Definitions

  • the present invention provides a device or means for securing a pair of eyeglasses.
  • the device or means for securing a pair of eyeglasses may be permanently affixed to the eyeglasses for securing eyeglasses or may be removably affixed to the eyeglasses.
  • eyeglasses may wish to remove and replace them multiple times during the course of a day. After removing eyeglasses from the face, many eyeglass wearers often place the eyeglasses in a shirt or coat pocket or hang the eyeglasses from an opening of a shirt, sweater, jacket or blouse by inserting a temple piece inside the shirt, sweater, jacket or blouse. However, the eyeglasses may fall from such a position upon bending over. This is dangerous for both damaging and losing the eyeglasses.
  • U.S. Patent No. 5,893,198 teaches a necklace assembly for holding a pair of eyeglasses that features an elongated flexible necklace for wearing about the neck and an eyeglass-holder assembly connected between the first and second ends of the necklace.
  • the eyeglass-holder assembly includes an eyeglass-holder loop having a receiver loop opening adapted to receive a temple piece of a pair of eyeglasses.
  • the assembly further features a first and second swivel linker connected to the necklace and to the holder-loop so that the necklace and the holder loop are rotatably joined.
  • the assembly features a necklace/holder- assembly coupler connecting the first end of the necklace with the swivel linker and a second necklace/holder-assembly coupler connecting the second end of the necklace with the swivel linker.
  • the assembly may be worn about the neck with a pair of eyeglasses in a folded-closed configuration held in the eyeglass-holder loop of the eyeglass-holder assembly with a temple piece extending downwardly from one side of the temple-piece-receiver loop opening and a lens frame of the eyeglasses extending downwardly from an opposite side of the loop opening and with twisting induced in the necklace by movement of the wearer tending to be relieved by rotation of the swivel linkers.
  • the receiver loop is a circle and it is free to rotate with respect to the necklace.
  • U.S. Patent 8,739,570 teaches a necklace assembly for holding a pair of eyeglasses featuring a necklace for wearing about the neck having a first end and a second end and a device or holder for holding a temple piece of eyeglasses having a flexible tube in a substantially cylindrical form formed of stitched seed beads and two substantially fixed linkers, a first linker linking the device or holder for holding a temple piece of eyeglasses to the first end of the necklace and a second linker linking the eyeglass holder device to the second end of the necklace.
  • the two substantially fixed linkers do not permit substantial rotation about an axis of the flexible tube with respect to the necklace.
  • U.S. Patent 9, 188,797 teaches an eyeglass system including primary glasses and detachably engageable auxiliary glasses.
  • the auxiliary glasses include a first and second auxiliary lens connected together by a bridge.
  • An aperture is defined in each of the lenses and this aperture extends between the interior and exterior surfaces, and originates in the peripheral edge and extends for a distance into the lens.
  • a connector is provided in the aperture in each of the lenses, and this connector detachably engages the primary glasses.
  • the aperture may be keyhole-shaped and the connector may include a boss that is a complementary keyhole shape.
  • the connector may be provided with a magnet that is attracted to a magnet embedded in a lens of the primary glasses.

  • the device or means for securing a pair of eyeglasses may be permanently fixed to or embedded within the temples of the eyeglasses.
  • device or means for securing a pair of eyeglasses provides a magnet of appropriate size fixed to or embedded within the first temple piece of the eyeglasses, one or two or more on the first temple at any desired position such as, for instance a quarter, a third, half, two thirds or three fourths of the distance from the lenses to the end of the temple.
  • a second and opposing magnet of appropriate and complementary size and charge is fixed to or embedded within the second temple piece of the eyeglasses, one or two or more on the second temple at any desired position such as, for instance a quarter, a third, half, two thirds or three fourths of the distance from the lenses to the end of the temple.
  • the one or more magnets on the first and the second temple of the eyeglasses are positioned so as to engage and secure the temples together when the eyeglasses are in a collapsed and folded position, removed from the face.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif ou un moyen de fixation d'une paire de lunettes comprenant au moins un aimant et un boîtier formé d'un matériau extensible. L'invention concerne en outre un ensemble lunettes permettant de fixer une paire de lunettes, comprenant une paire de lunettes et au moins un aimant fixé à une branche des lunettes ou pouvant être retiré de ladite branche. L'ensemble lunettes peut en outre comprendre un boîtier formé d'un matériau extensible et être retiré de la monture de lunettes et former un manchon ou un tube substantiel de façon à coopérer avec chaque branche de la paire de lunettes et se fixer à cette dernière et à fixer l'aimant à la branche des lunettes. Les aimants peuvent être positionnés de façon à venir en contact avec les deux branches et fixer ces dernières ensemble lorsque la monture des lunettes est dans une position repliée et pliée, retirée du visage de l'utilisateur.
