EYEGLASSES.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent N 0. 623,212, dated April 18, 1899. Application filed December 24,1897. Serial No. 663,283. (No model.)
To rtZZ whom it puny concern:
Be it known that I, LOUIS B. HILBORN, a citizen of the United States, residing atNewark, in the county of Essex and State of New Jersey, have invented certain newand useful Improvements in Eyeglasses; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full,clear,
' and exact description of the invention, such adapted to be worn with greater comfort and case.
The principal object of this invention is to provide in connection with the mounting a novel construction of guard constructed to provide, when in position upon the nose, a greater bearing-surface to more readily retain the eyeglasses in their position upon the nose, and also,owing to this construction and arrangement of the parts comprising the guard, resulting in greater comfort and ease to the wearer and less liability of abrading the skin and producing soreness.
The invention therefore consists in the general construction of mounting for eyeglasses hereinafter set forth, as well as in the novel arrangements and combinations of the several parts and the details of the construction thereof, all of which will be fully described in the accompanying specification and finally embodied in the clauses of the claim.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of a pair of eyeglasses and a mounting therefor embodying the principles of my present invention.
' Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken on line :0 in
Fig. 1, illustrating, on an enlarged scale, one arrangement and construction of my novel form of guard. Fig. 3 is a vertical section taken on line 1 in Fig. 2, and Fig. 4 is ahorizontal section taken on line z in said Fig. 2. Figs. 5 and 6 are perspective views of the parts comprisingmynovel form of nose-guard illustrated in connection with the hereinabove-described figures of the drawings. Fig. 7 is a perspective view of a nose-guard of a slightly-modified form of construction, but still embodying the novel features of this invention.
Similar letters of reference are employed in all of the above-described views to indicate corresponding parts.
In said drawings, A indicates the complete mounting, which comprises the usual form of spring I), connected at its free ends by means of the studs 0 and the straps 0, each of which has secured thereto in the usual manner the glasses or lenses to, as will be clearly evident from an inspection of Figs. 1, 3, and 4. Each stud 0 comprises a box portion 0 having the guides or flanges 0 between which I have secured, by means of a stud-screw c, the lower end of the spring I) and the perforated end of a guard-blade d and also the perforated end of a suitably-constructed strap or bridgepiece d which is connected with a second guard-plate d. most practical shapes of these blades d and d are clearly illustrated in Figs. 5 and 6, and when arranged between the guides or flanges c of the box portion 0 with the end 01 of the blade d resting beneath the end 01 of the strap or bridge-piece d and the respective perforations d and d in the blade d and the strap or bridge-piece (Z respectively, these parts can be securely fastened in place by the stud-screw c and form at the ends of the spring I) of the mounting a pair of noseguards D, each comprising a pair of approximately parallel guard-blades d and d, connected at the top by a suitably curved or bent strap or bridge-piece 61 from which said blades extend in a'downward direction. As illustrated in Fig. 7, the said blades d and (Z and the strap or bridge-piece (I may all be formed in one integral piece to form the guard D. 7
As will be seen more especially fromFigs. 1, 2, and 7, the blade (I of each guard, which is arranged in line with the lower end of the spring 1), extends lower down or is preferably The constructions and the made longer than the blade d; but this is not absolutely essential, since it will be evident that both blades (Z and d may be made to extend the same depth from the ends of the spring, and said blades (1 and (1 need not be parallel, but may be arranged at an angle to each other, as will be clearly understood.
The strap or bridge-piece d is made of pliable metal, so that it can be suitably bent, as indicated in Figs. 1, 2, 6, and 7, to follow the contour of the cartilage of the nose, and thus bring the blade d in a better position to grip and morev readily fit the bony portions of the nose. Of course it will be evident that said blades 01 and d may be provided with the usual cushions e and 6'', made of cork, celluloid, or other suitable material.
The many advantages derived from my present construction of guard will be evident from the above description, but the main point is the greater bearing-surface obtained by the arrangement of the blades cl and d, whereby the guard is adapted for use in connection with any form of nose and securely retains the eyeglasses in place, the blades'cl serving to hold the mounting in position upon the nose, while the blades cl act to steady the parts and prevent the accidental displacement of the guard from its proper position upon the nose.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim is- 1. In a mounting foreyeglasses, the combination,with the spring, and the stud and strap, of a nose-guard, comprising a pair of guardblades, a pliable strap orrbridge-piece at the top of said blades with which said blades are forated end of said blade cl and'through the perforated end of said strap or bridge-piece,
to secure said parts in position in said studbox, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
3. A nose-guard for eyeglasses, comprising a pair of guard-blades and a connecting pliable strap or bridge-piece, at the top of said blades and from which said blades extend, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
4. A nose-guard for eyeglasses, comprising a pair of guard-blades and a pliable strap or bridge-piece connected with the top of said blades, substantially as and for the purposes set forth.
5. A nose-guard for eyeglasses, comprising a pair'of guard-blades and a connecting pliable strap or bridge-piece, at the top of said blades and from which said blades extend, said blades being approximately parallel, and
one of said blades being longer than the LOUIS B. I-IILBORN.
