the lens housing (ie, the portion of the lens housing that avoids (4)); however, 'implementation' The example is not limited thereto, as the appearance can be located on any part of the frame truss. Examples of embodiments containing appearance are shown in Figures 28 and 29 and described in detail below. The first device can further include an electronic component and can provide at least one electrically conductive path from the electronic component to the first lens having a portion extending through the lens housing. As used in this context, the term "through" may mean that a conductor (such as a '-wire or conductive rubber) may be disposed within (or affixed to) the lens housing or the lens housing (or component thereof) itself. When it is conductive. As mentioned above, the electronic component can comprise any electrical device or component thereof, and in some embodiments, the electrical device or component thereof can include an electronic device module: described above. For example, an electronic stage component can include a power source such that the first conductive path can drive current or electricity from the electronic component (e.g., a battery) to the first lens or any other component. The electronic component can also include any other component of the electronics module, such as a speaker or sensor mechanism. The or the electronic components can provide electronic eyeglass frames = functionality that provides or enhances the aesthetic value and appearance of their identical frames. Forces - these embodiments may thereby provide the functional advantages of an electronic eyeglass frame having a desired aesthetic appearance. For example, by using an appearance, the embodiment I60385.doc-131 · 201234070 can be described as a frameless or semi-frameless electronic eye that is semi-infinite or full-frame frame: frame, M, some embodiments can be Providing a sense of versatility with other frame designs (eg, when the frames contain a semi-frameless or frameless design behind the exterior, the appearance can be imparted to the front of the metal or plastic (such as the zyle style) The advantages associated with a semi-frameless or frameless design (for example, in some examples, it is easier to access electronic components or electrical paths placed in them, making less material, etc.) ).

In some examples, this may provide an advantage, as it may not be necessary to provide a self-shaping foot a conductive path to the lens housing (or to the electro-optical lens). Additionally, in some examples, the appearance can be placed to cover the surface of the electronic component or to obscure the electronic component to the viewer, regardless of the (d) being located on the lens housing or on the temple. In an embodiment, the first device including an outer appearance as described above may be provided from the electronic component to the second lens having a portion extending through the outer periphery of the lens At least one lightning _ electrical path. That is, for example, in some embodiments, one (or more) electronic groups, the first lens and the first lens (and the first lens) are In this manner, a single 'mirror' can be an electro-optical electronic component (such as a power source that controls the hammer to provide functionality to the electronic components on the two sub-frames: thereby reducing the number of electrical H-pieces that may be required. The conductive path can be The mirror housing is provided through the lens housing (eg, by an embedded conductive element) and/or by a light guide member that is coupled to the lens housing. The appearance can be provided to the 160385.doc -133- 201234070 Some or all of the conductive paths of the two lenses. As mentioned above, in some embodiments, in the first device as described above, the appearance may cover a portion of the lens housing. The appearance does not necessarily have to cover the entire lens housing of the electronic frame. In some embodiments, the 戎 appearance is coupled to the electronic frame to cover only the front of the lens housing, which is often the most significant portion of the lens housing to the viewer. The appearance can be coupled to the front of the housing using any suitable component (including (by example only) adhesive (eg double-sided tape), fasteners (such as screws), or the lens can be configured structurally For storage and face to the appearance. For example, D 'the outer lens of the lens may include a slot or a recess, and the appearance may include a corresponding structural component 'which can be inserted into the slot or recess and thereby blessing the two components (or vice versa) However, any sigma-suitable member that couples the components may be used, for example, in some embodiments, the appearance (or component thereof) may be press-fitted to insert into the opening of the lens housing, and Expanding (i.e., "snap" to position) to lightly apply the two devices, the appearance may cover only the top: portion of the lens housing (such as if one or more electronic components are located The lens housing is topped on the boring tool and needs to be concealed or covered only by its components). In some f (e.g., in a semi-hot frame embodiment), the appearance may be such that only the lens housing does not contain a hi. The enthalpy is divided and can be used to impart a shape to the outer lens frame. Wang Wei can often refer to observers watching: "In this context, 吏 (4) may have the feeling of the _ temple component when looking at the device or its parts. Similarly, in some embodiments (such as 160385.doc • 134-201234070 when the electronic frame includes a frameless design), the appearance can provide a semi-frameless eyeglass frame shape, and thereby only need to cover the frameless One of the corresponding parts of the frame. In fact, in general and as mentioned above, in some embodiments, the portion of the lens housing that covers the lens housing that is less noticeable to the viewer, such as the back side of the lens housing, may not be necessary. However, embodiments are not limited thereto, and in some examples, in the first device as described above, the appearance covers the entire lens housing. This can be advantageous because the appearance can provide a desired shape regardless of the angle at which the viewer views the device. However, providing a full or substantially overall appearance covering the lens housing increases the cost and complexity of the appearance, including, in some instances, the difficulty of coupling the appearance to the electronic frame and decoupling. In some embodiments, in the first device that includes an appearance as described above, the lens housing can comprise a frameless or semi-frameless eyeglass frame. In this regard, in some embodiments, the lens housing can include at least one of one or more screws (e.g., frameless frame design) or frame edges (e.g., semi-frameless or full frame design). As noted above, the appearance can provide a frameless frame (eg, a frame that does not include a frame edge and/or has a lens housing that includes a lens or one or more screws) to be a semi-frameless or full frame. The shape of the eyeglass frame. Similarly, in some embodiments, the appearance may provide a semi-kill-free (e.g., a frame comprising some (but not all) of the perimeter of the lens around the outer edge of the lens) to the shape of the full-rim eyeglass frame. This can, for example, provide the wearer with the desired shape while manufacturing the electronic frame, and can use a material that is more functional but less suitable for style or aesthetics (the mouth is &quot; And other components) and so on. In some embodiments, the outer 160385.doc • 135. 201234070 view may even be used to cover a portion of a full frame electronic frame. For example, if the full-frame design uses components that are not pleasing to the touch (but may be suitable for use in a mirror, such as a component of a frame, electronic f 3 ¥ electrical material), then this may be the case. This appearance can be used to cover the unattractive features of the &gt; hemp, and is also used to cover the electrical connections between components. In addition, the use of this appearance allows the style of the full-frame glasses to change without important parts.纟+« or, therefore, as mentioned above, although the bran is as good as above, the appearance can be used to provide glasses with a frame that utilizes more. For example, in the case of "φ", "the embodiment is not limited to", the appearance can be provided on the lens casing and the frame-designed glasses to provide a full frame frame shape. The lens housing may comprise a semi-frameless design, and the appearance may also provide a semi-frameless design. In some embodiments, the lens overlay may include a frameless design, and the appearance may provide a The rimless eyeglass frame is shaped. These embodiments enable the use to customize the shape and/or variation of the lens housing while still maintaining the frame design feature H1, such that the appearance can include a different color, design, material And/or otherwise provided - different shapes. In addition, the appearance can also be used to conceal or cover - or a plurality of conductive paths (or electronic components) that are otherwise visible (or exposed) in such embodiments. In the example, the appearance may be obscured-conducting path in the first device including the appearance as described above. The use of the term "shadowing" in this context may refer to when the appearance is concealed by the obscured object (here Case guide Bifurcation path or a portion thereof), or otherwise is shielded so that when viewed 160385.doc -136- 201234070 article becomes difficult. &quot;Concealer&quot; may include, for example, covering all or substantially all of a component (e.g., a portion of a component that includes a conductive path), or only those components that are exposed or otherwise visible to an observer. As mentioned above, the conductive circuit 4 can comprise any type of conductive material, including (by way of example) - (d) to the lens housing or or substantially in the lens housing (or other conductive material) (or other conductive material) , such as a conductive wood J. raw material as described above).

For example, if the conductive path includes a wire attached to the lens housing (e.g., on an outer surface), the appearance can be positioned such that the conductor is not perceived by an external viewer of the electronic frame. In some embodiments, particularly in embodiments comprising a frameless or semi-frameless frame, the conductive path comprising a conductive flexible material (e.g., conductive rubber) may be preferred because the material can be easily placed, for example. In one of the grooves outside the lens and / or lens. However, this material may comprise a significant color, shape and/or shape. In some instances, the use of the appearance provides the advantage that the conductive material does not have to be painted, colored, or otherwise altered to be less noticeable, and still allows the material to be positioned on the lens housing without the use of an appearance. The position clearly seen by the observer. In some embodiments, in the first interface including an appearance as described above, the conductive path may also comprise the lens housing itself (or a portion thereof), i.e., the lens housing may comprise a conductive material. The portion of the lens housing that includes the conductive path can be a different material than the other portions of the lens housing, and this difference in material can be noted without additional concealment procedures. The appearance can be used in these embodiments to mask or cover such unevenness. The electronic frame is rendered as a uniform material and composition. In some embodiments, the first device t includes an appearance as described above, and as mentioned above, the appearance can be coupled to the lens housing using an adhesive material. In general, any bonding material that can suitably couple the appearance to the lens housing, such as a double sided tape or an epoxy glue, can be used. In some embodiments, the appearance may be coupled to the lens housing using one or more fasteners, such as one or more screws, in the first device as described above. Fasteners of this type may be preferred in some embodiments because the device can be designed such that the wearer (or a person or machine that is part of the manufacturing process) can easily align the appearance with the lens housing. That is, the locations of the screws on both the lens housing and the exterior such that when the screws are properly inserted, the appearance is positioned to cover the lens housing - the desired knife can reduce the use of adhesive Human errors that may occur (for example, alignment may not be accurate enough). In some embodiments, the first appearance that includes an appearance as described above can be removably coupled to the lens housing. The term "removably" means that the appearance is coupled to the lens housing for ease of use. The embodiment of the lens housing or the eight-piece structure and function of the electronic frame is attached and removed without affecting the appearance of the electronic frame. For example, the appearance can be attached to the lens housing using - or a screw - such that the wearer (or, for example:) can take the appearance from the lens housing by unscrewing (eg, removing) the screw Decoupling and then re-synthesizing the appearance or - different appearance by reinserting the or the screws. However, any suitable component can be utilized. For example, in some embodiments, the appearance and the lens housing can be set to 160385.doc -138 &gt; 201234070 to have the appearance having a structural portion that is connected (eg, insertable into a groove or a cavity) to the lens housing such that the two components are connected. These components can be manipulated by applying a suitable force in a particular direction. For example, the lens housing and the exterior can be configured such that the appearance is press fit to the lens housing.实施 实施 Embodiments that include a removably coupled appearance provide some advantages. For example, some embodiments may permit different appearances to be used for the same basic electronic framework. This allows an electronic frame to be provided in different styles without the need to buy multiple electronic frames (which can increase the cost). In addition, the ability to face the appearance of the lens housing (or other portion of the frame) and decoupling may permit access to one or more components that are typically covered by the appearance. For example, if the appearance covers an electronic component and the component needs to be removed, replaced, or otherwise interacted with, a removably worn appearance can be removed from the electronic frame to provide this proximity. .

The sensor (or other input component) can be configured to receive a command from the wearer and to communicate to the controller to communicate the command or information to the remote device. For example, a particular predefined finger movement can be used to touch or press a sensor that can be placed on the side of the temple of the eyepiece to indicate different desired functionality, which can be very convenient for the elderly. The controller can then utilize the predefined functions and corresponding instructions stored in the memory device to identify the instructions to the remote device that correspond to the desired function requested by the wearer. The controller can then use the transmitter to wirelessly transmit this information to the remote device. The data collection unit electronic glasses may include information that may be used by the wearer to remember, the wearer's environment, or other suitable information, in some embodiments, the switchable angle of the information piece, the two sequential battery charges in some implementations In the example, the information collection unit for the wearer is recorded. For example, it may include manually controlling the time interval between the mirrors, the behavior of the wearer or the physical state (such as daily calorie burn rate, instant pulse, skin moisture, daily UV exposure), and the like. The data collection unit may include one or more sensors, a controller, and/or a material device for accessing the material, or the data collection 160385.doc -155. 201234070 is operatively coupled to Any of the components described in the modules above. The collected data can be transmitted wirelessly to devices with high computing power (for example, using an antenna and connected to a network such as a mobile device network) or stored in a memory resident in the module and Data is collected and transmitted (for example, using the Lights (1) module or physical interface). The receiving device can, for example, use artificial intelligence to analyze assets for a particular application, such as training software to reset personalized control parameters, or to provide recommendations for the wearer's daily activities. In some embodiments, the ancestors 隹 $ — &amp; take the funds stored in the electronic framework; the set is early; ^ is the unit separate from the frame / lens electronics that can be used. For example, the information stored in the lens electronics is passed to the remote unit for analysis. Data transfer can be relayed via wireless or 有 links including, for example, infrared or radio frequency. The data can be stored in the frame electronics for a long time: and is collected (or transmitted) periodically, or as mentioned above, there may be transient data collection in some examples. . Embodiments comprising a moisture barrier layer for inclusion of an electronic frame - this can be placed on the electronic frame ":: (The electronic frames can include one component (or components) that are lightly attached to a lens housing and Electrically connectable, the inventors have found that between the lenses (a), the problem that moisture can affect the H-state of these components can affect the electrical path placed in the electro-acting lens. Electrical contact between the components and the inconsistency of the components placed on the outside of the lens. The hole is inconsistent with the power of the lens. 385385.doc -156- 201234070 and / or cause the component n failed connection (also That is, the electrical path can be severed so that current cannot flow between the components. The inventors have found that this is particularly prevalent for electrical connections formed around the perimeter of an electro-acting lens. ❹ Ο Based on (10) such as (4) The process (eg, the connection may not be completely sealed to the external environment) or even due to degradation of the component during use (which may form a gap between the components or otherwise expose electrical connections between the components) The opening, the moisture can contact the conductive path between the electronic components on the electronic frame that are virtually disposed in the electronically actuated lens. In fact, the inventors have discovered that the salt (four)) (which can be worn from the wearer's skin or out The sweat contact lens can degrade the components of the electronic eyewear (such as a lens) and thereby form an opening and/or otherwise expose the conductive path and degrade it. In some embodiments, a first device can be provided. The device may include a lens including at least one first-snow joint, a lens holder U holding the lens, the lens housing including at least a second electrical contact, and a first-to-the-electric contact a conductive element between the second electrical contacts, wherein the electrical component is electrically connected to the first electrical contact and the second electrical contact. The first device comprises a barrier layer disposed thereon Covering at least a portion of the electrically conductive material. The "p ° hai oh early wall layer" may be placed to cover the conductor (or a portion thereof) of the periphery of the lens such that the conductor is not exposed to the clothing. As mentioned above, the inventors have found that the electrical interaction, the location between the lens housings, tends to be where the conductors are exposed. The barrier layer may also be moisture resistant so that the barrier: in some embodiments, the barrier layer of the moisture barrier material 160385.doc -157 - 201234070 may comprise a polymeric material. In some embodiments, the barrier layer may be coated or disposed in the region of the electronic glasses between two components, such as between the lens housing and the electro-optical lens. In some embodiments, such components of the electronic glasses can be pre-faced and the barrier layer can be applied in a later procedure (eg, as a finishing or sealing process after the electrical connections have been formed). section). This may be preferred because, for example, the barrier layer may function to prevent electrical connections at the interface between the components from being exposed to the external environment. Thus, in some embodiments the 'barrier layer once set' can limit the proximity of this interface. However, embodiments are not limited thereto and may be in any suitable wall layer. One inventor has discovered that in some embodiments, it may be preferred that the barrier layer may comprise a material (which is such that it can be coated or injected into the region between the electrical components). As mentioned above, in the embodiment, the barrier layer may be coated to prevent contact such as water, and therefore, the barrier/,. The water is comparable to water. In this way, the barrier layer can be applied to the same region where the moisture is originally accessible (and thereby placed in the region), where the barrier layer can comprise a polymer material ( In the case of, for example, a oxy-resin, after the barrier layer has been applied to the electron two: the barrier layer can be cured to hold the material in place. ::: The mirror can be used in any suitable process (such as visible Curing or thermally curing the cured barrier layer. In some embodiments, the:, the spring is cured and/or the barrier layer may be selected to use a thermally cured material such that the material is at a sufficient level of I60385.doc i58 - 201234070 Curing at low temperatures' while other components of the electronic glasses (such as 'lens, lens out loud 1 and 7 or electronic devices') are not affected by temperature increases. The moon has also found that in some embodiments, 'better Ground, the material containing the barrier layer should be flexible enough / or soft so that the material does not damage (or damage other components such as lenses) when subjected to the typical forces normally used. For example, 5' when the barrier layer is placed in the region between the lens housing and the lens assembly There may be forces applied to either or both of these components in various directions. If the barrier layer is too stiff, this force may be applied to the lens which may become debris or crack. This may result in ( For example, damage to the lens by the exposure of the electrical contacts and/or one or more components may be relied upon. A barrier layer applied to the electronic glasses is included to prevent or limit electrical contact between the lens and the lens housing An exemplary embodiment of the external environment (including moisture) is shown in Figure 3. The electronic glasses include a lens housing 3001, a conductor 3〇〇2 (in this case, shown as a flexible conductive material). The conductive paint 3003 of the Q portion of one of the electrical paths to one or more of the electrical components of the lens 3004, and the barrier layer 3005. As shown in Figure 30, in some examples, the lens housing 3〇〇1 and There may be one between the lenses 3〇〇4 The space or region 'shows as an air gap 3 〇〇 6. As mentioned above, this air gap can be formed during the manufacturing process (eg, one of the lens housing 3〇〇1 and the lens 3〇〇4 is not tightly fitted) In order to seal the components therebetween to prevent exposure to the external environment) and/or may be extended by the use of spectacles. On the opposite side of the air gap 3006 of π shown in FIG. 3B is a barrier layer 3〇〇5, It has been placed to insulate the conductor 3〇〇2 from the external environment. The barrier layer 3〇〇5 is shown as being disposed in the region between the lens housing 30〇1 and the lens 3004.
