Abstract: A hinge is disclosed between the side piece (2) and the endpiece (1) of the frame of a pair of glasses. The side piece and the endpiece are parts (1, 2) made of wire, of which one bears a hinge body (6) which serves as a hinge axis with a coaxial, peripheral groove (7) for receiving a bearing eye which consists of the bent end (3) of the wire of which the other part (1) is made. The bearing eye forms a peripherally open eyelet (8) which can elastically engage the peripheral groove (7). In order to achieve advantageous manufacturing conditions, the wire of which the part (2) that bears the hinge body (6) is made has a bent, hairpin-shaped end piece (3) which form-fittingly holds between its branches (4, 5) the hinge body (6) on both sides of the peripheral groove (7). The crosspiece (10) located between the two branches (4, 5) of the end piece (3) covers the outer side of the eyelet (8), which forms the bearing eye of the other part (1).

Abstract: A fastener device for two frameless spectacle lenses (2) comprises a nose support provided between the spectacle lenses (2) and supporting parts (4) provided in the region of the nose support onto which the spectacle lenses (2) are glued. In order to provide advantageous bonding conditions it is proposed that the supporting parts (4) comprise flexurally soft supports (3) made of plastic, onto which the spectacle lenses (2) are glued along a face-side circumferential section.

Abstract: A hinge for spectacles comprising a joint body (5) used as a hinge axle, which body forms a coaxial circumferential groove (7) for receiving an eye (9) of a side jaw (8) and is rotationally rigidly held between two legs (4) of an end (2) of a side, which legs are mutually connected at least at one end and extend on either side of the circumferential groove (7). In order to provide advantageous constructional conditions it is proposed that the joint body (5) consists of two preferably disk-like parts (6) whose abutting surfaces (s) extend transversally to the hinge axle in the zone of the circumferential groove (7).

Abstract: An inclination joint for a spectacle side (3) is described, comprising a joint bar (7) which is guided between the side walls (9) of a receiving pocket (8) of a spectacle side cheek (5) and which is swivelably held in an inclination axle (10) penetrating the receiving pocket (8) and can be latched in various inclination positions by means of a snap-in toothing (12) made of the joint bar (7) on the one hand and rows of teeth (13, 14) associated with the spectacle side cheek (5) on the other hand. In order to ensure favorable constructional conditions it is proposed that on at least one of the side walls (9) of the receiving pocket (8) and the adjacent side surface of the joint bar (7) there is provided a row of teeth (13, 14) each of the snap-in toothing (12) whose teeth are aligned in the direction of introduction (15) of the joint bar (7) into the receiving pocket (8).

Abstract: In a positive-locking connection between a metallic bridge and a moulded article which is injection-moulded from plastic, in particular for spectacles, one end of the bridge engages in the moulded article. In order to provide advantageous constructional conditions, it is proposed that the moulded article form a plug-in receiving means with the engaging end of the bridge which is provided with a wave-like snap-in profiling and can be inserted into the plug-in receiving means under a substantially elastic deformation of a wall profiling of the receiving means which is shaped according to the snap-in profiling of the bridge end.

Abstract: The description relates to a double lens (1) for skiing goggles with a curved outer lens (2) and an equally curved inner lens (3) made of a cellulose propionate foil, arranged at a distance from the outer lens (2), which is connected with the outer lens (2) via a sealing tape (4) at the edge. To ensure a favorable fogging behaviour it is suggested that both the outer lens (2), made of injection-molded polycarbonate, and the inner lens (3), made of a vacuum-formed cellulose propionate foil, are curved spherically and that the outer lens (2) is provided with a hygroscopic coating (7) at its inner side.
