Description

Lunettes dotées d'un élément d'appui nasal amovible et/ou réglable en position. Glasses with a removable nasal support element and / or adjustable in position.
La présente invention concerne des lunettes dotées d'un élément d'appui nasal amovible et/ou réglable en position.The present invention relates to glasses with a removable nasal support element and / or adjustable in position.
Dans l'art antérieur, on a déjà réalisé des lunettes dont les verres sont assemblés sur une monture dotée de branches latérales. Le problème posé dans la présente invention se rapporte à l'appui nasal.In the prior art, glasses have already been produced, the lenses of which are assembled on a frame provided with lateral branches. The problem posed in the present invention relates to the nasal support.
L'appui nasal des lunettes est une nécessité dans le port des lunettes. Or, cet appui varie selon les morphologies. Ainsi, selon le porteur, le nez est plus ou moins loin de l'axe optique des verres, plus ou moins épais, etc. Il est clair que la fabrication de lunettes doit tenir compte de cette question.Nasal support for glasses is a necessity when wearing glasses. However, this support varies according to the morphologies. Thus, depending on the wearer, the nose is more or less far from the optical axis of the glasses, more or less thick, etc. It is clear that the manufacture of glasses must take this question into account.
Actuellement, de façon commune, l'appui nasal est assuré par deux plaquettes disposées de chaque coté du nez du porteur de lunettes, les plaquettes étant articulées sur un fil métallique gainé de plastique de protection et plié. Le fil de support est alors fixé au cercle ou à la façade de la monture. Sa mobilité est assurée par déformation pour obtenir un réglage tant en épaisseur qu'en hauteur. Ce réglage est assuré par l'opticien qui règle les lunettes sur chaque porteur.Currently, in common, the nasal support is provided by two plates arranged on each side of the nose of the spectacle wearer, the plates being articulated on a metal wire sheathed with protective plastic and folded. The support wire is then fixed to the circle or to the front of the frame. Its mobility is ensured by deformation to obtain an adjustment both in thickness and in height. This adjustment is ensured by the optician who adjusts the glasses on each wearer.
Mais, le réglage par déformation présente des inconvénients, la fixation du fil sur la monture étant souvent obtenue par soudure ou collage. Dans ce cas, une manipulation trop forte peut briser la fixation. D'autre part, le caractère élastique du support nasal fait qu'au cours du temps le réglage se déplace et les lunettes descendent lentement sur le nez du porteur, ce qui entraine une fatigue oculaire du porteur de lunettes qui doit adapter ses yeux à un axe optique décalé ou qui par un geste de la main repositionne ses lunettes de façon correcte.However, the adjustment by deformation has drawbacks, the fixing of the wire on the frame often being obtained by welding or gluing. In this case, excessive handling can break the fixation. On the other hand, the elastic nature of the nasal support means that over time the adjustment moves and the glasses descend slowly onto the wearer's nose, which causes eye wearer to wear glasses who must adapt their eyes to a optical axis offset or which by a gesture of the hand reposition its glasses correctly.
Enfin, dans la pratique des sports de plein air. comme la voile, le vélo ou le ski, on voit apparaître un besoin accru de lunettes de protection. Les normes de sécurité imposent le plus souvent, qu'aucune partie des lunettes ne puisse blesser leur porteur en cas de chute par exemple. En particulier, les supports d'appui nasal en fil déformable métallique sont parfois des causes d'accident.Finally, in the practice of outdoor sports. like sailing, biking or skiing, we are seeing an increased need for protective glasses. Safety standards generally require that no part of the glasses can injure their wearer in the event of a fall, for example. In particular, nasal support supports made of deformable metal wire are sometimes causes of accidents.
C'est un objet de la présente invention de fournir un moyen simple de régler la position de l'appui nasal relativement à la monture qui n'exige pas la déformation d'un élément support.It is an object of the present invention to provide a simple means of adjusting the position of the nasal support relative to the frame which does not require the deformation of a support element.
Dans le domaine de la protection contre le soleil, on a déjà proposé des protège- nez constitués par des sortes de chapeaux de forme conique qui viennent se monter sur le dessus du nez du porteur de lunettes de protection solaire. Mais, une telle protection amovible peut facilement s'intégrer dans le support nasal selon un second aspect de l'invention et ce, de façon optionnelle. En effet, les rayons solaires ne sont pas dangereux pour le nez toute la journée ni dans toutes les situations d'éclairement. Il est donc souhaitable de fournir un caractère amovible à cette protection nasale. Dans les sports de montagne, la protection nasale est utile par vent violent en particulier.In the field of protection against the sun, nose protectors have already been proposed consisting of sorts of conical hats which are mounted on the top of the nose of the wearer of sun protection glasses. However, such removable protection can easily be integrated into the nasal support according to a second aspect of the invention and this, optionally. Indeed, the sun's rays are not dangerous for the nose all day or in all lighting situations. It is therefore desirable to provide a removable character to this nasal protection. In mountain sports, nasal protection is useful in strong winds in particular.
Ainsi, selon la situation d'éclairement, le porteur de lunettes peut adapter ou non une protection solaire du nez sur les lunettes.Thus, depending on the lighting situation, the wearer of glasses may or may not adapt sun protection for the nose on the glasses.
De ce qui précède, on retiendra que l'invention ne se rapporte pas seulement aux dispositifs de correction de la vue, dispositifs bien connus sous le terme de "lunettes", même si c'est le terme utilisé dans la suite du texte, mais qu'elle porte aussi sur les dispositifs les plus variés de protection de la région oculaire et que l'on désigne aussi sous le terme de "masques".From the above, it should be noted that the invention does not relate only to vision correction devices, devices well known under the term "glasses", even if it is the term used in the following text, but that it also relates to the most varied devices for protecting the ocular region and which is also known by the term "masks".
Ainsi, selon les cas, les lunettes comportent un élément optique ou encore un élément de protection. Cet élément peut être, selon les cas, installé ou monté sur une monture ainsi qu'il est connu de l'art antérieur. Mais aussi un tel élément peut constituer en lui- même une monture. C'est en particulier le cas dans les applications dites "mono- verre" ou l'élément de protection comporte une seule pièce devant les deux yeux du porteur. En particulier, dans ce cas, il est important d'éviter de placer des matériaux différents dont les différences d'indices de réfraction introduisent des déviations ou des obstructions des rayons et donc des déformations du champs de vision. L'invention permet en particulier d'éviter le recours à des éléments métalliques, cause aussi d'accidents. L'invention permet notamment d'utiliser des matériaux plastiques, du bois, des composites ou autres dérivés.Thus, depending on the case, the glasses have an optical element or even a protective element. This element can be, depending on the case, installed or mounted on a mount as is known from the prior art. But also such an element can constitute in itself a frame. This is particularly the case in so-called "single-glass" applications where the protective element comprises a single piece in front of the wearer's two eyes. In particular, in this case, it is important to avoid placing different materials whose differences in refractive indices introduce deviations or obstructions of the rays and therefore deformations of the field of vision. The invention makes it possible in particular to avoid the use of metallic elements, which also causes accidents. The invention makes it possible in particular to use plastic materials, wood, composites or other derivatives.
D'une manière générale, la présente invention porte remède aux inconvénients de l'art antérieur.In general, the present invention overcomes the drawbacks of the prior art.
En effet, la présente invention concerne des lunettes comportant au moins un élément optique ou de protection disposé sur ou constituant lui- même une monture, ladite monture comportant un élément d'appui nasal. L'invention est principalement caractérisée en ceIndeed, the present invention relates to glasses comprising at least one optical or protective element disposed on or itself constituting a frame, said frame comprising a nasal support element. The invention is mainly characterized in that
• que l'élément d'appui nasal comporte une partie allongée destinée à venir s'engager dans une ouverture correspondante de la monture dans une position réglable par avance. D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de la présente invention seront mieux compris à l'aide de la description et des dessins annexés qui sont :• that the nasal support element comprises an elongated part intended to come to engage in a corresponding opening of the frame in a position adjustable in advance. Other characteristics and advantages of the present invention will be better understood with the aid of the description and the appended drawings which are:
- les Figures 1A à 1B : une vue respectivement d'une monture de lunettes, d'un élément d'appui nasal et d'une protection de nez selon l'invention ;- Figures 1A to 1B: a view respectively of a spectacle frame, a nasal support element and a nose protection according to the invention;
- la Figure 2 : une vue d'une monture avec un élément d'appui nasal dans une première position ;- Figure 2: a view of a frame with a nasal support element in a first position;
- la Figure 3 : une vue d'une monture avec un élément d'appui nasal dans une seconde position. A la Figure 1A, on a représenté des lunettes de protection comportant une monture 1 qui porte principalement deux éléments optiques 2 et 3, de formes bombées, dénommés ci- après verres, mais qui sont ici réalisés en une matière plastique convenable, et qui servent de protection des yeux contre le vent et les intempéries. En particulier, il est possible que ces éléments dénommés "verres" ici, soient en fait de simples éléments de protection pour constituer un masque.- Figure 3: a view of a frame with a nasal support element in a second position. In FIG. 1A, protective glasses are shown comprising a frame 1 which mainly carries two optical elements 2 and 3, of shapes curved, hereinafter referred to as glasses, but which are here made of a suitable plastic material, and which serve to protect the eyes against wind and bad weather. In particular, it is possible that these elements called "glasses" here, are in fact simple protective elements to constitute a mask.
La monture 1 se prolonge entre les deux verres 2 et 3 par une partie de raccordement qui porte un organe de support 6 dans lequel est pratiquée une ouverture allongée 5. Cette ouverture est ici une rainure dans laquelle sont disposés des moyens de retenue 6 de l'élément d'appui nasal selon l'invention.The frame 1 is extended between the two glasses 2 and 3 by a connection part which carries a support member 6 in which an elongated opening is made 5. This opening is here a groove in which are held retaining means 6 of the nasal support element according to the invention.
L'élément d'appui nasal 9 représenté sur la Figure 1B aligné sur la monture 1 de la Figure 1A, est composé principalement d'une poutre 10 dont une extrémité est destinée à venir s'engager dans l'ouverture 5 sur la monture 1, et dont l'autre extrémité porte des ailettes* lia et 11b réalisées en une seule pièce en matériau souple. Ces ailettes sont destinées à venir appuyer sur le nez du porteur ainsi qu'il est connu.The nasal support element 9 shown in Figure 1B aligned with the frame 1 of Figure 1A, is mainly composed of a beam 10, one end of which is intended to engage the opening 5 on the frame 1 , and the other end of which carries fins * 11a and 11b made in a single piece of flexible material. These fins are intended to press on the nose of the wearer as is known.
Dans un mode de réalisation préférée, les ailettes dentures sont réalisées en un matériau silicone hypo- allergique ou en d'autres matériaux souples.In a preferred embodiment, the teeth fins are made of a hypoallergenic silicone material or of other flexible materials.
La poutre 10 est de forme allongée et d'une longueur suffisante pour s'adapter à toute une gamme de positions de réglage en fonction des publics de porteurs auxquels le fabricant de lunettes s'adresse. En réglant la position de l'appui nasal selon l'invention, du fait de la forme des ailettes, on peut ainsi régler en même temps la hauteur de l'appui nasal ainsi que la largeur entre les ailettes lia et 11b. Ce réglage en largeur peut être complété aussi par une déformation du matériau souple qui constitue les ailettes lia et 11b.The beam 10 is of elongated shape and of sufficient length to adapt to a whole range of adjustment positions as a function of the audiences of wearers to whom the manufacturer of glasses is addressed. By adjusting the position of the nasal support according to the invention, due to the shape of the fins, it is thus possible to adjust at the same time the height of the nasal support as well as the width between the fins 11a and 11b. This width adjustment can also be supplemented by a deformation of the flexible material which constitutes the fins 11a and 11b.
Dans un mode de réalisation préférée, la poutre est de section en forme de "H" dont les ailes intérieures, une fois l'élément d'appui nasal en place dans la montureIn a preferred embodiment, the beam is of "H" shaped section, the inner wings of which, once the nasal support element is in place in the frame
1, sont crénelées par des dents, comme la dent 12, séparées par des trous, comme le trou 13.1, are crenellated by teeth, like tooth 12, separated through holes, like hole 13.
Quand l'élément d'appui nasal 9 est engagé dans l'ouverture 5, par la première extrémité de la poutre 10, les dents ou crans comme la dent 12 passent à force devant les moyens de retenue, ici constitués par des cliquets, comme le cliquet 8, installés dans l'ouverture 5. Ces cliquets et / ou les dents se déforment lors de l'extraction ou de l'insertion de l'élément d'appui nasal 9 de façon à assurer une retenue suffisante de l'élément d'appui nasal 9 tout en permettant le réglage de sa position et en assurant son caractère amovible.When the nasal support element 9 is engaged in the opening 5, by the first end of the beam 10, the teeth or notches like the tooth 12 pass by force in front of the retaining means, here constituted by pawls, as the pawl 8, installed in the opening 5. These pawls and / or the teeth are deformed during the extraction or insertion of the nasal support element 9 so as to ensure sufficient retention of the element nasal support 9 while allowing the adjustment of its position and ensuring its removable nature.
A cet effet, les lunettes de l'invention sont fournies avec plusieurs accessoires d'appui nasal dont l'élément d'appui nasal représenté à la Figure 1A. Parmi ceux ci se trouve un protège nez 23 représenté à la Figure 1C, sur l'axe d'introduction de l'élément nasal dans l'ouverture 5 de la monture 1 de la Figure 1A.To this end, the glasses of the invention are supplied with several nasal support accessories, including the nasal support element shown in FIG. 1A. Among these is a nose guard 23 shown in Figure 1C, on the axis of introduction of the nasal element into the opening 5 of the frame 1 of Figure 1A.
Un tel protège nez sert aussi d'élément d'appui nasal selon l'invention. Il comporte aussi une poutre 15 de section en forme de "H" dont une première extrémité est destinée à s'engager dans l'ouverture 5 de la monture et dont une seconde extrémité porte, par collage ou soudage, un chapeau 19 en un matériau souple et hypo- allergique. Le chapeau comporte deux ailettes 20 et 24 et une nervure 22. Le dessus du chapeau 19 est doté d'une ouverture 21 d'aération 18.Such a nose guard also serves as a nasal support element according to the invention. It also includes a beam 15 of section in the shape of an "H", a first end of which is intended to engage in the opening 5 of the frame and a second end of which carries, by gluing or welding, a cap 19 made of a material flexible and hypo-allergic. The cap has two fins 20 and 24 and a rib 22. The top of the cap 19 is provided with an opening 21 for ventilation 18.
La poutre 15 est, dans le mode de réalisation représenté à la Figure 1C, dotée de moyens de retenue 17 disposés de façon à venir appuyer directement sur les parois intérieures de l'ouverture 5 de la monture 1.The beam 15 is, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1C, provided with retaining means 17 arranged so as to come to bear directly on the interior walls of the opening 5 of the frame 1.
Ces moyens de retenue sont constitués par au moins un élément élastique qui se déforme à partir d'une certaine force appliquée sur l'élément d'appui nasal lors de son insertion / extraction et qui appuie en permanence sur l'ouverture pour maintenir la position de l'élément d'appui nasal lors de son utilisation.These retaining means consist of at least one elastic element which deforms from a certain force applied to the nasal support element during its insertion / extraction and which permanently presses on the opening to maintain the position. of the nasal support element during its use.
Aux Figures 2 et 3, on a représenté respectivement l'appui nez de la Figure 1B dans sa position la plus haute et dans une position basse.Figures 2 and 3 show respectively the nose support of Figure 1B in its highest position and in a low position.
Les mêmes éléments des Figures précédentes n'ont pas été indiqués pour ne pas charger l'explication. La monture 1 reçoit par la base de l'ouverture 5 la première extrémité de la poutre 10 de l'appui nez.The same elements of the preceding Figures have not been indicated in order not to load the explanation. The frame 1 receives through the base of the opening 5 the first end of the beam 10 of the nose support.
L'insertion se fait à la Figure 2 selon la flèche montanteThe insertion is done in Figure 2 according to the rising arrow
26. Du fait que l'utilisateur introduit l'élément d'appui nasal à force, les moyens de retenue ou cliquets s'escamotent ou se déforment de façon à permettre le glissement de la poutre dans l'ouverture ou rainure 5. Le déplacement peut aller jusqu'en butée en haut de l'ouverture 5, position de réglage la plus haute représentée à la figure 2. Ainsi, un réglage de douze à quinze millimètres peut être admis.26. Because the user forcibly introduces the nasal support element, the retaining means or pawls retract or deform so as to allow the beam to slide in the opening or groove 5. The displacement can go as far as the stop at the top of the opening 5, the highest adjustment position shown in FIG. 2. Thus, an adjustment of twelve to fifteen millimeters can be allowed.
A la Figure 3, on a représenté le début de l'opération d'extraction, ou le réglage de la position de l'élément d'appui nasal dans une position plus basse selon la flèche 27. On assure ainsi, aussi bien une possibilité de réglage en position qu'une possibilité d'amovibilité pour divers éléments d'appui nasal amovibles.In Figure 3, there is shown the beginning of the extraction operation, or the adjustment of the position of the nasal support element in a lower position according to arrow 27. This thus ensures, as well a possibility adjustment in position that a possibility of removability for various removable nasal support elements.
L'invention ne se limite aux modes de réalisation décrits mais s'étend à l'ensemble des moyens indiqués dans les revendications annexées. En particulier, le déplacement dans l'ouverture a été décrit comme étant rectiligne. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation, l'ouverture peut avoir une forme courbe de façon à assurer aussi une réglage de l'orientation de l'élément d'appui nasal.The invention is not limited to the embodiments described but extends to all of the means indicated in the appended claims. In particular, the displacement in the opening has been described as being rectilinear. In other embodiments, the opening may have a curved shape so as to also adjust the orientation of the nasal support element.
De même, l'ouverture 5 peut prendre diverses formes adaptées à l'élément d'appui nasal à insérer. Cette ouverture peut être pratiquée directement dans l'épaisseur de la monture, par exemple dans le cas de lunettes réalisées par moulage en une seul ensemble.Similarly, the opening 5 can take various forms adapted to the nasal support element to be inserted. This opening can be made directly in the thickness of the frame, for example in the case of glasses produced by molding in a single assembly.
L'ouverture peut aussi être pratiquée dans un élément rapporté par collage ou soudage d'un coté ou de l'autre de la monture par rapport au porteur de lunettes. The opening can also be made in an element added by gluing or welding on one side or the other of the frame relative to the wearer of glasses.
