New Description: The cross-reference/in the case of the relevant application. 2 The US is invited to apply for the priority of the application in the 23rd of the year, and the content of the application is completely incorporated in the content. . [Technical field to which the new technology belongs] This creation relates to a 'water hood' for commercial diving, recreational diving or snorkeling, and more particularly to an optical system and its configuration, by means of such an optical system, It expands the visibility of divers in the water. • [Prior Art] In the past, various attempts have been made to increase the diver's view in the water or to achieve full visibility. The limitation of the planar mask to the field of view is known, which deforms the image of the object so that it appears larger and closer to the real object. For example, a mask with a horizontal field of view of 100 degrees in air can only reach 70.1 degrees in water. In addition, the magnification of the image is also non-linear. The more the image is returned from the vertical boresight of the mask, the higher the magnification is magnified. In the fresh water _ middle, the image that deviates from the main axis by 10 degrees will show a magnification of 1.335 times. Similarly, an image that is 50 degrees off the spindle will show a 1.426x magnification. - A number of patents have been disclosed in various patents, including U.S. Patent No. 5,625,425 (Kranhouse) and U.S. Patent No. 5,764,332 (Kranhouse). (Here, the contents of these two patents are incorporated by reference). Although Kranhouse's patented design achieves a greater field of view, many of these embodiments do not achieve clear vision on the water. Designs for divergent divers, such as the design of a double dome, or the design of a convex mirror behind the front arc 76375-960330.doc M322373 will make the visual change on the face, and make the refraction The diver's apparent distance is less than 5 suctions. On the other hand, the thin parallel convex design for myopic divers can only provide clear vision for normal vision on the water surface. U.S. Patent No. 5,764,332 provides a water-filled auxiliary lens for adjusting the focal length when used on a water surface. However, 丨f and mechanical limitations make this approach unacceptable for certain applications.

This optical configuration uses a single lens on each eye to provide an optical magnification similar to the immersion of a double dome dive into water and to maintain air within the mirror dome of the diver's face. Thus, the present invention provides an optical component that is inexpensive, detachable, and enhances visual clarity on the water surface, and includes two single lenses that typically have negative optical power. #奂言说, when immersed in water, the mirror dome provides a negative weight, while the water element is used to compensate for the loss of the negative diopter. [Embodiment] Some embodiments of the diving cover of U.S. Patent Nos. 5,625,425 and 5,764,332 do not provide a clear image on the surface of the water. For example, a normalized person uses a high-magnification convex mirror in water to obtain a clear image, but out of the water surface. This convex mirror is only suitable for hyperopia. The compensating lens disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,764,332 has certain disadvantages in terms of structure and cost. This work 76375-960330.doc M322373 Place the book with a negative diopter lens on the diving cover instead of capturing the sea water or other refraction fluid on the front side of these diving masks. The surface lens unit is located on and integral to a support frame and can be easily removed from the submersible or reattached to the diving cover. The user wearing the diving cover can perform the removal and installation operations, either under the water or on the surface of the water. Alternatively, the user can change between an operating position and a removal position (e.g., flipping up) to secure the support frame to the front side of the diving cover or to remove from the front side of the diving, cover. When under the water surface, the refractive index of the surface lens is greatly reduced because the refractive index of the surface lens is approximately the refractive index of water. Therefore, there is almost no visual distortion, but the support frame hinders the viewing angle. Therefore, it is preferable to remove the surface lens when moving under the surface of the water. Figure 1-3 shows the creation of the dual dome dive cover 100, which is an improvement of the diving cover of the 5,625,425 patent. The diving cover 1 has a single two-parallel double dome mirror (10) and a cymbal 8, which are attached to the frame _ φ face seal assembly 120. The receiving locations 130 and 134 are located on the upper edge of the double dome dive cover 100. The bottom edge of the front side of the diving cover has a receiving groove. A pair of cylindrical or conical clean valve housing projections 15 , 160 are mounted to the bottom of each mirror surface of the diving cover, the pair of projections 150, 160 covering the integrally formed spokes and a slamming valve is supported On the spokes. The clean valve body is designed to discharge water and air bubbles horizontally backwards. Figure 4 shows the optical path diagram of the double dome mirrors 1〇4 and 1〇8 of the double dome diving cover. The radius R1 and R2 of each dome share the same center point, and this point is also the center of rotation of the user's eye. 76375-960330.doc M322373 FIG. 5 shows the case where the double negative refractive lenses 200 and 210 are disposed on the front side of the double dome mirrors 104 and 108. These hard lenses 200, 210 can be made of any of the refractive lens materials used in ophthalmic lenses, such as glass, polycarbonate, acrylate or CR-39 resin. Figure 6 shows a support frame 250 for supporting surface optical lenses 200,210. The hooks 260, 270 engage into the receiving locations 130 and 134. Hook 280 (Fig. 6) is movable and engages into receiving groove 290 (Fig. 3). The force applied by the fingertip and the tab 300 is removed from the face, the hook portion 280 can be bent downwardly into an arc, and the hook portion 280 can be engaged or removed from the groove 290. The front side fingers 310, 320 (Fig. 7) allow the user to pull the hook 280 away from the groove 290 without pulling the diving cover 100 away from the face without damaging the seal. In other words, the flange portion provides a lever effect so that the user's index finger can be placed on the front side of the outer frame and form a fixed point, and when the thumb is pressed against the tab 300, the hook portion can be deformed downward. Referring to Fig. 6, the projection of the edge of the optical lens can be inserted into the tab groove 330 by a small rotational insertion force, and the lens is fixed to the outer frame. Figures 7 and 8 show the case where the surface lens support frame is completely fixed to the front side of the mask 1 of Figure 1. Figure 9 shows the surface lens support frame attached to the front side of the diving cap 10' and is about to be positioned down to the position of Figures 7 and 8 or is about to be removed from the mask. The hooks 260 and 270 engage into the receiving locations 130 and 134. The outer frame has drop tabs 330, 334 and a figure-eight rubber band can be wrapped around the tabs and the individual face seal projections to further secure the outer frame to the mask. This type of fixing is attributed to the design of the tabs and hooks. This type of fixation will be required when the user is surfing. 76375-960330.doc .M322373 A variety of different methods can be used to remove the surface lens support frame from the water receiving side of the mask or attach it to the water receiving side of the mask, such as bite, magnetic force, button, suction cup or other A method known to those skilled in the art. When the outer frame is removed from the mask, the mask is attached to the user's body with a strap, rope or chain so that the outer frame is not lost when the outer frame is separated from the mask. As shown in Fig. 10, when the outer frame is removed from the mask, the outer cover can be held by the holster 340. The rope passing through the holster hole 36〇 can be wrapped around the left upper arm of the user who does not obstruct the orientation of the general pipe or bundled on the floating device located on the front torso of the user, and the rope can be tied outside. An opening 364 of the frame. Alternatively, the outer side frame 25 〇 and the holster 34 连接 can be joined by a general side squeezing hook 3 7 〇, as shown in Fig. ( (mounted on the side of the outer frame). The hook is inserted into the unit 376 at the upper end of Fig. 1 and attached to a spring retractor 384 by a cord 38. The bouncer 384 has a back plane 390 which slides into a chute 4〇〇 on the back side of the holster 340 and is snap-fitted by the bottom press φ 41〇. Other mechanisms known to those skilled in the art can also be used to attach the retractor to the holster. The holster 34 can also include a side chute 420 for mounting other accessories, such as a flashlight (not shown). • As mentioned above, the user can remove the frame from the mask. However, Figure 12 shows another embodiment in which the outer frame is fixed to the mask and can be switched between an operational position on the front side of the double dome mask (similar to Figure 7) and the exit position (similar to Figure 9, but Lift to an almost vertical position). The outer casing can be held in the disengaged position by means of a friction fit, such as by rotating on a friction sleeve (Fig. 12). Alternatively, the 76375-960330.doc M322373 frame can be held in an exit position by other means such as bundling or biting. This type of attachment of the outer frame to the mask is quite useful for a diving instructor who often needs to sneak into the water and emerge as a surface, or a diver who does not want to frequently detach the frame with a mirror. Further, the embodiment of Fig. 12 is used to flip the frame with the attached mirror down to the use position and turn it up to the exit position when not in use. The above description is a preferred embodiment of the creation, but the creation is not limited to these specific examples. For example, a variety of rigid optical materials can be used to make lens elements having different divergence or refractive indices. In addition, different materials and methods can be used to make the support frame and attach or detach the outer frame to or from the mask in a different manner. Various modifications can be made to the design and configuration of the fixtures supporting the frame without departing from the scope of the creation as defined in the scope of the patent application.
