LENS-CLIP FOR RIMLESS EYEGLASSES.
Specification of Letters Patent. Application filed May 25, 191.0. Serial No.
Patented June 27, 1911. 563,379.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, STANLEY S'rorr, a citizen of the United States, residing at Cohoes, in the county of Albany and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Lens-Clips for Rimless Eyeglasses, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to clips for the lenses of rimless eyeglasses and the object of the invention is to provide a simple and inexpensive clip and attaching bolt which will absolutely prevent the glass from turning in the clip.
Further objects of the invention will appear as the following specific description is read in connection with the accompanying drawing which forms a part of this specification, and in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of a clip. Fig. 2 is an elevation of the lens used with said clip. Fig. 3 is a perspective View of the bolt and nut used with said clip. Fig. 4 is a view similar to Fig. 1 of a modification. Fig. 5 is a view similar to Fig. 2 of a modified lens, and Fig. 6 is a perspective view of a bolt used in the modified form.
Referring more particularly to the drawing 1 and 2 represent the arms of the clip which have connected at their inner ends the leaves 3 and 4 extending in opposite directions on the line of an arc to conform with the outline of the lens 5. In the end of each arm 1 and 2 is formed a triangular opening 6 which registers with the opening in the opposite arm, and the triangle is so arranged that one side is in direct right angles to the line of the arms and adjacent the end thereof and with the point of the triangle arranged inward. A similar opening 7 is made in the lens and the bolt 8 is triangular in form so as to closely fit apertures in the arms and in the lens. This type of connection brings the broadest part of the opening in the lens away from its edge. The lens is not weakened by this type of aperture and it is absolutely prevented from turning in the arms.
In the modification shown in Figs. 4, 5 and 6, the aperture in the arms is made square to correspond with a similar aperture in the lens and the bolt is square throughout the major portion of its length so as to conform to the aperture in the arms and in the lens. This type of connection also prevents the lens from turning and does not weaken the lens any more than in the ordinary connection which is at present used.
Having thus described the invention, what is claimed is 1. Means for securing a lens to a lens mount which comprises a pair of rigid parallel arms having polygonal apertures there in, a lens having a polygonal aperture therein to register with the apertures in the arms, and a polygonal bolt passing through the apertures in the arms and lens and closely fitting the same.
2. Means for securing a lens to a lens mount which comprises a pair of parallel arms having triangular apertures therein, a lens having a triangular aperture adapted to register with the apertures in the arms and a triangular bolt passing through the apertures in the arms and lens and closely fitting the same.
3. In combination with a lens having a triangular aperture therein, the point of said aperture arranged adjacent the nearest edge of the lens, a pair of attached arms having apertures to correspond with the aperture in the lens, and a triangular bolt passing through and closely fitting the apertures in the arms and the lens and connecting the former together.
In testimony whereof I afliX my signature in presence of two witnesses.
STANLEY STOTT.
