Publication number: 20230305320Abstract: Eyewear including an optical functional member, control electronics, and a sealed electrical connective element connecting the electronics to the optical functional member. The connective element can directly connect the electronics to the optical functional member, or can connect through an intermediate contact, e.g., a plug-and-receptacle. The connective element can be routed from the electronics, around a rimlock of the eyewear to the optical functional member. The connective element can be a conductive compressible member, such as conductive rubber. In some embodiments, the connective element can be a multiconductor cable.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 16, 2023Publication date: September 28, 2023Applicant: e-Vision, LLCInventors: Ronald D. Blum, William Kokonaski, Claudio Dalla Longa, Mark Graham, Joshua Haddock, Charles Willey, Tiziano Tabacchi, Martin Boch, Massimo Pinazza, Scott N. Richman, Volkan Ozguz

Patent number: 9028062Abstract: The present invention generally relates to integrating electronic components into an electro-active frame for driving electro-active focusing lenses. This is accomplished in a cosmetically pleasing manner that allows a platform of frame systems to be built from a single electronic module. Specifically, the present invention discloses controlling an electro-active lens in a deliberate, hands free manner that gives the user control of the electro-active lens.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2013Date of Patent: May 12, 2015Assignee: Mitsui Chemicals, Inc.Inventors: William Kokonaski, Ronald D. Blum, Tiziano Tabacchi, Martin Boch, Massimo Pinazza, Scott Richman, Volkan Ozguz, Joshua Haddock

Patent number: 8881790Abstract: A shading system for a glass-covered vehicle opening includes a pull rod guided between a pair of guide rails. A shading element is attached to the pull rod and is movable between a retracted position and an extended position. Teeth are formed in the guide rails. Gear wheels at opposite ends of the pull rod mesh with the teeth in the guide rails. The pull rod has a gear drive which rotatably couples the gear wheels together.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2011Date of Patent: November 11, 2014Assignees: Deere & Company, AKO Kunststoffe Alfred Kolb GmbHInventors: Martin Boch, Harald Mueller, Alexander Wagner
