Description
J. F. SNYDER, SSSSSSSSSSSSSSS LD. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA 1.
"HWIIIIIILM,
JOHN F. SNYDER, OF OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA.
SANITARY EYE-SHIELD.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June 11, 1912.
Application filed April 27, 1911. Serial No. 623,555.
To all whom tt may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN F. SNYDER, citizen ofthe United States, residing at Oakland, in the county of Alameda and State of California, have invented new and useful Improvements in Sanitary Eye-Shields, of which the following is a specification.
rlhis invent-ion relates to a sanitary eyeshield particularly adaptable for use in barber shops, but also capable of general use.
The object of the present invention is to provide a simple, inexpensive device for the protect-ion of the eyes of persons when subjected to tonsorial attentions, to prevent the trimmings of ones hair, beard or mustache from flying into the eyes while in a reclining position; and particularly to provide a sanitary eye shield with means whereby the shield proper may be removed after use so as to avoid the application of the same shieldv to other persons.
The invention consists of the parts and the construction and combination of parts as hereinafter more fully described and claimed, having reference to the accompanying drawings, in which- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the shield and its carrier. Fig. 2 is a plan view of one of the medicated shields or blanks.
In the present embodiment of my invention 2 represents an eye shield blank made from a piece of paper or other suitable, inexpensive, fiexible material which is preferably medicated. The shield blank 2 is of suitable design and is preferably cut, as shown, to provide two wing portions 3 which fit over the eyes, but having two central depending lobes 4 cut and designed to permit the lobes to open upwardly upon and rest against the bridge of the nose when in position. The upper central portion of the blank is provided with a securing tab 5 to engage with a suitable holder, as hereinafter described. These shield blanks 2 may be manufactured in large quantities at very small expense and can be supplied to barber shops and other places of business likely to have use for them, and may be printed with advertising matter on one of their surfaces.
The shield is best applied by using a specially designed holder, preferably provided with spring nose clamps 6 like those used on ordinary eye glasses, and having a frame 7 preferably made of wire and bent to form portions 8 which fit the contour of the forehead and extend around the eyes. The central portion 9 of the frame 7 has two vertical connecting wires 10 which carry a sliding cross-bar 11 which is movable, clamp fashion, toward and from the top horizontal portion 9 of frame 7 In operation one of the paper shield blanks 2 is taken in one hand and the tongue 5 :folded back crosswise of the body of the blank and laid over the central portion 9 of the holder 7 and between this portion 9 and the sliding bar 11. The latter is then pushed toward the part 9 to clamp the tongue 5 firmly in position with t-he Wings 3 of the blank overlying the frame wings 8. The movement of the locking bar 11 is facilitated by bending upwardly at a suitable angle, a flange 12 which serves as a handle. Having thus secured the medicated shield blank 2 upon the inner side of the frame 7 and clamping it by the bar 11, the operator then places the shield in position over the eyes of a person to be operated upon with the paper next to the face and the wire frame wings 8 pressing the paper on the face; the frame remaining in position by means of the nose clamp 6 the pads, 14, of which press against the paper lobes, 4, lying between the same and the nose.
This invention affords a simple and inexpensive device for protecting the eyes of persons against flying pieces of beard or hair. By providing a detachable medicated shield 2 all danger of transmitting infectious diseases 'is overcome, since each shield can be quickly detached from the frame 7 and a new one inserted in place for each customer.
Having thus described my invention, what I-claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. An eye shield consisting of a frame embodying a nose clamp, and a removable shield carried by the frame having separated portions bendable across the inner faces of the nose clamp so as to lie between the members of the clamp and the nose of the wearer.
2. An eye shield, consisting of a frame embodying a nose clamp and a removable shield carried by the frame having separated portions normally overlying the members of the nose clamp, said shield having a portion bendable at right angles to said separated portions and engaged with a portion of the frame.
3. An eye shield consisting of a frame embodying a pair of clamps and a readily removable shield having the portions normally overlying the clamps said -portions being bendab-le at right angles across the inner faces of said clamps, so as to lie between the clamps and the nose of the wearer.
4. An eye shield comprising aflexible blank fashioned with lobes arranged upon each side of a central opening, said lobes being bendable and adapted to press upon the sides of the nose when applied, and means for temporarily maintaining the shield in position on the face of the wearer, said means embodying a nose clamp across the witnesses.
